what is depavai/dewali...... please read on
You need to read the book Ramayana to understand this. This is a part of Hinduism and I'll summer size what's in there.
The books is about fictitious king Rama and queen Sita who lived in India and a war between an island called Lanka which lies towards south of India.
People who live in this island are monsters and their king is Ravana. Once Ravana comes to indina and steel sita and kidnapped her to Lanka and hide her there.
Therefore Rama invade Lanka with the help of his hanuma (gymnastic monkey) the army commander and rescue Sita and bring her to India. When they return to India sun is about to set and the area is getting dark, and the couple had been welcome at Ayodya by people by lighting candles. This victory celebration is call dewali or Deepavali......
Brakmin wrote this book to destroy buddhism after destroying busshism in India. This had been the plan to destroy buddhism in Sri Lanka.
Kalinga Maga was the first one to activate this plan, since this comes as a part of their religion.
