    Hi all,

    As we all know that Navratri is a hindu festival.Its literal meaning is nine nights.During navratri we worship Goddess Durga.
    Navratri is all about Durga pooja and follwind our tradition and culture.
    Get to know here about the significance of Navratri, there is lot to say.
    It is believed that during Navratri Goddess Durga came to deliver justice to the world and for destroying all the devils in this earth.
    We should pray hard until She listens to us and comes down to bring peace again in this world.

    Dear Mami,

    I just read this post today.

    thanks so much for information on Golu, poojas & slokams.

    I am married into a family where KOLU is not followed (for ages).

    Still, I think I can chant the Dyanam slokam every day.

    To let you know, I had joined IL seeing your posts.

    I stumbled upon this forum when I was looking for infomation about Soundarya Lahari.

    I was very happy to see your posts on the Soundarya Lahari slokams, with which I immediately joined as a member.

    Thanks a lot for the wonderful service.
