The 3 phases of Navratri

Sep 23, 2025

Phase 1 - First three days

Maa Durga (Strength and Courage)

The journey begins with cleansing and protection. Durga represents shakti (divine energy) that destroys inner enemies like fear, greed, arrogance and laziness. These three days are about removing negativity, both within us and around us

Phase 2 - Middle three days

Maa Lakshmi (Prosperity and Abundance)

Once negativity is removed, the heart becomes pure and ready to receive blessings. Lakshmi represents abundance and harmony - not only in wealth but in virtues like kindness.

These three days symbolize growth - where positive energy begins to flourish in our lives

Phase 3 - Last three days

Maa Saraswati (Wisdom and Knowledge)

Strength and prosperity have meaning only when guided by wisdom. Saraswati represents knowledge, clarity and higher consciousness. 

The final three days are about seeking the wisdom to use power and wealth in the right way

This completes the spiritual journey

Navratri is structured like a step-by-step transformation

  1. Remove the bad (Durga)
  2. Then welcome the good (Lakshmi)
  3. Finally, seek wisdom to guide it all (Saraswati)

These 9 days mirror how we grow as human being
