Happy Holi 2012 ! Holi Hai !

noreply@blogger.com (Yogesh Goel) — Fri, 02 Mar 2012 06:16:00 +0000

Holi (होली), is a religious spring festival celebrated by Hindus. Holi is also known as festival of Colours. It is primarily observed in India, Nepal, Pakistan,[1] and countries with large Indic diaspora populations following Hinduism, such as Suriname, Malaysia, Guyana, South Africa, Trinidad, United Kingdom, United States, Mauritius, and Fiji. In some states of India such as West Bengal and Orissa, it is known as Dolyatra (Doul Jatra) (Bengali: দোলযাত্রা), or Basanta-Utsav (“spring festival”)(Bengali: বসন্তোৎসব). The most celebrated Holi is in the Braj region, in locations connected to the Lord Krishna: Mathura, Vrindavan, Nandagaon, and Barsana. These places have become tourist destinations during the festive season of Holi.

The main day, Holi, also known as Dhuli in Sanskrit, also Dhulheti, Dhulandi or Dhulendi, is celebrated by people throwing coloured powder and coloured water at each other. Bonfires are lit on the eve of the festival, also known as Holika Dahan (burning of Holika) or Chhoti Holi (little Holi). After doing holika dalhan prayers are said and praise is offered. The bonfires are lit in memory of the miraculous escape that young Prahlad accomplished when Demoness Holika, sister of Hiranyakashipu, carried him into the fire. Holika was burnt but Prahlad, a staunch devotee of god Vishnu, escaped without any injuries due to his unshakable devotion. Holika Dahan is referred to as Kama Dahanam in South India.

Ways to celebrate Environment & Eco Friendly Holi 2012

Idyllically, the festival of Holi is meant for a joyous celebration with carefree attitude. It is done in order to greet the colors of spring. Its a festival to feel the colours of nature and become as evergreen as the Spring which brings with itself lots of hopes and freshness. Though, unfortunately the meaning of Holi has not remained the similar in last few decades owing to the ruthless commercialization and source of hazardous Holi products. So, unhappily the modern Holi does not stand for everything beautiful. In fact it has become yet another source of environmental degradation. To de-pollute Holi and evoke in again into an environment friendly fiesta, a lot is required to be done.

Here are little steps which can be taken up from your side to change the Holi in your locality into an ECO FRIENDLY HOLI.

Environment & Eco Friendly Holi

Holi being a social celebration is not limited to one home, so in order to convert it into an environment friendly festival, contribution is required from every family of the society. Only when every individual who participates in the festival, do maximum efforts from his/her side not to hamper the environment in any way can we achieve what we want. For this, mass level awareness of people regarding an environment friendly celebration is required. People need to understand that if some little changes in the celebration pattern can bring worth results for the environment, how they can then shift towards the change in the social sector.

Judicious Use of Water

In a situation when most of the Indian cities are facing acute water scarcity, it is obviously a matter of concern that the precious commodity like water is being wasted in such manner during the Holi celebrations. On the day of Holi, people out of enthusiasm and fun saturate each other with buckets of water and children throw water balloons at each other, thus the water that could have used for next few weeks is finished in a day creating more difference in the demand and supply of water. Though, if we request people to celebrate a dry Holi only with ‘Gulal’, it would seem an unfamiliar concept to most of the people. Though this celebration would have been ideal but as most of the people would not agree to it, the judicious use of water on the day is one thing that must be kept in concern if you wish to celebrate an eco friendly Holi. Either play DRY HOLI with GULAL or use and reuse water with large groups together.

Avoid Using Chemical Colors

In ancient time, the Holi colors were prepared from the flowers of trees like Indian Coral Tree (parijat) and the flame of the Forest (kesu). However, with the influx of dry chemical colors, people stopped taking pence for extracting the flowers colors and with time the use of chemical and aluminum paints increased during the celebrations. These chemical dyes not only prove extremely dangerous to individual’s skin but are also hazardous for environment as lots of pollution is caused during its preparation as well as after their mergence with water cycle.

Eco Friendly Bonfire

The burning of fuel wood in order to perform the Holi Bonfire or the Holika Dahan presents is another factor related to Holi that raises a factor of concern. Umpteen useful fuel woods is wasted during this ritual, this not only leads to the cutting of trees but also unnecessary pollution in return. Instead of wooden logs, it would be ideal if people use this Holika Dahan for burning their waste material.

But when there is fun and festivity, it is so easy to get carried away. However, why risk your life and nature for short-lived exhilaration?

Keep in mind and take utmost care. If you have more ideas then do comment below. It will help others to enjoy safely.

Yogesh Goel wish you all a joyous and vibrant ecofriendly Holi.

Holi hai!!

A Dress Made Of 9999 Roses

noreply@blogger.com (Yogesh Goel) — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 09:59:00 +0000

A dozen long-stem roses wasn’t enough for one man on Valentine’s Day. Xiao Fan opted for a wallet-stretching 9,999, which he fashioned into a lavish gown before proposing to his girlfriend, Yin Mi, at the Guangzhou amusement park where they met three years ago. (Yin had just been crowned Miss Bikini 2009 when they first locked gazes.) Dressmakers toiled unceasingly to create the remarkable garment, which includes delicate rose-petal shoulder straps and a sweeping five-foot train made from individually stitched blooms.

The number nine is significant to the Chinese because it’s a homophone of “long-lasting,” which has auspicious connotations for weddings. According to legend, the number 10,000 was reserved only for deities. The emperor who commissioned the imperial palace in Beijing’s Forbidden City was said to have requested 9,999 rooms, believing that the number brought him closest to heaven without aspiring to rise above it.

Yin paired the dress with a white shrug and a bouquet of yellow orchids, which symbolize love, beauty, and fertility. And, judging from that massive rock on her ring finger, she said yes.
