Holi is an Indian festival of fun and frolic. Behind the revelry, there is a profound philosophy of life. Written with colours on the face, this prayer points to that philosophy.

May we learn to laugh at ourselves!

May we learn to be funny at the cost of ourselves!

May we learn to dance and sing - virtues that we had forgotten in the hustle-bustle of life!

May we be naughty and childlike without any malice!

May we learn to love one and all selflessly!

May we never be full of so much gravity that we are unable to fly!

May we never be angry with anyone!

May we never fear anything or anyone!

May we never be so greedy that we cannot give to our neighbour!

May we never worry!

May we always be full of joys, even when things are not turning out as per our expectations!

May we always have hope even when there is darkness all around!

May our country and world see peace, prosperity and happiness today, tomorrow and day after!
