Importance of Day 9 of Navratri

Mahanavami
9th day of Navaratri
Color :Sky blue.

Devi Siddhidatri, the 8th manifestation of Devi Durga. Worshipped on the 9th day of Navaratri.

Worshippers and Devotees of Devi Durga wonderfully pay homage to Goddess Siddhidatri. The Goddess Siddhidatri is revered to all types of Siddhi (perfection) to her devotees. She appears in red Saree and  rides the Lion.

Maa Siddhidatri grants Her devotees all sorts of achievements and is capable of giving all sorts of occult powers. She is the possessor of 26 different wishes (Siddhis) which She grants Her worshipers. The legend has it that the Lord Shiva got all those Siddhis by worshipping Maa Shakti. With Her gratitude the half body of Lord Shiva became that of Maa Shakti, and therefore he was called as Ardhnarishvar.

This Avtar of Maa Durga removes ignorance and provides knowledge to Her devotees. She is also worshipped by Deva, Gandharva, Asura, Yaksha and Siddha. Maa sits on Kamal (Lotus) and rides on the lion. She has four hands and holds a Gada in the lower right hand,  a Chakra in the upper right hand, a lotus flower in the lower left hand and a Shankha in the upper left hand.

Her glory and power are infinite and worshipping Maa Siddhidatri on the final day (the ninth day) of Navaratri bestows all Siddhis to Her devotees and also marks the successful completion of the Navaratri festival.

Lord Siva obtained all siddhis by the blessings of Siddhidatri that made his half Devi and Glorified him with the name "Ardha Narishwar".
Siddhi makes the person highly eminent and  glorified. After obtaining siddhi human beings observe enhancement in their charisma.

The auspicious ninth day of Navaratri Puja is specially dedicated to Devi Siddhidatri. Her glory is bound less. There is no any type of wish remain after worshipping her solely.

She ends greed and unnecessary temptation towards material comforts.
Pray Goddess Siddhidatri and get her immense blessings.

At a spiritual level Divine Knowledge, Learnings and Meditation brings One into Awareness and Realization of the Ashta Siddhi. This Awareness and Realization brings One into being a Brahma Gyaani - The One Who Merges into Universal Consciousness experiencing Oneness.

Mantra :
OM HREEM SHRI SIDDHIDATARAIYE DURGAAYE NAMAAH

Meaning : I surrender my doubting mind, judging intellect and discriminating ego to dissolve into the Divine Energies of Maa that lead me into Awareness and Realization of the Siddhis.

Jai Maa Siddhidatri.
