Diwali/Deepavali is a festival of lights. It symbolizes the triumph of good against evil. The word Deepavali refers to rows of diyas or clay lamps. These lamps are kept on during the night and houses were cleaned in order to make the Goddess Lakshmi feel welcome.
Firecrackers are burst, which drives away the evil spirits. During this festival time, all celebrants wear new dresses and share sweets and snacks with friends and families…
This time, we went to my parent’s home. We celebrated nicely….
Hope, you all enjoy the snaps…
