2026 Celebrating Navarātri Festival: “Major Incarnations of the Mother of this Universe were manifested. They were manifested with a purpose. That purpose is to protect Her bhaktas, Her disciples, Her children.”
"Today, we have gathered here to do the Navarātri Pūjā.
There were nine times when the Major Incarnations of the Mother of this Universe were manisfested [manifested]. They were manifested with a purpose. That purpose is to protect Her bhaktas, Her disciples, Her children.
This was a binding love. She could not escape it. Mother's Love is binding. She cannot escape it. And She has to manifest it, work it out, and give that protection to all Her children.
This protection in the modern times has taken another form.
In those days, the evil was trying to harm, to destroy the people who were righteous, who were bhaktas, who were doing good things, who wanted to lead a very religious life. So to save them, She incarnated. To protect them, She incarnated. But they knew what was good, they knew what was wrong. And they wanted to preserve their good life, their precious life. They didn't care for money, they didn't care for power, but just they wanted their life, means they wanted to be alive to worship the Goddess. And when they were troubled or harmed or destroyed by these evil forces, She had to manifest.
But in modern times, it's become very complicated, as the modern times are complicated. First of all, in the mind, in the lifestyle, in the society, of good human beings, righteous human beings, fear of the wrong has entered. "

"So to recognize Me, what should we do? If we recognize, then you are protected.
...... if you could recognize Me, to understand Me, that I am Divine Personality. It’s an Incarnation. That’s all the Deities want. Then they’ll look after you in every way. They’ll give you all the powers. They’ll give you all the satisfaction, all the protection that you want."

Padam'ekam na gacchet tu, yadīcchet-śhubham'ātmanaḥ
Kavachen'āvṛito nityam, yatra-yatr'aiva gacchati
One should invariably cover oneself with this Kavach wherever one goes
And should not walk even a step without it, if one desires auspiciousness.
Nirbhayo jāyate martyaḥ, saṅgrāmeṣhv’aparājitaḥ
Trailokye tu bhavet-pūjyaḥ, kavachen'āvṛitaḥ pumān
The person who covers himself with Kavach becomes fearless, is never defeated
In battle, And becomes worthy of being worshipped in the three worlds.

"I’ve told you before also but again today I want to tell you the significance of Pūjā. The significance is this, that when you do the Pūjā you recognize Me. By your recognition and your surrendering, the Deities get happy. They’re overjoyed that you have recognized it. You are fully identified yourself that you are understanding Me in My full form, that you are coming closer to them. And I tell the brothers feeling happy when the younger ones are coming to meet. So, they start releasing My vibrations with a greater force – much greater force. You have seen that after Pūjā sometimes when you do not absorb vibrations, I get little tired because the vibrations start coming out of all the chakras and you do not absorb, so the give and take process is not balanced. The identification in the West is very slow because of mental activity. Your attachment to your mental activity and your rationality is very great. With Pūjā the vibrations try to detach you from your mental activity, from your rationality, and then you are station into the Realm of Divine Existence."

Kamala-dal’āmala komala kāntī
Kalā kalit’āmala bhāla-late,
Sakala vilāsa kalā nilaya-krama
Keli chalat-kala haṁsa kule,
Ali-kula sañkula kuvalaya mandala
Mauli milad bakulāli kule, Jaya, jaya, he
Like a tender, lovely spotless Lotus-petal the crescent Moon adorns Your forehead;
Your movements are like a graceful and playful group of Swans;
Like a swarm of bees to fragrant flowers, the stars adorn Your forehead. Victory to You
"When there is worship always there's a bell rung.
That is good for all the negativity to run away."

Auṃ Twameva sākṣhāt Śhrī Chandraghaṇṭā sākshāt Śhrī Ādi Śhakti Mātājī Śhrī Nirmalā Devyai namo namaḥ
O Divine Mother, You are verily Śhrī Chandraghaṇṭā, the one Who use the Moon as Her bell,
Salutations to You!
"First and foremost thing She does is to protect us. Wherever you may be, whatever you may be doing, in whatever peril you may be, howsoever dangerously you may be placed in life, She protects you. First thing, She protects you.
......
So, when you worship Her, what do you want? You want Her to protect you. In your discrimination, in your mistake, you might do something wrong. May do something that is not good for you, could be very dangerous for you. But She is the person who guides how to avoid all the dangers. Now, She protects your life, She protects your body, She protects all organs of your body, She is the One who gives you all the security of life.
In Her Realm, you feel completely secure. You are never afraid of anything. Because you have left Her Realm, you have come out of it, that is why -- that is the reason you are afraid. But if you are under Her beautiful guidance and Her blessings, you will never feel afraid to do anything. You will never do anything wrong also. As soon as you'll try to do wrong, She will hold your hand. She is really the guiding person.
She is the One who actually gives us our existence. Without Her, we cannot exist, because She is the One who is the Power of Śhrī Śhiva."

"...... the Goddess always uses lion as Her vehicle. Sh... that is the vāhana specially used when, at different levels, She has to be compassionate as well as very harsh to the people who are trying to destroy humanity."

Hinasti daityatejāṃsi svanenāpūrya yā jagat,
Sā ghaṇṭā pātu no devi pāpebhyo naḥ sutāniva.
O Devī, may your bell which fills the world with its sound and destroys the power of asuras, protect us from sins, just as a mother protects her children.
