Durga Puja

September 27, 2017

Durga Puja

Durga PujaDussehra (Dassera) is one of the significant Hindu festivals, celebrated with much joy in the entire country.

The occasion marks the occassion of Lord Rama and brother Lakshman approaching Mother Durga to ask her for her blessings in His planned attack on the demon Ravana. It is therefore considered that the Supreme Personality of Godhead's approaching her for blessings to remove material impediments to His spiritual goals should be the approach of the humble devotee of the Lord to clinche the important triumph of Lord Rama over the demon king, Ravana, the victory of good over evil.
