The festival of Diwali/Deepawali binds people and is a synthesis of spirituality, culture and social values. The significance of this is not just limited to lighting a lamp or the rituals and celebration that surround the myriad stories and legends connected with it. As the days are becoming shorter, this month of Karthika ushers in a lot of fire rituals. Diwali/Deepavali is about the symbolic meaning light carries within us, as a manifestation of the element of fire that is fundamental to the whole existence. It is also about the ushering in a close connection to the ecological and seasonal changes happening within and around us.
