How Indians Celebrate Diwali In Australia?

Diwali, the Indian festival of lights is celebrated in Australia with the same fervour and enthusiasm seen in Indian streets. Australian cities like Melbourne and Sydney have traffic congestion during Diwali celebrations. This year, the Indian diaspora is celebrating their 22nd Diwali celebrations in Australia. 

This island country, partially surrounded by the Indian Ocean, has already embraced Indian migrants with all their ethnicity and culture as part of the Australian community. The Prime Minister of Australia, Scott Morrison was delighted to give Diwali wishes to Indians and said that Diwali’s message of light and hope is rather significant in this time of the year. 

Before 1998, Diwali celebrations were private affairs. Since 1998 till date, it is a grand public ceremony with dazzling fireworks, delicious food stalls- serving Indian sweets and savouries, ethnic dance and cultural performances, Mehendi stalls to paint henna-art on hands, burning effigy of King Ravana etc. 

Almost all Indians living in Australia become a part of Diwali celebrations regardless of their religion and caste, after all, it is an Indian festival, and cultural diversity is in the blood. Women are seen with their finest jewellery, traditional outfits and Mehendi on palms. Even Australians take part in Diwali celebrations with their Indian friends and families. 

By celebrating Diwali, Indians are spreading the greatest message of spirituality to the Australian community “the awareness of inner light”. That light, which has the power to win over all darknesses in the world. With the ever-rising number of the Indian population in Australia, Diwali celebrations will continue to prosper in the coming years with shimmering lights and lanterns all around celebrating life.

Happy Diwali It's the "Festival of Lights" today, It's again the day of Diwali, It's time to dress up folks, It's time to adorn the thali. It's the occasion to throng the temples, Pray to the Gods and give them offerings, It's an opportunity to entreat the deities, To bless us all and rid us of sufferings. It's the day to light the diyas, Ignite the rockets and burst crackers, But it's also the time to be safe, From the fireworks and all the sparklers. It's the season to pay a visit, To all our friends and relations, To hand them over sweets and presents, Diwali is our splendid chance. Denied of laughter and smiles for days, They know not what it is to enjoy, Can you not share something you have, Can you not bring them a little joy? When you can make someone else smile When you can be someone's ally That's when you can yourself be glad That's when you'll have a HAPPY DIWALI!

The Indian Sun - The Best Indian Food In Indian Restaurants In Australia, Melbourne, Sydney

The Indian Sun provides comprehensive coverage of Indian cuisine and restaurants in Australia, including Melbourne and Sydney. The Indian Sun invites you to sample delectable Indian cuisine at Australia's greatest Indian restaurants in Melbourne and Sydney. The best Indian food is served in Indian restaurants in Australia, particularly in Melbourne and Sydney.

Anjum Anand, award-winning food writer and chef, offers Diwali advice.

Diwali is the time of year when award-winning cuisine writer and chef Anjum Anand celebrates, cooks a feast, and shares it with her family and friends. Anand grew up in London and has worked at a variety of unique restaurants around the world, including Café Spice in New York, the Mondrian Hotel in Los Angeles, and the Park Royal Hotel's Indian restaurant in New Delhi, enjoys excellent and fashionable food that is easy to prepare at home. In an exclusive interview with The Indian Sun, Anand said that this year's celebrations will be low-key due of COVID-19. However, she believes that this should not discourage anyone from continuing the festive tradition of cooking and eating with loved ones at home. Anand discusses Diwali in this video, as well as some dishes and ideas for a great Diwali feast.

What does the festival of Diwali mean to you?

Diwali is the Hindu New Year, and after the year we've all had, I believe we should all take advantage of this opportunity to wish for a brighter year ahead. We spring clean our homes in the weeks leading up to Diwali and adorn them with flowers, coloured powders, and candles to welcome Laxmi, the goddess of wealth and success, into our homes and lives. We prepare a feast for friends and family every year. We may not be able to invite them over this year, but we will celebrate, cook, and share, especially with those who do not have family. It's a happy occasion as well as a chance to reflect and plan for the coming year.

What are your plans for the vacation and what will be on the menu?

Because we live in the United Kingdom, we are unable to see friends and family outside the house this year. As a result, this Diwali will be considerably more low-key for us. We can celebrate this year by eating delicious cuisine and spending quality time with immediate relatives (within the household), as well as focusing on bringing in prosperity and happiness for the coming year (which is especially important this year).

Giving something sweet to your friends and family is considered good luck during all Indian festivals, so my family and I always buy a lot of Indian mithai (small self-contained desserts) and Indian sweets the day before Diwali, or in the morning, in the hopes of being able to drop some on the doorsteps of some of our close friends and family.

This year, what Diwali food recipes do you recommend?

Our Diwali table is always vegetarian, and we make every effort to make it unique by using a variety of flavours, textures, and colours. There is always a large bowl of lentils, which provide the meal's protein, as well as a range of vegetables prepared in various ways—some stir-fried with spices, others cooked in sauces—as well as greens, crunchy bits, and meatier bits, such as mushrooms. Indians are always proud of their vegetarian meals, and you won't miss the meat.

Here are a few of my suggestions:

•             Potato cakes with chickpea chaat from TST.

•             Classic Rice Kheer

•             Crispy Lentil Fritters

•             Egg and Chickpea Biryani

What are some simple cooking tips for those who aren't experts?

Make assured you have a fantastic recipe to follow.

Before you begin cooking, make sure you have all of your items ready, diced, and weighed.

Try to prepare foods ahead of time as much as possible—a biryani, for example, benefits from time, so it may be something you make in the days leading up to Diwali;

Invite others to help—I always include my family in the preparation of our Diwali dinner. Also, enquire about your friends' and family's tested recipes.

Also, if you can, consider shortcuts, such as using The Spice Tailor products—biryanis take a long time to prepare, but with ours, you can have something on the table in a matter of minutes.

Also, please see my menu for this year below.

OOC WEEK: country of origin

What country are you from?

i’m from the united states! i was born in central massachusetts, and i lived there for the first eighteen years of my life before i moved to los angeles for school. i definitely can’t say that i have a good grasp on typical bostonian culture tho because i lived in the suburbs (but i do fuckin know it’s more than casey goddamn affleck throwing dunkins cups at people’s cars), and i haven’t been in california long enough to really feel “west coast” or “LA” so we’ll see how this goes!!!!!!!

What is your first language? Do you speak any other languages?

english! it’s the only language i speak, but i learned latin in high school.

What language would you like to learn?

i honestly hate learning languages. i will say that it’s probably my least favorite thing because i’m impatient and require instant gratification, and learning a language is such a process of discipline that i don’t have. but, barring that, i’d really want to learn hindi because i never learned it as a kid or german because i loved the linguistic similarities between english and latin, and i feel like i’d also enjoy german from a linguistic standpoint.

What’s one movie from your country that you like (or recommend others see)?

ok, so i’m gonna pick a movie Set in Massachusetts to narrow this down a little bit, but the social network??? is such a good depiction of college life in boston??? and spotlight is also great because my mom remembered reading that story in the wall street journal when it broke, and i recognized so many locations in the film, and it just felt....Good.

but also ok even though i didn’t finish nightcrawler (i cannot handle jake gyllenhaal with his eyes buggin out for more than like twenty minutes at a time), it felt like??? a really accurate depiction of LA. obvs la la land is getting a lot of buzz for being such a distinct depiction of LA, but i still feel like nightcrawler got across a better image of it for me.

EXCEPT FOR THE MOMENT WHEN BILL PAXTON’S CHARACTER STIRS A DUNKIN DONUTS CUP OF COFFEE BECAUSE IN WHAT WORLD DOES SOMEONE FROM LA HAVE DUNKINS COFFEE. it’s coffee bean or starbucks or mAybe peet’s if ur lucky, but nEVER DUNKins because there are like 2 of them here bye my rant is done.

Pick a song from your country (or in your language) and talk about why you like it.

i literally was just about to start ranting about the 1975, and then i was like wait tara they’re bRITISH why is all of my music just british boy bands/man bands/girl bands......but!!! i feel like “7/11″ by beyonce is an American Classic, and i couldn’t explain to u why.

Pick a classic song from your country - aka one that everyone knows, one that’s representative of your country, etc.

ok if u play “party in the USA” by miley cyrus at ANY party, EVERYONE will start singing. u can hate the song, u can hate miley, u can not even know the lyrics, but EVERYONE will start singing regardless. it could just be because drunk ppl will follow any trend placed in front of them, but.....in my Professional Opinion, “party in the USA” could be considered a National Anthem of sorts.

What’s a book from your country (or in your language) that you’d recommend?

i really enjoyed “the crucible” even more so because it was set in massachusetts!!! obvs it’s not reflective of Now, but i still really fuckin love it.

What’s your favourite childhood story from your country or culture?

this isn’t a childhood story, but it is definitely my favorite story about my hometown, and it like?? contextualizes where the fuck i grew up. so, there’s a decent sized lake in one of the more residential neighborhoods in town, and in that lake, there’s an island. this old man buys the island. we’re all like ok that’s a little excessive because you can walk around the island in like 20 minutes or less. but then? this old man decides he’s going to name the island. and he REALLY likes busta rhymes, right? so what does he do? he names the island “busta rhymes island”. he doesn’t just stop there. he goes through all of the LEGAL CHANNELS TO OFFICIALLY NAME THIS ISLAND. and now, if you google busta rhymes island, you will see that it officially comes up on google maps in shrewsbury, massachusetts. and that is the town i grew up in.

Talk about a tradition from your country or culture that you love celebrating.

i always hated doing like?? indian things as a kid, idk that’s another issue to unpack on a later date, but i really did enjoy diwali because i had a giant sweet tooth even as a lil kid, and my mom would make me gulab jamuns, and that was the closest i came to actually celebrating anything remotely related to my culture rip rip.

Fave food from your country/culture:

i will always love a good lobster roll and some good ol’ new england clam chowder. but also, i really??? love??? chicken tikka masala.

Best season of the year in your country?

fall and winter in massachusetts are unparalleled to anything i could ever experience in LA ok. the leaves? the snow? the cold? the aesthetic? sign me the fuck up.

What’s one thing that you wish you could change about your country? Why?

let’s go back like 3 months and not elect trump k thnx. that or california should secede from the union.

What’s one thing that you’re proud of about your country?

ok real fuckin proud that massachusetts was the first state to legalize gay marriage in the country!!!!! and that the birth control pill was invented in my home town :’)

Name a country you’d like to visit.

ICELAND. take me to goddamn iceland.

Top three cities you’d like to visit:

sydney, reykjavik, portland.

What’s the best place in your country that you’ve ever visited?

i love san francisco?? i also love phoenix, new york city, and philadelphia.

Have you ever been abroad (out of your country)? If so, where did you go?

i’ve been to italy and greece, england, france, and iceland for like two seconds (hence why i want to go BACK)!

also canada, but i feel like that counts Less.

What are some myths or stereotypes about your country or culture that are either true or are false?

east coast drivers fear no god and give no fucks on the road? True.

people from massachusetts are assholes? True.

everyone is obsessed with dunkin donuts? True.

‘worcester’ is pronounced like worcestershire sauce? FALSE.

massachusetts is liberal heaven? True – to an extent. like, yes, it’s a mostly democratic state, and things are good in comparison to a lot of other places in the country, but that doesn’t change the fact that i’ve seen more trump stickers in massachusetts than i have in los angeles. MA is liberal, but i still think california takes the cake.

massachusetts has legal weed? NOT UNTIL 2018 >:(

Hindu Council connects with UWS students for Diwali

Hindu Council of Australia has made contact with University of Western Sydney (UWS) students and had a low key Diwali sweets distribution with them on 8th November 2018. UWS is one of the premier Universities of Sydney and has over 6,000 Indian students many of them from India, studying in it.

Soup The University holds a light soup and bread session for its Parramatta campus students every Thursday evening at 6pm which provides free food and a place to mingle for all its students. The food distribution is managed by Parramatta Mission and is attended by about 30-40 students every week. Hindu Council put up some posters about Diwali and supplied Kheer and Diwali sweets. The Mission agreed to our request to have vegetarian only soup and bread for the day. About 50 Australian, Asian and Indian students visited the soup kitchen. There was a visible smile on the faces of Indian students familiar with Diwali and their happiness could be seen beaming from their faces.

Kheer for Students on Diwali Soup Day One of the students from Gujarat who has been in UWS for two years came up to me and asked if she can touch my feet as she needs blessings of an elder on this new year day. She touched my feet and her act touched my heart. Students project of Hindu Council aims at connecting University going students with the existing Hindu Community here and to provide emotional support to overseas and away from home students. Bhupinder Chabra and Reshma Krishnappa are helping with this initiative.
