One of the most fun Hindu festivals, Holi is just around the corner and many people are enthusiastically waiting for it! Also called the Festival of Colors, Holi is one of the most colourful and joyous festivals which is celebrated in India and around the world with great joy. It marks the beginning of spring and it also reminds people about the victory of good over evil.
The story behind Holi
As per Hindu mythology, the story of Prahlad and Holika is one of the main reasons to celebrate Holi. The legend is: King Hiranyakashipu, who considered himself invincible, wanted everyone to worship him instead of the Gods. But his own son Prahlad was a devoted follower of Lord Vishnu and continued to be so, going against his father's wishes. This enraged King Hiranyakashipu so much that he conspired with his sister, named Holika, to kill his son Prahlad. Since Holika had the boon of being resistant to fire, she and Hiranyakashipu decided to make Prahlad sit in a fire along with her. But, Lord Vishnu's divine intervention saved Prahlad in the nick of time, burning Holika instead! This teaches one the victory of good over evil no matter the circumstances, and it is commemorated with Holika Dahan every year. It's a ritual of bonfire on the night before Holi.
On this day, people get together and apply colours or Gulaal on each other. Holi is a time to celebrated with colours, music, dance, and delicious food like gujiya, chakri, malpua, and thandai. This year, Holika Dahan will be celebrated on March 13, followed by Holi on March 14, as per the Hindu calendar.
