Happy Rakshaa-Bandhan Day to all of you. Rakshaa-Bandhan is celebrated on the full-moon day of Shraavan month of Hindu calender. On this day, all sisters tie a sacred thread on the wrist of their brothers - symbolic expression of their love and affection for their brothers and the brothers, in turn, take the responsibility of protecting their sisters. In Indian tradition, the frangible thread of Rakhi is considered even stronger than an iron chain as it strongly binds the brothers and sisters in the circumference of mutual love and trust. Traditionally, sisters chant following Mantra while tying the Rakhi on their brothers wrists ... येन बद्धो बलीराजा दानवेन्द्रो महाबलः तेन त्वामनुबध्नामि रक्षे मा चल मा चल yena baddho baleeraajaa daanavendro mahaabalah tena twaamanubadhnaami rakshe maa chala maa chala On the request of all the Gods, Lord Vishnu tied up the strong and powerful demon king Bali with his strength. I am tying the power of the Vishnu Shakti, in the form of Rakhi, on your hand. With the force and energy of this sacred thread, all the Gods will stand at your side and keep you healthy and wealthy for ever. Be firm, do not falter.
