Referring to the ancient story from the Vishnu Purana, he narrates how the arrogant king Hiranyakashipu misused his spiritual powers for self-glorification and control. Despite gaining boons from Brahma, his ego led to tyranny and downfall. His son Prahlad’s unwavering faith in truth remained unshaken even in the face of death. Holika’s clever misuse of her powers resulted in her own destruction. Finally, the emergence of Narasimha symbolizes that truth defeats ego beyond all clever calculations. Acharya Ji emphasizes that hard work and power, when driven by ego, become destructive. Holi thus represents the burning of arrogance and the triumph of innocence, faith, and truth. 🎧 Listen to Acharya Prashant on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2QmVEAAnsNE7Xs0MW0Li8Y?si=09fbcbc7c99c469b&nd=1&dlsi=2d753e5523df4ceb Music Credits: Milind Date ~~~~~~
