Skandamata Devi Puja is a sacred ritual dedicated to Goddess Skandamata, the fifth form of Maa Durga, who is worshipped on the fifth day of Navratri. She is the mother of Lord Skanda (Kartikeya) and symbolizes motherly love, power, and wisdom. Devotees seek her blessings for prosperity, happiness, and spiritual growth. Performing this puja with devotion is believed to remove obstacles, bring peace, and bestow divine grace upon worshippers. With her four arms and a lotus in her hand, she radiates divine energy, guiding devotees toward enlightenment and protection. Worshipping Skandamata is also said to bless devotees with intelligence, success, and a blissful family life.
Skandamata is depicted with four arms, holding a lotus in two hands, offering blessings with one hand, and cradling her son Skanda in her lap with the other. She is seated on a lotus and rides a lion. Her radiant and divine form is filled with maternal love and joy as she holds her son in her lap.
