Jagaddhatri Puja

Jagaddhatri Puja is a Hindu ritual dedicated to Goddess Jagaddhatri, an aspect of Durga representing the protector of the universe. Celebrated mainly in eastern India, especially West Bengal, it involves worshiping a decorated idol of the goddess, who is depicted holding weapons and symbols of strength. The puja emphasizes divine protection, victory over evil, and the goddess’s compassionate guidance. Devotees perform rituals, offer prayers, and partake in cultural festivities. The celebration typically occurs after Durga Puja, highlighting the goddess’s role as a guardian, fostering spiritual renewal, unity, and faith within the community.
