In November, Hindus all over the world will celebrate Diwali, which means "row of lights". The ancient celebration is the biggest of all Hindu festivals. The day begins with a visit to the temple. Then it is common for families and friends to come together and celebrate by exchanging gifts and ethnic sweets. Buying gold jewelry is considered good luck, so many women dressed in their finest clothes go to the jeweler in the afternoon. When the sun sets, most households are illuminated with diyas (small oil lamps) and with fireworks. What makes the celebration fun is that it is not a professional display. Everyone gets to create their own show with their own firecrackers. The younger ones like sparklers, while the teens and adults prefer the louder, more powerful versions. The reason why the day is celebrated varies in different Indian states. For some, it's to celebrate the return of Hindu king Rama, his wife, and brother to their ancient kingdom after spending 14 years in the forest. Others believe it symbolizes the triumph of good over evil.
