Very nice dishes

Spend diwali with liqour and teen patti everything else is over rated.

Liqour and gambling are not good.

Avoid them please.

Late greetings for you all. Happy Deepavali day!

Deepavali fosters understanding among communities, increase harmony - President
Following is the full text of the message of President Rajapaksa;

I am pleased to send this message on the occasion of Deepavali, which marks the beginning of the Hindu New Year, according to the Lunar Calendar, and is a day of great religious fervor and festivity for the Hindu community.

The festival of Deepavali, or Festival of Lights, celebrates the victory of Goodness over Evil and Light over Darkness. It is thus the deeper celebration of the Light of Knowledge over the Darkness of Ignorance, leading to the triumph of Good over Evil.

The Hindus of Sri Lanka, join their fellow believers the world over today in celebrating this great festival with the worship of deities, spiritual chanting and lighting the flames of worship shrines, and illuminating their homes, combined with the joy of festivity. All of this is an expression of veneration and gratitude to the Hindu deities for the attainment of knowledge and understanding to overcome the evils that arise from ignorance.

This festive day of Deepavali, which underlines the great spiritual values of Hinduism, is filled with the spirit of love and devotion, and is an occasion for Hindus to strive for greater spirituality, foster understanding among communities, and increase harmony among people.

The religious practices and festivities that go with this festival will also add to the spirit of reconciliation that prevails in the country, for which, one looks forward to the eager and active participation of the Hindu community.

May this Festival of Lights bring understanding, peace and joy among all followers of Hinduism.

I wish all Hindus of Sri Lanka a happy and peaceful Deepavali.

Right, mostly poor people are in the firecracker making business, and they earn good money in those days.
Firecrackers are unhealthy activity, causes noise pollution. Why they cannot change their business they can make sweet cuisines, toffies, cakes etc.Aren't they?

there is another heavenly combination of Jalebis with Rabadi. Loads of sugar but delightful match.

Hmm it looks delicious :D

Your logic has two basic flaws......
First, by your logic all types of entertainment should be avoided to help the poor.....going to the Cinemas is a waste of money, treating yourself and your family in a good restaurant once in a while is waste of money when you can make and eat simple food at home, buying high end gadgets is a waste of money.....and so on.....
I'm sure you engage yourself in some of those activities when Pakistan's poverty index is worse than India's.......you have to, because people are not machines, if you deny people(who work hard throughout the year to earn their living) some form of entertainment then they won't be able to work.....entertainment relaxes and rejuvenates the mind and body which helps in increasing the productivity......which helps in keeping the price of products and services low which helps the poor too...
All these Indian festivals serve this entertainment value along with other benefits like socialization etc....
BUT, does that mean we're neglecting the poor, NO, we're giving a portion of our income to the govt.(as tax) just for that purpose, for poverty alleviation and other social welfare activities......


Second, you forget about the unnecessary expenditure you indulge in for the sake of your religion.....
During Eid You buy new clothes when there might be old, unused ones lying in your house, unnecessarily light up your houses/shops, make your women wear Burkas(which costs extra) on top of normal clothes.......but you don't see those as waste of money because of your religious upbringing......which forces you to believe that only your religion is the true one and whatever you do for the sake of it is good/necessary but not what others do for the sake of their religion......


You think burning fire crackers is a waste of money(for us it symbolizes defeating the evil) but I'm sure you don't find anything wrong in Pakistani Muslims spending unnecessarily for Hajj(where they do nothing but make some rounds of the Kaaba and throw stones at a wall-symbolically defeating the evil)
You are comparing firecrackers with our religious practices. I think you are off topic. There is no comparison of Hajj with firecrackers . Only a Psyche can comapre.

What benefit it have for poor hungry ? Insted you work hard and provide them some food ..thats good no ?
Try to write understandable words :D

Kya mai list mai aata hun ?


Nope. Its not an wastage.


Sach mein ? mai try jarur karunga.
How it is not wastage of money? Explain?
