What is the significance of Navratri? - Sri Sri Ravi Shankar (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsmglSkkcng)

The Significance of Navratri!

"The word ‘Ratri’ means deep rest or relief from three ‘tapas’, three types of fire or botherations- the physical, the subtle, and the conscious. A deep rest can relieve you from all these three botherations.

It’s a time of prayer and rejuvenation. A child is born in nine months. These nine days are like coming out of a mother’s womb once again. Having a new birth."

Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
