Celebrating Diwali with food, music, dancing and ‘vibes’ at the Genesis Centre
Over 700 people danced, ate, sang and celebrated Diwali Saturday night at the Genesis Centre in northeast Calgary.
It was the annual “Festival of Light” sponsored by the India Society of Calgary who were there for a good time, according to Akshay Gulati, an advisor with organization.
“It’s all about inner peace, prosperity, it is about truth over evil,” said Gulati. “We are getting together and we are celebrating that.”
According to a media release, “Diwali is one of the most significant and joyous festivals in India, celebrated with grandeur across the globe.”
The event included cultural performances, Indian cuisine, interactive activities and a ceremonial lighting of Diyas (oil lamps) which symbolize hope, prosperity and the victory of good over evil.
“I feel like it’s important to celebrate each day and each moment, but diwali is a very big festival for us,” said Gulati.
“We all get together and it’s all about combining all those positive vibes together to make a bigger positive environment – and all about those vibes.”
