Ghatasthapana 2021 : Ghatasthapana 2021 Date | About Ghatasthapana Festival 2021

In the year 2021, the day of Ghatasthapana will fall on Saturday, the 7th of October. It’s a Hindu ritual performed during the nine-day Navratri festival and the Dashain festival, respectively. Indian northeastern states and Nepal’s neighbour both celebrate the Dashain festival. Both festivals get under way with the Ghatasthapana ritual.

People fill a Kalash with “holy water” during Ghatasthapana (pot). After that, the Kalash is covered in cow dung and seeded with barley. The sand pit is then filled with barley seeds and planted. A priest blesses the Kalash and asks goddess Durga to occupy the pot for the duration of the festival.

A family member worships the pot twice daily for the duration of the festival, until it is finished. Every day, holy water is sprinkled over the Kalash, which is kept out of direct sunlight. As a result of this activity, a tall, yellowish grass known as “Jamara” sprouts from the pot.

Day 1 Diety : Shailaputri

Known as Pratipada, this day is associated with Shailaputri (literally “Daughter of Mountain”), an incarnation of Parvati. It is in this form that the Goddess is worshiped as the consort of Shiva; she is depicted as riding the bull, Nandi, with a trishula in her right hand and lotus in her left. Shailaputri is considered to be the direct incarnation of Mahakali. The color of the day is red, which depicts action and vigor.

Shailputri Mantra – ॐ देवी शैलपुत्र्यै नमः॥ Om Devi Shailaputryai Namah॥

Shailputri Prarthana – वन्दे वाञ्छितलाभाय चन्द्रार्धकृतशेखराम्। वृषारूढां शूलधरां शैलपुत्रीं यशस्विनीम्॥

Vande Vanchhitalabhaya Chandrardhakritashekharam। Vrisharudham Shuladharam Shailaputrim Yashasvinim॥

Shailputri Maa governs Lord Chandra (moon), and anyone who is suffering from Chandra Dosha must worship this avatar of Adi-Shakti to eradicate all negativities.

As the ruler of Mooldhara Chakra, praying to Shailputri will enable devotees to gain knowledge of the present, past and future. One must entirely devote themselves to the goddess with pure heart and soul. Devi Shailputri will fulfil their wishes and desires.
