Removal of negativity is stabilised by the revival of positive energy so the fourth,fifth and sixth days are dedicated toGoddess Lakshmi, who showers the prosperity and wealth on her devotes. She bestows with divine energy and fulfils the need of her worshippers so that they can lead a serene and contented life ahead.
The fifth day of navaratri is dedicated to the humble and pious mother (Ma Parvati) of Kumar Kartikeya or Skanda orLord Murugan, so she is also referred as Skanda Mata.
During the fierce war between Gods and demons, Kartikeya Ji in the form of Skanda had to come to rescue and became a saviour. His glory has also been mentioned in Puranas, where he is referred as Shaktidhar.
Skanda Mata Puja is way to worship the mother of Skanda to achieve the Visuddhachakra state. In this form, she holds the infant Skanda in her lap sitting in meditation posture, therefore also called asPadmasana.
Chant this mantra to worship Goddess Skandamata…
