Navratri: Significance

Navratri is a nine-night Hindu festival honoring the Divine Goddess's nine forms (Durga, Lakshmi, and Saraswati), celebrating the victory of good over evil and the rejuvenation of spiritual energy (shakti). The festival is a time for spiritual purification, introspection, and invoking divine blessings for protection, prosperity, and the vanquishing of inner darkness.
