[quote=Anonymous]We have been invited to some parties, DH didn't want throw one because we are saving money for the holiday season. So my home celebration mostly involves puja and meditation. For non-Hindus, the quick and dirty summary: - Navaratri is "Nine Divine Nights of Goddess Durga", a 10-day festival in the Hindu calendar - Durga is the ferocious, demon-slaying form of the Hindu Mother Goddess - In mythology, she spends nine days and nine nights killing demon armies to protect the gods; day 10 is her victory march - the ten-day period is considered auspicious; prayers to the goddess will be answered, problems in your life will be resolved, etc. [/quote]
