Navarathiri Day 1

                    Today is the first day of Navarathiri.The first three days, as per the tradition,I make Poojas to Goddess Durga.
               Navarathiri is celebrated in a very grand manner in all most all the Amman temples of Coimbatore.There are special Alangarams and Poojas even in some of the Vinayagar,Shiva, Murugan temples in the shrines of Devi.
               Similarly in the nearby, Siddhi Vinayagar temple, there is a small shrine for Goddess  Mariamman.The Goddess is decorated very aesthetically in different forms on all the ten days.The temple wears a festive look.
              Today the Ambal is decorated as Gaja Lakshmi seated on the lotus, flanked by two white elephants on either sides.
