Diwali is indeed a joyous occasion for millions around the world, when the love, energy

To all members of the Lohana Community of North London,
Namaste.
Jay Swaminarayan and Jay Shri Krishna.
As we approach the auspicious festival of Diwali, we would like to offer our heartfelt
prayers and best wishes to our dear friends at the Lohana community in North London,
and across communities in the UK.
Diwali is one of the most vibrant and meaningful festivals of the year for millions of Hindus
around the world. The dispelling of darkness with light symbolises the triumph of good
over evil. As the world emerges from the coronavirus pandemic, as well as other
adversities, Diwali’s universal and enlightening messages of faith, hope, goodness and
community are a source of hope and inspiration.
May the New Year bring peace and prosperity, may the divine light of Bhagwan
Swaminarayan, Shri Radha-Krishna, Shri-Sita Rama, Shri Shiva-Parvati, His Holiness
Pramukh Swami Maharaj, and all our revered deities and sages bring happiness and
fulfilment. May everyone in your community and beyond be enlightened.
With our innermost prayers and best wishes,
Sadhu Keshavjivandas
