When is Diwali: This year, there is a lot of confusion about the date of Diwali. Some say it’s on October 31, while others claim it’s on November 1. Let’s clarify the correct date for the Festival of lights.
Kartik Amavasya and Lakshmi Puja are considered to be on October 31 according to scriptures, So this year Diwali will be celebrated on 31 October. Diwali is primarily celebrated in joy of Lord Ram’s return to Ayodhya. On this day, Lord Ram returned after completing 14 years of exile. In celebration of his homecoming, the people of Ayodhya decorated the entire city with lamps. This is how the tradition of celebrating this festival began.
Diwali has since evolved into a celebration of light over darkness and good over evil. Families come together to light diyas, share sweets, and exchange gifts. It is also a time for new beginnings, as many people perform prayers for prosperity and happiness in the year ahead. The festival fosters a sense of community and togetherness, reminding us of the importance of love and harmony in our lives.
