Jay Ambe friends,
According to Hinduism and Panchang, there are four Navaratris in a year – Maha, Chaitri, Ashadhi and Aso month i.e. Shardiya. Maha and Ashadhi Navratri are called Gupta Navratri. Of the four Navaratris, Shardiya Navaratri is the main festival of Hinduism. The festival of worship of Goddess Shakti is starting from October 17 this year. Given the current situation in Corona, the government has not allowed to do Garba, but in a way, it seems that Mataji will be truly worshiped this year. According to the Hindu calendar, Navratri begins with the Shukla Paksha Ekam of the Ashwin month which continues till Navmi. Nine forms of Maa Durga are worshiped in Navratri and devotees fast for nine days. On the first day of Navratri, where it is the ritual to perform Ghatsthan in auspicious moments, the fast is opened on the last day by worshiping the spinsters. So let us know how to do Ghatsthapana at auspicious time at home …

Red cloth, earthenware, barley, earthenware, water-filled kalash, reeds, cardamom, cloves, camphor, whole rice, whole arecanuts, coins, five leaves of asopalav or nagarvel, quince, chundadi, kanku, flowers, garland and decoration of mataji.
If any of these things are not available then there is no need to have doubts in the mind because Mataji is spirit hungry. Don’t be discouraged if nothing is possible. Maa can also be pleased by performing Mansi Puja with the same ritual.
