International Women’s Day 2026: International Women’s Day is celebrated every year on 8 March. This day is especially celebrated to honor the rights, equality, respect and social, economic, cultural and political contributions of women around the world.
If we talk about Indian culture and Hindu religion, women are considered equal to goddesses. Mother is considered as mother, wife as better half, daughter-in-law as Lakshmi and daughter as Kanya. Woman is not just a word, but a living form of power, creation and sensitivity. That is why it is said in the scriptures – “Yatra Naryastu Pujyante, Ramante Tatra Devta:” That is, where women are respected, there the gods reside.
Goddess resides in every woman
Different powers awaken within every woman in different circumstances. Sometimes she stands with courage, sometimes becomes the basis of prosperity, sometimes becomes fearless, sometimes becomes the light of knowledge and gives direction to the family and society and sometimes she showers affection and love on the idol of motherly love. It is said that every woman has the divine form of three goddesses.
Recognize your divine form on Women’s Day
Shakti Rupa Maa Durga- The form of Goddess Durga teaches us that woman is not weak, but is a source of immense strength. When a woman stands up against injustice and protects her family. Or if she fights fearlessly against difficult situations, then the form of Durga is visible in her. AGP, you remain strong in difficult situations and stand as a shield with your family, hence you too have the same divine radiance as Goddess Durga.
Samriddhi Swarupa Devi Laxmi- In Hindu religion, Goddess Lakshmi is called the goddess of wealth, a symbol of good fortune and happiness and prosperity. Women also play an important role in maintaining household order, financial balance and positive energy. Especially when a woman increases the prosperity of her family with her hard work and intelligence, then she is considered the divine form of Lakshmi.
mother of knowledge and creation Saraswati- Saraswati is the presiding goddess of knowledge, art and intelligence. Every woman has an amazing ability to learn and teach. Woman is the first teacher and guru of children. When a woman gives education and values to her children, the divine form of Goddess Saraswati is seen in her..
