Navratri Story of Mata Brahmacharini

We worship Maa Brahmacharini on the second day of Navratri. Ma Brahmacharini is an embodiment of tapa or penance.

In fact, the name Brahmacharini is made up of two words – Brahma meaning tapa or penance and Charini meaning an ardent female follower.After Sati immolated herself, she took birth as the daughter of Parvat Raaj, Himalaya, as Parvati.

When Parvati grew up, Sage Narad happened to visit her. He told Parvati that she could marry Lord Shiva who happened to be her husband from the previous birth.

She was required to follow the path of penance. Parvati was determined to marry Shiva. She followed an immensely difficult regime of penance and devotion for several thousands of years. She earned the name Brahmacharini or Tapascharini meaning one who follows the path of Tapa.

Mata Brahmacharini continued her penance without food and water for many years. Her body became extremely weak and fragile. Finally, Lord Brahma appeared before Parvati and blessed her that she would have Lord Shiva as her husband in this birth.

Later Lord Shiva married Parvati. Maa Brahmacharini holds a rosary in her right hand and a Kamandalu in her left hand. Maa Brahmacharini is an embodiment of tapas, devotion, solitude, and restraint. She blesses devotees with peace, prosperity, happiness, and nobility.
