Holi festival




Holi


Holi is a hindi festival of colours or the festival of love. It is celebrated in Spring on the day of the full  moon( Februrary- march). Holi celebrates the " death" of winter and the " re-birth" of spring.  The  genesis of the Holi festival is inferred from the different Indian myths. During this festival the people  kindle bonfires, where the symbols of Evil are burned. The objective is to eliminate the differences  between rich and poor and to reach the Divine. Holi is celebrated by people throwing colours powders  and water at each other. It is a good time to meet with other people and improve relations with old  friends. The people eat, dance and play music. Holi is a very beautiful festival. To my mind, it is the best time in India
