Holi 2025: On March 14, there is a festival of Holi and on this day, colors will fly throughout the country. However, the style of Holi of Mathura, Vrindavan and Barsana is unique. Apart from color, Abir-Gulal, Holi is also played with flowers, laddus, sticks and sticks. There will hardly be any place in the world where people consider themselves lucky by eating sticks and sticks. Let us tell you about such fun Holi.
Sticking
Playing Chhadamar Holi begins to offer Rajbhog in front of Thakurji in Nandabhavan of Nandkile. Lord Shri Krishna was born in Mathura, but his childhood was spent in Gokul. Even today, Gokul residents worship Lord Krishna in this form. This is the reason that the Holi here is different from the whole Brij. That is why it is not called Lattamar, but Holi Holi.
There is also an interesting story behind Chhadar Holi. It is said that Kanha used to harass the gopis with his stunned, so the gopis ran with a stick behind them to teach Kanha a lesson. This was done to intimidate Kanha. Due to this tradition, Chhadamar Holi is played in Gokul today, in which the use of stick instead of Lath is considered to be a symbol of love and feeling towards its adorable Krishna.
Lathmar Holi
If it comes to Holi, how can Nandgaon stay behind Barsana? On the occasion of Holi, women here kill and all Kanhaiya of the village protect themselves and live in color to apply them. At this time, there is a lot of color in the fans here.
It is said that according to mythology, once Krishna reached Barsana village to meet Radha in Nand village, he started teasing Radha and her friends, due to which Radha and Radha and her friends started to remove Krishna and her gwals with sticks. Since then, the trend of Lathmar Holi started in both these villages.
Laddu Holi
Similarly, people of Barsane and Nand village play Laddu Holi. According to a legend, in the Dwapar Yuga, Sakhis were sent to Nand village after taking an invitation to play Holi from Barsana. Kanha’s father Nand Baba accepted the invitation of Radharani’s father Vrishabhanuji. Nand Baba also sent a letter of acceptance to a priest. In Barsane, Vrishabhanuji honored the priest from Nandgaon and gave them to the laddus kept in the plate.
At the same time, the gopis of Barsane also put Parohit Gulal. Then what was the priest had Gulal, otherwise he started killing the laddus kept in the plate. Since then, the tradition of playing this laddu Holi started.
