Diwali - The Festival of Lights 

Diwali is a prominent Hindu, Jains, Sikh, and Buddhist festival celebrated by Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and certain Buddhists, particularly Newar Buddhists. The celebration is held during the Hindu lunisolar month Kartika and lasts for five days.

During Diwali, people dress up in their best clothes for Diwali, decorate their homes with diyas and rangoli, hold worship ceremonies for Lakshmi, the goddess of prosperity and wealth, light fireworks, and share mithai (sweets) and gifts.

The first day of Diwali is called Dhanvantari trayodashi or Dhanteras. On that day Lord Dhanwantair ( God of medicine ) came out of the ocean with the science of Ayurveda of Mankind. 

The second day of  Diwali is Naraka Chaturdashi. Naraka Chaturdashi is a Hindu festival that takes place on the Krishna Paksha's Chaturdashi in the Shalivahan Shaka Hindu calendar month of Ashwin. 

The third day of Diwali is called Lakshmi Puja, the people of Diwali will pray to the Goddess of wealth for her blessing and wish for health, wealth, and prosperity. But at Diwali, there is a time she is active and when she is not active to listen to your prayers, the time she will be active will begin at 6:09 to 8:04 when she will not be active. 

The fourth day is Govardhan Puja. On this day Lord Krishna asked the people of Vrindavan to pray to Giri Govardhan, the hill, instead of Indra. 

The last day of Diwali is dedicated to brothers and sisters and is celebrated as Bhai Dooj. It's based on the belief that in the Vedic Era, Lordof  death, Yama, once visited his sister Yamuna. He gave a boon that whoever visits her sister on that day, would be liberated of all his sins and will achieve moksha.

This joyous occasion honours the triumph of light over darkness,  good over evil and right over wrong, as well as the strength of liberty, hope, and knowledge.

Families and friends would generally gather to feast, exchange gifts, and pray while lighting their houses with diyas on this important day.
