Introduction to the Creator of the Universe: Maa Kushmanda
Navratri ka chautha din Navdurga ke chauthe swaroop, Maa Kushmanda, ko samarpit hai. Unhein srishti ki aadi-swaroopa, yaani universe ki creator maana jaata hai. Jab har taraf sirf andhkar tha aur kuch bhi nahi tha, tab Devi ne apni halki si muskaan se is brahmand (universe) ki rachna ki. Isliye, unhein Navratri Day 4 Goddess ke roop mein pooja jaata hai.
Unka naam teen shabdon se milkar bana hai: ‘Ku’ (chhota sa), ‘Ushma’ (urja ya garmi), aur ‘Anda’ (brahmandiya anda). Iska arth hai, “Vah jinhone apni urja se is brahmand roopi ande ko utpann kiya.” Kushmanda Devi ki shakti surya ke samaan hai. Vah surya mandal ke bheetar nivas karti hain aur unke shareer ki kaanti (glow) se hi surya ko prakash milta hai. Unki pooja karne se bhakt ko rog, shok aur dukh se mukti milti hai. Jo bhi sache mann se Kushmanda Mata Ki Aarti aur Maa Kushmanda Mantra ka jaap karta hai, uski sabhi manokamnayein poori hoti hain.

Maa Kushmanda Ki Aarti in Hindi
कूष्मांडा जय जग सुखदानी।
मुझ पर दया करो महारानी॥
पिंगला ज्वालामुखी निराली।
शाकंबरी माँ भोली भाली॥
लाखों नाम निराले तेरे।
भक्त कई मतवाले तेरे॥
भीमा पर्वत पर है डेरा।
स्वीकारो प्रणाम ये मेरा॥
सबकी सुनती हो जगदंबे।
सुख पहुँचती हो माँ अंबे॥
तेरे दर्शन का मैं प्यासा।
पूर्ण कर दो मेरी आशा॥
माँ के मन में ममता भारी।
क्यों ना सुनेगी अरज हमारी॥
तेरे दर पर किया है डेरा।
दूर करो माँ संकट मेरा॥
मेरे कारज पूरे कर दो।
मेरे तुम भंडारे भर दो॥
तेरा दास तुझे ही ध्याये।
भक्त तेरे दर शीश झुकाए॥

Maa Kushmanda Ki Aarti in English
Kushmanda jai jag sukhdani.
Mujh par daya karo Maharani.
Pingala jwalamukhi nirali.
Shakambhari Maa bholi bhali.
Lakhon naam nirale tere.
Bhakt kayi matwale tere.
Bheema parvat par hai dera.
Sweekaro pranam yeh mera.
Sabki sunti ho Jagdambe.
Sukh pahunchati ho Maa Ambe.
Tere darshan ka main pyaasa.
Poorn kar do meri aasha.
Maa ke mann mein mamta bhaari.
Kyun na sunegi araj hamari.
Tere dar par kiya hai dera.
Door karo Maa sankat mera.
Mere kaaraj poore kar do.
Mere tum bhandare bhar do.
Tera daas tujhe hi dhyaaye.
Bhakt tere dar sheesh jhukaye.

Hey Maa Kushmanda, aap is sansar ko sukh dene wali hain, aapki jai ho. Hey Maharani, mujh par apni daya banaye rakhein. - “Pingala jwalamukhi nirali. Shakambhari Maa bholi bhali.”
Aap Pingala aur Jwalamukhi jaise ugra roop bhi hain, aur Shakambhari jaise bholi-bhali bhi. Yeh aapke vibhinn swaroopon ko darshata hai. - “Lakhon naam nirale tere. Bhakt kayi matwale tere.”
Aapke aneko anokhe naam hain aur is duniya mein aapke laakhon deewane bhakt hain. - “Bheema parvat par hai dera. Sweekaro pranam yeh mera.”
Aisa maana jaata hai ki aapka ek nivas Bheema parvat par bhi hai. Kripya mera pranam sweekar karein. - “Sabki sunti ho Jagdambe. Sukh pahunchati ho Maa Ambe.”
Hey Jagdambe, aap sabki prarthana sunti hain aur sabko sukh pahunchati hain. - “Tere darshan ka main pyaasa. Poorn kar do meri aasha.”
Main aapke darshan ke liye vyakul hoon. Kripya meri is aasha ko poora kijiye. - “Maa ke mann mein mamta bhaari. Kyun na sunegi araj hamari.”
Aapke mann mein apne bachhon ke liye apar mamta hai. Aisa ho hi nahi sakta ki aap hamari vinti na sunein. - “Tere dar par kiya hai dera. Door karo Maa sankat mera.”
Maine aapke dar par aasra liya hai. Hey Maa, mere jeevan ke sabhi sankaton ko door kar dijiye. - “Mere kaaraj poore kar do. Mere tum bhandare bhar do.”
Mere sabhi ruke hue kaamon ko poora karein aur mere ghar ke bhandare (ann aur dhan) hamesha bhare rakhein.

Importance of Maa Kushmanda in Navratri
Navratri ke chauthe din Kushmanda Devi ki pooja ka vishesh mahatva hai. Unki pooja se bhakt ko adhyatmik aur bhautik, dono hi star par laabh milta hai.
Spiritual Significance
Yogic drishti se, Maa Kushmanda Anahata Chakra (Heart Chakra) ka pratinidhitv karti hain, jo hamare hriday ke paas sthit hota hai. Is din sadhak apna dhyaan isi chakra par kendrit karte hain. Anahata Chakra prem, karuna, aur kshama ka kendra hai. Is chakra ke jaagrit hone se vyakti ke andar sabhi ke liye prem aur daya ki bhavna badhti hai. Uska mann shant aur sthir hota hai, aur use ek anandmayi avastha ka anubhav hota hai.
Why Do Devotees Worship Her on the Fourth Day of Navratri?
Navratri ke pehle teen din sadhana ke aarambhik charan hain. Chauthe din Maa Kushmanda ki pooja karke sadhak apne mann ko vishuddh karke Anahata Chakra mein pravesh karta hai. Unki pooja se bhakt ko surya jaisi urja aur tej prapt hota hai. Jaise Devi ne apni muskaan se andhkar ko mitaya tha, vaise hi unki pooja se bhakt ke jeevan ka andhkar (agyaan, dukh, rog) mit jaata hai aur gyaan, sukh, aur aarogya ka prakash failta hai.
