Magha Navaratri — Gupt Navaratri–by Dr. Anjna Agarwal
Navratri is a Hindu festival celebrated for nine days worshipping the various forms of Durga. The Navratri festival is celebrated four times in a year: Vasanta Navratri, Ashadh Navratri, Sharad Navratri and Magha Navratri. These are further divided into Prakat and Gupt Navaratri. From the above mentioned Navaratri, Vasanta and Sharad Navratri are Prakat Navaratri; while Ashadh and Magha Navaratri are called Gupt Navaratri.
Magha Navaratri: Magha Navratri, also referred as Gupta Navratri, is nine days dedicated to the nine forms of Shakti (Mother Goddess) in the month of Magha (January–February). Magha Navaratri is observed during the Magha Shukla Paksha (waxing phase of moon). Magh Navratri in …1 starts on February 4 and ends on February 12.
Gupt Navaratri is very powerful and yield quick results, if any one chants either of these mantras with specific purposes secretly. Rules are simple. A person has to perform a ‘Panchopar Puja’ before Goddess Durga and communicate one’s wishes and surrender oneself totally. Chant the mantras at least 108 times before an earthen lamp. Recitations of mantra can be done from either of these Holy Navaratri days. People whose marriage is delaying must chant related mantra jaap during Gupt Navratri to get desired results.
