‘Holi’ <\/strong>– the festival of colors <\/strong><\/em>is one of the major Festivals celebrated in India. Well known for its beautiful traditions, Holi is one of the most vivid celebrations of India, which is celebrated with full energy, zeal, excitement, and enthusiasm everywhere throughout the nation.<\/p>\n

The spiritual festival got its name from the childhood antics of Lord Krishna, a rebirth of Lord Vishnu, who used to pull tricks on the young ladies by drenching them in colorful hues and water.<\/p>\n

Legend behind Holi<\/strong><\/h2>\n

It has an ancient origin that celebrates the triumph of good over evil. There are several mythological stories behind its origin. Rituals of the Holi festival have its roots in the legend of the demon king Hiranyakashyap<\/strong>, which emphasizes the victory of good over evil. He wanted to end his son’s life with the help of his sister, Holika, who was blessed with the natural power for not burning in fire.<\/p>\n

According to mythology, it marks the death of demon Holika by Prahlad as she sat on fire with Prahlad in her lap. Her objective was to burn him because he was a staunch believer of Lord Vishnu. But destiny fades & she herself was burnt in the fire while, on the other hand, Prahlad got no injury because Lord Vishnu was his protector.<\/p>\n
