Diwali is the five day festival of lights, celebrated by millions of Hindus,Sikhs and Jains across the world.The actual day of Diwali is traditionally celebrated on the festival’s third day, which this year falls on Thursday October.
Why Diwali is celebrated for what reasons ?
Diwali is called Festival of Lights and it is celebrated to honor Rama-chandra, the seventh avatar, incarnation of the god Vishnu. It is believed that on this day Rama returned to to his people after 14 years of exile during which he fought and won the battle against the demons and the demon king, Ravana.
What is the story of Diwali ?
Rama is the hero of the story of Diwali, rescuing the kidnapped Sita from her captor. And here is the beautiful Sita, kidnapped by the evil Ravana but rescued by Rama and Hanuman. In the story of Diwali, diya are used to light the way for Rama and Sita's return home.
