The special Puja for Holi happens a day prior to the actual celebration of colours, which came to be known as Holika Dahan. There’s a legend that is related to the festival of Holi, and thus Holika Dhan which has its ties to the actual essence of burning down all that’s unholy and sinful and everything else that keeps one away from living a content life.
The significance of Holi lies close to the legend of Holi Puja which circles around Lord Vishnu and King Hiranyakashyap. The story revolves around the concept of the victory of good over bad. The triumph of Lord Vishnu’s disciple, Prahlad’s devotion over King Hiranyakashyap’s sister Holika’s evil intentions, came to be known as Holika Dahan- the triumph of ‘Holy’ over ‘Unholy’.
People all over the world burn a pyre to commemorate the ritual of Holika Dahan a night prior to celebrating the festival of colours, Holi 2023. Those who perform the special Holi Puja Vidhi of Holika Dahan achieve the tedious task of casting off all evil from their life with Lord Vishnu’s blessings.
The period of 8 days before Holi is considered inauspicious due to the negative energy it contains. This is called the period of Holashtak, during which nothing good reaps and every task that gets done is not considered special, rather inauspicious. During the ominous time period of Holashtak, negativity and evil eye latch onto an individual way too quickly, so the auspicious puja of Holika Dahan marks the end of all the tumultuous times that can be burnt to ashes, to be reborn as a new person who reverberates success and happiness.
