Gudi Padwa witnesses street processions, dancing, delicious festival delicacies, and obviously vibrant decorations around the houses. In Maharashtrian culture, a Gudi is mostly referred to as the flag that hangs outside of your house and is noticeably celebrating this festival.

Historical Significance of Gudi Padwa

If you closely observe the Hindu mythology, it is believed that Lord Brahma created the entire universe on the day Gudi Padwa. Not only that, people firmly believe he taught the world the notions of days, weeks, months, years, and festivals. This is the mythical logic for why this day is celebrated.

There is also a ritual associated with this celebration that adds to the festivities. Many devotees believe that Gudi is the visual symbol of the flag of Lord Brahma, which is according to the Brahma Purana, and for some, it symbolises the flag of Lord Indra.  

The significance of Gudi Padwa as a festival is the time or season that marks the reaping of Rabi crops that are ready to harvest. Some believe that this day marks the victory of Lord Rama against Ravana, which signifies the victory of good over evil. There are not one, but many reasons why this festival is celebrated, but if there’s one thing we are sure of, it is that Gudi Padwa is a festival that marks a new beginning, and that it brings good luck and prosperity to your life.

Lab diamonds are the Earth-kind alternative to an otherwise range of ambiguously mined natural diamonds. They look exactly like mined diamonds in terms of composition and sparkle. This is because they are grown using two procedures, the HPHT and CVD methods, replicating the same natural circumstances from which natural diamonds are mined. At Friendly Diamonds, you can even personalise your Gudi Padwa gift to your loved one by getting a jewellery customised. From choosing the diamond shape, setting and carat to seeing your reference design come to life, there are no rules when it comes to showcasing your creativity. This Gudi Padwa, go for a lab diamond jewellery!
