Happy Raksha Bandhan

Any Indian festival is not complete without the typical Indian festivities, the gatherings, and celebrations, exchange of sweets and gifts, lots of noise, singing and dancing.Rasha Bandhan the festival of Sisters and brothers.

As per the traditions, the sister on this day prepares the pooja thali with diya, roli, chawal and rakhi. She worships the deities, ties Rakhi to the brother(s) and wishes for their well being. The brother in turn acknowledges the love with a promise to be by the sisters’ side through the thick and thin and gives her a token gift.

The festival falls on the Shravan Purnima which is a full moon day of shravan month and which comes generally in the month of August

I wish all of you a Happy Raksha Bandhan.
