Im going to India on February! I love people from India, my step dad is Hindu and I absolutely fall in love with this country, culture and language ! :) Im from Poland.
Happy Diwali! :)
thxxxx welcome to india
I’m glad your in love with India. But just correct your statement, Languages not Language 😀
xox_ martyna you are very much welcome mam.
Happy Diwali 🪔!! I went on a overnight cruise in Vietnam 🇻🇳 last year and I met a group of Indian travellers. We danced and sung all night; to a mixture of Aussie electronica, and traditional Indian music 😁😂. Today my friend sent me a message: “Happy Diwali”, which brings me here 😄
I love my India and my Hinduism😍 thank God I'm in safe religion 😎🤗 proud Hindu
When did India become a religious country?
@Arjun Chauhan where did it said, I can't see in any Indian text. Hindu is not a religion, the word is came from Britisher to describe our
culture(as in history), and vedas didn't mention any religion like hindu they told real knowledge not belief(Hinduism is actually a way of life not a type of belief). India is not a religion country for people to believe but it was a seeking country were so Many people came to know pure knowledge in there. If God is their there is no need to make a religion or any belief to get the pureness of almighty but you have to be pure in heart and soul.
happy diwali everyone :D its diwali today :D and I am german but I am happy that I live in india
Milena Waelde where do u live in India

OK okay
@@telugudata ni
When lord Ram returned home with his wife Sita and Laxman after 14 years of exile ( why and how, a long story), people welcomed him back by lighting diyas with ghee ( say lights). People celebrate the day as diwali by decorating their homes, puja, lights.
This is so beautiful! I love it! I hope I can go to India one day (and see all of this in person)!
Just completed a virtual field trip with my 7 yr old son & India is absolutely beautiful. Their Diwali (Festival of lights) is priceless… This culture is about sharing, giving & loving. Thanks for sharing…
someday I will visit India during Diwali festival
Corrie Kundel Its Diwali now!! Where r u?
Corrie Kundel not me cuz the firecrackers 🎆 I just escaped diwali last November I am not comfortable with firecrackers

@@thomasninan4813 i have a different reason to not like firecrackers. They cause pollution and harm nature. We can spend thousands on firecrackers but can't plant some saplings hardly costing anything . So ive decided to plant saplings in forest at every occasion.i know saplings i plant are not enough but it makes me happy.
Diwali covers a 5 to 7 days period depending on how the Tithi (lunar phases) run.
First Day - Gau Vatsa
Second Day - Dhan Teras
Third Day - Narak Chaturdashi
Fourth Day - Diwali/Deepavali
Fifth Day - Goverdhan Puja
Sixth Day - Bhai Dhoj
Those sound like Mortal Kombat characters lol
This is a beautiful clip. I use this every year in my school for my presentation about Diwali.
lmao
So cool...would love to visit India someday.

I go to India all the time
My curiosity was sparked from the strangest of places. Sims 4 put in new free holiday stuff all for Diwali. The items were so lovely that now I want to learn about the real celebration. Such a beautiful holiday!
That's so beautiful. I love the meaning of it and the celebrations seems so joyful.
I'll visit India someday. hopefully, during Diwali.
I love culture of India..
Most welcome 🙏🕉️
Watch out for scammers when your there, lol

Beautiful and festive!! Thanks for sharing :) Happy Diwali from the USA!!
Happy Diwali, Lakshmi ki jai
If you’re Indian and love to party, have a happy, happy, happy, happy, Diwali,
You messed up Hinduism and Indians.Indians are not only Hindus(although they are in majority),but also Sikhs,Muslims,Christians,Jains and Buddhists.We are one big heterogeneous country united under the banner of India.
The word Hindustan is actually a name given to India by ancient Middle-Easterners ( read Assyrians , Persians).
It refers to the Land in and around river Sindhu (or Hindu in ancient persian - read Zend Avasta).
It is not a reference to the Hindus or Hinduism.
Hinduism is a term coined during the British Raj (not necessarily by the British). It has nothing to do with Ancient India.
Arjun Hindustani Hindustan doesn’t refer to the entire country but merely just the Northern side of India.
PIH just shut up, only indian celebrate diwali, muslim and Christain are outsider,
Sikh, Jain, budh, and off curse hindu, we all celebrate diwali,
We are Indian,
Don'tEvenThink are chutya,even Indonesia got name from River sindhu.
Imdia real name is bharat, and akhand bharat is real india.
Means whole south Asia.
Not only north side. Got it u divider of nation
U muslim.

*YOU RED MY MIND!!!*

@@staticnoice5477 stop being disrespectful
Same India is 🤟🏻🤟🏻
same but im british indian
@Thejuswenithats kinda rude yk
A feast celebrated since the bronze age, amazing!!!
this better than the teacher talking lol
yes
the little girl in the video is my one of my close friends, she's all grown up now :')
The video is very Heart-touching however it missed the essence of Diwali, which is originally called Deepavali - Row of clay lamps, and lightning those Deep aka Diya 🪔🪔🪔 in multitudes for 3-5 days in front of all homes , business and institutions is what sets up the real mood of Diwali and symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, clarity over ignorance and eternity over morality !! Happy Diwali to All 🪔✨🪔✨🪔✨🪔✨🪔✨🪔✨🪔✨🪔✨🪔
I love India.. May JESUS bless INDIA.
:P
♥️♥️
🙏🥰🍫
my country great festivals all indian celebrate Diwali
Happy Diwali guys... may almighty god bless us with prosperity and luck and good thoughts on this day of diwali. May there be no one who has to sleep without four meals a day !!

Thank you very much! I wanted to know more as my good mate is off celebrating with family. I love that it’s a moment to pause and celebrate the good in life 🧡🧡🧡🧡
Me and my family are Indian we celebrate Diwali
India is so fucking awesome. I wish it wasn't so poor and overcrowded, otherwise I'd live there.
Festival of colour and festival of light. So awesome :)
Makes a video about Hindu festival, but starts the video with Taj Mahal
*slow claps*
And NO, Deepavali is not the christmas of India. Deepavali is much more ancient and has no similarities with xmas whatsoever.
GANG GANG GANG. US CRIPS ARE PULLING UP ON GOD
this looks amazing!
India, were colors come to life.
Wale - Lotus flower bomb. This must be the first time I learn of this symbolism, I still need to contextualize it. Happy Diwali 2019!
Happy Diwali!
I am a Muslim but I celebrate diwali and Eid it doesn't matter
Are you Indian

@@miller0079 ok happy Diwali
Very Nice Documentary 😊💐 Thank you for made it this..
Happy Diwali !!!
Happy Deepavali !!!
you should also show about the special food sweets and dishes prepared on Diwali
That opening shot of the Taj Mahal is a hard photo hard to take. The second it opens, its COVERED in tourists. Probably helps to have the pull of Nat Geo behind you when you show up....

An epileptic's worse nightmare.
Mike Kennedy hahah
I am also epileptic but srsly not a. nightmare for me
*cries in epilepsy*
I love it in New Delhi and Mumbai
Just wow
Gonna be honest, I don’t know one Christian that celebrates traditional Christmas values, I’d say the Festival of Lights to Indians is like Hanukkah to Jews, because Jews also celebrate Hanukkah to commemorate a days worth of oil lasting for 8
:)
The Office brought me here.
Never watched but when i searched for the festival on internet it also showed up ahaha
Like any New Year celebration. Diwali is another celebration for the new year. Hoping that all forces of evil will be silenced and defeated. And assuring that goodness and righteousness will prevail.
diwali is a holy festiwal
Indeed a very informative comment
