Festivals of light are universal throughout all of human history and culture, no matter how distinct or separate the latter might be. The Hindu Diwali literally means “row of lights,” just like our lighted pumpkins and rows of Christmas lights, not to mention the traditions of Hanukkah, Day of the Dead, or the Hungry Ghost. Lights have traditionally been used to support the sun and its warmth, at the very least to preserve it in the end-times of the year. They are also used to assist our daily activities as much as they are used to help guide the dead, spirits and ghosts searching for rest. If unable to find the other side these spirits can become trapped. Is it possible with the universal abandonment of the old ways, and the degrading of them by major institutional religions, that there is a clogged purgatory of spirits trapped in agony?

Also, how do eastern and western views on ghosts differ and how are they similar? *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.
