1.1 Introduction
Navratri, or nine divine nights, celebrates the Divine Feminine in the form of Durga, Lakshmi, and Saraswati through worship and devotion. In addition to the nature of outward rituals, the nine sacred nights also provide an opportunity for both internal and outward purification. We create sacred space and the potential through rituals to reset and reconnect with Shakti’s transformative energy through discipline and purity.
The most important aspect of this purification is intention. Intention is supported by the sattvic (pure) space that engages with divine energies. In the Vedic tradition, cow-based products like A2 desi ghee, gomaya (cow dung), and gaumutra (cow urine) are sacred items of spiritual transformation.
Gavyamart has the purest forms of these Gau-based essentials in the hands of a family-based, sustainable option to help you reconnect with the Divine and elevate your Navratri from a ritualistic event to a soul event. In this brief guide, we explain how to use some powerful tools during this auspicious time to create your sacred space.
1.2 Perform Daily Havan with A2 Desi Ghee & Gobar Kanda
A. What is the importance of Havan during Navratri?
Havan, or Agnihotra, is an age-old fire ritual for purifying the environment and inviting heavenly blessings. A daily havan during Navratri greatly enhances spiritual energy, clears negative energy, and amplifies all things energetic in your environment with the presence of the Devi. It is more than a fire symbol; it is a living energy, and it expands your space and mind together.
B. Why select Gavyamart A2 Ghee and Gobar Kanda?
A2 Desi Cow Ghee:
