Saraswati Puja 2021 During Navratri: Puja Vidhi And Significance
The nine forms of Goddess Durga are worshipped during the Navratri. Goddess Durga is the manifestation of power, peace, prosperity and knowledge. Goddess Lakshmi, Goddess Parvati, Goddess Mahakali, Goddess Saraswati all are just different forms of Goddess Durga. Among the nine days of Puja, a Puja is dedicated to Goddess Saraswati as well. It is generally observed as a three-day festival where the Goddess is offered prayers for the last three days of Navratri. This year Saraswati Puja will be performed on 12 October. The second day is known as Saraswati Pradhan Puja.
The southern Indian states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu, worship goddess Saraswati on the 9th day, which is the last day of Navratri. Also, in southern India, the goddess is either worshipped on the sixth day or ninth day; and the Saraswati Puja celebration continues for the last 3 days.

Why Worship Goddess Saraswati
Goddess Saraswati is the Hindu Goddess of art, learning, music, wisdom and knowledge. She is worshipped by Hindus in India and Nepal. She is one of the Tridevi - Goddess Lakshmi, Goddess Saraswati and Goddess Parvati. She is depicted as a beautiful innocent woman wearing a white saree and seated generally on a white lotus. The white colour that the Goddess wears symbolises peace, light and knowledge. It is this form of the Goddess which is known to remove the darkness of ignorance from the life of her devotees and provides wisdom to them.
