Diwali, an auspicious festival is related with triumph of goodness over
evil.. Lamps and lights express its glamour.. Irrespective of region and
religion it is celebrated not only in India, but also in many parts of the world by all those people, who share affinity with Indian
cultural traditions.. The reasons behind celebrations and divinity may
be many and multifaceted, but the expression is one and the same..
Welcoming
the new season, happiness, joy, meeting near and dear ones, distributing sweets and gifts,
crackers, best wishes for health and wealth are some of the reasons behind and the expressions of
this festivity.. With the change in time and transformation of life
style, there have been several changes in the outlook and celebrations of this auspicious event..
Today
many sane people believe in linking traditional festivals with the solution of social evils.. In the similar direction,
this festival has been linked with helping the humanity and
lightening others' lives.. So what about, if the able people come
forward to lighten the lives of the people in need..
It could be done in numerous ways, like by donating a candle, a solar lamp, or by teaching the disadvantaged children, helping persons in depression or family/relationship problems, or persons caught in the stranglehold of career failures. It could be done by working in the field of collective ecological development and in the field of sustainable development.. Making our lovely earth a better place to live on.. making the lives of next generations enriched just by taking care with the optimum use of natural resources and so on... What, if on this day we take a pledge that our eyes be donated after our death..

come forward and do whatever we can do as per our means, energy and time.. A
little can make a big difference, and there is no big satisfaction than
the satisfaction arising out of making others happy.. Think about it and act upon...
Have a eco-friendly bright Diwali.. Happy & Prosperous Diwali...
