The Sharad Navratri begins on September 19, 2009 and ends on September 27
The nine-day festival of Navratri, or Navaratri, in Hindu religion is dedicated to the nine manifestations of Goddess Durga.
Most devotees take only a single meal during the day. Non-vegetarian food and alcohol is totally aabstained. At the same time, some very unsusual delicacies which are far from our daily cuisine appear in our kitchen and our palette. Whereas some devout people live on just milk and fruits only during these nine days. ;)
Have fun, while we celebrate the auspicious days…and the The Navratri (The Nine Nights)
Goddess Durga is worshipped during the first three days,
Goddess Lakshmi for the next three days, and
Goddess Saraswathi during the last three days.
