Guest guest Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Happy Raksha Bandhan 'Raksha Bandhan' Raksha means 'protection' This Raksha' is considered two-fold. The sister ties a colored thread (raakhi) on the brother's wrist to remind him that he is to protect her during times of adversity, and it is believed that the sister protects her brother by virtue of the fact that she prays that her brother is always saved from harm's way always, and in every way. Lord Krishna advised Yudhishtra, the eldest of the Pandavas to observe the Raksha Bandhan Ritual to ward off untoward incidents. Words from the bro Shakun´s blog: http://dalsabzi.com/Language_Festivals/raksha_bandhan.htm Happy Raksha Bandhan !!! to all my saibrothers and saisisters all over the world from sister Doris dorisainews and family.
