Chaitra Navratri 2023, Day 4: Goddess Kushmanda is honoured on the fourth day of Navratri. The Hindu festival of Navratri celebrates the nine avatars of Maa Durga for nine different nights. People pray to nine different goddesses, practice fasts, and seek blessings. This year, Chaitra Navratri began on March 22 and will end on March 30 with Ram Navami. The name Kushmanda derives from three Sanskrit terms: ku refers to “a little,” ushma means “warmth,” and anda means “cosmic egg.” Hindu legend holds that Maa Kushmanda created a little cosmic egg from which the universe erupted in order to construct the universe.
