If people have hatred and jealousy in their hearts, their Diwali will be incomplete.

That is the strong message that was shared by the National Vice President Culture and Religion of the Shree Sanatan Dharm Pratinidhi Sabha of Fiji, Vigyan Sharma.

While speaking at the Diwali celebration at the Shiv Mandir in Samabula yesterday, Sharma says together with cleaning homes, people should also clean their heart by removing hatred and jealousy.

He adds the Goddess Laxmi may come in every home but she does not stay in every home because she looks at the type environment the family is living in

Sharma adds the true meaning of Diwali is to invite those who may not be able to celebrate Diwali this year and include them in your happiness.
