What ever a person does, he/she does for getting pleasure.. A major human tendency is to celebrate every joyous occasion with enthusiasm. Most religions in the world include festivals in their calendars. Hinduism is no exception. In fact, Hindu philosophers and social leaders very skillfully combined human tendencies with religious and seasonal causes to celebrate. The long cultural history, combined with various religious traditions, has made a difference in local celebrations in large countries like India.

According to the Hindu calendar, a year is divided into different seasons: summer, monsoon, autumn,  winter, and spring. The struggle between good and evil, and finally the victory of good, the incarnation of God for the establishment of peace and religion on the face of the earth, the omnipotence of the Almighty for the abundant harvest, and the prosperity of the common people associated with the good harvest, etc. These festivals give our lives a religious and spiritual meaning and connect us with our rich history and traditions.

Some other devotees also celebrate their own festivals with Diwali The Jains celebrate their own Diwali which is known as the day of Mahabir’s final liberation / liberation. According to history, in the first decade of the seventeenth century, the sixth Guru Hargobind (son of Guru Arjun Singh) was freed from the Mughal emperor Jahangir’s prison on this day, along with 52 other Hindu kings.

While Buddhists worship Diwali by worshiping Lakshmi, Hindus in eastern India and Bangladesh worship Diwali by worshiping Goddess Kali. In India, Malaysia, Mauritius, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Suriname, Fiji, Trinidad and Tobago, the main day of Diwali is celebrated as a public holiday.

The present-day city of Ayodhya (Uttar Pradesh) is about 2,600 km from Rameshwaram, which Lord Shriram crossed with his followers in just 21 days (maybe it was possible through a flower plane). He decorated the city with clay lamps to welcome his king.

Diwali is a five-day festival of joy, excitement, brightness, happiness and solidarity and is celebrated with enthusiasm by Indians all over the world. The uniqueness of this festival is its combination of five different philosophies, each day connected with a special idea or ideology.

Diwali is considered very auspicious and traders start their new financial year from this day on.

Dhan Triodashi (Dhan Teras), the first of the five days, which is celebrated as Family Shopping Day. On this special day, the Dhanwantari deity is worshiped Dhanvantari is worshiped as a medical deity.

The second day is Hell Chaturdashi when Lord Krishna was freed from the demon hell (“Sark” in Sanskrit). People visit friends and family, and eating with friends and family is an important aspect of the day.

Celebrations related to the life of an incarnation like Shriram and Lord Krishna have had a profound effect on the minds of every Indian, irrespective of religion.

The most beautiful of all the Indian festivals, Diwali is the festival of lights The houses on both sides of the road are illuminated by clay lamps and the houses are decorated with colors and candles. The festival is celebrated with new costumes, wonderful fireworks and a variety of sweets with family and friends. All these lights and fireworks, joys and festivals, symbolize the victory of the divine power over the wicked. In West Bengal, the festival is celebrated as Kali Puja, and on the occasion of Diwali, Shiva’s wife Kali (Rudra’s form of Parvati) is worshiped.

In the south, the festival of Diwali commemorates the birth anniversary of Asura, a powerful king of Assam, who imprisoned thousands of people. It was Sri Krishna who finally conquered hell and was able to free the prisoners. To make this event memorable, people in South India wake up before sunrise and make it look like blood to mix sindur with oil / ghee. After crushing under a bitter fruit as a symbol of evil power, they apply the above blood-like substance on the forehead as a sign of victory. They then anoint themselves with sandalwood and bathe regularly Then he goes to visit the temple for prayer

Gambling in the northern part of the country includes gambling, as the festival is considered auspicious and brings financial benefits. Although Diwali is a Hindu festival, many Sikhs celebrate by lighting their houses. Their place of worship, the Gurudwara, is also illuminated on Diwali night.

Another story of the Asura king Bali is associated with the Diwali festival in South India According to Hindu mythology, King Bali was a compassionate and generous Asura king. He was so powerful that he was threatened by the gods of heaven and the power of their empire, and Lord Vishnu came as a beggar to reduce the power of sacrifice. Lord Vishnu cleverly asked the king for three pounds of land in begging. The king happily gave the gift By deceiving the sacrifice, Vishnu manifested himself in the world He covered the heavens in his first step and the earth in his second Realizing that he was standing against the mighty Vishnu, he surrendered and bowed before Vishnu and invited him to take a third step on his head. Vishnu pushed him to the underworld In return Vishnu gave him the lamp of wisdom to illuminate the dark abyss. He has also given him a blessing that he will come to his people once a year and light millions of lamps from this lamp so that ignorance, greed, jealousy, anger, pride, laziness and laziness will be spilled in the dark new moon of Diwali and the culmination of wisdom and friendship. Every year on Diwali, even today, one lamp illuminates the other and, like a blazing fire constantly on a windless night, brings a message of peace and harmony to the world.
