Deepavali/Diwali 2013
Deepavali (or Diwali) isn't about greeting cards or the meals that one has had to commemorate the day. The true Deepavali only begins when the light within shines forth, revealing the true glory of the Self. Deepavali is known as the festival of light.
The Indians in India usually light plenty of candles along the pathway on this day. Just like the flame of the candle, one's faith should always be unshakeable and point 'upwards'. No matter how you turn the candle, the flame still points upwards. Only when you can allow the light within you to shine forth to help light your way can you help others illuminate theirs as well. Hope everyone had a blessed Deepavali, spent in deep contemplation of the Divine.
Happy Deepavali to you and your family. May the light within illuminate your path in life towards eternity
Love and light,
Genevieve
