Festival of Lights — The True Meaning of Diwali
First of all, I wish everyone a very Happy Diwali!
Diwali, or Deepawali, is not just a festival of lights.
It is not only about lamps, or the victory of good over evil, or emotions.
Diwali is a festival of unity — a day when hearts, homes, and families come together as one.
Just like when our five fingers and thumb unite to make a fist, Diwali reminds us that together we are stronger.
And if you are giving your precious time to read this, I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
As an Indian, let me share my thoughts —
People say Diwali has been celebrated since the time when Lord Ram returned to Ayodhya after 14 years of exile.
To welcome Him, the people of Ayodhya lit lamps everywhere — and that light became the symbol of joy and victory.
Firecrackers came much later — that’s a modern addition.
But what truly matters is the spirit of love, joy, and togetherness.
During Diwali, we clean our homes, decorate them with rangoli and lights, wear new clothes and jewelry, make sweets, and worship Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesha for prosperity.
Diwali is often celebrated for three days —
1️⃣ Dhanteras — when people buy something new (gold, silver, copper, or anything they can afford).
2️⃣ Chhoti Diwali — when homes are decorated beautifully.
3️⃣ Badi Diwali — the main festival, filled with prayers, lights, sweets, and fireworks.
But for me, the real meaning of Diwali is this —
It teaches us unity, forgiveness, and love.
Even those who are upset with each other reunite on this day.
Families that were apart come together again.
It’s a day when brothers, sisters, parents, and everyone feel connected again.
Because honestly, Diwali is not complete if you celebrate it alone.
The real joy of Diwali is when you celebrate with your family, do the aarti, laugh together, eat sweets, and light fireworks under the open sky.
The happiness of Diwali cannot be measured — it’s a feeling that fills your heart with positivity and peace.
So yes, Diwali is not just a festival —
It is a message that even if life separates us, love can always unite us again.
Thank you so much for giving me your precious time to read this.
If you ever get a chance, come to India and celebrate Diwali here.
You’ll see colors, lights, joy, and love everywhere.
Again, Happy Diwali to everyone! Stay happy, stay united, and always keep your family close.
