🌸 Jai Shrimannarayan!

On the 3rd day of Navratri, we worship Maa Chandraghanta, the third divine form of Goddess Durga. Her name comes from the crescent moon (Chandra) adorning her forehead like a bell (Ghanta). She is the embodiment of courage, clarity, and calm strength — and on this sacred day, she blesses devotees with peace, fearlessness, and grace.

This day marks a significant turning point in Chaitra Navratri, as the energy shifts from penance (Day 2 – Maa Brahmacharini) to active Shakti in the form of Maa Chandraghanta.

🔱 Significance of Navratri Day 3 & Maa Chandraghanta

Maa Chandraghanta rides a tiger, holds powerful weapons in her ten arms, and maintains a gentle smile — symbolizing the perfect balance between spiritual strength and inner peace. She protects her devotees from negative energies, mental fog, and fear. Her blessings awaken our divine intuition.

This is also a powerful day to awaken your inner confidence, and Swami Prabhakar Ji of Jeevan Rahasya Jyotish Paramarsh Kendra emphasizes the importance of atma-shakti (self-power) on this day. As Swami Ji often says:

🪔 Navratri Day 3 Puja Vidhi (Simple & Powerful)

According to Vedic rituals and Swami Ji’s guidance, here’s a simplified puja vidhi for the third day of Navratri:

1. Take a morning bath and wear white or yellow clothes (Navratri Day 3 colour).

2. Place Maa Chandraghanta's image or idol on a clean altar.

3. Offer ghee diya, white lotus or jasmine flower (Navratri 3rd day flower), and fresh fruits.

4. Chant the Navratri Day 3 mantra or the powerful Beej mantra:“ॐ देवी चन्द्रघण्टायै नमः”(108 times for deep connection).

5. Offer kheer or milk-based sweets as bhog — it pleases the Devi and brings sweetness into life.

Swami Ji also advises meditating for 9 minutes after chanting to absorb the divine aura of the goddess into your heart chakra.

💡 Special Remedies for Day 3 (as per Swami Ji)

Swami Prabhakar Ji suggests the following sankalp-based remedies for Day 3:

• For mental peace & clarity: Offer a white jasmine garland to the goddess.

• For marriage & relationship harmony: Light a ghee lamp with a few strands of kesar (saffron) during your evening aarti.

• For removal of fear or anxiety: Chant “ॐ चन्द्रघण्टायै नमः” silently before sleeping.
