In Hinduism, girls are considered to be the form of Goddess Durga. This is the reason why on the Ashtami and Navami dates of Navratri, girls (Navratri 2025 Kanya Pujan) are invited to the house and fed and given some gift or money. It is believed that by doing this, the devotee gets the blessings of Goddess Durga.
can give these things
You can give makeup items like bangles, bindi, red colored chunari etc. to the girls. During Kanjak, you can give the girls study related items like pencil, copy etc. Along with this, religious books and money etc. can also be given to the girls. By giving all these things in Kanya Poojan, Mata Rani is pleased and keeps her kindness on the devotee.
don't give such gifts
Some such things have also been told, which should not be given to the Kanjak even by mistake during Kanya Poojan, otherwise Mata Rani can get angry. The girls who come home should never be given things made of glass or sharp things. Along with this, do not give black clothes or black handkerchiefs etc. to the Kanjak. Doing so is considered inauspicious. Also, giving steel utensils or plastic items like lunch boxes etc. as gifts to small girls is also not considered auspicious.
Do this before leaving
Before sending the girls away from home, touch their feet and take their blessings. After this, send off the girls while chanting the praises of Mata Rani. Also, keep in mind that do not clean the house immediately after sending off the girls. If you keep all these things in mind, then you get the full benefit of Kanya Poojan.
