In India, we celebrate many festivals to strengthen relations. Father’s day, “A special day which is dedicated to all fathers”, Like wise Mother’s day which celebrated to strong the bonding between children and mother. Like all these festivals, Brother – Sister Relation is also celebrated in a way called Raksha Bandhan.

Raksha Bandhan is a Hindu festival that celebrates the love and duty between brothers and sisters. It is called Rakhi Purnima, or simply Rakhi, in many parts of India. The festival is observed by Hindus, Jains, and many Sikhs. Raksha Bandhan is primarily observed in India, Mauritius and parts of Nepal. It is also celebrated by Hindus and Sikhs in parts of Pakistan, and by some people of Indian origin around the world. The festival falls on the full moon day (Shravan Poornima) of the Shravan month of the Hindu lunisolar calendar.

There is always a story or legend behind celebrating any festival. Same as others, there is also legendry behind this Raksha Bandhan festival. One is the legend of Queen Karnavati and Emperor Humayun. According to the Indian medieval history, Queen Karnavati of the Rajput Kingdom, Chittor had sent a Rakhi to Humayun the Mughal Emperor of Delhi seeking his help against Bahadur Shah of Mewar.

Emperor Humayun knew about the significance of Rakhi in the Hindu community hence accepted her request to protect Queen Karnavati. Since then the ritual of tying of a sacred thread Rakhi on the wrist of brothers is celebrated with much fervour all over the country.

The legend of King Bali and Goddess Laxmi is a popular one. According to the legend Lord Vishnu was immensely pleased with his devotee King Bali thus granting him a boon of immortality and promised heavenly protection for his kingdom. In order to fulfil his promise Lord Vishnu left his abode Vaikunthdham and came to stay with King Bali.

Soon Goddess Laxmi visited King Bali on the Shravan Poornima day disguised a poor Brahmin lady and tied Rakhi on his wrist. When King Bali tried to give her some present, she revealed her true identity and asked the King to send Lord Vishnu back with her to Vaikunthdham.

Another legend is of Yama (the God of death) and Yamuna. It is believed that on every Shravan Poornima day Yamuna used to tie a sacred thread on Yama’s wrist. Yama was so moved by the serenity of this custom that he declared that whosoever gets a Rakhi tied on his wrist from his sister and promised her protection will become protection.

Since then Raksha Bandhan celebrates the eternal bond between brothers and sisters all over the country.

Each and everyone enjoy this festival with full of joy. People start preparation before some days. Days or weeks before Raksha Bandhan, women shop for Rakhi, the ceremonial thread to tie around her brother’s (or brother-like friend’s) wrist. Many women made Rakhi themselves for their loving brothers.

A Rakhi may be a simple thread, woven and colorful; or a Rakhi may be intricate with amulets and decoration on top of it. Rakhi is a simple thread, which strengthen or binds the relation of Brother – Sister with a node.

On this special day everyone wear new dresses and Bothers and Sisters get together. If Brother – Sister live in separate areas, on this special day they get together to celebrate this special festival. Different sweets and dishes made in house or bought from outside. The ritual typically begins in front of a lighted lamp (diya) or candle, which signifies fire deity. The sister and brother face each other. . This ritual sometimes involves an aarti, where a tray with lighted lamp or candle is ritually rotated around the brother’s face, along with the prayer and well wishes.

The sister ties the Rakhi on her brother’s wrist.She pray for her brother’s long life, good health, prosperity and happiness. In return brother offers gifts and share best wishes and blessings to his sister.  Brothers promise to his sisters that they will protect them every bad thing life time, they will stay together always. Brothers give several kinds of gifts to sisters like cards, money, teddy, clothes or thoughtfully. Family members share sweets and have delicious food together.
