Temples across India prepare for Navaratri as celebrations honor Goddess Durga

Navaratri is an annual Hindu festival honoring Shakti, the divine feminine power, through the worship of Goddess Durga's nine forms over nine nights.

The festival is celebrated in varying ways across the Hindu Indian cultural sphere.

Tradition marks four seasonal Navaratris across the year in the months of Magha, Chaitra, Ashadha, and Ashvin.

Sharada Navaratri, observed during the autumn month of Ashvin, is celebrated with great pomp.

The New Indian Express reported that Indrakeeladri in Vijayawada is prepared for the Devi Navaratri festival.

Devotees throng temples across India, such as Vaishno Devi and Kamakhya, as Navratri begins.

The observance marks nine nights honoring the divine feminine power across historic temples.
