9 days are dedicated for puja and generally known as navarathri puja which will culminate in the celebration of vijaya dasami on the 10th day. The day is very much selected for initiating children to the world of knowledge. Everything is looked up on as the manifestation of the "Shakti".Three aspects of the same power is viewed as ichha shakti, kriya shakti and jnana shakti. The capacity to discern and choose and the power to exercise our choice also the power of knowledge to make an appropriate choice is the basis for the success of any undertaking. This is attained through recognising the shakti which is universal and resides in the form of Durga,Lakshmy and Saraswati. So these are visualized the power of Iswara who is non seperate from it. Like the fire and its power to burn are non seperate.so too the Parameswara and the Shakti. Shakti is prakrti which is the manifested world. It has 3 gunas and the these gunas are inherent in the creation. This is Otherwise known as Maya which is behind the creation.Because Iswaras swarupa doesn't change inspite of the creation being what it is. The detailed discussion will bring out the truth behind the creation but here briefly we recognise the presence of three powers which is Bhagavans Shakti only therefore not seperate from Bhagavan but from the stand point of creation we have to look at it severally for our own understanding. These things will be seen in detail during study of vedanta.....OmTatSat
