Devotees consider the girl child has the power of the goddess Durga in them. That is why Kanya Puja is an important ritual that one should perform. Here are a few steps to follow during the Kanya Pujan:
- Some people also revere girls on Ashtami Tithi in addition to Navami Tithi.
- To begin with, you should welcome the Kanyas one day before Navami or on time.
- You should give the girls a tidy seat and wash their feet when they enter your home.
- Provide them with red chunri after that.
- You should feed the girls and worship them using the Panchopachar method.
- You must make an extra effort to ensure that the meal contains something sweet.
- Once they have finished eating, wash the girls’ hands and feet, give them tilak, and give them gifts as a sign of respect.
- Finally, touch the girls’ feet to get their blessings.
Worshiping a girl child can help to alleviate sadness and despair while bringing joy and abundance into the home. Also, people believe that Kanya Pujan is a very effective way to appease the goddess. But, in Kanya Poojan, you should ensure that the girls you have invited or are feeding are between 2 and 10 years old. You should feed at least nine girls as well. Get it done without a doubt. In addition to this, Kanya Puja should always include a boy. People believe that the boy is the manifestation of Batuk Bhairav, and the rituals are void without a boy.
