Happy Diwali, from our family to yours!
Diwali, also known as Deepavali, is celebrated across the world by millions of Hindus, Jains and Sikhs. Although the stories and history behind the festival change from group to group, they all celebrate one common theme: the triumph of light over darkness and good over evil. Diwali is often observed by lighting small oil lamps known as “diyas” and is also where the term “Festival of light” is derived from.
