What is Diwali
Diwali, also known as Deepavali, is a major Indian festival celebrated as the Festival of Lights, symbolizing the victory of light over darkness and good over evil. It typically lasts five days, marked by lighting oil lamps (diyas), sharing sweets, and exchanging gifts with family and friends. The festival is associated with the worship of deities like Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, and is celebrated with fireworks and vibrant rangoli designs

Diwali’s typically spans five days, each with distinct rituals: Dhanteras (wealth worship and purchases), Naraka Chaturdasi (Krishna’s victory and cleansing), the main Diwali (Lakshmi puja, diyas, and sweets), Annakut/Govardhan Puja (food offerings for Krishna’s feat), and Bhai Dooj (sibling bonds). These traditions symbolize the triumph of light over darkness, good over evil, and foster communal harmony.
