"Whether you understand it or not, God loves you, is present in you, lives in you, dwells in you, calls you, saves you and offers you an understanding and compassion which are like nothing you have ever found in a book or heard in a sermon." —#ThomasMerton⠀

Happy #Diwali to all who celebrate! This #FestivalofLights is one of the most important #Hindu holidays. Often compared to Christmas in the West, the five-day holiday is celebrated with different forms of light to symbolize the victory of good over evil.
