Diwali, which is commended with extraordinary enthusiasm and exhilaration crosswise over India, denotes the arrival of Lord Ram, the King of Ayodhya in northern India, after his triumph over evil spirit ruler Ravana in distant Lanka, and the zenith of his 14-year-long outcast. Ruler Ram is broadly viewed as the resurrection of Lord Vishnu.
Diwali is additionally celebrated to respect the Goddess Lakshmi, the Hindu god of riches and flourishing and associate of Lord Vishnu. It is trusted that the Goddess Lakshmi favors those homes that are spotless and sufficiently bright. On Diwali people enlighten their homes with colorful lights and earthen lamps.
