Where the Tradition Comes From
Diwali decorations trace back to the Ramayana — when Lord Ram returned to Ayodhya after fourteen years in exile, the people lit rows of diyas across rooftops and courtyards, decorated doorsteps with rangoli, and hung torans of mango leaves and marigolds to welcome him home. Every diya lit today echoes that same night light triumphed over darkness.
Conclusion
Decorating for Diwali is a celebration of light and positivity in its own right. Choose pieces that genuinely fit your space and spiritual sensibility, start early, and let the home glow.
