My muslim friends are staunch believers in astrology, they goto temples, church, worship nadu veedu and so on. People in my family goto mosques and darghas. I wonder why people are surprised to discover this and make news which has been happening for centuries!

These days lots of Hindus and Muslims are marrying too. Whats the big deal?

Today, Hindus around the world celebrate Holi, the festival of colors, and nowhere is it more raucous than in India. Kids and grownups filled their water balloons and water guns yesterday, and have packets of colored powder ready to ambush friends, neighbors and strangers. "If you're spotlessly clean, you're a target," write Mithil Aggarwal and Max Butterworth for NBC. Here's their story about the meaning of the festival and how it is celebrated — complete with some absolutely stunning photography.

Happy Diwali!

This five-day festival symbolizes the victory of light over darkness, knowledge over ignorance, and good over evil. It is a time for cleaning, decorating, and lighting homes with diyas (oil lamps) to welcome prosperity and dispel negativity.

Chrismukkah isn't the only hybrid holiday around. Diwaloween (or maybe, Hallowali) comes every few years, when Diwali, the festival of light, coincides with Halloween. This year is the first time it's happened since 2016. Here, Religion News looks at how it's celebrated, from trick-or-treating at the temple to sparklers lighting the night, and what it says about South Asian American culture. “I think this is a sign of one of the many ways that Hindu and other South Asians who celebrate Diwali and festivals this time of year are making America their own in some way and participating in these rituals,” said Shana Sippy, associate professor of religion and chair of Asian studies at Centre College.
