First Day Navratri Bhog – Food Offering on the First Day of Navratri

Bhog, prasad, or naivedya is the food offering to Gods and Goddesses in Hinduism. The first day Navratri bhog is offered to Goddess Shailputri. The food that is offered on day one of Navratri should be prepared using ghee and white in color. A devotee can also offer simple cow ghee or food prepared using ghee which is white in color.

If the food is prepared using cow ghee then the person offering the bhog will get relief from illness with the blessing of Maa Shailputri.

White colored food like kheer, chaval should be mixed with Ghee and offered to Goddess Shailputri.
