Navaratri (nine nights) is when the Lord in the form of the Mother Goddess is worshipped. She is represented and worshipped in three different manifestations. On the first three nights of the festival, Durga is worshipped so the evil tendencies of our mind are destroyed. On the following three days, Lakshmi is worshipped so our minds can be purified. Saraswati is worshipped on the last three nights so that we can be blessed with the knowledge of our true SELF.
Having so worshipped them, we gain victory over our own minds and celebrate it as Vijayadasami.
