intrinsic meaning of "Dahi Handi"

After several births and deaths we take this human form. ultimate point is to reach the Brahman . We know the destination. But, the path to reach Brahman is not that easy. We often falter because we are not focussed. One in a billion reaches the Brahman .

The game of dahi handi is a group game. Initial pyramid formation is a laborious task. The group has to observe patience. Importantly, there has to be a synchronization between group members. Once the pyramid formation is over a small child will be carried on the shoulders of a member. While reaching for the top spot , to crack the dahi pot, the entire team will be facing a lot of obstacles. In spite of that, the group remain focussed in cracking the dahi handi.

The bottom line: Have a child like mind in life yet, remain focussed, you will attain enlightenment(which is nothing but dahi) . After all, dahi is a churned matter. This human life gives an opportunity to experience.

In case, you failed in your endeavor, you don't worry there is always a next chance given by the Ishwara.
