There are those who wear all orange, those who wear yellow, those who wear maroon, those who wear white, and many more.

While this choice could be seen as simply a way to distinguish different groups, in reality, there are deeper meanings to these different colors and they have diff...

Homes shine bright with clay lamps and design patterns called rangoli. The aroma of elaborate feasts permeates the air, and fireworks can be seen as they crackle during the day and night. Often the Diwali celebration takes place over five days to the delight of all its participants, young and old.

Diwali is a festival of lights. It is one of the major festivals celebrated by Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, and some Buddhists. The festival gets its name from the row (avali) of clay lamps (deepa) that Indi...
