Navaratri 4th day
Hey friends, today is the fourth day of Navaratri. We worship ma kushmanda on this day. Do you know what "Kushmanda" means? Kush means little, usma means warmth or light, and "anda" means a seed. So Goddess Kushmanda is the seed and the root of the light. Legend says that when there was nothing in thins Earth and it was dark Adi Shakti took a Form Kushmanda. She gave birth to the five elements and tridevi with just one smile. The five elements are water, fire, air, sky, land. She is everywhere in the universe.
She is believed to give light to the Sun. She is the light of our universe. The tridevi are Saraswati, Lakshmi, and Parvati. Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva grouped because Lord Shiva needed the power to destroy. Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Vishnu grouped because Lord Vishnu needed wealth to run the earth. Goddess Saraswati grouped with Lord Brahma because Lord Brahma needed the knowledge to create the Earth. Maa Kushmanda has 8 hands like Ma Chandraghanta. She rides on a tiger and holds the Sudarsan chakra, Gada, mala, bow and arrow, lotus and a Kalash(pot). So we worship Maa Kushmanda today or on the 4th day of Navaratri
JAI MA KUSHMANDA KI JAI
Happy Navaratri
