Celebrate the Festive Season with Online Diwali Gifts India

Whenever any philosophy or community faced persecution anywhere in the world, they only had to reach the shores of India to be accepted as worthy guests by the ruling kings and princes and bestowed with Diwali Gifts, cattle, land and wealth because taking good care of all human beings and all guests is one of the central tenets of Hinduism. Traditions are eclectic and people who practice Hinduism have, over the millennia, welcomed people of different thought streams from across the world to come and settle in India and become a part of the Indian soil, its varied cultures and traditions. Therefore, the current population of India is perhaps the most ethnically and linguistically diverse in the globe because almost all the people who came to India to seek refuge in her bounteous wealth and her fertile land, stayed on and inter-married with the local population and became part of the soil of the nation.

Also, Hinduism celebrates the acquisition of wealth and material prosperity through fair and legal means without harming one’s fellow inhabitants of the planet. Poverty is not considered a virtue and people are encouraged to better their prospects in life by dint of their hard work and intelligence. In such a practical culture which is not divorced from the day-to-day realities of life, it is natural that a festival be dedicated to the propitiation of the Goddess of Wealth Lakshmi. This festival – Diwali – is the most popular festival in the Hindu calendar and Bhai Dooj marks the start of Diwali festivities.

It is said that Goddess Parvati had gambled with Lord Shiva – who is one of the three Gods in the Hindu Holy Trinity – and Parvati blesses anyone who gambles and plays cards on the occasion of Diwali. The professional, business and trading classes of India make it a point to gamble on these occasions and consider it auspicious to do so. People are invited to one another’s houses in the evening for a game of cards accompanied with music, food, refreshments and revelry.

Material prosperity is not the only thing that is prayed for and celebrated on Diwali but overall well- being of our families – material prosperity, good health and physical well-being as well as wisdom and spiritual attainment and enlightenment, in other words spiritual wealth is also sought. On the day of Diwali, people go out with their families and shop for gold, silver, jewelry and precious or semi-precious metallic objects. It is considered auspicious to purchase metallic objects on Diwali.

Just like the Chinese, Indians are also a very successful, large, politically influential and economically powerful expatriate community. Indians have a large and important presence in many English speaking countries of the world like the U.S.A., the U.K.and Australia etc. The former Indian minister of state for external affairs, former top U.N. diplomat and current member of the Union Council of Ministers Shashi Tharoor famously calls the NRI community the “National Reserve of India.” India’s expatriate community repatriates a huge amount of valuable foreign exchange to India every year and thereby contributes to India’s bulging foreign exchange reserves and adds to the strength of the Indian economy.

Diwali Gifts Hampers for your Near and Dear Ones

One of the less known reasons why Diwali has an additional significance for Hindus is the fact that the history of the reformist Arya Samaj movement that arose as a response to the pressures being put on the philosophies of Hinduism.

Hindu reformers like Ramakrishna Paramahansa, Swami Vivekananda and Maharshi Dayananda tried to reform Hindu as well as Indian society, to begin a healthy inter-faith dialogue between Hinduism and the other great philosophical systems in the world to show a path to their followers to attain nirvana – freedom from the endless cycles of birth and rebirth and an identification of the self with the Absolute Paramatma or Brahman. Maharshi Dayananda believed in the Hindu Vedas as a source of wisdom and in brahmacharya or maintaining chaste thoughts as a pure way of life. On Diwali day, he attained nirvana.

Apart from the fact that Maryada Purushottam Shri Ram returned victorious to Ayodhya after 14 years of vanvaaas and after vanquishing the evil demon Lankashree Ravana, it is the attainment of nirvana that is also celebrated by the Arya Samajis on the day of Diwali.

Even today, Arya Samajis remain an important component of the Hindu faith and way of life. Arya Samaj Mandirs are known for their charitable and social work, apart from being places of worship and venues for Arya Samaj weddings.

Everyone gets together with their families, clean their homes during the days and weeks preceding Diwali, celebrate Dhanteras and Lakshmi Puja and eat Diwali mithai on the evening of Diwali.

Sending Diwali Gifts to India through Online Gifts Portals

What is synonymous with Diwali in people’s mind? Undoubtedly, lights, firecrackers and sweets!

Since Diwali is a Festival of Lights, people – especially youngsters – feel a lot of excitement and joy in letting off bright fireworks of various shapes, sizes and colors. Fireworks are a way of showing the Gods in Heaven that the people on Earth are very happy with the blessings that the Almighty has bestowed upon them in life. Seeing their obvious happiness, the Gods feel happy as well and they would keep bestowing their favors and showering prosperity on the people so that their happy lives may continue without any hindrance. A practical benefit of the fireworks is the smoke that they emanate which is beneficial for killing pests, insects and mosquitoes which are usually found aplenty in this season in India.

Anyone who sees a large Indian city from a high rise apartment or a high storey in a five star hotel on the night of Diwali Gifts, will get a beautiful view of the night sky lit up with multiple roman candles or ‘rockets’, sparklers, ‘flower pots’ and ‘charkhis.’

It is of course very important to exercise the highest standards of safety and precaution when playing with firecrackers and one should not play with fireworks except under strict adult supervision. One should not wear very loose items of clothing or even extremely tight or synthetic/ nylon or silk clothes when playing with firecrackers. Well-fitting cotton clothes which fully cover the body and thus afford maximum protection should be chosen whether one is himself bursting firecrackers or not since the outdoors are full of bursting firecrackers anyway.
