The word “Navratri” comes from two words – “Nav” meaning Nine (9) and “Ratra” meaning “Night”. The celebration of this festival stretches for 9 nights and thus the name Navratri is given. Each day of Navratri is for an incarnation of Goddess Durga. For these 9 days, people worship 9 different incarnations of the Goddess. People believe that each of these 9 goddesses has immense power and they all combines to form Maa Durga. This Navratri occurs five times a year as mentioned below: Vasanta Navratri – March–April  Ashada Navratri (also known as Gayatri Navratri) – June–July  Sharada Navratri (also known as Sharad Navratri) – September–October  Poushya Navratri – December–January  Magha Navratri – January–February Navaratri holds deep symbolism and offers devotees a profound opportunity for spiritual growth and renewal, also refers metaphorically to the spiritual darkness of ignorance within the mind and intellect that keeps us trapped in illusion.

Embarking on a spiritual journey is a transformative and enlightening experience. In the hustle and bustle of our modern lives, it's easy to lose sight of the deeper dimensions that make us human. The call to embark on a spiritual adventure is not a distant whisper; it's a beckoning from within, urging us to explore the vast landscapes of our own consciousness. Here's a guide to initiate your spiritual journey. Self-Reflection and Awareness Begin your spiritual adventure by taking a pause and turning your gaze inward.

  Mastery in the spiritual realm is a lifelong journey of personal growth, self-discovery, and inner transformation. It's not a title of a master one simply bestows upon oneself; it's a state of being that is recognized by others due to our wisdom, compassion, and spiritual insights. What you are after is within yourself.  Let us look into a parable by Sri Ramakrishna who emphasized an interior approach to life's problems- A man wanted a smoke. He went to a neighbour's house to light his charcoal. It was the dead of night and the household was asleep. After he had knocked a great deal, someone came down to open the door. At sight of the man he asked, "Hello! What’s the matter?" The man replied, "Can't you guess? You know how fond I am of smoking. I have come here to light my charcoal." The neighbour said, "Ha! Ha! You are a fine man indeed! You took the trouble to come and do all this knocking at the door! Why, you have a lighted lantern in

  In the intricate tapestry of human history, certain patterns and symbols have transcended time and culture, carrying profound meanings that touch the realms of the physical and the metaphysical. Sacred geometry, an ancient and intricate discipline, is one such key to unlocking the secrets of our universe's design.  While spirituality often delves into the mysteries of existence and the metaphysical, science seeks to decipher the natural world through empirical observation and logical reasoning. Despite these apparent differences, both spirituality and science employ sacred symbols as vehicles to express complex concepts, inspire wonder, and bridge the gap between the known and the unknown. By acknowledging the potential for alignment between these seemingly separate spheres in this blog post, we open the door to new insights and transformative possibilities.
