होली से जुड़ी पौराणिक कथा (Holi signficance & Katha)
In Hindu mythology there are various legends associated with celebrating the festival of Holi. Some of such examples are the stories of Hiranyakashipu and his son Prahlad who is a Vishnu devotee. Holika – Hiranyakashipu’s sister made Prahlad sit on her lap and tried to burn him upon her brother’s order in a bonfire. This led to Holika’s death and Prahlad’s life is saved. So, on this day Holika Dahan is celebrated one day prior to Holi. Hindus fire a bonfire signifies the fire in which Holika got herself burnt. They worship the bonfire that is the symbol to kill evil within the humans, and pray for their prosperity and goodwill.
Holi is also celebrated as Rangwali Holi in memory of Lord Krishna and Radha. Once Krushna enquired his mother Yashoda about him being darker than Radha. So, Yashoda teases Krishna to apply colours on Radha’s face and make her face dark too. After that, Krishna played with Radha and Gopis with bright and vibrant colours. Since then, the tradition of playing Holi in Braj and other parts of India occurs.
May God grant you peace of mind and happiness. Happy Holi!
