नवरात्रि की शुरुआत और महत्व

Video narration

Navratri ki angrezi tareekh har saal badalti hai, to iski shuruaat aakhir tay kaise hoti hai? Angrezi calendar mein kabhi yeh pehle aati hai, kabhi baad mein, par iska matlab niyam badalna nahi. Do pramukh Navratriyan hain: Chaitra ki aur Sharadiya, jo Ashwin mahine mein aati hai. Dono shuru hoti hain apne-apne mahine ke Shukla paksh ki pehli tithi se. Ise Shukla Pratipada kehte hain: Amavasya ke baad chaand badhne wale paksh ka pehla din. Hindu panchang Chandrama aur Surya ki ganana par chalta hai, isliye angrezi calendar mein tareekh har saal badal jaati hai. Tareekh badalti hai, niyam nahi. Yeh nau raatein Devi ki aaradhana ke liye hain; kai paramparaon mein yeh parv Mahishasur par Durga ki vijay, yani burai par achchai ki jeet, se bhi juda hai. Isliye Chaitra aur Sharadiya Navratri apne-apne mahine ki Shukla Pratipada se shuru hoti hain, Devi ki aaradhana aur kai paramparaon mein unki vijay ka parv.
