________________ JAIN FESTIVALS Diwali Another festival we celebrate is Diwali or the 'festival of lights'. We celebrate this festival because this is when Mahävir Bhagawan attained liberation. Some people celebrate Diwäli by playing with fireworks, but we, as Jains, do not, because fireworks kill insects and other bugs in the air. On Diwali we celebrate Mahävir Bhagawan's nirvana and participate in pujä and other activities at temple.
