Diwali kyon manate Ho

 Diwali, jo ki "Deepawali" ke naam se bhi jani jati hai, Bharat ka ek mahatvapurn aur prachin tyohaar hai jo prakash aur khushi ka prateek hai. Is tyohaar ko manane ke piche kai pauranik kahaniyan aur paramparaen judi hui hain:

1. Shri Ram ki Ayodhya Wapasi: Diwali ka sabse pramukh karan Bhagwan Shri Ram ka apne 14 varsh ke vanvaas ke baad Ayodhya wapas aana hai. Jab Shri Ram, unki patni Mata Sita, aur bhai Lakshman ne Lanka ke raja Raavan ko parajit kiya aur vanvaas se wapas aaye, to Ayodhya ke logon ne apne gharon ko deepak (diye) jala kar, phoolon se saja kar aur atishbaazi karke unka swagat kiya. Tab se har saal is din ko prakash ke tyohaar ke roop mein manaya jata hai.

2. Lakshmi Pooja: Diwali ko Lakshmi ji ki pooja ke roop mein bhi manaya jata hai. Lakshmi Devi dhan, samriddhi aur sukh ki devi hain, aur aisa mana jata hai ki Diwali ki raat wo prithvi par aati hain aur jo ghar saaf-suthra hota hai, jahan deep jalte hain, wahan wo pravesh karti hain. Isliye log apne gharon ki safai karte hain, rangoli banate hain, aur diye jala kar Lakshmi ji ki aarti aur pooja karte hain.

3. Narakasura Vadh: Dusri katha ke anusaar, Bhagwan Krishna ne is din Narakasura naamak raakshas ka vadh kiya tha, jo logon ko atyachar se pareshan kar raha tha. Narakasura ke vadh ki khushi mein logon ne deepak jalae aur utsav manaya.

4. Mahavira aur Guru Nanak ki Smriti: Jain dharm ke anuyayi Diwali ko Bhagwan Mahavira ke nirvana diwas ke roop mein manate hain. Is din Mahavira ne moksha prapt kiya tha. Sikh dharm mein, Diwali ko Guru Hargobind Singh Ji ki Gwalior ke kila se mukti ke roop mein bhi manaya jata hai.

In sab kathayon aur paramparao ke karan, Diwali ko prakash, sukh, samriddhi, aur acchai ke tyohaar ke roop mein manaya jata hai. Is din log apne gharon ko deepak se sajaate hain, mithaiyan bantte hain, atishbaazi karte hain, aur apne parivar aur mitron ke saath khushi manate hain.
