The Legend Behind the Celebration
Holi has many mythological stories associated with it. In the end, all lessons lead to the triumph of good over evil.
Among the most famous legends associated with the festival of colors is the one involving the demon Holika and her brother, King Hiranyakashipu. As a powerful King of great stature, Hiranyakashipu was full of pride. His intention was to be worshipped and followed by everyone. His son was unlike him.
Prahlad was the son of King Hiranyakashipu. As opposed to worshiping his father, he worshiped Lord Vishnu. For this reason, he turned to his sister for help.
Holika forced Prahlad to sit on her lap in the blazing fire while she proved that she was immune to burning, and Prahlad would get burned. However, what happened was quite different. Lord Vishnu, the protector, saved his devotee from burning, and Holika the demon was punished for her actions.
Another story is about Lord Krishna and Goddess Radha. According to mythology, Krishna loved Radha deeply. But, because their skin tones were different, he faced comments from people around him. Therefore, Lord Krishna applied colors to his “Radhe” and the Gopis did not look at his complexion.
