The second day of Navratri is dedicated to the worship of Goddess Brahmacharini- the 2nd form of NavDurga which is said to be the unmarried avatar of Goddess Parvati and is known as the symbol of wisdom and knowledge. It is believed that she governs the planet of Mangal and carries a rosary in one hand and kamandal in the other. Brahmacharini stands for a devoted female student who only desired to marry Lord Shiva. Maa Brahmacharini is symbolic of love and immense strength. One can please the Goddess with mantra, 'Om Devi Brahmacharinyai Namah?'
