Dev Diwali
Dev Diwali, also known as the “Diwali of the Gods,” is a grand and spiritually significant festival celebrated on the full moon day of Kartik month. It is believed that on this sacred night, the gods descend to the earth to bathe in the holy rivers and witness the devotion of humans. Dev Diwali is celebrated with immense faith, devotion, and divine energy, especially in sacred cities. On this occasion, thousands of earthen lamps (diyas) are lit along riverbanks, temples, and ghats, creating a breathtaking and divine atmosphere. The glow of countless lamps reflects on the water, symbolizing the victory of light over darkness and purity over negativity. Devotees gather to offer prayers, perform rituals, and participate in special aarti ceremonies. Cultural programs, devotional music, and spiritual chants add to the charm of the celebration. Dev Diwali is not just a festival of lights but a spiritual experience that fills the heart with peace and devotion. It brings people closer to faith, tradition, and inner harmony, making it one of the most beautiful and meaningful festivals in India’s spiritual calendar.
