Holi Puja Vidhi: Steps.
Holika Dahan planning started before Holi festival began. People start collecting logs, materials from
house, branches of trees, leaves, garbage etc for bonfire in public areas, parks, community centers, and
near temples. After sunset, it is a massive mound of red rice.
It is held in a holy spot, which is washed with Ganges water and cow dung. A wooden pole is covered
with garlands, charms, and several cow dung toys such as Bharbholiye, Gulari or Badkula. An idol
created out of cow dung and coconut is another name for Holika. At Holika Dahan, Holika is burned
while Prahlad is tossed into bath. Throw four bits of cow dung in the oven. Worship the family-god
Hanuman when worshiping family ancestors. If you are looking for Puja Vidhi, let’s look at these stuff.
