NALKHEDA, IN / ACCESS Newswire / September 14, 2026 / As Sharadiya Navratri 2026 approaches, devotees across India and around the world are preparing for nine days dedicated to Maa Durga and the worship of Divine Shakti. The festival, which begins on October 11 and continues through October 19, will bring renewed attention to traditional Navratri rituals, devotional practices and special worship at sacred Devi temples and Siddha Peeths across India.
At Maa Baglamukhi Siddha Peeth in Nalkheda, Madhya Pradesh, Navratri is being observed as an important period for traditional Devi worship, with arrangements available for devotees seeking to participate in Puja, Havan, Mantra Japa and Anushthan during the festival period.
According to the Maa Baglamukhi Guru Navratri 2026 guide, Sharadiya Navratri is a nine-day Hindu festival dedicated to Maa Durga and the nine forms of Navdurga. In 2026, the festival begins with Ghatasthapana on October 11, while the nine-day sequence concludes with Navami on October 19. The exact Ghatasthapana Muhurat is location-specific and is advised to be checked according to the local Panchang.
Nine Days Dedicated to the Nine Forms of Maa Durga
Each day of Sharadiya Navratri is traditionally associated with a different form of Maa Durga. The 2026 sequence begins with Maa Shailputri on October 11 and progresses through Maa Brahmacharini, Maa Chandraghanta, Maa Kushmanda, Maa Skandamata, Maa Katyayani, Maa Kalaratri and Maa Mahagauri before concluding with Maa Siddhidatri on October 19.
The nine-day observance provides devotees with an opportunity to follow daily Puja, Mantra Japa, Aarti, Vrat and other devotional practices according to their family, regional and spiritual traditions.
The Navratri period is also associated with Durga Saptashati Path, Bhog and Prasad, Ashtami and Navami worship, Kanya Pujan and Havan. The specific rituals and procedures can vary according to regional customs and the type of Anushthan being performed.
Traditional Navratri Worship at Nalkheda
Nalkheda, in Madhya Pradesh, is associated with Maa Baglamukhi worship and the Maa Baglamukhi Siddha Peeth. During Sharadiya Navratri, devotees can combine the broader worship of Maa Shakti with traditional Maa Baglamukhi Puja and related Vedic practices.
Maa Baglamukhi is an important form of Shakti worshipped through specific Puja, Mantra Japa, Havan and Anushthan traditions. During Navratri, devotees seeking to undertake Baglamukhi worship may arrange a special Puja or Havan according to their Sankalp and the prescribed ritual procedures.
The Maa Baglamukhi Guru website provides information about traditional Baglamukhi Puja and Havan arrangements at Nalkheda, including options for devotees who may not be able to personally visit the Siddha Peeth.
Navratri as a Period of Devotion and Spiritual Practice
Beyond its nine-day calendar, Navratri represents a period of devotion, discipline and worship of the feminine divine. Many devotees observe fasting, prayer and Mantra Japa during the festival while dedicating time to spiritual reflection and family worship.
Ghatasthapana marks the beginning of the traditional Navratri observance, followed by daily worship of the corresponding form of Maa Durga. Ashtami and Navami are particularly significant days for many devotees, with special Puja, Kanya Pujan and Havan forming part of the observances followed by different communities.
The festival culminates in the worship of Maa Siddhidatri on Navami, completing the nine-day journey through the forms of Navdurga.
Maa Baglamukhi Worship During Navratri
For devotees whose spiritual practice includes Maa Baglamukhi Sadhana, Navratri can also be a time to undertake Baglamukhi Mantra Japa, Puja or Havan under appropriate guidance.
At the Nalkheda Siddha Peeth, Navratri-special Maa Baglamukhi worship can include traditional Puja, Havan, Mantra Japa and personalized Sankalp based on the devotee's details. Devotees can enquire about traditional Baglamukhi Puja and Havan during Navratri, with online arrangements available for eligible services.
This creates a connection between the wider Navratri celebration and the distinctive worship of Maa Baglamukhi, allowing devotees to participate in Shakti-oriented practices according to their individual traditions and spiritual requirements.
Participation From Across India and Abroad
With devotees living in different parts of India and overseas, online participation has also become an option for those unable to travel to Nalkheda during the festival.
According to the information provided by Maa Baglamukhi Guru, online Puja arrangements may include the devotee's name, Gotra and Sankalp details, along with live or recorded updates and Prasad delivery, depending on the selected service.
The availability of such arrangements allows devotees outside Madhya Pradesh and those living internationally to enquire about participating in traditional Navratri and Baglamukhi worship without being physically present at the Siddha Peeth.
Looking Ahead to Sharadiya Navratri 2026
With Sharadiya Navratri beginning on October 11, the festival is expected to bring renewed attention to traditional worship of Maa Durga, the nine forms of Navdurga and the broader spiritual practices associated with the nine sacred nights.
For devotees visiting Nalkheda, the Navratri period also provides an opportunity to explore the traditional worship of Maa Baglamukhi alongside the wider celebration of Divine Shakti.
