SUMMARY:Diwali at Santosh Puri Ashram\, 2026
DESCRIPTION:In 2026 YogAnga Retreat will celebrate Diwali at Sri Santosh Puri Ashram on November 8th: a new moon celebration to bring light into our lives.\nAccording to the Hindu lunar calendar\, is held every year in the month of Ashwin (between around mid-September and mid-November).  In 2026 YogAnga Retreat will celebrate Holi at Sri Santosh Puri Ashram on November 8th. \nDiwali is also ofter called Deepawali\, due to the lamps that we light around our homes. It is believed keeping ghee lamps in the windowsills and doorways of one’s home\, invites the Goddess Laxmi to enter and thus blesses our home with abundance and prosperity. The days prior to this holiday are often spend deep cleaning one’s home. \nDiwali symbolises the spiritual victory of Dharma over Adharma\, light over darkness\, good over evil\, and knowledge over ignorance and thus the illumination of our inner selves. It’s a reminder that if you let God into your life\, it will light up every corner of your existence. \n \nCome gather with us in this special time of year to celebrate Diwali at Santosh Puri Ashram. Mingle among friends (old and new) and fellow devotees. Dress up\, spread ghee lamps around the ashram’s mandir\, gardens\, stairways\, balconies and your own doorways. \nHindus celebrate Diwali to rejoice in Lord Rama’s return to Ayodhya from a 14-year exile after defeating the evil Lord Ravana and rescuing the Goddess Sita\, who had been Ravana’s captive. The festival marks the homecoming and reawakening of good over evil. It is said the villagers lit a path for Rama\, to show him the way home. \n \nRead more about Diwali\nWhy Is Deepavali or Diwali Celebrated and What Is Its Significance?See Diwali in a completely new light as Sadhguru reveals the spiritual significance of one of the most exuberant festivals in the world.\nHow do different religions celebrate Diwali? | TransIndusWe look at how Sikhs\, Hindus and Buddhists celebrate Diwali differently around the world concentrating on India where the festival is biggest.\nThe hidden health risks of Diwali air pollution | - Times of IndiaDiwali celebrations increase air pollution\, causing immediate respiratory issues and long-term health risks\, including chronic diseases\, cardiovascula\nWhen your Diwali is not my DeepavaliSo how should I greet you this week?
