Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared a touching moment of devotion on Sunday, bowing before Devi Maa and seeking her blessings for all Indians. In a post on X that captured deep spiritual energy, Modi prayed for everyone’s well-being, bravery, and inner power.
“Salutations at the feet of Devi Ma! I pray to her that she blesses everyone with indomitable courage and excellent health. May her grace infuse self-strength into everyone’s life,” Modi wrote.
Earlier that day, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath joined the celebrations by offering prayers at the Maa Pateshwari Devi temple to mark the start of Shardiya Navratri.
This lively Hindu festival lasts nine nights and honors the divine power of Goddess Durga. It falls in the lunar month of Ashwin and brings communities together through intense worship, colorful rituals, and fun cultural events. Devotees fast, sing bhajans, and dance to Garba and Dandiya beats, filling the air with joy and unity.
Shardiya Navratri holds special meaning for Hindus, with grand festivities across the country. On the seventh day, people focus on Maa Kaalratri, a powerful form of Goddess Durga known as the destroyer of demons, evil spirits, and negativity. Worshipping her brings light to dark times and helps chase away fears.
