Happy Raksha Bandhan.The chaste bond of love between a brotherand a sister is one of the deepest and noblest of human emotions. Raksha Bandhan or Rakhi is a special occasion to celebrate this emotional bonding by tying a holy thread around the wrist. This thread, which pulsates with sisterly love and sublime sentiments, is rightly called the ‘Rakhi’. It means a bond of protection,and Raksha Bandhansignifies that the strong must protect the weak from all that’s evil.The ritual is observed on the full moon dayof the Hindu monthofShravan,on which sisters tie the sacred Rakhi string on their brothers right wrists, and pray for their long life. Rakhis are ideally made of silk with gold and silver threads, beautifully crafted embroidered sequins, and studdedwith semi precious stones.
