Diwali is known as the festival of lights and is an important 5 day festival in Hinduism, Sikhism and Jainism. For Hindu's it is the most important festival of the year.
Diwali involves the lighting of lamps filled with oil which signify the triumph of good over evil.
In Jainism, Diwali marks the attainment of moksha by Mahavira in 527 BC. Moksha literally means release and is the liberation from the suffering involved in being subject to the cycle of repeated death and rebirth.
November is the month of renunciation, letting go and releasing of all that holds us back spiritually in Unity's Twelve Powers model of Christ consciousness.
So for the next 5 days at least, let your light shine!
