Dolyatra Celebration
Sure, I would be happy to provide some information about Dolyatra.
Dolyatra, also known as Dol Purnima, is a Hindu festival that is celebrated in various parts of India, especially in West Bengal and Assam. It usually falls in the month of March, on the full moon day of the Bengali calendar month of Phalguna.
The festival is also known as the "Festival of Colors" or "Spring Festival", and is similar to the Holi festival celebrated in other parts of India. During Dolyatra, people play with colored powders and water, and throw them at each other. The festival marks the beginning of spring and celebrates the victory of good over evil.
One of the key rituals of Dolyatra is the worship of Lord Krishna, who is believed to have played Holi with his devotees in the city of Vrindavan. Devotees sing and dance in front of the deity's image, and then take out a procession known as "Dol Jatra", carrying the image on a palanquin decorated with flowers and colored cloth.
Overall, Dolyatra is a joyous and colorful festival that brings people together to celebrate the arrival of spring and the triumph of good over evil.
