Raksha Bandhan is a traditional Hindu festival celebrated on the full moon day of Shravan month (usually in August). Its origins trace back to ancient Indian mythology and history, symbolizing the bond of protection between brothers and sisters, where sisters tie a rakhi (sacred thread) on their brothers' wrists.
Bond of Sibling Love
In India, Raksha Bandhan is celebrated with sisters tying rakhis on their brothers’ wrists, praying for their well-being, while brothers promise protection and give gifts in return. Families come together, share sweets, and honor the cherished bond between siblings.
