Happy Navratri to Everyone!!!

I am Punjabi Hindu. We start the Navratri with doing a Jyot and Prayer in front of Maa Durga picture or statue in our home Temple. We fast for seven days and pray every morning and evening. India we used to go to temple everyday, but in Canada we go on Tuesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. On eight day, we make BHOG ( Pershad: in punjabi, its called Hatwa, Channa and Puri). We give pershad to little gilrls called kanjaka. After doing pooja with Kanjaka, we eat pershad. Some punjabi complete fast on Ashtami and others complete on Ram Navami according to their family tradition. Tenth day, we take our kids to the temple to celebrate Dushehara or sometimes we celebrate on the weekend. Statue of Ravanna is burned with fire crackers etc.
I think every one celebrated little different but the meaning behind is same to Worship the Goddesses in various forms and celebrated the victory of good over evil.

May Lord Rama and Maa Durga bless everyone with happiness, health, wealth and prosperity.

Enjoy the Navratri Everyone!!!
