When I tried it out of desperation for the very first time I
became a firm believer in the power of sacred water to heal bodily injuries.
Holy water is water that has been sanctified by a priest or bishop for
baptism's purpose or to get the blessings of men, places, or things. The

Spring is the transition period during. It is the winter

As a preventive measure, natural colored powders playfully
which had significance were thrown by individuals. Colors are extremely
important for skin and human nobody. These colors were made out of other
medicinal herbs and Neem, Kumkum, Haldi, Bilwa.
When these colored powders and splashed and fluids have
been smeared, they helped in killing and inoculating the germs in the houses,
surroundings in addition to the body. These colors were also used in spraying

These healing I say, I attribute to having
used water in the church where I attend Mass on Sunday and Thursday of every
week. I guess that water anywhere in the planet should be exactly the same, but
I am referring my information I have been to for the last sixteen decades.
Traditionally, people dip their fingers in the holy water
containers from the doorways. On my church's entrance, a steel container is
readily available for those who want to fill plastic bottles using water that
is holy to take home.
I just recently filled a little bottle of holy water, and
sent it by mail for one of my sisters to carry it over to my sister who suffers
from Parkinson's disease. I wanted my sister to pour the water over my sister's
mind who's lying in bed permanently and ill. My blessings went together with
the water, although I really don't know.

It's a festival of gaiety but then there are several who make this festival. They do it by throwing colors on them by infuriating the strangers; a few use colors that are difficult to remove and dangerous for skin and wellness. We should remember that Holi is a festival of triumph of good over evil although it is taken by many as a day of smoking. We must try to wash off all the evils in our hearts along with the colors and allow the color of love to remain there forever and ever. This is the true spirit of Holi.
