Tomorrow is the festival of lights. Our holiest day of the year. We will be lighting many candles and lanterns and I invite you to do the same in the spirit of peace. We will meet with family and eat traditional foods, many sweets which my mother and sisters have been making all week. We will say prayers and give praise to our gods. We will give small presents, maybe new japa mala prayer beads or items of clothing. Later we will go out and let off many fireworks. Diwali is my favourite holiday even if my father does not allow us to drink alcohol. मैं तुम में जगह सम्मान है जिसमें पूरे ब्रह्मांड बसता है, मैं तुम में जगह जो वफ़ादारी का प्यार, बुद्धि, और शांति की है सम्मान. जब आप उस जगह में हैं, और मैं उस जगह में हूँ, हम एक हैं. I will say a mantra for each of you; Aum Namah Shivaya. please log in to view this image नमस्ते
