And, It’s Holi

It’s Holi

Today is Holi. It’s the Festival of Colors, Love, and Spring. It celebrates the eternal and divine love of the deities Radha and Krishna, and the celebration of Vishnu’s victory over Hiranyakashipu. Enjoy!

It’s Holika Dahan

It’s Holika Dahan

Today is the 1st part of the Hindu celebration, Holi. Specifically, today is Holika Dahan, “Burning of Holika.” It literally celebrates the burning of the demoness, Holika. So, as this is the celebration of Good defeating Evil, and beauty is good, enjoy these very “good” Desi beauties. 😉

And Happy Holi

As I wouldn’t want to be called “Eurocentric” or anything like that, I’d like to wish you all a slightly belated Happy Holi as well as Ä’ostre. Got to keep up with the multicultural ethic, after all.

And Happy Holi As Well

OK, OK! All sarcasm aside, I just plain forgot that yesterday was technically Holi. My wives and I actually celebrate this Hindu holiday but, like many such things in the States, when the holiday falls on a weekday the big celebrations and ceremonies are normally held on the nearest weekend. Hence, Sunday we’ll be having fun and getting colorful at this year’s Rangwali Holi.

And hey! Holi’s even more colorful than Ä’ostre.
