Many stories are associated with Holi. Holi is lit one night before celebrating Holi. There is a famous story behind celebrating it.

Devotee Prahlada’s father Hariyanyakaship considered himself a god. He was opposed to Vishnu while Prahlada was a devotee of Vishnu. He stopped Prahlada from doing Vishnu devotion and when he did not agree, he tried to kill Prahlada. Prahlad’s father finally sought help from his sister Holika. Holika had the blessing of not burning in the fire. Holika agreed to assist her brother. Holika sat in the pyre with Prahlad but Prahlada was protected by the grace of Vishnu and Holika was consumed by burning.

This story indicates that good must triumph over evil. Even today, on the full moon day, Holi is lit, and on the next day everyone puts gulal, abir and different colors on each other. This festival is a festival of colors.

On this day, people wake up in the morning and go to the homes of their relatives and friends with colors and play Holi with them fiercely. This festival holds special significance for children.
