I spent the evening teaching my younger brother how to light the lamps properly without letting the wind blow them out. It felt like passing on a small but significant piece of our culture, ensuring that the flame of tradition keeps burning for another generation. Dhanteras is about the continuity of faith and the quiet strength we find in repeating the rituals of our ancestors. May your family stay close, your traditions stay alive, and your hearts stay full of the light of understanding.
