As soon as the month of Phagun (Phalgun) takes place, items and fun have been around. There is a mild heat in the weather and in the meantime there is a presence of a little cold wind. This coincidence of hot and cold in the atmosphere is also giving the mind in such a dilemma. If there is love somewhere, then it grows up and if it is suffering, then it increases even more. Where in this season, the search for love is also the desire of nature itself, so whose love is already kept with God, then why should he not be dyed in this color.
Holi tradition originates from Vaishnav temples
This love can be lively seen in all the temples called the focal point of the Pushtimargi saints of the Vaishnava sect. These temples are painted in the color of Abir-Gulal a month before the scheduled date of Holika Dahan and Dhulandi. The style of Rajasthani folk songs, Rasiya, which is especially sung on Holi opportunities and Radha-Krishna’s love is included in the glory of Rajasthani folk songs, Radha-Krishna’s love.

Do not consider these temples associated with Krishna Bhakti Branch and their tradition as limited to Mathura-Vrindavan. The scope of Braj region is very large, including Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan.
Rasiya songs sung in Pushtimargi temples
Temples with the Pushtimargi branch of the Vaishnava sect are established in many districts of Rajasthan. In these temples, Shri Krishna’s Balup is established and he is also worshiped here like a king. These temples are built everywhere in medieval infanty style and that is why vocabulaies like Jharokha Darshan, Gaddi Darshan, Peetham Darshan are very famous for the darshan of God, but the thing that attracts the most in these temples is the Rasiya event to be held here.

He is increasing the enthusiasm and enthusiasm of the people by mixing the tone with the rhythm and the sound of Jai of Sanwaliya Sarkar (Shri Krishna) is also becoming a part of songs.
Rasiya originated from Ras
The word Rasiya is emerged from Ras and due to its origin, it gets connected to the life character of Shri Krishna. That is why Sri Krishna is the hero in Rasiya songs and Radha Rani is its heroine. Radha’s other stories, in these songs, come in the description of different episodes like fellow artists and Rasiya is settled. On the occasion of Holi, these songs especially include the colorful mention of Holi and the decorative description of the contexts of playing Holi between Radha-Krishna is very captivated.
Rasiya organized at Dwarikesh Temple of Kankroli (Rajsamand)
There is a temple in Kankroli (Rajsamand) in Rajasthan, Dwarkesh Nath Temple. This temple worships Shri Krishna’s Girdhari form like a king and Rasiya is being organized on a large scale these days in the temple premises.

What is the tradition of resin darshan?
During this time, cloth is tied on big bamboo. Those clothes are soaked in oil. Then the fire is ignited in the midst of an open field, then the Ral and Singhada flour is added to that fire on behalf of the Goswami family of the temple itself. In this, fire is lit and tremendous flames arise from it. A large number of people from Rajasthan and other areas are reaching for its darshan. It is believed that changes caused by the change of seasons and diseases that are flourishing are prevented through it.
God’s gulal decoration starts from Vasant Panchami
From the day of Vasant Panchami, God starts climbing Abir-Gulal and during the resin darshan, Lord Kirtan is sung in a very tone, which describes Holi. See this post of devotee Sant Nanddas (15th-16th century), one of the Ashtachhap poets of the Pushtimargiya Vallabh sect, which is sung in the raga Hamir.
Dole is scorched Giridharan Jhulawat Bala
Nirkh Nirkha Phool Lalitadik Sriradhawar Nandalala॥
Chowa Chandan Chirkat Bhamini Udat Abir Gulala॥
Kamal Nayan Ko Pan Khwat Paharawat Urmala
Vajat Tal Mridang Adhoti Kujat Venu Rasala॥
Nanddas young woman Mila Gawat Rizwat Srigopala॥ ,

Chowa ko dhova bhari rakhyo saffron-kitchen thick.
Abir Gulal Udavat Gawat, all the caste Sunny
Handhan Lasat Kanak Pichkari, Gavalan Release Tirtue.
Nanddas Prabhu Hori Khet, Muri-Murri Jat Ani॥

In the sanctum sanctorum of the temple, he narrates the post to Girdhari ji
Singers who sing these fancifles are the virtuous knowledge of Raga-Ragini and the classical side of singing and sit in the sanctum sanctorum of the temple and recite kirtan to God for hours. The temple complex keeps echoing with their fanfare. This pure classical singing is done within the temple, but apart from this, the folk songs are being sung by the people.
There is also a tradition of singing folk songs
These songs are easily settled on the tongue of the devotees and are sung in the double style. That is, one of the main songs singing a line starts singing and others repeat it from behind. These songs are called Rasiya. These songs also include laughter-related laughter.
Do not hit the injury of the scene in Rasiya Hori, I will be engaged.
I am a woman’s big clan, you have a big fault. ॥1॥ in Rasiya Hori
This time I have been saved, in the veil of the veil ॥2॥
Rasik Govind play there, where Tihari Jot Rasiya Hori ॥3॥
Chandrasakhi Bhaj Bal Krishna Chhabi Hari Charanan Ki Oat Rasiya Hori ॥4॥
Rasiya songs are the voice of society with the feeling of dressing
In these Rasiya songs, where the emotion of Shringar is seen on one side, the dignity and shame of family also becomes its subject. In Rasiya songs, many times the confusion of relationships like mother-in-law, Devrani-Jethani emerge as subjects. See a hallmark of this here.
Oh Kanha, don’t wet me with the colour syringe, my mother-in-law will scold me.
The mother in law will fight, sister in law will fight in my house.
Mother -in -law Dukaria is my big khoti, Gari de will give Mohe Roti,
Darani Jethani Mary Janam Ki Baran, Subha Karegi Re.
Kanha Pichkari Do not kill… ॥1॥
Ja ja lie drank, he said,
Sixteen, sixteen of one four, very bad badmas,
Piya’s ears will be filled. Don’t kill Kanha Pichkari… ॥2॥
Kachu Na Bigre Shyam Tiharo, Moko Hoygo Des Nicaro,
I will laugh at me by giving Braj’s woman. Kanha Pichkari Do not kill… ॥3॥
Similarly, a Rasiya song is very famous, in which a gopi Bala’s arm is lost while playing Holi. Now she is afraid of going home Gopi Bala. Fear because gold is lost, then there is a huge loss, then there may be various kinds of accusations on it. That is why she is saying to Gopi Krishna i.e. Rasiya, only because of you, if you are lost, then you will make it.
Mero Kho Gayo Bazubandh Rasiya Hori,
Oh Hori in Hori, Rasiya Hori,
Oh Hori in Hori, Rasiya Hori,
Mero Kho Gayo Bazubandh Rasiya Hori in Hori …….
The arms to my big mole,
The arms to my big mole,
Get the whole weighing made,
Listen to Nand’s Paranand Rasiya Hori,
Mero Kho Gayo Bazubandh Rasiya Hori,
Mother -in -law will fight my nananda,
Khasam will be hit on the head,
All juice is broken in Rasiya Hori,
Mero Kho Gayo Bazubandh Rasiya Hori,
Udham Tan Lala Bahot Machayo
Laz Sharam Jaane said, come, come,
I have come to the tight, Rasiya Hori,
Mero lost Gayo Bazubandh Rasiya Hori in Hori ……
These songs are the voice of sociality
The author of these songs is poet Ghasiram. The name of Ghasiram is taken in the famous Krishna devotee poets of ‘Reeti Kaal’. He has composed many devotional positions related to Lord Krishna.
