Method🔹*
*🌹 First, take a clay pot for sowing barley. Lay a layer of soil in this container. Now spread a layer of barley. Then spread a layer of soil on top. Now spread another layer of barley. Lay around among the barley so that the barley does not press to the bottom of the urn. Then spread a layer of soil on top. Now tie the mauli on the neck of the urn. Write Om and Swastika with a roll on the top of the urn. Now fill the urn with pure water, Ganga water up to the throat. Add whole betel nut, durva and flowers to the urn. Put a little perfume in the urn. Put Pancharatna in the urn. Put some coins in the urn. Place five leaves of ashoka or mango in the urn. Now close the mouth of the urn with the lid. Fill the lid with rice.*
*🌹 Wrap red cloth on coconut and wrap mauli. Now place the coconut on the urn. Keeping the coconut face downwards increases the enemy. Keeping the coconut face upwards increases diseases, while keeping the coconut face eastwards destroys wealth. Therefore, the coconut should always be placed in such a way that its face is towards the seeker. Note that the mouth of the coconut is at the end where it is attached to the branch of the tree.*
*🌹Now lift the urn and place it in the middle of the barley container. Now invoke all the gods and goddesses in the urn. “O all gods and goddesses and Maa Durga, please come here for nine days. Now light the lamp and worship the urn. Show the incense urn. Offer garlands to the urn. Offer fruits and sweets to the urn. Offer perfume to the urn. After the installation of the urn, the post of Maa Durga is installed.*
*🌹 On the first day of Navratri, a wooden post should be established. It should be purified with Ganga water and a beautiful red cloth should be spread over it. It should be placed on the right side of the urn. After that, a metal idol of Maa Bhagwati or a framed photo of Navdurga should be placed. In the absence of an idol, install the Yantra containing the Navarna Mantra. Maa Durga should fly red chunari. Pray to Maa Durga “O Maa Durga, please stay in this post for nine days.” Then first show the lamp to the mother. Then offer incense, garlands and perfume. Offer fruits, sweets.*
*🌹 It is of special importance to observe the fast of Maa Bhagwati for nine days in Navratri and to recite Durga Saptashati every day. Every wish is fulfilled. Relieves all troubles.*
*🌹 On the first day of Navratri, the unbroken light is lit which remains burning for nine days. Placing “Rice” under the lamp keeps the grace of Maa Lakshmi and placing “Saptadhanya” removes all kinds of troubles.*
*🌹 It is considered best to worship the mother by sitting on the seat of “red blanket”
*🌹 Every day of Navratri, one should offer a garland of flowers to Mother Goddess. Every day, one should light a ghee lamp (gold, silver and bronze lamps are best used for worshiping the mother) and offer sweets to the goddess. Man Bhagwati is especially fond of perfume/perfume.*
*🌹 Every day of Navratri, burn the tune of the stick and offer ghee, Havan materials, batasha, a pair of cloves, pan, betel nut, camphor, google, cardamom, raisins, lotus.*
* For Lakshmi attainment, place 7 petals of pan and rose in Navratri and offer them to Goddess Maa. *
*🌹 Pratipada Tithi (first day of Navratri) on the mother of ghee. Bhog. This patient gets rid of suffering and the body is healthy. On the Pratipada date of Chaitra Navratri, Maa Shailaputri is worshipped.*
*🌹 Special worship of girls is done every day. According to Srimad Devi Bhagavatam Purana, “Ekaika poojayet kanyamekavrdhya tathaiva cha. Twice or three times or nine times each.” That is, worship one Kumari daily or worship one Kumari every day in increasing order or doubly or triple every day and either worship nine Kumari girls every day.*
*🌹 If a person is unable to perform pooja every day till Navratri, he should perform pooja on Ashtami Tithi in particular. In ancient times, the terrible goddess Bhadrakali, who destroyed the sacrifice of Daksha, appeared on the eighth day with crores of yoginis.*
