Rakhi
or raksha bandhan is celebratory of the brother-
sister tie and it is one occasion where brothers
and sisters come together to re-affirm their ties
and exchange blessings and good wishes. The traditional
practice involved sisters tying a sacred thread
at the wrists of their brothers to protect them
from evil and misfortune. In turn the brother
took a pledge to protect his sister from all harm.

All
over India, Rakhi is celebrated on the Shravana
Purnima falling in the months of July and August.
This year, Raksha Bandhan is celebrated on 30th
of August. The festival is so popular among Indians,
that Shravana Purnima is named as Rakhi Purnima.

are various legends about the origin of rakhi,
all rooted in the Indian mythologies . This festival,
which falls in the Shravan masa (July-August)
has come to be celebrated exclusively by brothers
and sisters, though there are many legends connecting
Rakhi to wives and husbands and gurus and shishyas.
