The Celebrations, and Festival Filled Lifestyle Of Indians

India is the divine land of Gods and a country full of different cultures, languages, rituals, and festivals. From the extreme north to the extreme south and the extreme east to the extreme west, there are festivals and celebrations throughout the year.

Celebrations and festivals are part of the lifestyle of Indians. People here believe that their roots are connected to the mythological stories, and every single story is a true fact. And most of the festivals also originated from the mythological events. Like Dipawali/Diwali is observed as the home-coming of Lord Ram with his wife Goddess Sita after defeating the Ravana in Sri Lanka. That day, people of Ayodhya lit up thousands of Diyas to welcome their beloved Lord Rama. Another festival belongs to Lord Rama and Ravana which is Dussehra. It was the day when Lord Rama killed Ravana and the day is celebrated to mark the win of GOOD over EVIL.

India is home to many different languages like Punaji, Hindi, Tamil, Urdu, Bengali, Gujarati, and many more regional languages. And there are festivals related to every language.

Here is a list of state-wise festivals of India. And they are not even half of all Indian festivals.

Festivity runs in the veins of Indians. There is no other country in the world which can surpass India in terms of festivals and festivity-filled lifestyle of Indians. And when it comes to celebrating the festivals, there are different ways and different traditions in different communities. Indians also love to spend a hefty amount for prepping up for the celebrations.

All the festivals have some meaning, and the traditions are both weird and different. The only way to indulge in the celebrations is to witness the festivals.

Indians can even turn small happy moments in festivals with their quality of celebrating things grandly.
