AS A Christian of Indian origin, with friends and family who are Hindu, I want to use this opportunity to wish a happy Diwali to all who are celebrating.
But as I do so, I wonder how many Hindus, and all people of faith, are living up to our mission of bringing light into the darkness of this world.
The timing of Diwali at this time of year is because (at least in the Northern hemisphere) the days are getting shorter and the nights darker.
