In India, brothers use Raksha Bandhan as an opportunity to show their love for their sisters, while the sisters, by tying the sacred thread of protection called ‘Rakhi’ implicitly prays for the brother’s wellbeing. On Raksha Bandhan, what adds to the merrymaking is the exchange of gifts. In modern day, as our culture and lifestyles evolve, gifts become a more important part of every festival.
Yet, at the core of it, gifts exchanged on Raksha Bandhan mark a more long lasting bond. The entire family is involved. It is not uncommon to see married women visiting their maternal homes to tie a Rakhi to their brothers. At the same time, those located away from the city are sent out rakhis by post. This seals the sacred bond, nurtured on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan, as also throughout the year.
Raksha Bandhan, this year, will fall on 24 August. Since it is a working day, a lot of people working in offices where it is not a compulsory leave will be taking an off. Many complete the rituals early morning before going to office. It is a mixed bag. What remains constant is the feeling behind it and the spirit of ceaseless love. After all, Raksha Bandhan speaks for itself.
