One of the warmest and strongest bonds within families are the ones shared between siblings. The bond between a brother and sister is one that holds the test of time. Raksha Bandhan is a celebration of that sacred bond between a brother and sister. There are many legends on the origin of Raksha Bandhan. But the essence of this day, lies in the name itself - the bond of protection.On this day, sisters tie a Rakhi around their brothers wrists - as a token of their love and protection. And in return, the brothers shower them with gifts, sweets and money. Raksha Bandhan is also known as Rakhi Purnima, Saluno, and Rakri, and is celebrated every year on Purnima full moon day of Shravan month as per the Hindu calendar. Happy Raksha Bandhan.
