| 522 Deepavali（排灯节，屠妖节）的意义是什么？ |
| |
Nov 13, 2012: What is the significance of the Deepavali Festival? Bhagawan explains to us on this festive and holy Deepavali day.
I desire that festivals should be celebrated, understanding their inner significance. Deepavali is a special day for getting rid of all the bad qualities in us. As long as the demonic qualities remain, you will be immersed in darkness. The destruction of the demon Narakasura symbolizes destruction of evil and restoration of virtuousness. Also, on Deepavali day, a whole array of lamps are lit by the light from one lamp. That One lamp symbolises the Supreme Effulgent Lord. The other lamps are the light in individual selves. The truth of the Vedic saying, "The One willed to become the Many" (Ekoham Bahushyaam) is exemplified by the lighting of lamps from the flame of one. Another significant fact is that, wherever the lamp may be placed, the flame goes upwards only and never down. Likewise, the flame of Spiritual Wisdom (Jnana) always leads you to a sublime level through the path of Righteousness.

| 我希望庆祝节日要了解其内在意义，Deepavali（排灯节）是个特殊的日子，用来除去我们内在所有的坏习性。这些邪恶习性一日存在，你就一日在黑暗中。屠杀阿修罗Narakasura，象征毁灭邪恶，复兴美德。另外，在Deepavali这一天，也用一盏灯来点燃一整排灯，那一盏灯象征光辉的至上主，其它的灯是众生内在之光。这个从一盏灯点燃其它灯的过程，为吠陀经的那句真理：“太一意欲由‘一’变成‘多’”，提供了例子。另外一个有意义的事实是：灯不论放在哪里，其火焰都是笔直向上，绝不往下。般若智能的火焰亦然，它永远带你经由义的道路，达到一个崇高的境界。
