Holika Dahan is celebrated as the triumph of good over evil. It is an ancient celebration where people offer prayers and chant mantras for protection and blessings.

Jump To Section
The celebration is deeply rooted in Hindu mythology, particularly in the story of Prahlad, who was protected by Lord Vishnu while the demoness Holika perished in the flames.

On this auspicious day, communities gather to light bonfires, symbolically burning away evil forces. It is believed that good always triumphs over evil.

As we watch the flames rise, we should let go of past mistakes, cleanse our hearts, and move forward with positivity.

May God bless you all and fill your life with joy and happiness! HARI OM
