Shardiya Navratri or Navratri 2022 began yesterday. This year Shardiya Navratri festival's nine-day worship of Goddess Durga is going to start on September 26 (Monday) and last till October 5, 2022 (Wednesday). Ardent devotees and those belonging to the Shakti sect observe a fast and worship Navdurga (the nine forms of Durga) of feminine power.
After worshipping Maa Shailputri on Day 1, we worship Maa Brahmacharini on the second day of Navratri 2022 (Dwitiya Tithi). Therefore, let's take a look at the Maa Brahmacharini Puja Vidhi, Shubh Muhurat, Mantra, Bhog and Aarti lyrics.
Sharadiya Navratri starts from September 26 and ends on October 5.
October 1- Maha Shashsti
October 2- Maha Saptami
October 3- Maha Ashtami
October 4- Maha Navami
October 5- Maha Dashmi
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.
Pray to Lord Ganesha (Vighnaharta) and seek his blessings for a hurdle-free Navratri vrat. Light a lamp (with ghee or mustard or sesame oil) and place it on the altar near the Goddess' idol/image. Then, invoke Maa Brahmacharini by chanting the following Mantras.
Goddess Brahmacharini is believed to like Red which is usually adorned by devotees of this day. It is believed to be the colour of love and prosperity.
You may offer Panchamrit for Bhog. Then offer fruits, a whole coconut, bananas, paan and supari, haldi and kumkum. Conclude the Brahmacharini puja by singing the Aarti and offer your salutations to the Goddess by lighting camphor. After the puja, distribute the prasad.
