Chinmaya International Foundation will be celebrating Navaratri festival at Adi Sankara Nilayam (maternal birth-home of Sri Ādi Śaṅkarācārya) from 12th – 15th October, 2021 led by Swami Sharadananda Sarasvati. The Sri Durgā and Lalitā Tripurasundarī Pujas (6:00 PM IST) will be Live streamed through Chinmaya YouTube Channel daily.
Navaratri is associated with the prominent battle that took place between Durgā and demon Mahishasura, and signifies the victory of good over evil. During this joyous festival of nine nights, the Devi is worshipped as Sarasvati, Mahalakṣmī, Durgā and Lalitā Tripurasundarī. She also has a special form and name on each day.
