Dear devotees,
The most auspicious 9 days for Durga starts from tomorrow. Each of us should be considered very blessed to be part of this navarathiri celebration and do our stuthi and prayers to our mother. Only if we are blessed in our previous births, we will even think about worshiping Devi. From that perspective, I guess we all are blessed. Mahaperiyava and other Periyavas have spoken in great volumes about the importance of Navathiri. All acharyas are the devi upasakas of highest order. Getting blessing from our acharyas/gurus on these 9 days is extremely powerful.
While doing our worship, please do not attempt to chant any mantra given by others. Like I have always said, many of the devi mantras require proper initiation including reading Devi Mahatmiyam. It is much safer to do ashothrams and stutis/slokas on Her. Once again, wish you all a very happy navarathiri and let Durga Mata’s blessings be with us all.
Aum Mathreye Namaha!
