Colours of Spring
It's that point of the season again! Holi is back and as fun-filled, colourful and lively as always! This is an occasion that brings everyone together and fills the streets with pure, unadulterated joy, music, and dance,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not to mention, lots and lots of colour. This year,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Holi is being celebrated on March 8, 2012.
A festival that waves goodbye to the shivery chill of winter, Holi is one of the most popular festivals in India. Essentially a Hindu festival,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it's celebrated just by about everyone,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], across caste and religion and age. An excuse to don your oldest clothes and come out into the streets, your water guns with you and powdered colours hiding in your fists, Holi lets even grown-ups have fun.
A two-day festival, Holi is well known every year at the time after the full moon in early March as per the Hindu calendar. It marks the time for the spring harvest and welcomes the blessings of the Gods for the fertility from the land. This explains another names of the festival Mahotsav and Mahotsav
Holi can also be known as the festival of colours. In olden days, the colours of holi, the dry powdered ones known as gulal along with the wet ones called rang were prepared at home,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in the extracts of colourful forest flowers leaving. The teshu or palash tree bore bright red and deep orange flowers, that have been ground into fine powder and put into water, developing a rich saffron-red dye called abeer. Today, unfortunately,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], lots of colours available in the market contain chemicals that, unlike natural colours, can be very bad for one's skin and eyes. The harmful results of these chemicals can be countered by once again embracing natural colours and making the festival an eco-friendly one. Many brands of environmentally and physically safe colours are available these days in the market. Along with this, many campaigns, like the CLEAN India campaign, happen to be teaching children to create natural colours with cheap and simply available resources.
While on other days, one could not get away with squirting colour on passers-by, on Holi, it's practically a rule! Dunking friends in pools of water and smearing powered colour on each others' faces is part from the celebration. Together with colours, this festival also guarantees a veritable feast of traditional sweetmeats like Gujhias in Northern India and Puran Poli in Maharashtra.
It's time to let your hair down, pick up just a little colour and discover your next victim!
Prince Prahlad was a devout follower of Vishnu. His father, the demon king Hiranyakashyap couldn't tolerate this,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for he had won within the kingdom of earth and commanded that in his kingdom,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], only he be worshipped. His son's devotion to Lord Vishnu led Hiranyakashyap to kill his son several times. But every time, Vishnu saved his follower. Finally, Hiranyakashyap asked his sister, Holika, to enter a burning pyre with Prahlad in her own lap. Based on a boon, Holika was supposed to be unscathed by fire. Instead,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Prahlad, who kept chanting Vishnu's name,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], remained unharmed, while Holika perished. Holi derives its name from Holika and is celebrated like a festival of victory of good over evil. Right now, about the first day of the festival, also called Chhoti Holi (Little Holi) or Holika Dahan, people burn bonfires with Holika effigies to mark this occasion.
Make sure that your face is well creamed pre and post the play, your nails engrossed in nail paint to protect them, and your hair well oiled. You can also apply oil on your body. It protects you against harmful colours and the slippery coat also enables you to hard to catch!
