Navratri 2021 Day 8: Maa Mahagauri Significance

Maa Mahagauri, a manifestation of Maa Durga is worshipped on this day. While Indian folklores have many tales of this day, one claims that Goddess Parvati had to perform penance in order to get Lord Shiva as her husband. While undergoing that, she had to face a lot of hardships like survive on leaves, stay in wild forests and due to such conditions, her complexion turned dark. Later, when Lord Shiva accepted her as his wife, he bathed her with water from the Ganges which turned her complexion back to normal i.e. fair. This is why she is known as Mahagauri.
