Diwali is a significant festival in Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism and Jainism, and an official holiday in India. Adherents of these religions light diyas to signify victory of good over the evil within an individual. Diwali is the abbreviation of the Sanskrit word "Deepavali". Deepa meaning light and Avali, meaning a row. It means a row of lights and indeed illumination forms its main attraction.

The story behind Diwali varies from region to region, several significant events associated with it are Return of Rama to Ayodhya and The Killing of Narakasura. Diwali celebrations are spread over five days in India and all over the world. All the days except Diwali are named according to their designation in the Hindu calendar.

While Diwali is popularly known as the "festival of lights", the most significant spiritual meaning is "the awareness of the inner light".Many Diwali festivals have come and gone. Yet the hearts of the vast majority are as dark as the night of the new moon. The house is lit with lamps, but the heart is full of the darkness of ignorance.The sun does not shine there, nor do the moon and the stars, nor do lightning shine? All the lights of the world cannot be compared even to a ray of the inner light of the Self. Merge yourself in this light of lights and enjoy the supreme Diwali.
