The name "Diwali" means "Wheel of Light," or "Lighting up the darkness." This celebration is held in honor of Lakshmi (the goddess who grants wealth), Vishnu (the preserver), Sanksriti (Sanskrit for prosperity), Durga Shakti (majestic mother goddess) and Krishna Vasudeva (Lord Vishnu's friend).

Holi Festival of colors, music, and food.

Holi is a Hindu festival celebrated in March or April. It is a festival of color and music, with people dressing up in bright costumes and dancing through the streets. In some regions, people also eat special foods during this time.

Holi is believed to be one of the oldest festivals on earth. Ancient texts describe how Indra (the king god) tried to convince Vishnu (the preserver god) that he was not worthy of being worshiped by humans because he had only one eye and no other distinguishing traits like other gods did; however, Vishnu refused his offer because he didn't want another person's power over him! Eventually Indra gave up trying make himself seem better than everyone else so they could all be equal humans together!"

Mahashivratri Worship Lord Shiva and seek his blessings.

Mahashivratri is a Hindu festival that celebrates Lord Shiva, the god of destruction and rebirth. The festival falls in the month of Magha (February–March). On this day, it's believed that Lord Shiva took away his power from Parvati when she was angry with him for not fulfilling her wishes. In order to get it back, he had to undergo a severe penance for three days which resulted in him being struck by an arrow made out of spiritual fire called Kalagni which caused him pain until he finally became free from it at nightfall.

On this day you can find people taking part in various religious rituals such as offering prayers or performing rituals near rivers or other bodies of water where they believe that these places act as conduits for spiritual energy flowing through them towards our world here on earth which helps us all stay healthy physically as well mentally by providing us with positive thoughts every single day."

Navratri Nine-day festival of dance, music, and food.
