You may be exhausted after the Navaratri and Dusshera two weeks ago and now it’s time to stay exuberant full on for Deepavali. Festive seasons are tiring, aren’t they?

Deepavali to precisely define ‘Deepa’ lamp and ‘Avali’ in a row, is the arrangement of lamps in a row or simply the festive of light. Deepavali is just round the corner next week on the November 10^th. Celebrated grandly not only in India but also in other countries like Singapore, Malaysia and Nepal to name a major few. Coming to the significance of Deepavali, there are many school of thoughts. According to one school of thought Deepavali is the day when Lord Krishna killed the demon Narkasura. Few others observe Deepavali as the day where Mata Kali killed the demon Raktavija. According to few other groups Deepavali is celebrated as a day of triumph and victory when Lord Rama returned to his kingdom after 14 years of forest exile following the victory over the demon Ravana. Certain groups in eastern part of India believe lighting lamp during Deepavali help show path to the spirits of ancestors returning to heaven. Whatever the belief system there is always a spiritual dimension to any festival celebrated and so also for Deepavali. Spiritually Deepavali is observed as the day for victory of good over evil or victory of light over darkness. Hindus, Sikhs, Jains and few other religious groups in India celebrate Deepavali with great pomp.

Cleaning the house and preparing goodies during Deepavali is a very common tradition that is performed in every household, many days prior to the festival. Houses are decorated with lamps, Rangolis and Flowers. Traditional flowers carry immense importance in Deeapvali. Houses are decorated with lamps, mango leaves and marigold flowers. Deepavali is celebrated across 5 days in major regions in India these include Dhanteras, Naraka Chaturdashi, Lakshmi Puja, Padwa and Bhai dooj. For Lakshmi Pooja the entrance of the house is decorated with flowers and rangoli to welcome the goddess of wealth. Rose, Samanthi or marigold flowers of various colors are scattered around to fill the Rangoli pattern as a welcoming sign for the goddess to bestow the house with wealth and happiness.
