Once, Asuraraj Hiranyakashipu was absorbed in penance to achieve victory. Seeing the opportunity, the gods captured his kingdom. Brahmarshi Narada brought his pregnant wife to his ashram. They told him about Dharma and Vishnu glory every day. The son Prahlada, who was born in the womb, also received this knowledge. Later, Asuraj conquered all the three worlds with the blessing of Brahma, the queen came to him. Prahlada was born there.


Upon reaching childhood, Prahlada started Vishnu-bhakti. Enraged by this, Hiranyakashipu called his guru and said that he should do something so that it stops repeating the name of Vishnu. The Guru tried hard but was unsuccessful. Asuraraj then ordered the murder of his son.

He was poisoned, he was hit with a sword, released in front of the poisoners, wanted to be crushed under the feet of elephants, plucked down from the mountain, but Prahlad's hair was not deterred by the grace. Then Hiranyakashipu called his sister Holika and said that you take Prahlada and sit in the fire, so that he can be burned.


Holika had the boon that fire would never harm her unless she thought of hurting a good-natured human being. Having obeyed his brother, Holika took nephew Prahlada to the dock and sat in the fire.


In an attempt to harm him, Holika herself was burnt to death and Prahlada came out of the fire laughing. Therefore, while celebrating Holi festival, do Holi Dahan keeping in mind the real sentiment.


For this, if you wish, then you can write the bad experiences and failures of previous years on a paper and dedicate it to Agni. Put the negative emotions going on in your mind in Holi Dahan. Only then you too will move forward from positive thinking and become a god of grace like Prahlada.
