Prahlad received such torture within 8 days of Holashtak

New Delhi, 29 February 2020, Saturday

This year, the launch will begin on March 3, 2020, which lasts for 8 days. Holashtaka means the day before Holi 8 days. From the eighth to the Holi of the Shukla Party of the month of Pagan, Holi is called Hollash. This time, Holidays will be celebrated from March 3-9. The dust will be played on March 10 after Holi is lit on March 09.

In the days of Holocaust, marriage, nomenclature, initiation of education, house entrance, building of houses, Havan, Yajna etc. are not auspicious. The planet is fierce these days and it is believed that all the work done at this time is more likely to be damaged. It is also believed that Lord Shiva burned Cupid at the beginning of the Holocaust. It is also believed that the devotee Prahlad was tortured during the Holocaust period on the occasion of Hiranyakaship. But by the grace of Lord Vishnu, Prahlad crossed all the difficulties.

On the final day of Holi, Hiranyakaship's sister Holika along with Prahlad sat in the fire. Holika had a special dress which Brahmaji gave her as a blessing. But as Holika sat in the fire, a strong wind blew and the garment fell on Prahlad. Due to this Holika was burnt and Prahlad survived. Since then, Holi is celebrated on the day of Pagan month of Purnima as the victory of religion over Adharma and the next day is celebrated with colors.
