Megha Ray Advocates An Animal-Friendly Diwali
Recalling her fondest Diwali memories from childhood, she shared, “I actually have at all times celebrated a silent Diwali. I’ve never liked noisy crackers, but phuljadis have at all times been my favorite and still bring an enormous smile to my face. I’ve spent all my Diwalis with phuljadis, and later I attempted chakris and annars. My sweetest memories are of twiddling with friends in my constructing or celebrating in Odisha with my cousins. I still remember the designs on the old firecracker packets they’ve a nostalgic value.”
As someone who believes in celebrating responsibly and protecting animals from distress, Megha added, “I like silent Diwalis and being an animal lover, I get very disturbed seeing how scared they get due to loud sounds. Even sick people or those that need rest suffer during this time. It’s essential to rejoice responsibly because our enjoyment shouldn’t cause suffering to others. I’ve stopped bursting crackers and like using eco-friendly things. If I light phuljadis, I do it in a corner to scale back smoke. Now I only light one or two and stop. I don’t spend money on crackers I prefer lighting diyas, eating good food, and spending time with my family for a peaceful and eco-friendly Diwali.”
Megha’s reflections beautifully capture the essence of Diwali a celebration rooted in light, love, and gratitude. Through her words, she reminds everyone that the true spirit of the festival lies in togetherness and mindful joy.
