Participate in the Navratri Maha Ashtami Maa Durga Special Maa Durga Ashtottaram Shatanamavalli, and Chandi Homam to get rid of negative energies and protection from evil

At times, despite our efforts, life seems blocked by hidden forces, creating challenges in work, relationships, or personal well-being. According to Hindu tradition, such disturbances can result from negative energies or malevolent influences. During these moments, devotees turn to Maa Durga, the Divine Mother and supreme Shakti, whose blessings are believed to protect against evil and cleanse the surroundings of harmful energy.

🕉️ Navratri Maha Ashtami Maa Durga Special 🔱
Maha Ashtami of Navratri is considered one of the most powerful days of the nine-day festival. Falling on the eighth day (Ashtami) of Navratri, it is especially dedicated to Maa Durga in her fierce and protective form, symbolizing the victory of good over evil. On this day, the Goddess is worshipped with great devotion to remove negativity, destroy obstacles, and bless her devotees with courage, strength, and protection.
On Maha Ashtami, when the divine energy of Maa Durga is at its peak, a powerful ritual will be performed - Maa Durga Ashtottaram Shatanamavalli and Chandi Homam. This sacred ceremony is designed specifically to eliminate negative energies, protect devotees from evil, and clear hidden obstacles that hinder progress and well-being.

Through the chanting of the 108 sacred names of Maa Durga (Ashtottara Shatanamavalli), devotees invoke the Goddess’s divine powers, each name representing a unique aspect of her energy. This practice helps align the mind and soul with Maa Durga’s supreme consciousness, cultivating inner strength, clarity, and spiritual focus. The Chandi Homam, performed alongside the chanting, is a sacred fire ritual where offerings like ghee, grains, and herbs are sanctified with powerful Vedic mantras. The fire is believed to carry prayers directly to Maa Durga, purifying the surroundings, dissolving negative energies, and providing protection from evil forces.

Performing these rituals on Maha Ashtami is said to magnify the effects, enhancing the removal of obstacles, safeguarding devotees from negativity, and creating a divine shield of protection. The puja not only strengthens spiritual resilience but also fills the home and mind with positive energy, safety, and peace, ensuring devotees feel supported and empowered by the Goddess.

Through Sri Mandir, you can join this sacred ritual and receive the protective blessings of Maa Durga, safeguarding your life from evil forces and fostering a sense of spiritual and material well-being.

Nav Durga Mandir, Katra, Jammu

Nav Durga Mandir, Katra, Jammu
Katra Tirth Kshetra, nestled in the beautiful Trikuta Hills of Jammu, is renowned for its divine aura, natural beauty, and religious importance. This sacred land is associated with many Puranic legends of Maa Durga, who is regarded as the combined form of Lakshmi, Saraswati, and Kali. About 9 km from Katra lies the Nav Durga Mandir - also known as the Temple of Nine Goddesses - a highly revered pilgrimage site.
The temple is situated inside a natural cave where rock formations depict the nine forms of Maa Durga. Pilgrims visit this holy site to seek the blessings of all nine Goddesses together. During Navratri and Fridays, the sanctity of this place is believed to multiply, making worship especially fruitful. Rituals like Kanya Puja and Durga-Chandi Havan performed here are considered highly auspicious and spiritually rewarding.
