Deepotsava is the festival of lights. It is believed, in one aspect, to originate from Lord Rama's era. It is said that while he was coming back from Lanka, defeating Ravana and freeing MotherSita, whole Ayodhya was decorated with flowers and lamps. Lamps mean deep or dweep in Hindi and Utsava means festival. Thus, originated Deepotsava, the festival of lights.
