Navaratri has always held a special significance in the Indian festival diaspora, not only because of the various festivities & cultures across different geographical locations but the message it inherently conveys to every being by celebrating these magnificent 9 days.
We at PUNO aspire to take these learnings ahead & would like to highlight how we at Team PUNO get inspired by each of these days to envision our path ahead :
This is the day when one can realize their being & connect to their source. These nine days of celebrations are meant to take one inwards through their inner resilient journey to connect with their soul.
As we travel towards our inner consciousness in this journey, we are inspired to make a deliberate effort to innovate ourselves and grab the opportunity to evolve as a better person tomorrow.
Maa Durga or the Mother is divine in her full form; these nine days as we celebrate & worship the divinity this is indeed the best time to connect with the divine power & soul & re-energise our soul with the divine connection
The essence of Life is celebrated in the form as it is; the beauty of life lies in its unpredictability & the odds where these beautiful experiences carve out to be the individual that shapes our identity. These nine days are the quest to revisit & reinvent the core beauty of life.
Goddess Durga the supreme soul is also worshiped as the deity of Wisdom she is the mother of all the 6 systems, the 6 schools of knowledge – Nyaya, Vaisheshika, Sankhya, Yoga, Vedanta, and Uttara Mimamsa; 6 Angas or limbs of the Vedas, called the Shadangas exhibiting the immense resource & pool of knowledge.
Once we enlighten our wisdom by reconnecting with our roots & establishing a divine connection with the deity herself, our subconscious mind is then filled with the positivity & the intuitiveness to inhibit the best of mother nature & proclaim a life filled with conscious efforts & knowledge.
Finding solace in the presence of thyself is one of the highest forms of well-being one can achieve; by practicing & worshiping the deity these 7 days, one can feel the intrinsic peace & a sense of completeness in their holistic approach.
Once you feel at peace & contended you can easily be liberated from your shortcomings by paying attention to their positives & working upon them instead of cribbing & repenting over the shortcomings; this is only possible when all these 8 days one has practiced their karma in accordance to the preachings of Maa Durga.
As we celebrate these 9 days of the essence of the Goddess & her preachings thereby her victory over the evil; the journey of these nine days reflects upon the individual journey of Growth & renaissance we have witnessed in our lives as individual beings.
Conclusion:
Vijaya Dashmi the conclusion of these divine 9 days is the sacred symbol of perishing the evil; the good winning over the bad; and in the same ethos & vibrance, we at Team PUNO welcome these divine 9 days of Navratri to fill our lives with poise, wisdom & intellect to become a better human being of tomorrow.
