Holi (\ho-ly\) is a major Hindu festival celebrated as the Festival of Colors, Love, and Spring. It celebrates the eternal and divine love of the deities Radha and her consort Krishna.
Additionally, the day signifies the triumph of good over evil, light over dark, as it commemorates the victory of Vishnu as Narasimha ("Man-Lion") over Hiranyakashipu. Holi originated and is predominantly celebrated on the Indian subcontinent but has spread to other regions of Asia and parts of the Western world through the Indian diaspora. More: Holi
