Significance of the festival of lamps
This day is set apart to commemorate the destruction of such a demonic person. The significance of this festival is that, on this day, he killed the darkness of - the unawareness of the disappeared from people. "From darkness, lead me into light," darkness has no place. Where the light of Athmic awareness shines, evil thoughts, wicked speech and vicious deeds flee in fear; so one should cultivate the wisdom which can cognise one's Reality. This lesson is ignored and instead people celebrate this day, the battle between the Queen and the Demon King. One more point. This day we light thousands of lamps with a single lamp. We light many candles with the flame of a single candle. But, remember that only a burning candle can light other candles. An unlit candle cannot light other unlit candles. Only one who has earned wisdom can enlighten others who are in ignorance. One who is himself unillumined cannot illumine others, dwelling in the darkness of : One must light his own lamp from the Universal Light of Love and thenceforward he can transmit illumination to all who seek and strive. All lamps shine alike, since they are all sparks of that , the Universal Luminosity, that is God.
