Bad Hindu :(

[Maya3]

Hello Mayaji,

Please don't call yourself or anyone bad hindu just for not knowing the order the three great Goddesses worshiped in Navaratri.

Although all days are for worshiping the three great Goddesses, but there are some days which are specially dedicated to the Goddesses for worshiping.

As described, Navaratri celebrations are often divided into three sets of three days each dedicated respectively to Maha Kali, Maha Lakshmi, and Maha Saraswati:

• First Three Days: The Goddess is celebrated as Kali, the Goddess who takes away darkness. This is meant to destroy all of our negative tendencies. Please refer the Maha Kali puja book.

• Second Three Days: Devi’s form is celebrated as Maha Lakshmi, the Goddess who grants an abundance of wealth, including spiritual wealth. Please refer the Maha Lakshmi puja book.

• Final Three Days: The Goddess is worshiped as Saraswati, the Goddess of Wisdom. Saraswati bestows knowledge success in the life. Please refer the Maha Saraswati puja book.

Thanks.

I was being sarcastic.

That gets lost in language, as do idioms. I think many of us have to be forever careful when talking with people whose English is the second language, both here, and in real. There are very few people who readily admit they didn't understand.

True,
I should be more careful. That is a good point.

English is my second language too.

Namaste,

No one celebrates Navarātri with the fervor and exuberance as the people in Gujarāt do.

Raas Garba is our speciality. Lord Shrī Krishna taught us Raas Garba personally. Furthermore, he loved the land so much that he built Dwarka. Where is Dwarka? In Gujarat, my friends. Hehe.

Sorry, but I had to pull out this one to set the record straight. Jk. Jk. Jk. Hehe.
