Why we celebrate Diwali
Introduction
Diwali is a festival that all Hindus celebrate because people love to blow up firecrackers and go to people’s houses to celebrate it.
Where it started
We celebrate Diwali because of the day lord Rama and his wife sita devi and his brother Lakshmana returned to their homeland after 14 years. Because the evil ravan who was really greedy took away lord Rama’s wife Sita who was really pretty. When he was kidnappping Sita devi, someone saw him and suddenly said to the lord Rama that your wife Sita has been kidnapped by the greedy ravan. And suddenly lord Rama went to that place where she was taken by the greedy Raven.
Lord Rama asked where she was and the man said that Ravan took her. After he heard the news he went to his brother and said to him that the Raven took Sita away. He said we need to go to Ravans palace and free Sita and take her with us. So then those two brothers went to free Sita from the Raven. After 2 days both of the brothers were really tired but they still did not stop from walking. After 2 hours someone met them and said are you Lord Rama and his brother and they said yes. He said “what are you doing here?” and they said “we are here to free Sita from the greedy Ravan”. He said, “you guys must be tired and hungry. Would you like to come to my house to eat ?” Lord Rama said, “sure we will love to. “ After they ate the food it was dark time and they went to sleep.
When it was the morning they heard a really loud noise and they thought that it must be the Raven’s palace.So then they were following the noise and finally they saw Ravan’s palace but they did not go there yet because they had a plan to go in the dark so that no one can see them in the dark. When it was dark they went inside his palace and they were searching for Sita and lord Rama saw her outside alone. Lord
Rama went to his brother and said,” I saw Sita outside” and they both went outside and lord Rama yelled out “Sita!” Sita saw lord Rama.
They were both so happy. Finally they escaped the Ravan’s palace and went to their village and everyone was really really happy. The three of them came back by killing the greedy Ravan. And that’s why we celebrate Diwali because greediness always loses.
