Sadhguru: The culture of celebrating Deepavali goes back 12,000 - 15,000 years. People realised how, during this time of the year, life hits a point of inertia and does not happen at the normal pace. For the northern hemisphere of the planet, due to the position of the sun, it is winter. But above all, the forces of gravity work in such a way that there is a kind of stagnation and nothing grows well at this time.
