Day 1 (1st November,2013)

Dhanteras

This day marks the starts of Diwali. 'Dhan' refers to wealth while 'trayodashi' means thirteenth day. Therefore, Dhanteras is literally translated as wealth on the thirteenth day. On this day,we pray to Goddess Laskmi, asking her for her blessings in the form of wealth. She is also asked to provide prosperity in all business endeavours for the coming year. Dhanteras is considered a very auspicious day and is celebrated with great pomp, especially by members of the trading community.

Day 4 (4th November, 2013)

Padva

Govardhan Puja

The fourth day of Diwali is usually celebrated as the New Year for most Hindus and is called as Bestavarsh/Padva. It is believed that Lord Krishna gave his protection to a cowherd family in Vrindavan to save them from the anger of Lord Indra. Hence this day is also termed as Annakoot. The tradition of worshipping Govardhan was initiated by Lord Krishna, who made the people of Vraja perform a puja in the dedication of Govardhan. Since then, every year, people have been performing the Govardhan puja.
