The time at which Durga Puja is celebrated nowadays (autumn) is not supposed to be the right time to perform the puja, as per the scriptures. That’s why Durga Puja is also sometimes called Akal Bodhon (untimely invocation) The reason for this timing may be traced back to another piece of Indian mythology, the epic Ramayana. Lord Rama, the hero of the epic, performed Durga Puja at this time to invoke the blessings of goddess Durga before waging war with Ravana, the demon-king who had abducted his wife, Sita. During The Puja Ram Needed One Hundred Eight Lotus flower to please devi, but he could found only Hundred and Seven lotus flower therefore he decided to sacrifise his own eye (Which was as beautiful as Lotus) to please Devi. Devi Durga was the pleased with Ram`s Devotion and gave him her blessings to slay Ravana My Blog Link : manashsubhaditya.blogspot.in/2012/10/goddess-or-devi-durga-according-to.html
