Diwali quotes
Asato ma sadgamaya, tamaso ma jyotirgamaya. Lead me from untruth to truth, from darkness to light.
Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.
Shubham karoti kalyanam, arogyam dhana sampadah. May the lamp bring goodness, health and prosperity.

About Diwali
Diwali, the festival of lights, celebrates the victory of light over darkness. Families clean and decorate their homes, draw rangoli at the door, light rows of diyas, perform Lakshmi puja in the evening and share sweets with neighbours and friends.
A personal greeting still matters in a week full of forwarded images. This page lets you add your own name to a Diwali wish, so the people you send it to know it came from you.
When is it? Diwali usually falls in October or November, on the new moon night (Amavasya) of the Hindu month of Kartik.
Did you know?
- Diwali is a five-day festival: Dhanteras, Naraka Chaturdashi (Choti Diwali), Lakshmi Puja, Govardhan Puja and Bhai Dooj.
- Sikhs celebrate Bandi Chhor Divas at the same time, marking Guru Hargobind Ji's release from Gwalior Fort.
- For Jains, Diwali marks the nirvana of Lord Mahavira, and many begin their new year the next day.
