Why do people buy turtles for Diwali?
It is considered auspicious to bring a tortoise home on the occasion of Diwali. The tortoise is a symbol of the Kurma avatar of Lord Vishnu. That is why tortoises are released in many temple courtyards. It is believed that bringing it home on the day of Diwali will bring the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi. Shastras say that it is a symbol of longevity and increases positive energy in the house. As a result, it is believed that the family will be blessed with happiness.
