Festivities usually lasts for five days, and include gathering with family members, sharing tasty food, watching spectacular fireworks, and visiting temples. Streets, houses, shops, and public buildings are decorated with small oil lamps made from a clay called “diyas,” illuminating them with a warm, festive glow.

This part of the festival acknowledges the Hindu god Lord Rama and the legend of his return to his kingdom after fourteen years in exile. Light symbolizes purity, good luck, and power. Hindus in cities and villages across the world also believe that during Diwali the Hindu goddess of wealth, Lakshmi, will visit their homes if they are illuminated, clean, and beautifully decorated. Lakshmi puja, which involves a prayer ritual, is also a significant part of the Hindu religion. It’s a time to give thanks and pray for a good harvest.

Although Diwali is a Hindu Festival and Dubai is a multicultural city and so is our workplace Newcom, the festival was celebrated with true Spirit with family and friends. At NEWCOM, though we call ourselves Newcom Squad, we are a family, and we call our community NEWCOM-RS.
