What is the best Diwali gift for a family? (#1 is a must know)

Diwali is known to be one of the most awaited Indian festivals. Right from the young to the elders, everyone celebrates this festival with lots of excitement, togetherness and love. It remarks victory over evil and overall despair and brings along a rise of hope. There are lots of fireworks, feasts, prayers and charity happening around. It’s the time when India feels the liveliest.

Since India is a diverse country and everyone has different rituals to follow, different regions celebrate Diwali in their own interesting and versatile way. For eg: In Bengal, Diwali coincides with Kali Puja so people deck the idols up with flowers, give offerings and seek blessings from them. In Varanasi, they believe that gods and goddesses come down to earth and take a dip in Ganga, so people offer prayers there and decorate the banks with diyas and rangolis. In Odisha, they burn jute sticks to call upon their ancestors and seek blessings from them. These are a few different perspectives and ways of celebration in the country.

All in all, people see it as a festival that celebrates the triumph of light over darkness, good over evil and knowledge over ignorance. With its onset, it brings in the most joyous times, lots of lights, colours (rangolis), new clothes and delectable sweets at home.

People from all over the nation travel back to their roots to celebrate the festival together with their families.
