In Sanatan Dharma, Navratri is regarded as one of the most auspicious periods dedicated to the worship of Goddess Durga. Out of the four Navratris that occur each year, two are widely observed — Chaitra and Ashwin — while the other two, in Magha and Ashadha months, are known as Gupt (secret) Navratris. Gupt Navratri holds special spiritual importance for fulfillment of desires and the removal of planetary afflictions from one's horoscope.

During this period, devotees worship the ten Mahavidyas (forms of Goddess Durga) in a concealed and spiritually intense manner. In 2025, the Ashadha Gupt Navratri will commence on June 26 (Wednesday) and conclude on July 4. By observing the rituals, auspicious timings, and proper spiritual discipline during this period, devotees believe they can attain peace, prosperity, and divine blessings.
