Deepawali - The Social Significance


by Jaya Asthana
Deep means a lamp and avali means a row. The word literally means a row of lights. We normally think that Deepawali is about a lamplight, a deep. In fact, Deepawali is not about a single deep, it is about many. It is about a collective, an organization, a formation of lamps. It is about the relationship between one lamp and the rest of the lamps in the collective. The secret message of deepawali is hidden in its very name.
