Deepawali, the festival of light and auspiciousness celebrated on the occasion of the change of seasons. In our country, Diwali or Diwali is the most prominent among the festivals which have a tradition of celebrating on a collective level with extremely ancient art. It is a festival of joy and light. It is a festival of wisdom, justice, and the excellent victory of light against darkness, justice, tyranny and darkness. Like many other festivals celebrated in India, it is mainly considered as a season-changing festival. But many other religious ideals are also associated with it. It is said that Shri Ram returned to Ayodhya on this day, by destroying an oppressor like Ravana and after fourteen years of difficult exile. As a mark of their victory and joy of arrival, the Ayodhya people then illuminated the city with lamps of ghee, as a symbol of happiness to be freed from the unjust-tyrant like firecrackers, the day of Kartik Amavasya in the name of Diwali. The night is celebrated with pomp across the country.


This happened for a reason. Second, faith is no less important. The festival of Deepawali comes in the pleasant season of Sharad after the rainy season. Due to the rainy season, the atmosphere and sky become foul. The humidity of the atmosphere also starts changing into balsamic cold. Due to the rainy season, people who have been staying in houses closed and closed now start coming out. Drying the houses and doing paint or whitening etc. - make the environment bright. Then, to eliminate the contaminating effect of the atmosphere, light ghee or oil lamps are lit, worshiped. Surely this atmosphere is pure and the atmosphere is pure. Thus, Diwali is a season-changing festival, it becomes clear. Its prevalence and impact is also a well-known fact.


The traditional class of India also celebrates this festival as the beginning of its commercial new year. For this, the owner of wealth first, Lakshmi Devi is worshiped in the light of lamps. Then new ledgers are started. Sweetness is distributed and eaten to demonstrate this happiness. They are also fed and fed with sweets after affection with relatives - brothers, brothers-in-law, friends and neighbours. In this way the whole environment becomes light, fragrant, pure and blissful. In some provinces special types of pujas and puja-pandals are also organized on a large and collective level to commemorate this festival. Aryasamaji celebrates the festival of Bhai Deepavali. He says that on this day, Swami Dayanand Saraswati had attained contemporary awareness or knowledge. As a result, he wrote 'Samaj Satyarth Prakash' and established the Arya Samaj and provided new light of life to the whole world. Whatever it is, the importance of light is also from this point of view, this fact is clear. In this sense also it will be called meaningful.


Similarly, some other references are also famous celebrating Deepawali. Whatever be the context or reason, the motif or idea of bliss and light-practice is equally active in all context-causes. Worshiping Lakshmi or other deities in their own way, house to house, collective worship places, lighting lamps in the house, enjoying fireworks, sharing sweets, eating, affection-making - all these things too the day is equally prevalent. Gambling and its win-win are considered to be year-round defeats, consumption of alcohol and some malpractices and miseries are also associated with this holy festival. Some superstitions like owl-darshan as auspicious are also associated with the festival of Deepawali, but all these have no value and importance, all these types of blind perceptions should be disposed of. The main thing is the purification of the atmosphere, the victory of light over darkness, the reception of new seasons and good things, the spiritual bliss that comes with it, which is more important than all other values. Only for the attainment of the same, we must celebrate this great festival with holy and joyful life. Certainly, it is also the auspicious symbol and provider of light, blissful life. Both the pigmentation and public welfare sentiments together increase its importance even more.
