Navratri Celebrations at My Husband’s Workplace – 9 Days of Devotion & Festivities

Introduction

Navratri is one of the most vibrant and spiritually uplifting festivals, celebrated with devotion, dance, and joy. This year, I had a unique and memorable experience celebrating all 9 days of Navratri at my husband’s workplace, where there is a small temple that opens only during Navratri. The celebrations were grand, filled with prayers, music, and dance, making it an unforgettable festival.

The Temple at My Husband’s Workplace

Nestled within his factory (workplace) is a small but sacred temple, which is opened exclusively during Navratri. This made the occasion even more special, as it transformed the workplace into a spiritual and festive hub for nine days. With the participation of neighbors, workers, and friends, the celebrations turned into a beautiful community gathering.

9 Days of Devotion & Celebration

Each day of Navratri was celebrated with great enthusiasm, with aarti, bhajans, and prasad distribution. The temple was decorated with flowers, diyas, and colorful rangolis, creating a divine atmosphere.

Daily Puja & Aarti

  • Every morning and evening, we performed aarti with devotional songs, filling the space with positive energy.
  • The chanting of mantras, the sound of bells, and the fragrance of incense sticks made the environment truly spiritual.

Sangeet & Dance – The Fun Side of Navratri

  • No Navratri celebration is complete without music and dance! Every evening, we gathered for Garba and Dandiya, dancing to traditional beats with full enthusiasm.
  • Everyone, from young kids to elders, participated, making the nights joyous and energetic.

Prasad & Festive Delicacies

  • Each day, special prasad was prepared and distributed, including kheer, halwa, puris, and fruits.
  • On Ashtami (eighth day), Kanya Puja was performed, where little girls were invited and honored as forms of Goddess Durga.

A Grand & Memorable Celebration

Navratri at my husband’s workplace temple was not just about prayers; it was about togetherness, joy, and devotion. The experience of celebrating in a close-knit community, dancing, singing, and worshiping together made it truly special.

As the nine days came to an end, I felt deeply grateful for being a part of such a spiritual and festive celebration, and I look forward to celebrating many more Navratris in the years to come.

  🌼 To My Forever Friend: Guddu — A Bond That Found Us 🌼 By Juhi — On Friendship Day We didn’t plan this. We never imagined it. But somewhere, somehow — the universe quietly brought us together. I still remember the very first time I met you, Guddu . It was nothing grand — just a moment in the college lobby of our diploma college in Nashik . You were with your elder sister, asking where the admission office was. Such a small encounter… But little did I know — that question would mark the beginning of something beautiful . 🥰 The Little Moments That Started It All The second time, you surprised us. You came to Kalyan — not empty-handed, but with the cutest smiley cups and your signature joy. That’s just how you are — thoughtful, cheerful, full of sunshine. 🌞 Then came the third moment — when I visited your home. You weren’t alone that day either — your sister’s one-month-old baby Gargi was there too. A little bundle of joy… and so were you. From then on, o...

  My Journey as Juhi — From Holding Back to Healing Boldly 🌼 Intro Paragraph: Every journey isn’t about changing places — sometimes, it’s about changing within . This is the story of my evolution — from being the girl who stayed silent to becoming the woman who writes, explores, feels, and chooses herself unapologetically. My name is Juhi. And this is my journey — one layered with lessons, quiet wins, and soft healing that still continues each day. If you’ve ever felt stuck between duty and desire, or between what the world expects and what your heart whispers — this post is for you. 🪷 When I Forgot Myself to Fit In For a long time, I thought strength meant staying silent. I believed that being "the good girl" meant: Always putting others first Smiling even when hurting Never questioning, never resting, never choosing myself But somewhere along the line... I began to feel tired. Not just physically — emotionally tired of being invisible to my own self. ...

🌿 Healing Ka Safar: Jab Maine Khud Ko Thoda Thoda Samajhna Shuru Kiya

  🌿 Healing Ka Safar: Jab Maine Khud Ko Thoda Thoda Samajhna Shuru Kiya By Juhi — Mentor, Learner, Educator | Juhi The Explorer Healing. Pehle lagta tha ye bas ek fancy word hai — books, reels, ya kisi motivational talk ka hissa. Lekin jab zindagi thoda zyada tootne lagi, tab samajh aaya… Healing is real. Pain bhi real hai. Aur khud ko samajhna sabse bada process hai. 💭 Shuruaat kaafi confusing thi... Mujhe khud nahi pata tha main kis cheez se heal kar rahi hoon. Maa ki kami thi? Apne sapno se door chale jaane ka dard? Ya wo har roz ka emotional thakaan… jise main ignore karti rehti thi? Bas itna yaad hai — Ek din main thak gayi thi "theek hoon" bolte bolte. 🪞Tab Maine Rukna Seekha Main pehle har cheez ka solution dhoondhti thi — immediately. Par healing ne mujhe sikhaya — "Kuch dard sirf mehsoos karne ke liye hote hain, fix karne ke liye nahi." Main likhne lagi. Main chup rehne lagi. Main khud se baatein karne lagi. Aur dheere dheere… Ma...
