The Hindu festival of Shardiya Navratri honours Devi Durga, the consort of Lord Shiva, and it takes place in the month of Ashwin. The arrival of the Mother Goddess or Devi Maa from her heavenly abode to the land of the living is celebrated by her devotees because she symbolises feminine strength (Shakti). On the first day (Pratipada), Ashwin Shukla Paksha, the celebrations begin.
The festivities begin with a ceremonial Kalash Sthapana or Ghatasthapana.
