Raksha Bandhan is a festival of promise which is done by a brother to his sister, by celebrating this festival the brother promises his sister to protect her and take care of her throughout his whole life and the sister prays for the well-being of her bother.

This festival is celebrated by tying an auspicious thread. This thread is called “Rakhi” which is tied by a sister to bother on his right hand. The knot of the thread is considered as the knot of strong bonding of love, responsibility, a promise between brothers and sisters.

The word “Raksha Bandhan” comes from a Sanskrit word. Where “Raksha” means “protect” and “Bandhan” means “to tie”.

This auspicious festival is mostly celebrated in the month of august or as per the Hindu calendar it’s during the month of Sravana on the full moon day.

How did This Festival Start?

There are many mythological stories behind this festival let’s find out where all this began. It is said that in Mahabharata

  • When Lord Krishna got hurt then Draupadi tore her piece of sari and tied it on lord Krishna’s wrist, and in return for Draupadi’s kind gesture lord, Krishna promises her to protect her and keep her safe from everything.

Another evidence of Raksha Bandhan was noticed in the story of Rajputana and Mughal in the medieval era When Rani Karnavati was finding it hard to defeat the Sultan of Gujarat, Bahadur Shah. Then to safeguard her territory of Chittor she sends Rakhi to Mughal Emperor Humayun. The Emperor was besieged by the gesture and help Rani Karnavati to protect her kingdom.

 It is said that Rabindranath Tagore in the Bengal partition of 1905 Rabindranath Tagore started celebrating Raksha Bandhan to build up the bond of love and unity between Hindu and Muslims of Bengal. And also to urged them to protest against Britishers. As people in the parts of West Bengal till today not only tie Rakhi to their bother and sisters but also their neighbors and friends. Raksha Bandhan is not only celebrated in India but also celebrated in some parts of Nepal. Raksha Bandhan is just not a festival moreover it is an act to remember their love and responsibility towards others it is the practice of humanity done in different parts of India.  Before Raksha Bandhan’s sisters buy beautiful Rakhis and sweets for their brothers and brothers also buy gifts to cherish their sisters.
