Seasonal Reading
Six-Day Diwali Reading Plan for Light Up The Darkness
Light Up The Darkness may be read as a single book, but it is especially suited to a six-day Diwali reading experience. Each day gives the group a focused theme for reading, reflection, and discussion.
Day 1 — Make Room
Theme: Preparing the inner and outer space for light.
Discussion: What must be cleared, simplified, or made ready before light can be received?
Day 2 — Clear What Obscures
Theme: Removing what dims perception, honesty, gratitude, and welcome.
Discussion: What obscures light in modern life, and what practices help us see more clearly?
Day 3 — Welcome
Theme: Opening the door to light, guest, stranger, memory, and return.
Discussion: What does true welcome require from a person, a family, or a community?
Day 4 — Honor What Sustains
Theme: Remembering what has carried us through darkness.
Discussion: What people, traditions, places, stories, or practices sustain light across generations?
Day 5 — Let Light Become Love
Theme: Allowing light to become service, compassion, courage, and care.
Discussion: How does inner light become visible in the way we treat others?
Day 6 — Carry Through the Year
Theme: Refusing to let the light disappear when the festival ends.
Discussion: What would it mean to carry Diwali's light through ordinary days, difficult seasons, and the year ahead?
