For each of the Nine Nights of the Goddess, we celebrate and worship the forms of Goddess Durga with love and surrender. The first day, we chant the name of Durga as Shailaputri- She who is the daughter of the Mountains- You can avail of the energies of the mantra by sitting in a quiet space allowing for 15 minutes of no interruptions, close your eyes and watch your breath as you listen to the mantra. You may visualize her at the 3rd -eye chakra or the middle of the forehead while you listen to the mantra while mentally offering her flowers, incense, lamp, sweets, clothing etc. as a sign of your devotion.

Navarathri or the Nine Nights of the Goddess is celebrated in different traditions across India. IT is celebrated at the transition of seasons to worship the Divine Feminine as the power and force behind the rhythms and cycles of life. Durga is the combined force of Kali, Lakshmi and Saraswati coming together and this force is easily accessible to all of us if we approach Her with reverence like a child approaching its Mother whose primary focus is to protect, nourish and support the child at all costs.

This 4 minute episode is a brief exploration of what triggers you on a daily basis where you see a behavior or reaction that is based on a belief, conditioning or fear that is acquired or inherited. Beliefs can be changed by a shift in perspective, when we look at the situation for exactly what it is. The first step towards personal transformation is to acknowledge and examine your biases, beliefs and triggers and how your reactions are fear-based rather than a response based on true understanding.
