Chaitra Navratri 2024 Day 6: Maa Katyayani Vrat Katha
According to the legend, once Maharishi Katyayan performed rigorous penance in front of Goddess Bhagwati to have a child. Mother Bhagwati was very happy with the rigorous penance of Maharishi Katyayan and also gave her darshan. Sage Katyayana expressed his wish to Goddess. The goddess promised him that she would be born in his house as his daughter. Once the atrocities of a demon named Mahishasur were increasing day by day on all three worlds. All the gods and goddesses became troubled due to the demon's rampage.

Then the goddess incarnated from the glory of Brahma, Vishnu and Lord Shiva and took birth in the house of Maharishi Katyayan. She was named Katyayani because she was born in the house of Maharishi Katyayana. After being born as a daughter in the house, Rishi Katyayan worshiped Mother Katyayani ritually on Saptami, Ashtami and Navami tithi. After this, Mother Katyayani killed Mahishasura and freed the three worlds from his atrocities.

जय जय अंबे जय कात्यायनी।
जय जगमाता जग की महारानी॥
बैजनाथ स्थान तुम्हारी।
वहां वरदानी नाम पुकारा॥
कई नाम है कई धाम हैं।
यह स्थान भी तो सुखधाम है॥
हर मंदिर में जोत तुम्हारी।
कही योगेश्वरी महिमा न्यारी॥
हर जगह उत्सव होते रहते।
हर मंदिर में भक्त हैं कहते॥
कात्यायनी रक्षक काया की।
ग्रंथि काटे मोह माया की॥
झूठे मोह से छुड़ानेवाली।
अपना नाम जपनेवाली॥
बृहस्पतिवार को पूजा करियो।
ध्यान कात्यायनी का धरियो॥
हर संकट को दूर करेगी।
भंडारे भरपूर करेगी॥
जो भी माँ को भक्त पुकारे।
कात्यायनी सब कष्ट निवारे॥
