Holi Festival - Try Unique Ways to celebrate the festival of Colors

Colorful days, solemn rituals, cheerful celebrations - Holi Festival is a boisterous and lively occasion! Draped in white dresses, people throng the streets in large numbers and smear each other with colorful bright hued powders, paint & squirt colored water on one another through pichkaris (water guns) irrespective of caste, sex, color, race or social status; all these minor differences are temporarily relegated to the background and persons give into an unalloyed colorful rebellion. Holi or 'Phagwah' is the most colorful festival celebrated by followers of the Vedic Religion. It is also celebrated as a harvest festival and a welcome festival for the spring season in India.

Meaning of 'Holi'

'Holi' originates from the word 'hola', meaning to offer prayer or oblation to the almighty as Thanksgiving for good harvest. Holi Festival is celebrated annually and it signifies the triumph of good over evil, the end of winter, the arrival of spring, and for many a festive day to meet others, forget and forgive, play and laugh, and repair broken relationships.

It lasts for two days starting on the Purnima (Full Moon day) falling in the Hindu calendar (Bikram Sambat) month of Falgun, which falls somewhere between the February and March in the Gregorian calendar. The first day is known as Holika Dahan or Chhoti Holi and the second as Dhulandi, Rangwali Holi, Dhuleti or Dhulivandan.
