No matter how much your sibling annoys you, the love for them is always special. Raksha Bandhan is a day dedicated to expressing the love, togetherness, and bond between brother and sister.
Raksha Bandhan has its traditional roots dating back to Hindu mythology when Draupadi ties a piece of her saree to Krishna's wrist to stop his bleeding from a battle wound. In return, Krishna promised Draupadi that he would be there to protect her in any hardship touched by her lovable gesture.
Moreover, the History of Hindu Mythology provides several reasons to celebrate Raksha Bandhan. Today, Rakhi is being celebrated worldwide under different names and methodologies, including Jainism and Sikhism.
Raksha Bandhan is a Sanskrit word, meaning “the tie or knot of protection”. “Raksha”, stands for protection, and “Bandhan” stands for the verb to tie, signifying the love and bond of a brother-sister relationship.
