Aarti here is intimate rather than grand-scale. The main lamp ceremonies happen at the foot temple, with a mangala aarti around dawn and a sandhya aarti in the evening; a midday bhog offering falls in between. Because the temple does not circulate an official timetable, the times pilgrims quote are approximate and drift with the season and the priest's routine.
The shrine carries a well-loved local legend attached to its worship: devotees say the hanging lamp, the jhoomar, sways on its own at the morning aarti, taken as a sign of the goddess's living presence. Whether you read it as marvel or breeze, catching the early aarti is the most rewarding time to be there, before the day's climbers arrive.
On Navratri nights the aarti swells into something far bigger, with garba, dhol and a hillside crowd. If your visit is timed to a festival, expect the schedule to stretch and shift, and ask at the temple office on arrival for that day's exact aarti times.
