by Sumandeep Thind through Professor Rev. Dr. James Kenneth Powell II, opensourcebuddhism.org. I like your introduction to this topic. Nice to see them all presented first, then a nice touch to go into depth. You let your audience get an overview. I enjoyed getting a deeper notion of the Diwali festival. Seeing the theme of light over darkness via the Rama story interesting. I think it is my favorite. I knew nothing about raksha-bandhan. This bond of protection is really nice. I wish we had such a holiday. Interesting connection with the Draupadi story. The good versus evil continues in the Holi festival. Once again, I did not know the story of Prahlad or the reason for the coloring. I lived through the Dashara festival, as they call it in Nepal. I knew about the Durga nine days, but not about another connection with the Rama story. Nice conclusion with the Shivaratri. I thought your visuals were very nice, music was great and your narration clear and steady.
