Lalita Panchami – Lalitha Panjami during Durga Navratri

Lalitha panchami, also spelt as Lalita Panjami, is the most auspicious day in Durga Navratri puja. Lalitha Panchami is celebrated on the fifth day of Durga Navaratri. On this day, devotees worship Mata Lalitha Devi, a powerful manifestation of Mother Goddess Shakti. Goddess Lalita Devi is a form of Goddess Shakti incarnated to demolish the demon – Bhandasura. Bhandasura was a demon created from the ashes of Kama or Manmatha (Manmadha).
