Diwali, also known as Deepavali, is my favorite festival. "The Festival of Lights" is another name for it. Hindus in India and the Indian Diaspora commemorate it in October or November. It dates back more than 2,500 years.This occasion is associated to a number of stories. One legend from northern India tells of the mighty King Rama, one of the Hindu god Vishnu's avatars. Rama returned to his country after fourteen years of exile, conquering the evil demon Ravana, who kidnapped his wife, Sita, according to the Ramayana, an ancient epic. When he arrived in Ayodhya, his kingdom, people greeted him by lighting diyas, or oil lights. The Hindu god Krishna is said to have saved sixteen thousand women from slavery in a classic narrative from southern India. Narakasura is a tyrant king. Both stories end with good triumphing over evil. Diwali is also a festival dedicated to the goddess Lakshmi.On Diwali day, I like to go to the temple and pray to Mother Lakshmi. For peace, prosperity, and money, we pray to Goddess Lakshmi. I also dress in new Indian outfits, such as men's kurtas and women's saris.
