Understanding Navaratri and Fasting Traditions
Navaratri is a nine day Hindu festival dedicated to Goddess Durga. It is a time for spiritual reflection and festive cheer. During Navaratri, many follow the traditional navaratri fasting rules to keep the body light and the mind focused. The rules are:
- Avoid grains, wheat, rice, and pulses
- Skip onions and garlic
- Focus on sattvic foods like fruits and vegetables
- Include fasting friendly snacks like sabudana and buckwheat
Fasting will purify the body and will strengthen your mind. This highlights the spiritual significance of Navaratri. In cities like Sydney and Melbourne, Navaratri has become highly popular.
Garba nights, cultural events, and family gatherings unite the community. This growing celebration has also fueled the demand for authentic and delicious food options to keep the tradition alive.
