Watching others play Holi is witnessing a canvas come alive – faces smeared with bright hues, white garments turned into abstract paintings, and laughter echoing through the air. From a quiet vantage point, one can appreciate the nuances of the festival without the chaos of participation.
The unrestrained joy of children chasing each other with pichkaaris, mischievous grins of friends sneaking up with fists full of gulaal, and the spirited dances to Hindi Holi classic hits. There is a cinematic beauty in the sight before you this day.
To observe, instead of to participate, is a different kind of experience that has its own wonderment and can be equally immersive. It is a reminder that Nature is not alone in bursting with colour and movement. We, part of Nature, can burst forth in equal pomp and excitement, this day. Watching it unfurl with equanimity is, indeed, blissful.
