Narasimha Dwadashi is a significant Hindu festival dedicated to Lord Narasim Ha. It is celebrated on the 12th day of Dwadash of Falgun, typically falling three days before Holi. In 2024, Narasinha DwAdashi is being celebrated on Monday, March 10. The festival holds great importance as it marks the day when Lord Vishnu, in his Nar asimha form, saved Prahlada and restored order in the universe. Worshipping Lord NarAsimha on this day is believed to protect devotees from negative forces, evil influences, and obstacles in life. Devotees are encouraged to get up before sunrise and take a holy bath to purify the mind and body. A tilak of yellow sandalwood paste or saffron is applied on the forehead. This is a traditional symbol of auspiciousness, representing the blessings of Lord Nar Asimha. The idol is bathed with pure water, milk, and turmeric orsaffron. This cleansing ritual is done to purifying the idol, preparing it to receive offerings and prayers. While fasting is not mandatory, many devotees choose to observe a fast on Narasitash. The day symbolizes the eternal victory of righteousness over tyranny and evil. By celebrating this day, devotees strengthen their faith in divine justice and the ultimate triumph of good.
