When we were small we witnessed the Hindu rituals and now we are privileged to pass them on to our children. Living in a condominium is a boost, like other festivals,HolikaDahan too is a very auspicious one,where good wins over evil.Logs of wood are Interlocked vertically bound with molly (sacred thread). In the presence of Panditji as he recites the mantras slowly the Holika burns and Prahlad is saved from the holy fire.People take parikrama and offer water,coconut, and Prasad to the fire.On the way back home they take the ashes to feel blessed all the year through relishing gujiya and mithai.
