Depending on the lunar date in the Hindu calendar, Maha Navami is observed in October or occasionally November. It occurs on October 23 in 2021. This was the day Mahishasura, the “buffalo demon,” was slain, according to Hindu legend. Millions of Hindus throughout India and the rest of the world commemorate this festival as a representation of the victory of good over evil. Maha Navami, also known as Durga Navami, is celebrated as the triumph of good over evil. It is thought to be the final day of the conflict between Goddess Durga and the malevolent demon Mahishasura. It signifies the conclusion of Navratri, the nine-day celebration honoring Goddess Durga.
