Navaratri is celebrated in honour of the victory that Parashakti (the Goddess of Divine Power) achieved over the evil forces, as described in the Devi Mahatmyam and Devi Bhagavatam. That Primordial Divine Energy, when it is manifested in its Satwik (pure and gentle) aspect is delineated as the great teacher and inspirer, Maha-Saraswati; when it is Rajasik (active and potent), it is the great provider and sustainer, Maha Lakshmi; when it is Tamasik (dull and inactive) but latent as the great dark destroyer and deluder, She is Maha-kali. By means of systematic Sadhana it is possible to tap the inner resources that God has endowed you with and elevate yourselves to the purer and happier realm of the Reality. That Parashakti is in every one as the Kundalini Shakti (dormant spiritual energy), which is capable of destroying the evil tendencies inside the mind when awakened. So dedicate this Navaratri to propitiate the omniscient Mother Goddess, and live in peace and joy.
