Colourful
Diwali also
known as the
"festival of
lights", is
an ancient
Hindu
festival
which
spiritually
signifies
the return
of Lord Ram,
after his
fourteen-year
exile. The
festival
celebrates
his return
as the
victory of
light over
darkness,
knowledge
over
ignorance,
good over
evil, and
hope over
despair. It
is one of
the biggest
festivals of
the year and
is
celebrated
all over the
country by
people
lighting up
diyas and
candles all
around their
house and
performing
pujas or
prayer
ceremonies
in order to
seek the
divine
blessings of
Goddess of
Wealth.
Gifts are
shared
amongst
friends and
family and
particularly
in the
cities the
actual day
is
celebrated
with an
abundance of
fire
crackers
making for a
boisterous
festival
feeling!
