Diwali, a festival of lights is a Hindu festival that originated in Hindustan Diwali is the most hoped-for festival for individuals of all age teams. People begin getting ready for this festival, well in advance. Thorough cleaning, painting and decorating of houses is done before the onset of the celebrations for this festival. The pious festival of Diwali is well known for 5 consecutive days, with each day having its own significance and set of rituals.Which begins on Dhanteras and ends on Bhaiya Dooj

During five days of celebration, various ceremonials are followed and with Goddess Lakshmi several other Gods and Goddesses are worshipped. However, Goddess Lakshmi is the most significant goddess during Diwali Puja. The new moon day, which is known as Amavasya is the most significant day of five days Diwali festivities and known as Lakshmi Puja, Lakshmi-Ganesh Puja, and Diwali Puja.

Diwali Puja is done not only in families but also in offices. Diwali Puja is a significant day for most traditional Hindu businessmen. On this day, ink bottles, pens, and new account books are worshipped. Ink bottle and pen, which are called Davit (दावात) and Lakhani (लेखनी) respectively, are sanctified by worshipping Goddess Maha Kali on them. New account books, which are called Bahi-Khate (बही-खाते), are blessed by worshipping Goddess Sarasvati on them.

The most auspicious time to do Diwali Puja is after sunset. The time period after sunset is known as Pradosh. The day of Diwali Puja is decided when Amavasya Tithi prevails during Pradosh. Hence no other Diwali Puja Muhurat is as good as Puja Muhurat during Pradosh even if it is available for one Ghati (approximately 24 minutes).
