Nrityanilaya Bharatanatyam Academy in association with Swaabhi presents ‘9 Devis’ a heartfelt devotional offering to the power of divine feminism and to the journey of self-development and attainments through self realisation.
Dadhanakara KaraPadmabhyam akshamala kamandalu।
Devi prasidathu mayi brahmachariNyanutthama॥
“May the unparalleled Devi Brahmacharini. Who holds a kamandalu and akshamala in her hands, shower her grace upon me”.
Brahmacharini – following her earlier form Shailaputri, the unmarried phase of Goddess Durga is known as Brahmacharini. With her hands like lotus she is draped in white clothes holding a japamala (string of prayer beads) and Kamandalu (an oblong water pot).
It’s said that she practiced severe penance for thousands of years to win a place in Lord Shiva’s heart. Even the strongest whims of nature like severe cold, heat or rain were unable to shake her from her resolve. She is said to survive only on ‘Bilva’ leaves and later just water. In the Yogic and Spiritual practice, this form governs our Swadishthan Chakra and teaches us the power of pure devotion and improves our ethical conduct. After years of Brahmacharini’s wait and penance, it’s said amazed by her perseverance Lord Shiva married and united with her. This second avatar marks the initiation of self-determination, and an ability to go beyond worldly passions and attachments.
