Sacred Vibes Diwali Celebration - Festival of Lights

Its November! As a child growing up in Guyana my all time favorite holiday was Diwali.  On this night the entire village would shine.   Everyone's home would transform in to a palace. It is the night to celebrate the return of Lord Rama to his kingdom after defeating the demon king Ravana;

the triumph  of good over evil

.   The evening began with ritualistic prayers to recognize the beginning of a new year, giving thanks and wishes for prosperity in the upcoming year.  Small clay oil lamps were then lit to signify the victory of the light of goodness and knowledge over the darkness of evil and ignorance.   On this night there was community, a community of individuals giving thanks for all the good things in their lives.  Sacred invites you to celebrate this years Diwali with us!  We will show case traditional Diwali fare and spices.
