Happy Diwali to my Family and Friends! Diwali is a celebration of the spiritual victory of light over dark, good over evil, and knowledge over darkness. In Sikh tradition, Diwali celebrates the release of Guru Hargobind, the sixth Sikh Guru, and 52 other princes with him in 1619. According to the story, the Emperor would only release those that could hold on to Guru Hargobind’s coat tails – to limit the number of people who can be released with him. Guru Hargobind made one with 52 strings so all the princes could be freed. Today, Sikhs celebrate this on Diwali by lighting the golden temple.
