Hola Mohalla
Hola Mahalla ((パンジャーブ語:ਹੋਲਾ ਮਹੱਲਾ), (ヒンディー語:होला मोहल्ला); also Hola Mohalla or simply Hola) is a one day Sikh festival which takes place on the second day of the lunar month of Chett) (a day after Holi which is a two day festival starting with Holika Dahan on the last day of the lunar month of Phagan on full moon and the actual day of Holi the next day on the first〔Yang, Ananad. A. (1998) Bazaar India: Markets, Society, and the Colonial State in Gangetic Bihar University of California Press ()〕 day of Chett) and most often falls in March, and sometimes coincides with the Sikh New Year.
The fair held at Anandpur Sahib is traditionally a three day event but participants attend Anandpur Sahib for a week, camping out and enjoying various displays of fighting prowess and bravery, and listening to kirtan, music, and poetry. For meals, which is an integral part of the Sikh institution (Gurdwara), visitors sit together in ''Pangats'' (Queues) and eat vegetarian food of the Langars. The event concludes on the day of Hola Mohalla with a long, military-style procession near Takht Sri Keshgarh Sahib, one of the five seats of temporal authority of the Sikhs.
==Etymology==
Bhai Kahan Singh, who compiled the Mahan Kosh (the first Sikh encyclopedia) at the turn of the 20th century, explained, "''Hola'' is derived from the word ''halla'' (a military charge) and the term ''mohalla'' stands for an organized procession or an army column. The words 'Hola Mohalla' would thus stand for 'the charge of an army.'"〔 Dr. M.S. Ahluwalia notes that the related Punjabi term ''mahalia'' (which was derived from the root ''hal'', meaning to alight or descend) refers to "an organized procession in the form of an army column accompanied by war drums and standard-bearers, and proceeding to a given location or moving in state from one to another."〔
''Hola'' is a Sanskrit word meant to be distinguished from ''Holi'';〔 the Hindu spring festival of colors (Holi) which takes place the day before Hola Mahalla.
