Fourth Day of Navratri dedicated to Goddess Kushmanda

Goddess Kushmanda is worshipped on the fourth day of Navaratri. The day also marks the beginning of worshipping of Goddess Lakshmi during Navaratra. Legend has it that Lord Vishnu was able to begin the creation of universe, when she smiled and receded. Goddess Kushmanda represents that form of Durga, which is the source of all. Goddess Durga is also worshipped as Bhuvneshwari on the fourth day in many parts of India. It is believed that the eternal darkness ended when she smiled. And this led to the beginning of creation. This form symbolizes that Shakti is the primordial source.
