Durga Puja, a festival that celebrates the victory of the goddess Durga over the demon Mahishasura, can teach valuable lessons about teamwork and collaboration: 

The power of unity

Durga Puja is a collaborative effort that involves months of preparation, from sculpting idols to coordinating cultural programs. This collective effort can teach leaders the importance of bringing teams together to achieve goals. 

Harnessing diversity

Effective leaders can use the diversity of skills and thought in their teams to create a symbiotic relationship where colleagues support each other.

Creating high-performing cultures

By channeling individual strengths towards shared objectives, leaders can create cultures that are primed for innovation and growth. 

Values that transcend borders

Durga Puja promotes values like teamwork, integrity, discipline, and cultural sensitivity that can enrich professional lives. 

How can organising a Durga puja help you succeed in corporate life?

Durga Puja is a ten-day festival that usually takes place in September or October. It involves elaborate decorations, processions, cultural programs, and the creation of idols.

The festivals hold great importance among devotees, celebrating the triumph of good over evil. During these festivals, people come together and worship Goddess Durga, known as a symbol of strength, courage, and compassion.

Navratri, an incarnation of “Goddess Durga” is worshipped to celebrate the day of her victory over Mahishasura, and the ultimate victory of 'Good over Evil.”

 Navratri, or the Divine Nine Nights, is a time of deep rest and rejuvenation. Each day is dedicated to one of the nine forms of the Mother Divine.

Bharat Mata

A unique modern form of Durga appears in a nationalistic form called Bharat Mata. Her origins can be found in Bengali writer Bankim Chandra Chatterjee’s British Raj-era novel Anandamath (1882), which popularized the notion of India as a mother goddess: Bharat (an ancient name for India still in use today) and mata (“mother”), identified as Durga. Anandamath, which offers a potent combination of Hinduism and nationalist themes, is set during the Sannyasi Rebellion (c. 1770–1800), an uprising of Hindu ascetics against the forces of the East India Company. A crucial passage visualizes Bharat as three aspects of the goddess. Kali represents the economic exploitation of pre-independent Bharat, Jagaddhatri (a benevolent version of Durga) symbolizes the lost glory of the country, and Durga herself signifies the goal of the rebel ascetics: the restoration of Bharat to its former majesty. The novel’s vision of Bharat and the accompanying devotional poem Vande Mataram (part of which was adopted as the national song of India by the Congress Party in 1937) served as a rallying cry during India’s independence movement. Bharat Mata was rendered as a four-armed goddess in a famous painting by Abanindranath Tagore in 1904–05, and subsequent illustrations show her in a more stirringly nationalistic form next to or mounted upon Durga’s lion. Her shape is sometimes superimposed on a map of India. Temples specifically dedicated to Durga as Bharat Mata have been created in various parts of India.
