Maa Brahmacharini is one of the unmarried forms of Maa Durga.?She is endowed with a Kamandal and a Japa mala in the left and right hands. Dressed in a white saree, Brahmacharini Maa is believed to have appeared in this avatar to perform intense penance (Tapasya) to please Lord Shiva, win his attention, and marry him.
Interestingly, this avatar of the Goddess governs Mangal (Mars), the planet that bestows good fortunes. Therefore, devotees worship her to negate the ill effects of Mangal from their natal chart.
The second day of Navratri is dedicated to Goddess Brahmacharini known for her strict discipline and immense patience. On this day the white Chrysanthemum flower is offered to the Goddess as it symbolizes the purity and peacefulness she attained.
Goddess Brahmacharini's celestial aura, leading devotees to enlightenment, is reflected in royal blue. Wear this colour on Wednesday to participate in Navratri festivities with style and grace. Royal blue represents contentment and prosperity.
Goddess Brahmacharini is a lover of simple food and offerings. Devotees serve a Bhog of sugar and fruits to Goddess Brahmacharini. This increases the longevity of the family members.
Maa Brahmacharini is the second day of Navratri. She is the goddess of penance and austerity, and she bestows spiritual knowledge and power upon her devotees.
Devotees who worship Maa Brahmacharini, get blessed with power, strength, wisdom and knowledge. She is also called as Devi Yogini and Devi Tapasvini. She is one of the most serene and graceful form of Goddess.?
