SUMMARY:Puthandu (Hindu)
DESCRIPTION:Today is Puthandu (also called Puthuvarudam or Tamil New Year). Many Hindus consider today the solar new year and mark the occasion  by thanking God/Universe for another new year and new beginnings. \nTraditional celebrations include an elaborate feast with 6 different tastes – sweet\, sour\, spice (hot)\, salt\, bitter and ‘thuvarpu’ (like Umami). This is to symbolize that our life is filled with different experiences and emotions and remember to embrace and enjoy them all. Celebrants will typically make one dish with all of these tastes in it. The recipe is all about balancing each of the ingredients\, like the recipe to a balanced life. \nYou can learn more about this holiday here. \nTraditional Tamil greetings include: “Puthāaṇdu vāazhthugal!” or “Iṉiya puthaandu nalvāazhthugal!”\, which is equivalent to “Happy new year”.

SUMMARY:Diwali (Hindu / Jain)
DESCRIPTION:One of the most popular festivals of Hinduism\, Diwali symbolizes the spiritual “victory of light over darkness\, good over evil and knowledge over ignorance.” Light is a metaphor for knowledge and consciousness.

The preparations and observances typically last five days. \nDiwali\, also known as Deepawali or Mahavir Nirvana\, is of special significance in Jainism\, as it also marks the anniversary of Nirvana (final release or liberation) of Mahavir\, the 24th and the last Jain Tirthankara. It is celebrated at the same time as the Hindu festival of Diwali or Deepawali. \nMore information about the Jain celebrations of this holiday can be found here. \nMore information about Hindu celebrations of this holiday can be found here.
