Diwali 
Diwali symbolizes the great cultural heritage of the Hindus. Diwali means a line of lamps. This age old festival of India is celebrated on the new moon day { Amavasya } of the Marathi month, Kartik. The decorative lamps hanged outside the houses look beautiful in the darkness of new moon day.

Evan the stars appear dim in front of these lamps. Diwali is not a one day festival, It is a collective festival of 4 - 5 days. The first day is called as Dhantrayodashi. Second day is known as Narak Chaturdashi. Next day is the main day of Diwali , called as Laxmi Pujan. 

Though this festival lasts for 4 to 5 days, it's preparations start long before. People clean their houses, and renew them. This festival reminds us about our glorious past. We can turn the darkness of the new moon day into full moon day by illuminating the lights. 

So, similarly , We should pray to God to show us the right path and take us from the darkness towards the light of the knowledge.


Thanks !

Diwali : The Festival of Lights


Diwali is a festival of Hindus. Not only Hindus but people of other religions and countries also celebrate Diwali. It is commonly known as "Deepawli" because "Deep" means lamp and "Awli" means line .

Hence it is known as festival of lights. Diwali is being celebrated from a very long time. Well I am not sure but according to Hindu Puranas it is celebrated Because on this day Shri Ramchandra Ji returned Ayodhya from his exile of 14 years. So for welcoming him the people of his kingdom enlighten the lamps.

From that time it is being celebrated every year. Well Diwali is a peaceful festival. It is very amazing festival. But nowadays people changed this holy festival into a gambling festival. People do gambling on this day . This is wrong we must stop it .

And as we know on this day we all do prayer to the goddess of wealth Laxmi. Children wear New clothes.They celebrate it with great pomp and show. And people celebrate it with crackers. It is harmful for our environment. That is why government banned crackers but again people put a petition and the timing is given 8-10 pm. In my point of view it is wrong the crackers must be banned.

Well this is to say that it is a holy festival we must celebrate it with pure heart. We should not do anything which affects the environment.
