About

Diwali, the Festival of Lights, commemorates the auspicious return of Lord Śrī Rāmacandra to Ayodhyā, when the people welcomed Him by lighting lamps throughout the kingdom. This sacred occasion reminds us of the triumph of dharma over adharma, light over darkness, and spiritual knowledge over ignorance.

Join us for an evening of devotional kirtan, spiritual wisdom, Indian Classical music & dance, and festive joy as we glorify Lord Śrī Rāmacandra and reflect on the timeless wisdom of the Vedic tradition.

Delicious Vegetarian Indian Dinner prasadam will be served.

All are welcome
