The day begins at pre-dawn hours and the most significant ritual is 'nabapatatrika snan' a visual tree which is symbolic of Maa Durga. Nine plants are religiously bathed in the Ganga river or any other lake on the seventh day of Durga Puja, which is Saptami. The nine leaflets are brought for a holy wash after being knotted into a bundle. Together, these nine leaflets represent the nine incarnations of Goddess Durga. After the sacred wash, the Nabapatrika is dressed in a crimson saree and then its leaves are smeared with vermillion. It is then set on a clean pedestal that is beautifully adorned. After that, the Nabapatrika is worshipped with sandalwood paste, flowers, and incense sticks before being set up on Lord Ganesha's right side.
