This festival is celebrated by lighting clay lamps and creating design patterns called rangoli on the floor using colored powders. This festival is celebrated as a symbol of victory of light over darkness and good over evil. During Diwali, originally a harvest festival, lamps are lit to celebrate the triumph of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. Families gather, fireworks are set off, candles and oil lamps are lit, and prayers for prosperity are offered to Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth.â€
