On Rakhi / Raksha Bandha day we celebrates the unbreakable bond between brothers and sisters, commemorated by tying Rakhi on your sibling’s hands. Annually, Rakhi falls on the Poornima Tithi (full moon day) of the Shukla Paksha in Shravan Maas (Sawan month).
In the Bhagavat Puran and Vishnu Puran, after Vishnu conquers the three world from King Bali, King Bali asks Vishnu to live in his palace. Goddess Lakshmi, Vishnu’s wife, is not happy about this arrangement. She ties a rakhi on King Bali making him a brother. Honored by the gesture, King Bali grants her a wish.
It is also said that once Lord Krishna cut his finger, Draupadi tied a piece of cloth from her saree, which stopped the bleeding. After this incident, the piece of cloth becomes a sacred thread and symbolizes the true significance of Raksha Bandhan.
We pray that the bond of love continues to grow stronger in families and communities at large. We wish that this Raksha Bandhan brings us all the unlimited happiness and infinite success in everything we do. Let’s collectively protect the humanity from the evil forces of hatred and communalism.
Happy Raksha Bandhan to All. 🌹
Stay United and Stay Blessed. 🙏
