The colorful and joyous Holi festival has officially commenced in the Mithila region. This vibrant celebration of spring and new beginnings was initiated with a symbolic ceremony at Kanchanavan of Bhangaha Municipality-9.
Sadhus, saints, and mahatmas, as part of the 15-day Madhyamik Parikrama, painted the idols of Lord Ram and Mother Sita red. This traditional act marks the official start of Holi festivities in the region.
Over the coming days, villages throughout Mithila will come alive with the sounds of traditional Holi songs, the recitation of satirical poems, and the staging of lively plays. These cultural expressions are an integral part of the Holi celebrations, adding to the festive atmosphere.
Holi is a significant festival in the Hindu calendar, signifying the triumph of good over evil and the arrival of spring. The use of bright colors is a hallmark of the festival, symbolizing vibrancy, energy, and joy.
