The burning of Holika the demon the nite before Holi can be compared to burning of Guy Fawkes
Holi can be compared to the Spanish 'Toma tina' festival where they throw tomatoes on one another.

nope
the only thing i can think of that can be comparable is the story of noah's great flood.
the entire western version of the story is a copy of 'manu' and the flood.
i was talking to a muslim friend of mine and i tell him the name manu that i had found online and he instantly says 'u mean noah'...thats when i found out that its not just a coincident that noah and manu stories are similar. noah translates to 'manu' in arabic. and the entire noah story is a western version of what happened to manu.
