Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday sought blessings on the second day of the auspicious Navratri festival.
“We bow to you, Maa Brahmacharini. Bless us with kindness and compassion. From you we derive strength to spread joy and serve our society,” Prime Minister Narendra Modi tweeted.
On the second day of Navaratri, Hindus worship Brahmacharini, whose name means “one who practices devout austerity.” She enlightens us in the magnificent embodiment of Durga with great powers and divine grace. Brahmacharini holds a rosary in her right hand, representing the special Hindu prayers recited in her honour, and a water utensil in her left hand, symbolizing marital bliss. Hindus believe she endows happiness, peace, prosperity, and grace upon all devotees who worship her. She is the way to emancipation, called Moksha.
