Spirituality and innovation rule and conquer the world. Each person needs to increase their self-confidence to be able to spread innovative ideas. Most people are thinking about how to increase their self-esteem. Everyone wants to capture the attention of the world with different thoughts. Thus the Rig Veda says that those who want to contribute innovative creative thoughts to the world should become divine. The Vedas mean that one should cultivate the divine qualities in oneself in order to be first in whatever one deals with. The ancient clergy found and put forward various answers as to how to awaken these divine qualities. One of them is Navratri celebrations and Vijaya Dashami. This is one of the mysterious ways in which the ancient masters set out to awaken the spirit and the creative genius that is truly inherent in him. Therefore, during Navratri, we can take part in worship programs to bring out all the creative talents that inhabit each of us, be it music, art, dance or painting. Each person had precise ritualistic plans to bring out the dormant genius. There were teachers who were careful that each person was not marginalized anywhere. Each person became an ascetic according to their instructions. The sages were not the only ones who taught the sciences. Narada, who taught music, Vatsyayanan, who taught Kama Shastra, and Bharathan, who composed Natyashastra, were included in the Rishi series.
To this day, there is something that carries the link of that series. One such link is the Navratri celebrations we celebrate for the first nine days of early autumn and the subsequent Vijayadasami. During the ten days from the first to the ninth day of the new moon in the virgin month, we perform penance to drain the various handfuls of wisdom from us.
Even penance is part of the celebration. Because if we study the Rig Veda, we will understand that spirituality does not negate materiality. The Vedas are an inexhaustible source of knowledge. And that is what we got from the Supreme Guru, Ishwar. Ishwar is also known as Jupiter as it was given to us by Vedavani. The Vedas say that the first thing man got was Vani. That van has all the ingredients. That Vedic Vani also has material properties. The same scripture tells us how to live. The real concept of Navratri is to invoke the commercial power of the Mother of the Vedas.
That is why it is said in the Rig Veda that Lakshmi, the eternal bride, dwells in the Vedas, which are rich in knowledge (Bhadraisham Lakshmi Nihitadhi Vachi- ഋ: 10/71/2). Thus the real aim of these Navratri days is to welcome Saraswati Vani, Lakshmi and all victories to oneself.
