Navaratri

Navratri Festival

“Navaratri” means 9 nights, and Navaratri, celebrated in the month of Ashwin (September / October), is the longest Hindu festival. Different regions have different themes for celebrating Navaratri, but the underlying commonality is the victory of good over evil.

In North India , the 9 days are filled with continuous chanting from the great epic, “Ramayana”, which tells the story of Rama, Prince of Ayodhya. Here, Navaratri culminates in Dussehra or Vijayadashami, the day Rama kills Ravana, the evil king of Lanka who abducted Rama's wife, Sita. Evenings see the enactment of Ramlila, dance dramas on the life of Rama.

In Bengal , Navaratri is celebrated as Pujo, a celebration of Durga, goddess of power and vitality who is believed to take a new form on each of the nine days. Durga is believed to have slain the demon, Mahishasura, on Dussehra. Rama is also said to have worshipped the goddess, seeking her blessings in order overpower Ravana.

In Gujarat, Navaratri is a cultural festival. Every night men and women of all ages dress up in all their festive finery, and gather in courtyards to do the Garba and Dandiya Raas community dances. Many a romance has sparked off at Navaratri garbas .
