Watch an amazing video on why do we celebrate holi and the history behind it!<\/p>\n
Holi is a major Hindu festival celebrated in India in the month of spring. The festival is celebrated over two days \u2013 with the evening before Holi day being known as \u2018Choti Holi\u2019. On Choti Holi, people burn large pyres to symbolize the burning of the demoness Holika. On the day of Holi, people celebrate the festival by playing with colours.<\/p>\n
Holi gets its name from Holika, demon king Hiranyakashyap\u2019s sister. Hiranyakashyap had got a boon from Lord Vishnu that he would not be killed by man or animal, at day or night, inside or outside, above or on the ground. So Hiranyakashyap said that only he should be worshipped, not God.<\/p>\n
His own son, Prahlad continued to worship Lord Vishnu. This made his father angry. He asked Prahlad to jump from a mountain, but he remained unhurt. Even when Hiranyakashyap made Prahlad jump in a well, he was unharmed. Hiranyakashyap tried to poison Prahlad. The poison turned to nectar in Prahlad\u2019s mouth. Then, Hiranyakashya ordered that wild elephants should trample Prahlad, but he was not hurt. Next, Prahlad was put in a room with poisonous, angry snakes, but still nothing happened to him. Finally, Hollka made Prahlad sit on a pyre with her.<\/p>\n
She was protected by a shawl that kept her from being burnt. The shawl flew from her to Prahlad. So, Holika burned, Prahlad was safe. Lord Vishnu appeared as half-man, half-lion and killed Hiranyakashyap at dusk, on his porch steps. A Holika bonfire is lit every year to remind us of the victory of good over evil. Holi is celebrated on the day after the bonfire.<\/p>\n
