The festival spiritually signifies the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, good over evil, and hope over despair. The festival preparations and rituals typically extend over a five day period, but the main festival night of Diwali coincides with the darkest, new moon night of the Hindu Lunisolar month Kartika. In the Gregorian calendar, Diwali night falls between mid-October and mid-November.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Inspired by Nehal Mankad<\/p>\n<p>Daniel &#8212; Vocals, Cymbals, Keys and Synths<\/p>\n<p>From the album <a href=\"http:\/\/idea.membrane.com\/songwriter\/daniel-brouse\/Dawning-Of-The-Day\/\"><strong><em>Dawning Of The Day<\/em><\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nby <a href=\"http:\/\/idea.membrane.com\">Daniel Brouse<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Diwali (Deep-a-ville) LYRICS [dih-wah-lee] Light over dark under light over dark under light over dark under light over dark light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, good over evil, and hope over despair Right, I see the light I&#8217;m on my way there light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance Fairness and tolerance Defeat arrogance Unseat indifference [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[6,7,195,9,1806,14],"tags":[198,2835,2846,2687,1819,312,458,487,541,556,578,613,2259,998,759,778,782,2113,897],"class_list":["post-10102","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-chords","category-christmas-music","category-dance","category-daniel","category-digital-yoda","category-lyrics","tag-daniel-brouse","tag-dawning-of-the-day","tag-diwali","tag-edm","tag-electronic-dance-music","tag-free","tag-keyboards","tag-live","tag-mp3-downloads","tag-music","tag-new","tag-original","tag-philadelphia-psychedelia","tag-psychedelic","tag-singer","tag-song","tag-songwriter","tag-synthesizer","tag-vocals"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10102","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10102"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10102\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10116,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10102\/revisions\/10116"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10102"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10102"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kingarthur.com\/songwriter\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
