About

She is the Devi of the root chakra, who, upon awakening, begins Her journey upwards. Sitting on Nandi, and making her first journey from the Muladarachakra. As from her father to her husband — the awakening Shakti, beginning Her search for Lord Shiva or making a move towards her Shiva. So that, In navrati pooja the first day Yogi’s keep their mind concentrated on Muladhara. This is the starting point of their spiritual discipline. They started their Yogasadha from here. Shailaputri is the Mooladhara Shakti to be realized within Self and sought for higher depths, in the yogic meditation Mother Shailputri

The first day of Navratri dedicated be,

To Himalayan daughter Ma Sailputri,
Adorning half-moon on head clearly,
With trident and lotus in hands plainly.

She riding on her bull ‘Nandi’ does be,
A way to worship Goddess Parvati,
Who essence of love, awareness be,
From Devi Sati to Goddess Parvati.

The first day signifies initial spirituality,
Keeping ‘mooladhar’ in mind unfailingly,
As Goddess Shailputri — the Shakti,
Path of self-discovery undoubtedly.

In this form Goddess worshipped be,
As the consort of Shiv, riding Nandi,
Trishul in right, lotus in left hand be,
She direct incarnation of Maha Kali.

Her colour is red, for action, vigour be,
Crescent moon on the forehead to see,
She in the Mooladhara, lowest energy,
At the base of spinal cord resident be.

Realizing her Mooladhara* truly,
The actual form of divine energy,
The first step to moving certainly,
To the spiritual enlightenment be.

Arti

शैलपुत्री माँ बैल असवार। करें देवता जय जय कार॥
शिव-शंकर की प्रिय भवानी। तेरी महिमा किसी ने न जानी॥
पार्वती तू उमा कहलावें। जो तुझे सुमिरे सो सुख पावें॥
रिद्धि सिद्धि परवान करें तू। दया करें धनवान करें तू॥
सोमवार को शिव संग प्यारी। आरती जिसने तेरी उतारी॥
उसकी सगरी आस पुजा दो। सगरे दुःख तकलीफ मिटा दो॥
घी का सुन्दर दीप जला के। गोला गरी का भोग लगा के॥
श्रद्धा भाव से मन्त्र जपायें। प्रेम सहित फिर शीश झुकायें॥
जय गिरराज किशोरी अम्बे। शिव मुख चन्द्र चकोरी अम्बे॥
मनोकामना पूर्ण कर दो। चमन सदा सुख सम्पत्ति भर दो॥
