Holi tell us about victory of the TRUTH . There is a little story of this festival that i would like to tell you all .
Once there was a rude king named by HIRANYAKASHYAP (Hiranyakashipu) . He was very rude and he thoughts , He is the GOD . He always force everyone to worship himself but his son named prahlad(prahlada) He never accepted this . He never accepted his father as a god . He was a devotee of lord VISHNU . As prahlad was a devotee of lord Vishnu his father was always against him . His father forced him to be my devotee not lord Vishnu but prahlad never listened to him . Prahlad was always busy in lord Vishnu's worship(Bhakti) .
HIRANYAKASHYAP gave prahlad so much torchurs for his faith on lord VISHNU . When everything he tried on pralhad and it did not work on him then he called his sister named HOLIKA . Holika had a boon from God that she can not burn by fire . Holika and his brother made a plan to burn prahlad with the help of holika . When prahlad and holika both sit on fire then prahlad started saying name of lord Vishnu . Plan was about to hurt prahlad but this plan got totally opposite . Prahlad was safe inside the fire but holika burnt and died inside the fire . This was the power of lord Vishnu .
God always give us so many chances but once the limit crossed then we are responsible for ourselves . This is happened to king Hiranyakashyap . When king's torcher limit crossed then lord Vishnu came came out from a pole to kill the king . King also had some boons but it did not work . That was a NARSINGH AVTAR of lord vishnu . It was half man and half animal(lion) . Lord vishnu killed the king Hiranyakashyap and the story of crudity finished . This story tell us the victory of truth . It doesn't matter how hard/difficult/strong is dishonesty or falsity but the truth will always win .
HAPPY HOLI . SAFE HOLI .
