Thousands of pilgrims began to throng the mandapa on Sunday morning. The whole premises are resonating with the music of dhaka, bells, the sound of conch shells, and the sound of flutes. Apart from this, worship of Goddess Durga is done in the morning in the mandap and Chandipath. Maha Ashtami Puja starts at 6.10 a.m. Pushpanjali is done at 10:30 a.m. Kumari Puja starts at 11 a.m. Shatakshi Goswami became a virgin mother. His father&#8217;s name is Shyamal Goswami, and his mother is Rita Goswami. Shatakshi Goswami is a student of the Play Group at Noble School and College in the capital. He was born in 2018.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">According to the scriptures, human respect, respect for and dignity of women, and worship of God are the teachings of Kumari Puja. The trinity in which the universe revolves in cycles of creation, stability, and rhythm is in the form of seeds in Kumari. It is in this belief that Hindus worship Kumari as Goddess Durga on Ashtami. Before the puja, the virgin is bathed and decorated as a goddess in a new red saree, jewelry, anklets, flower garlands, and ornaments. After sitting in the seat of Goddess Puja with a lotus flower, she is worshiped with mantras and praises.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #252525; text-align: justify;\">Vihit Puja will also be held in the morning of Mahanavami on Monday, and Sandhi Puja will be held in the evening. Later on Tuesday morning, after the dedication of the mirror, the Durgotsava ceremony will end with the dedication of the idol.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Crime Desk: Hindus worshiped Goddess Durga as a virgin on Maha Ashtami in religious solemnity and a festive atmosphere.
