Diwali is the occasion which bears witness to the power of goodness in the world. It symbolises the path from ignorance to knowledge by the movement from darkness to light. It is the knowledge which leads to action, action to improve the standard of living, to spur us to successful enterprise, to help others lessrnfortunate than ourselves. This is the essence of the book Ramayana, to give people protection, affection and correction. Diwali also symbolises the true entrepreneurial spirit of India, the pursuit of wealth and prosperity. Its neither about ritual nor religion. Its about universal message of love, peace, happiness and harmony.rnOur distinguished panel of speakers for the event includedrnrnrnMr. Duncan Pegg, Member of ParliamentrnrnrnHon.
