As we celebrate Diwali once again this year, the familiar joy and excitement fill the air—but so does the growing focus on material things. We've spent more on expensive clothes, invited more friends, and exchanged bigger, fancier gifts. But amidst all this sparkle, have we ever stopped to ask ourselves—do these material things really make us happy? Or is it the true meaning of the festival that brings real joy to our hearts? Diwali isn’t about material wealth. At its core, the festival carries a much deeper message. In Hinduism, Diwali celebrates the return of Lord Ram to his home—not because he gained a kingdom, but because of the values and lessons his return teaches us. Similarly, in Jainism, Diwali honors Lord Mahavira's attainment of moksha, freedom from the cycle of life and death, which he achieved by letting go of material things and finding true inner peace. When we look at Diwali this way, it becomes clear that the festival is about more than just materialism. It's about true happiness, peace of mind, and the sense of fulfillment that comes from living a content life—not from gathering more possessions.

This Diwali, Let’s Talk About Real Light Diwali isn’t just about lighting up our homes; it's about kindling something within. The diyas and celebrations are symbols of a journey from darkness to light, inviting us to reflect and release what holds us back. As you light a diya, ask yourself: What darkness am I ready to leave behind? We’re often searching for light outside, but here’s the truth: we are the light. So this Diwali, take a moment to reconnect with yourself and let your inner light shine. Not because everything’s perfect, but because you are the light.                                                   Embrace your light. Be the spark that makes a difference this Diwali. If this resonates, share it and help spread the light! https://lnkd.in/dNNyQDEj

As the results are out; a day before Diwali. While many of you are celebrating, I know that for some, today brings a different kind of opinion. To everyone who passed—𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐋𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒!  You’ve worked hard, celebrate every bit of this moment. You deserve it! And to those who didn’t make it through this time—𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘮𝘦, 𝘐 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘺𝘰𝘶. 𝘐 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘦.   But let me tell you this,  𝐂𝐀 𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐦𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐨 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮. Today may not be your day, but that doesn’t define your journey. This result isn’t the end; it’s just a chapter. Don’t let one result take away your Diwali spirit. Take a pause, enjoy the festival, and let the warmth of Diwali be a reminder of new beginnings and brighter days ahead. Remember, CA is one of the toughest journeys out there. 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶’𝘳𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘩 𝘢𝘭𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘮𝘰𝘴𝘵. So, light that diya tomorrow not just for Diwali but for your inner strength, your dedication, and your dreams. Keep going, because that's the only way to move forward. Wishing everyone strength, peace, and a Diwali filled with light and hope. And Happy Choti Diwali to you all.     P.S: Last year, during Diwali I remember myself engaged in book so deeply that I had no time to see what is happening around. Not celebrating it a bit with happiness because of the stress of exams. But when I recall that part, It makes me smile that everything happens for a reason. So, Let’s not loose hope even for a single moment. #CAResults #Resilience #DiwaliHope #KeepGoing #Diwali #StrengthInJourney #ICAI #CAFoundation #CAIntermediate

Happy Diwali to All Who Celebrate!! As Diwali fills homes with lights and colours, it’s a beautiful reminder of the triumph of light over darkness, a theme that resonates deeply beyond the celebration itself. In life, and particularly in the work of mindset, this theme serves as a powerful metaphor. Light represents clarity, purpose, and growth, while darkness often stands for the doubts, fears, and limiting beliefs that can hold us back. Just as Diwali’s divas and fireworks illuminate the night, each of us has the ability to find light within, no matter how challenging our circumstances. In my work, I’ve seen time and again that a simple shift in mindset can bring us closer to our goals, help us navigate tough times, and ultimately guide us toward a brighter version of ourselves. It’s not always easy, but it’s always possible. So as you celebrate this Diwali, may you invite more light into your life, more hope, more kindness, more strength. Wishing everyone celebrating a Diwali filled with love, laughter, and lasting joy. And to all my network, may you find light in every corner of your life, today and always. #Diwali #FestivalOfLights #Mindset #Coaching #LightOverDarkness #HappyDiwali

Embrace the Light and Let Go: Diwali’s Real Meaning Diwali is more than a festival of lights; it’s a time to reflect, to clear out what doesn’t belong, and to make space for what truly matters. 🪔 Why Diwali Matters Today In a world of constant demands and distractions, it’s easy to lose focus on what’s important. Diwali is a reminder to pause and think about our path, our priorities, and how we use our time. It’s about letting go of the unnecessary and focusing on what gives us purpose. Use Diwali as a Moment to Realign Just as we declutter our homes, it’s a chance to clear the mental clutter, too. Let go of distractions and doubts. Focus on clarity, on meaningful work, and on the relationships that truly matter. Make Diwali Personal Each diya we light can represent a step toward a life with purpose. Take a moment to commit to small actions that align with who you want to be. Remember: it’s the little steps that bring real change. So, this Diwali, celebrate with friends and family, but also celebrate the power of focus, purpose, and clear priorities. Embrace the light within and around you. Wishing you all a purposeful and peaceful Diwali. 🪔 #diwali #diwali2024

Wishing you a Diwali filled with prosperity, harmony and happiness. As we decorate our homes with lamps, work on lighting up hearts with kindness and love. May I suggest it is also imperative to utilize this pious opportunity to declutter the mind, body and soul. Decluttering would entail self-reflection which is a deep analysis of one's beliefs, behaviours and interactions. I tend to take advantage of Diwali as a compass, pointing me in the direction of simplicity and thoughtfulness. This helps navigating through challenges and grasp opportunities. Have a fabulous Diwali, share the Diwali light to cleanse your emotions while also strengthening ties. Tarun Ghulati
