According to Hindu mythology, there was once a demon king named Hiranyakashipu who was against the devotion of his son Prahlad to Lord Vishnu. As a result, Hiranyakashipu asked his sister Holika to kill Prahlad. However, when Holika tried to kill Prahlad by taking him to a funeral pyre, she herself was consumed by the fire while Prahlada emerged unharmed, protected by Lord Vishnu.
