Description
The worship and veneration of Mother Durga as Goddess Katyayani on the sixth day of the magical festival Navratri has its very importance. Navratri festival is a special occasion. A time for new projects, aspirations and beginnings, and offering your reverence and dedication to the Goddess Shakti is an auspicious deed.
Mother Durga and her nine avatars or aspects are revered by Hindus devotees across the world. Of the nine forms of Universal Mother, also known as Shakti, Katyayani Mata is worshiped and adored as the 6th form of Navdurga.
According to Hindu tradition religious texts, Goddess Parvati (the Hindu Goddess whose love saved the world) was born at the home of saint Katya, hence, this aspect of Goddess Parvati is known as Katyayani. The Goddess stands for knowledge, the triumph of good over evil, and courage.
Moreover, in Hindu traditions like Tantra and Yoga, the Goddess is ascribed to the sixth chakra – Ajna (also known as the 3rd eye chakra) and Her blessings are invoked by concentrating and meditating on this energy point.
The third eye chakra is associated with light. As you work with this energy vortex, you may want to see the Ajna chakra as access to a cosmic vision, illuminating everything as it is without the filter of your actions from the past, your judgment, or your expectations.
