Caption Notes / Extended Caption

Diwali is the most important festival of India. It is the celebration of good over evil in the story of Ramayan. After a happy ending to the story, Sita wishes to return to Earth from where she had emerged. She prays, "Oh Mother Earth! If I am pure, embrace me into your arms." I have used a combination of green, blue, and orange to represent the elements of Earth that come together to accept Sita who was pure as gold.
