Diwali~Festival of Lights

Diwali~Festival of Lights.

Diwali is a hugely vibrant, colourful, uplifting and luminous day celebrated all over the world! We're getting excited, too, because the magic and festivities will continue right on your doorstep at Bhakti Lounge on Sunday, 23 October.
It's a day when happy times are remembered! And when sad things of the past are forgotten! Diwali signifies the victory of truth, knowledge and spiritual happiness, conquering lies, darkness and cheap thrills.
The evening will kick off with live bands and enlightening beats from Ancient India, henna painting for those keen on a little extra Eastern style & lantern making station for those with a creative flare! A wisdom talk to learn more about the story of Diwali, the banishment of King Rama and his joyous return to Ayodhya. What does this all mean to you and me? Let's find out at Diwali!
