Aarti performed at Delhi's Jhandewalan Devi Temple on 7th day of Shardiya Navratri

New Delhi [India], October 9 : The occasional morning aarti was performed at Jhandewala Devi Temple in the national capital on the seventh day of Shardiya Navaratri on Wednesday.
Mata Kaalratri is worshipped on the seventh day of Navaratri.
During the nine-day Navratri festival, devotees worship Maa Durga's nine incarnations in order to obtain her blessings. During these nine days, people maintain ritualistic fasts, recite shlokas dedicated to each goddess, wear new clothing, offer bhog, and clean their homes.
Navratri, which means 'nine nights' in Sanskrit, is dedicated to the worship of Goddess Durga and her nine avatars, known as Navdurga. The festival is celebrated with great devotion across India, with rituals and prayers honouring the goddess in her various forms.
Hindus observe four Navratris throughout the year, but only two--Chaitra Navratri and Shardiya Navratri--are widely celebrated, as they coincide with the changing of the seasons.In India, Navratri is celebrated in various ways.
In North India, particularly in Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Bihar, and Madhya Pradesh, the Ramlila, a dramatic re-enactment of scenes from the Ramayana, is organised.
The festival concludes with Vijayadashami, marked by the burning of King Ravana's effigies.
