New Delhi: Like any other Hindu festival, Navratri has a spiritual message for its observers.
The festival signifies power, wealth, prosperity and knowledge. Nava means “nine” and “ratri” means night.
During the nine-night long festival of Navratri the supreme female cosmic power or Goddess Shakti is worshipped in her variously manifested forms as Durga, Laxmi and Saraswati. All three Goddess are the incarnations of Goddess Shakti (the Mother Goddess).
