Diwali symbolizes new beginnings and the triumph of good over evil and light over darkness. Today it is celebrated today by millions of people worldwide.

The Hindu festival of Diwali symbolizes new beginnings and the triumph of good over evil and light over darkness and is celebrated today by millions of people worldwide.

Diwali, also known as Divali or Deepavali, comes from Sanksrit "dipavali" which means "row of lights."

The picture below is a pattern called a rangoli a popular folk art that sees people make colourful designs on the floor in their house, to serve as a welcoming gesture to the gods and bring good luck. The design is created using coloured rangoli powders, ground rice powder, flowers and diyas.
