Raksha Bandhan or Rakhi is a Hindu festival marked by the full moon in the month of sharavana of the Hindu calendar. The word Raksha Bandhan or Rakhi means the bond of protection. It symbolises the love and affection between a brother and sister as well as the solemn vow that every brother takes to protect his sister. The vow is symbolised by a sacred thread that a girl ties around her brother’s wrist, receiving gifts and money in return. In fact this sacred thread has many legends associated with it which depict the high esteem in which it is held. One of the famous legends concerns Rani Karnavati of Chittor who when realised could not defend her kingdom against attack by the king of Gujarat Bahadur Shah sent a Rakhi to Humayun who was busy in his own campaigns, but on receiving the sacred thread he immediately rushed to Chittor to honour the solemn bond. Rakhi is celebrated not only in India but all over the world where Indians are settled.
