Diwali

Diwali has come again, Yet another Diwali.

Every Diwali has been very different and so will be this one too.

In Childhood days, Diwali Meant Sweets , Patakhe( Crackers) and lot of Celebrations. I used to buy Aloo Bomb, Ladiyaan and other Crackers and would enjoy the Crackling Booming Sound , the Ho Hallah and Dhamakey. Most of the times, I was at home only whenever Diwali Came....Diwali means DIYON WALI...The Night when Lights are at the Prime, everywhere there are lights.

How did this actually Start - If we see Diwali, it actually happens on a Amavasya - The Dark night and the Lights and Festival ka Mahoul raises the Energy Level. Our Ancient Rishi/Munis had actually started this so that the energy Level is high.

There is the Ram Chandra Ji Waala Angel also - Lord Rama had come back from Vanvaas along with Mrs Ram and Mr. Lakshaman and enjoyed the victory - rest is all History.

Whatever be the Origin -- But the Truth is that Diwali is sheer Celebration and Enjoyment....!!!!

Enclosing a Poem

Diwali
The sweet smell of flowers
The array of colors
Diwali is here
Firecrackers are heard
Candles are lit
Children play
Presents are given
We pray to the gods
Diwali is here.
