The third day is dedicated to the worship of Goddess Chandraghanta, whose divine radiance embodies strength and serenity. Adorned with three luminous eyes and a crescent moon glowing on her forehead, she rides a ferocious tiger, symbolizing courage and valor. Her ten hands hold sacred weapons like the trident, mace, sword, and bow, alongside a lotus, rosary, and kamandalu, showcasing a balance of might and compassion. Dressed in shimmering golden attire, she emanates a protective aura, and the surrounding halo of light dispels darkness and negativity. The vivid backdrop of celestial realms and vanquished demons emphasizes her as fearless guardian, purifying the aura and shielding her devotees.
