Kalparambh Story

Learn the spiritual story and meaning behind Kalparambh, the first step of Durga Puja where devotees mark the holy beginning with rituals and prayers.

Kalparambh Ritual Story

Before attacking Lanka, Lord Rama worshipped Goddess Adishakti for nine days. During this period, known as Dakshinayan, it was believed that gods and goddesses were resting in deep sleep, including Goddess Adishakti. To wake her, Lord Rama performed the Kalparambh ritual on the sixth day of his worship. Through this ritual, the goddess awoke, appeared before Lord Rama, and blessed him with victory. It is believed that this marked the beginning of the tradition of performing Kalparambh on the sixth day of Navratri. In the northeastern states of India, Navratri is considered to begin from the sixth day of Ashwin Navratri, known as Maha Sashti. This day is also called Bilva Nimantran and Akal Bodhan in these regions. The celebration continues through Maha Saptami, Maha Ashtami, and Maha Navami.
