The 7 Navdurga of Navratri include Maa Kalratri, a representation of fierce energy. She has an aggressive appearance, characterized by dark colors, a fiery tongue, and red eyes. Maa Kalratri rides a donkey and wields a thunderbolt (Khadag) and a sword in her hands. Her purpose is to destroy darkness, which symbolizes negativity, fear, ignorance, ego, illusions, and all forms of darkness. Her incarnation aims to eliminate powerful demons that disrupt the balance of cosmic energy.
Devotees who worship Maa Kalratri gain clarity, enlightenment, and wisdom. She removes deep-rooted fears, alleviates stress and emotional imbalances, and supports spiritual growth. Through self-realization, she protects her followers from evil influences.
May Maa Kalratri bless us with courage, knowledge, and freedom from fear. Jai Maa Kalratri!ππΊπ
