Holi is a two-day celebration. On the first day, large pyres are lit in many parts of India. The bonfire is linked to an old legend in Hindu mythology and the demon Holika. People throw wood, dried leaves, and old clothes in the bonfire. They offer their prayers and sing and dance around the pyre. Culturally the fire symbolizes the triumph of good over evil.
The next day the celebration is all about colors and fun that comes along with it. On this day, people apply color on each other and hug and wish Happy Holi. The day asserts that you let go of your animosities and begin new friendships. Thus, the embrace after applying color is known as “Holi Milan.”

How to play a safe Holi?
There is an ugly side to the Holi festival. The markets in India are flooded with toxic colors. The colors are made from harsh chemicals that can harm your skin eyes. To protect yourself, you must choose safer and organic color options. However, the other party might not. So, it is advisable to cover all your ground in order to stay protected in this color frenzy. Here are a few tips, to keep yourself safe and play a safe Holi:
- Wear fully covered clothes: Cotton and something comfy is advisable.
- Wear cool eye shades: It will not only protect your eyes from harsh chemicals and sun but give you a cool look.
- Apply oil: For ages, Indians have been advised by their grannies to apply oil to protect themselves from Holi colors. It holds true to date. Oil creates a protective layer on your body and lets you enjoy the day without worry.
- Wear the right shoes: A Holi party means there will be lots of color mixed water on the ground. Wear the shoes that help you stand upright on a slippery surface and may even dance.
- Cover your hairs: If you have sensitive hairs, it’s best to cover them it a bandana. The bandanas not only give you stylish looks but protect your precious locks.
Why is Holi celebrated?
Holi marks the onset of spring and harvest season in India. Like all other Hindu festivals, there is also a legend attached to the festival. According to Hindu Mythology, the Holi is associated with Prahalad and his aunt Holika (demon). Prahalad was the son of demon king Hrinayakashipu, who hated the God Vishnu. On the other hand, Prahalad was a staunch Vishnu devotee. His father hated the fact and thought about the devilish idea to kill his own son. When most of the attempts failed, his sister Holika offered to help him. Holika had the power not to get harmed by fire. She took little Prahalad in her arms and sat on a big pyre. However, the Holika burned to death in that fire, and Prahalad emerged unharmed. That is why people light a big bonfire and pray around it. The flag in the middle symbolizes Prahalad.
The playing of color is believed to be originated from the story of Krishna and Radha. Initially, it is believed the Holi is celebrated with only red color, and other colors later became part of the festival. Apart from mythology, the Holi is also an important part of India’s seasonal changes and crop cycle.
