Katra Tirth Kshetra Special Katra Tirth Durga Nav Chandi Pujan and Havan for Protection from Negativity, Enemies and Evil Eye
This auspicious Friday, dedicated to Goddess Durga, creates a rare and spiritually charged moment to connect with the supreme power of Adi Shakti. Scriptures say that rituals performed on this powerful alignment help in removing deep-rooted negativity, obstacles, and harmful influences from one’s life.
This sacred ritual is being performed at the spiritually potent Katra Teerth Kshetra, nestled in the peaceful Himalayan foothills. Long revered as a land blessed by the presence of the Divine Mother, this ancient tirtha is known for radiating the powerful shakti of Durga and her nine forms. It is believed that the energy of Adi Shakti is thought to remain ever-present here. The serene energy of this Kshetra makes it an ideal place for invoking the blessings of the Goddess during the Nav Chandi Homam.
According to the Markandeya Purana, when powerful demons threatened the universe, the gods combined their energies and created a supreme feminine force. From this divine light emerged Goddess Durga, the radiant and undefeatable form of Adi Shakti.
To protect the world and guide humanity through dark and difficult times, she took on nine powerful forms, each with its unique purpose:
Shailaputri – strength and stability
Brahmacharini – discipline and devotion
Chandraghanta – courage and daring
Kushmanda – creative energy and positivity
Skandamata – protection and wisdom
Katyayani – power to fight injustice
Kalaratri – remover of fear and ignorance
Mahagauri – peace and purification
Siddhidatri – spiritual powers and higher knowledge
In the Nav Chandi Puja and Homam, all these nine forms are worshipped through sacred mantras, fire offerings, and chanting the Durga Saptashati, also called the Chandi Path. This ancient text has 700 verses from Devi Mahatmyam praising how the Goddess defeated demons like Mahishasura, Shumbha, and Nishumbha. Listening to or chanting these verses during the Homam is said to awaken Shakti, both within and around you.
This powerful ritual helps remove bad karma, clear negative energy, and purify both mind and body. It can bring many positive changes in your life, such as:
👉Removal of negativity, fear, and harmful influences
👉Protection from enemies and the evil eye
👉Healing of physical and emotional pain
👉Restoration of peace, clarity, and well-being
👉Strengthened connection with divine feminine energy
Organized by Sri Mandir, participate in this sacred puja, being performed at the powerful Katra Teerth Kshetra in Jammu and Kashmir.

The sanctity of the site is especially heightened during the festival of Navratri. It is believed that worshiping Maa Shakti during this period brings immense spiritual benefits. As a result, devotees perform special rituals here, with Kanya Pujan and Durga-Chandi Havan being considered especially auspicious and fruitful.
⭕ Note: This is not the main Vaishno Devi temple, and this puja will be conducted at the Nav durga temple located at the foot of the hills. Performing a puja here on this sacred land is equally beneficial.
