Deepotsava or Deepotsavam, also known as the festival of lights, is celebrated every year in the month of Kartika (October–November). It is a month-long festival commemorating Damodara-lila, the sweet pastime of baby Krishna stealing butter and consequently being tied to a mortar by His dear mother, Yashoda. In Sanskrit, “dama” means rope and “udara” means belly. Damodara refers to Krishna, who was bound with a rope by His mother, Yashoda.
