Dhuleti, also known as Rangwali Holi, is the second day of the Holi festival and is celebrated with vibrant colors, music, dance, and festivities. It marks the arrival of spring and the victory of good over evil. The day is filled with joy as people smear gulal (colored powder) on each other and celebrate with enthusiasm.
History & Significance of Dhuleti
The origins of Dhuleti are deeply rooted in Hindu mythology and culture:
1. The Legend of Radha & Krishna
- Dhuleti is inspired by the divine love of Lord Krishna and Radha.
- It is believed that Krishna, who had a dark complexion, playfully applied colors to Radha and the gopis, leading to the tradition of Holi celebrations with colors.
- This symbolizes love, unity, and the breaking of societal barriers.
2. The Victory of Good Over Evil
- Dhuleti is linked to the story of Holika Dahan, where Prahlad, a devotee of Vishnu, was saved from his evil father, King Hiranyakashipu.
- The burning of Holika the night before Dhuleti signifies the destruction of evil forces, and the next day is celebrated with colors as a mark of victory and joy.
