Navratri is going to start from 25 March. In such a situation, the festival of Navratri is 9 days and the mother is worshiped in these 9 days. In such a situation, today we are going to tell you the method of worship of Navratri and the story that you all should listen to in Navratri.
Pooja method of Navratri - Firstly the Kalash should be established and keep in mind that the Kalash should always be kept on the right side of the idol. Now after this, place a pile of clay or sand on the place where the Kalash is to be installed. After that install the Kalash on it only. Also keep in mind that the pile of soil or sand is slightly more than the urn. We mean that even after placing the urn, there is some space around it. Make sure to make a swastika on the Kalash, and also tie a molly on the upper part of the Kalash and put a few drops of Ganga water in it. After this, fill pure water in it. After this, put a coin of one or two rupees as desired in a Kalash filled with water and put mango pulp in it.

Now place a bowl over it. It can be of soil, brass or any metal. Now keep it intact and on top of it, place a wrapped raw coconut. Keep in mind that red colour is very popular for Matarani, so wrap Chunri also in red colour, sow barley in the soil or sand on which the urn is installed. After this, start the puja by applying tilak of Roli on the forehead. Keep in mind, never worship without applying tilak. Let everyone know that the worship should be anyone, but it should start with the worship of Shri Ganeshji Maharaj. For this reason, in Navratri, you should also salute Ganapati Bappa first. After this, the mantra 'Om M Hrmiy Clin Chamundaiye Vidche'. Chant and start the puja. Now after this, first read Durga Kavach and after this read Argala, Keelak and Night Sukkat. Now, when you have read all these, then do the Aarti of Maa Bhavani by reciting Durga Saptashati and Durga Chalisa. After this, please apologize at the end. Now keep this sequence of worship for 9 days.
Story of Navratri - According to the legend, once Devguru Brihaspati worshipped Brahma that you are very intelligent, Brahma ji. The four are the best knowledge who know the Vedas and who knows the scriptures better than you? O Brahmadev Chaitra, why is the Navratri fasting on the bright fortnight of the month of Ashwin and Ashada? What is the law of observing this fast? What is the consequence of doing this and who did this fast first? Hearing this, Brahma Ji said, O Jupiter, you have asked this very best question. This will lead to the welfare of all beings. Brahmadev said that any person who remembers or meditates Goddess Bhavani, who fulfils all desires, is very lucky. This 9-day fast of Goddess Durga will complete all wishes. Apart from this, all kinds of troubles and troubles of man are also overcome.
Brahmadev says that what is the morale that is not proven by doing this fast which removes all sins. Brahmadev says that O Brihaspati who first performed this fast, now listen to him. Brahma Ji says that in olden times there was a Brahmin in Manohar Nagar named Peethat. He was a unique devotee of Goddess Bhavani. His daughter was Sumati. Which was present in everyday worship with the father. But one day she was busy playing with the children and there the Brahmin worship was done. He was extremely angry when Sumati did not reach the puja. He said that you have committed a crime by not attending the worship of Sumati Matarani. There is no apology for this. He said that now he will marry a leper and poor man only.

Hearing such things from the father's face, Sumati was very upset. He told his father that whatever you think is appropriate. Because whoever is in my destiny can erase it? But I trust Bhagya that he will not do such a big injustice with me. She says the father gets the same results as he does. The Brahmin gods became very angry upon hearing this. She said that okay now look at your destiny with your husband. Sumati was greatly hurt by the father's bitter words. But she had tremendous faith in Goddess Bhagwati. Sumati continued to live with her husband in a bad situation. One day she went into the forest with her husband. But there was no place to stay the night there. The two somehow spent the night under a tree.
Seeing this condition of Sumati, Goddess Bhavani felt pity. She appeared and told Sumati that I am happy with you, daughter. Say whatever is in your heart. Ask for boon whatever you want. Sumati bowed and asked, "Goddess, who are you?" Why are you happy with me Please say please. Goddess Bhagwati said, I am Adishakti. I am theology and Saraswati. When I am happy, I remove the sorrow of all beings. Mother Goddess said that I am very happy with the effects of your former birth. The mother said that in the previous birth she was the wife of Bhil and was a very devoted woman. But one day her husband stole somewhere. Because of this, she and her husband were put in jail. Not only this, food was not given to eat and even water to drink. In this way you remained foodless for 9 days and at that time Navratri was going on. So in this way you also got a nine-day fast. I am happy with the effect of your fast and want to give a boon. Now say whatever you want. The Brahmin bowed to the mother after listening to the loving words of the Goddess.
Goddess, if you are happy on me, then cure my husband's leprosy. Hearing the words of Brahmani, the Mother Goddess cured her husband's leprosy. He also blessed him with a radiant body. In an instant, Brahmin's husband was standing in front of him shining like a moon. On seeing her husband with delicate eyes, she fell at the feet of the Mother Goddess and began to praise. Pleased with his praise, Mother Bhagwati blessed him with a son full of virtues. With this, asked to ask for the groom again. On this, the Brahmini said that if you are happy with me, then tell me the Navratri Puja method so that I can worship duly. Then Bhavani told the Brahmani the method of worshipping Navratri. Along with the Navratri Pujan, the Goddess also told that the donations made during these nine days yield a hundred crores times. Not only this, but fasting also gives fruits like Ashwamedha Yagya.

But keep in mind that during worship, keep the mind pure. Neither think nor do anyone bad. Only then one gets the fruits of the fast. Otherwise, all the pundits are destroyed. Brahma Ji said, O Goddess Brihapati Devi became enthralled by telling Brahmani the worship of Navratri and the fruits. Whichever man pays homage to this fast. He enjoys all the comforts in this world. At the same time salvation is also attained. Brahma Ji said that O Brihaspati, you were blessed to know the significance of this fast of Goddess Bhagwati lasting 9 days. This fast giving fruit like nectar is very fruitful. It is fast to protect all beings. He says that this Bhagwati power is going to follow the whole world. Who has been able to know their effect? Also, who has the power to worship them. But whoever worships the goddess devoutly for these 9 days will be a part of all the pleasures.
