Saptami: Harnessing the Power of Goddess Kalaratri in Navratri

Saptami, the seventh day of the Navratri festival, is dedicated to the worship of Goddess Kalaratri, the most ferocious form of Goddess Durga. Worshipping her on this day is believed to eliminate negative energies and bestow calm and courage. The rituals on Saptami include a holy bath, a special puja, offering of red flowers and clothes, recitation of mantras, and prayers. In addition, Kanya Puja, the worship of nine young girls representing the nine forms of Goddess Durga, is also performed on this day. Saptami marks the beginning of the final phase of Navratri, leading up to Dussehra and Diwali, and is a day of intense spiritual activities and celebrations.
