Diwali 2026: दिवाली की शुरुआत कब हुई? राम, कृष्ण, लक्ष्मी और काली से जुड़ी 7 कहानियां | Deepavali

Is Diwali really celebrated only to mark Lord Rama’s return to Ayodhya? The story of Diwali is much older and more diverse than many people think. From the return of Lord Rama to the victory of Lord Krishna over Narakasura, from Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesha’s worship to Kali Puja in Bengal, Diwali carries different meanings across India. For Jains, it marks Lord Mahavira’s nirvana, while Sikhs celebrate Bandi Chhor Divas in memory of Guru Hargobind Sahib’s release from Gwalior Fort. क्या दिवाली सिर्फ भगवान राम के 14 साल के वनवास के बाद अयोध्या लौटने की खुशी में मनाई जाती है? अगर ऐसा है, तो दिवाली पर लक्ष्मी-गणेश की पूजा क्यों होती है? बंगाल में मां काली की पूजा क्यों की जाती है और दक्षिण भारत में नरकासुर वध की कहानी क्यों सुनाई जाती है? दिवाली का इतिहास एक कहानी तक सीमित नहीं है। इस त्योहार से भगवान राम की वापसी, भगवान कृष्ण की नरकासुर पर जीत, समुद्र मंथन से मां लक्ष्मी का प्रकट होना, राजा बलि, जैन धर्म में महावीर स्वामी के निर्वाण और सिख इतिहास में बंदी छोड़ दिवस जैसी कई परंपराएं जुड़ी हैं। Video Chapters: 00:00 – Is Diwali Only About Lord Rama? 02:05 – The Story of Rama’s Return to Ayodhya 04:12 – Krishna and the Narakasura Legend 06:00 – King Bali and Bali Pratipada 07:05 – Sikhism and Bandi Chhor Divas 07:45 – One Festival, Many Stories #diwalihistory #deepawali #indianculture #diwalistories #explained #kadak Kadak is an evidence-first fact-checked data led digital video magazine delivering sharp micro explainers, mini-documentaries, and on-ground reports on current affairs, geo politics, cinema, podcast, cricket, financial literacy, share market updates etc that shaping India and world today.
