Diwali
Diwali (Deepavali or Divali;) is the Hindu festival of lights with its
variations also celebrated in other Indian religions. It symbolises the
spiritual "victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge
over ignorance". Diwali is celebrated during the Hindu lunisolar months
of Ashvin (according to the amanta tradition) and Kartika between
around mid-September and mid-November.
