Deepawali, also known as Diwali, is one of the most significant festivals celebrated across the world by us Indians and also by all those who love India.

Deepawali is culturally and spiritually significant and symbolizes the victory of light and good over darkness and evil.

When we celebrate this festival of light, we illuminate the inner path to light, awakening the light within.

This joyous festival brings together families, communities, and friends to celebrate the triumph of positivity.

This mantra from the much-revered ancient scriptures, the Upanishad captures the essence of Deepawali so well:

“Tamaso ma Jyotirgamaya.

Take Me from Darkness to Light.

It encapsulates the essence of Deepawali. It reminds us to seek enlightenment, both externally and internally, and to strive for the eradication of ignorance and negativity.

Deepawali guides us towards the path of knowledge, wisdom, and spiritual awakening.

Deepawali encourages us to embrace honesty, integrity, and moral values. It inspires us to let go of falsehood, deceit, and negativity, fostering a harmonious and virtuous existence.

Deepawali emphasizes the journey from darkness to light, urging us to overcome ignorance, fear, and despair.

Deepawali serves as a beacon of hope, encouraging us to kindle the flame of knowledge within ourselves and share it with others.

Above all, Deepawali encourages us to recognize our inherent divinity and the interconnectedness of all beings. It reminds us we are all vessels of light and love, capable of spreading joy, compassion, and positivity in the world.

Deepawali, the Festival of Lights, serves as a reminder to dispel the darkness within and around us, embracing the path of righteousness, knowledge, and spiritual growth.

Deepawali gives a universal message of light conquering darkness. Let us celebrate this festival with joy, love, and gratitude, spreading the radiance of inner light to all.

I will conclude with this Vedic prayer:

“May each one of us enkindle that inner flame of awareness by looking deeply within the original nature of our boundlessness to illuminate our path to bliss!”

May that infinite light arise within you to illuminate your path ahead to become and be at your brilliant and benevolent best.
