The Significance of garba & dandiya in celebrating shakti
The Daily Guardian
|September 29, 2025
Garba and Dandiya, the vibrant folk dances of Gujarat, are much more than festive entertainment— they are a profound celebration of Shakti, the divine feminine energy that sustains and empowers the universe.

Performed during Navratri, these dances honor Goddess Durga and her nine forms, each symbolizing strength, courage, and resilience.
For women, participating in Garba and Dandiya is both a spiritual and empowering experience. The circular movements of Garba represent the cyclical nature of life, reminding women of their ability to adapt, nurture, and transform. Dandiya, traditionally performed with sticks, symbolizes the fight against negativity and obstacles, reflecting women’s courage in facing personal and societal challenges.
