India is a country that is culturally so rich that it celebrates one or the other festival almost every month. And most of these festivals have their origin in Indian Mythology and there is very interesting stories about them. It is the spiritual and religious richness in India that each festival is related to some or other deity. One of such festivals is the 'festival of lights', Deepawali. Dipavali is the Indian festival that brings a series of festivals with it. One after another it gives a chance to celebrate five festivals together.
Return of Shri Ram Chandra to Ayodhyaa
The most famous legend behind the celebrations of diwali is about the prince of Ayodhya Nagri, Lord Shri Ram Chandra. The story goes like the king of Lanka, Ravan kidnapped Ram Chandra's wife, Sita from the jungle where they were staying as per the instructions of King Dashratha, father of Ram Chandra. Then Ram Chandra attacked Lanka and killed Ravan and released Sita from imprisonment. He returned to Ayodhyaa with his wife Sita and younger brother Lakshamana after fourteen years. Therefore the people of Ayodhyaa decorated their homes as well as the city of Ayodhyaa by lighting tiny diyas all over in order to welcome their beloved prince Shri Ram Chandra and Devi Sita.
Incarnation of Goddess Lakshmi
On the auspicious new moon day, which is 'Amavasyaa' of the Hindi month of Kartik the Goddess of wealth and prosperity, Lakshmi was incarnated. She appeared during the churning of the ocean, which is known as 'Samudra Manthan', by the demons on one side and 'Devataas' on the other side. Therefore the worship of Goddess Lakshmi, the Lakshmi Pujan, on the day of Divali became a tradition.
Lord Krishna Destroyed Demon Narakasur
One famous story behind the celebrations of Diwali is about the demon king Narakasur who was ruler of Pragjyotishpur, a province to the South of Nepal. During a war he defeated Lord Indra and snatched away the magnificent earrings of Mother Goddess Aditi who was not only the ruler of Suraloka but also a relative of Lord Krishna's wife, Satyabhama. Narakasur also imprisoned sixteen thousand daughters of Gods and saints in his harem. With the support of Lord Krishna Satyabhama defeated Narakasur and released all the women from his harem and also restored the magnificent earrings of Mother Goddess Aditi.
The Return of the Pandavas
The great Hindu epic 'Mahabharata' has another interesting story related to the 'Kartik Amavasyaa'. The story reads that 'the Pandavas', the five brothers Yudhishthhira, Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula and Sahdeva, were sentenced thirteen years banishment as a result of their defeat against 'the Kauravas', Duryodhana and his ninety nine brothers, at the game of dice. Therefore they spent thirteen years in the jungles and returned to their kingdom on the day of 'Kartik Amavasyaa'. On their return the people of their kingdom welcomed the Pandavas by celebrating the event by lighting the earthen lamps all over in their city.

![]() धनतेरास, किंवा धनत्रयोदशी ही आश्विन महिन्याच्या १३व्या दिवशी असते. हा दिवशी लक्ष्मी मातेची पुजा केली जाते. दिवाळी उत्सव चालू असताना धनत्रयोदशीस एक आगळेवेगळे स्वरुप येते.
धनत्रयोदशी दंतकथा
धनत्रयोदशी या सणामागे एक मनोवेधक कथा आहे. कथित भविष्यवाणी प्रमाणे हेमा राजाचा पुत्र आपल्या सोळाव्या वर्षी मृत्युमुखी पडणार असतो. आपला पुत्राने जीवनाची सर्व सुख उपभोगावीत म्हणुन राजा व राणी त्याचे लग्न करतात. लग्नानंतर चवथा दिवस हा तो मृत्युमुखी पडण्याचा भयंकर दिवस असतो. या रात्री त्याची पत्नी त्यास झोपू देत नाही. त्याच्या अवतीभवती सोन्या चांदीच्या मोहरा ठेवल्या जातात. महालाचे प्रवेशद्वार ही असेच सोन्या चांदीने भरून रोखले जाते. सर्व महालात मोठमोठ्या दीव्यानी लखलखीत प्रकाश केला जातो. ती त्यास वेगवेगळी गाणी व गोष्टी सांगुन जागे ठेवते. जेव्हा यम राजकुमाराच्या खोलीत सर्परुपात प्रवेश करण्याचा प्रयत्न करतो तेंव्हा त्याचे डोळे सोन्या चांदीने दिपतात. या कारणास्तव यम आपल्या जगात(यमलोकात) परततो. अश्या प्रकारे तिने राजकुमाराचे प्राण वाचवले. म्हणुनच या दिवसास यमदीपदान असेही म्हणतात. या दिवशी सायंकाळी घराबाहेर दिवा लाउन त्याच्या वातीचे टोक दक्षिण दिशेस करतात.त्यानंतर त्या दिव्यास नमस्कार करतात. याने अपमृत्यु टळतो असा समज आहे.
धनत्रयोदशी बद्दल अजून एक दंतकथा आहे. ती म्हणजे समुद्र मंथन. जेव्हा असुरांबरोबर इंद्रदेव यांनी महर्षि दुर्वास यांच्या शाप निवाराणास समुद्र मंथन केले, तेव्हा त्यातुन देवी लक्ष्मी प्रगट झाली.
तसेच समुद्र मंथनातून धन्वंतरी अमृतकुंभ बाहेर घेऊन आला. म्हणून धन्वंतरीचीही या दिवशी पुजा केली जाते. या दिवसास धन्वंतरी जयंती असेही म्हणतात.
