    Re: Holi

    Happy Holi to every one in HDF.

    ...
    That which is without letters (parts) is the Fourth, beyond apprehension through ordinary means, the cessation of the phenomenal world, the auspicious and the non-dual. Thus Om is certainly the Self. He who knows thus enters the Self by the Self.

    Re: Holi

    Pranam all
    Happy Holi, tomorrow 16th march

    May it bring colour in all our lives.


    Hope it enhances faith for everyone attached to this wonderful festival, it gives us the past times of one of the great bhakta Prahlad Maharaj who under all trials and tribulations remained steadfast in his faith to Hari, Instead of Prahlad being consumed by fire on this day Holika who was immune from fire got destroyed.

    Jai Prahlad Maharaj
    Jai Shree Chaitanya Mahaprabhu who also appeared on this day.
    Jai Shree Krishna
    Rig Veda list only 33 devas, they are all propitiated, worthy off our worship, all other names of gods are derivative from this 33 originals,
    Bhagvat Gita; Shree Krishna says Chapter 3.11 devan bhavayatanena te deva bhavayantu vah parasparam bhavayantah sreyah param avapsyatha Chapter 17.4 yajante sattvika devan yaksa-raksamsi rajasah pretan bhuta-ganams canye yajante tamasa janah
    The world disappears in him. He is the peaceful, the good, the one without a second.

    It's becoming a more common celebration in the west as well.

    Re: Holi

    Namaste,

    Happy Holi to one and all.

    In Bharat tomorrow, Sunday is 'Holika Dahan' and Holi will be celebrated on Monday the 17th. All the offices and schools will be closed on Monday.

    In the US, the biggest and the most boistrous Holi celebration is at the Utah ISKCON mandir. Many young people with no affiliation with ISKCON, show up just for the fun of it.

    Pranam.

    Re: Holi

    Hari Om

    Namaste,

    Happy Holi to all!

    Yes, BelieverJi, in my limited world view in WV, will travel to only mandir within a few hours, an ISKCON mandir to celebrate with many wonderful people, who, although predominately ISKCON, will be filled with plenty of other paths as well. For many Indian born residents of U.S., this is only temple close enough for many in WV, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Truly will be a grand time.
