The Indian system of beliefs refers to the female aspect of divinity as Shakti – or the manifestation of energy. Worship of the mother Goddess is prevalent throughout India. The nine days festival of Navaratri, a season of rejoicing and celebration, is associated with the worship of the mother Goddess Durga, also known as Ambamata or Kaalimata. This year it started on today 30 sep.
The 9 nights festival of Navratri begins on the first day of Ashwina of the bright fortnight. Seeds are sown, sprouting is watched, the planets are consecrated, and on the 8th and 9th days, Goddess Durga, Vijayashtami and Mahanavami are worshipped.
The day after Navratri i.e. the 10th day after Ashwina, is Dussera which celebrates the victory of lord Rama over Ravana. Ravana is burnt in effigy, often giant dummies of Ravana stuffed with fireworks are shot with arrows until they blow up before a large, applauding audience.
