    Navaratri Navadurga Sadhana 2019 [This year in the US Navaratri lasts only 8 days, as there is no edited by official Dwitiya Tithi (second lunar day). So the sadhanas for Swami Bhajanananda Saraswati both Shalaputri and Brahmacharini should be done today.] PRATIMA TITHI Devi Shailaputri Sunday, September 29th After Her self-immolation in Her incarnation as Sati, Para- Shakti took birth as Parvati, the daughter of the Himalaya. In Sanskrit shaila means mountain, due to which the Goddess is known as Shailaputri, the daughter of the mountain. She is visualized as riding the bull Nandi and holding a trident and lotus. She wears the crescent moon in Her hair. She resides within our body at the base of spine (mulladhara chakra), rules the earth element (prithvi-tattva), and the moon (Chandra). She is invoked on the first day of Navaratri (pratima tithi). Her blessings inspire us to begin our spiritual journey and gives us encouragement along the way. Japa Mantra: oṁ hrīṁ śrī śaila-putrī durgāyai namaḥ Pranam Mantra: oṁ himācala sutānātha samstute parameśvari rūpam dehi jayam dehi jaśo dehi dvisho jahi Shiva, the consort of the daughter of the Himalayas, praises You with hymns, Oh Supreme Goddess. Reveal Yourself. Grant victory. Grant success. Remove ill-feeling.” Devi Brahmacharini Brahmacharini is the form of Para-Shakti as young Parvati during Her practice of severe austerities to attain Lord Shiva as Her husband. She is the ideal disciple and sadhaka. She is visualized as barefooted, holding a pot of holy water and a mala of rudraksha beads. She resides in our body in the reproductive center (svadhistana-chakra), rules the water element (apas-tattva), and the planet Mars (Mangal).

In this book we are presenting to you the auspicious fast of “Shree Swasthani Mata Ji”. It is as under: Maa Sati, after leaving her corporal form, took birth as Parvati as the daughter of Giriraj Himalaya and his wife Maneka. Parvati used to worship Lord Shiva by making a Shivling (the holy phallus) of sand with a desire to attain him as her husband. When her marriage was fixed with Lord Vishnu, on insistence of sage Narada, she left her home to meditate in the forest. Lord Shiva showed her the glimpse of his divine spirit and suggested to her that only Lord Vishnu can show her the way to marry as per her desire. Then Maa Parvati worshipped Lord Vishnu who in turn came to bless her. Lord Vishnu asked– O Parvati! I am happy with your devotion. Ask for anything you desire. Maa Parvati replied– O God! You know that I worship Shiva as my husband since my childhood.
