History of Diwali
The history of Diwali is replete with legends and these legends are moored to the stories of Hindu religious scriptures, mostly the Puranas. Though the central theme of all legends point out to [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/Hollister-b5.php]hollister[/url] the classic truth of the victory of the good over the evils, the mode of their presentation and the characters differ. Diwali, being the festival of lights, lighting the lamp of knowledge within us means to understand and reflect upon the significant purpose of each [url=http://www.par5club.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] of the five days of festivities and to bring those thoughts in to the day-to-day lives.
The Story of Rama and Sita: Lord Rama was a great warrior King who was exiled by his father Dashratha, the King of Ayodhya, along with his wife Sita and his younger brother Lakshman, on his wife's insistence. Lord Rama returned to his Kingdom Ayodhya after 14 years of [url=http://www.ktbruce.co.uk/barbourjackets.php]barbour[/url] exile, in which he put an end to the demon Ravana of Lanka, who was a great Pundit, highly learned but still evil dominated his mind. After this victory of Good over Evil, Rama returned to Ayodhya. In Ayodhya, the people welcomed them by lighting rows of clay lamps. So, it is an occasion in honor of Rama's victory over Ravana; of Truth's victory over Evil.
The Defeat of Narkasur by Lord Krishna: Lord Vishnu in his 8th incarnation as Krishna destroyed the demon Narkasura, who was causing great unhappiness amongst [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/airjordan.php]jordan pas cher[/url] the people of the world. Narkasura was believed to be a demon of filth, covered in dirt. He used to [url=http://www.fibmilano.it]woolrich[/url] kidnap beautiful young women and force them to live with him. [url=http://www.sandvikfw.net/shopuk.php]hollister outlet sale[/url] Eventually, Vishnu, who came in the form of Krishna, heard their cries for rescue. First, Krishna had to fight with a five-headed monster who guarded the demon's home. Narkasura [url=http://www.jeremyparendt.com/Hollister-b5.php]hollister france[/url] hoped that his death might bring joy to others. Krishna granted his request and the women were freed. For Hindus, this story is a reminder that good can still come out of evil.
