Diwali is a very important festival of the Hindus. It is known as the festival of lights. We celebrate Diwali every year on Amavasya or new moon day in this month.
Diwali was first celebrated when Lord Ram returned to Ayodhya with his brother Lakshmana and wife Sita after living for 14 years in the forest. That day the people of Ayodhya welcomed Shri Ram by decorating the city with diyas.
It is because of this reason that we light diyas on Diwali.
On this day we pray to Goddess Lakshmi and wish that she would come to our home and bless us. We also burst crackers. We make sweets and share it with our friends and relatives.
Two important days celebrated near Diwali are CHOTI DIWALI and DHANTERAS
WISHING YOU A BELATED HAPPY DIWALI....
