The festival is invariably of lights, especially earthen lights/lamps which is called as ‘diyas’ commonly, every house is cleaned, coloured, the fervor is high on ‘diwali’ night with all the ongoing process of elaborate prayers, exchange of gifts and sweets the tell tale sign of this festivity, every one from king to pauper buys and gifts their near & dear ones with something or the other, elaborate patterns are drawn on the floor with coloured powdery dust called ‘rangoli’. It all signifies the welcoming part of the goddess of wealth & good health the ‘lakshmi’ & the ‘ganesha’, people even stay awake all night to welcome the divine guests, it is even believed we don’t lock our doors to avoid their return what ever the story might be the mythological part, but there are few basics which we should also keep in mind while going for this big bang theory of festivity.

The light,but which light? not just the neon Lamps or few decorative Chinese lamps but the light of your soul should also be enlightened to remove all the darkness from each one of us the vicious darkness of ill feelings & thought process that we as homo sapiens nurture in us, it’s the evil thought process that brings all the calamity in the long run, may it be a single lamp or ‘diya’ but we have to enlighten our souls by all means, the treasure of knowledge we should ask for not just paper currency, the treasure of good health, good body & mind will automatically direct our paths towards success & prosperity, the generosity, the basic humanity which is getting vanished off gradually, the mankind warmth & warm hearted feeling towards each other,… cleaning doesn’t only mean your household but also your toxic thought process vicious mind set every bit has to be detoxified, leaving behind a sacred soul full of peace and harmony. People buy new clothes and other house hold articles gifting each other with precious semiprecious gifting articles but do we gift love that way or it is just a measure of our wealth and prosperity or social status or do we show off firstly we need to gift love not just one day but every day without mistake, that’s invariably the most priceless asset we can gift someone known or unknown…
