Diwali, the festival of lights is celebrated with gusto in Karnataka. Diwali is regarded as an ancient festival in Karnataka and has been celebrated for ages and the popularity of the festival is on the rise with each passing year. The glitters, the gifts, the joys and the high spiritedness associated with Diwali touches the life of one and all and everybody gets spontaneously involved in celebrating the triumph of good over evil, light over darkness. Diwali is also considered to be a festival that ushers in wealth and prosperity.
The celebration of Diwali Festival in Karnataka is integrally associated with a legend of the three
steps of land. Emperor Bali had acquired great powers and became a potent threat to the peace of the Universe. Lord Vishnu was implored by the other Gods to do something that would curb Bali's powers. Lord Vishnu descended on the earth in the guise of a short Brahmin and asked for a curious gift from Bali. He asked for "as much land as three of my footsteps would cover." It is not customary that the king should refuse the Brahman's appeal for charity, Bali granted what seemed to him a trifling request. Lord Vishnu now resumed his all-pervasive, omnipresent form and covered the heavens with one foot and the world below with another. He now asked where was he supposed to place his third step upon which Bali bowed before him and offered his own head for him to place his foot on. This submission of Bali to Lord Vishnu is celebrated on the day of the new moon when the month of Ashwin (October-November) makes way for the month of Kartik.
During Diwali in karnataka, countless lamps are lit and the festive air is rent by the sounds of the firecrackers. New clothes are bought and sweets are exchanged. Enjoyments reach a crescendo at the night when the sky is illumined by the fire sparks emanating from the crackers. People participate wholeheartedly in celebrating the triumph of light over darkness.
