Raksha Bandhan, a festival symbolizing brother and sister
relationship.
It's when sister ties rakhi on brothers wrist.
We have many famous stories depicting brother and sister
relationship, few have always been
famous in our history books is between Queen Karmavati and Emperor Humayun (wiki link)
Happen to read another interesting story of which I was not
aware…. Of King Alexander (I hope u did not guess this one)(wiki link)
The festival is not just between brother and sister in
bloodline relation, as certain brother as sister relationship sprouts in our
usual walk of life.... So during our school days.. Some during college days
however I stayed away from college couple of days before and after like
everyone else....
I don't actually recall when someone had actually tied and
Rakhi (I have many cousin sister, and all of them are in Kerala, over where
Rakha-Bhandhan is not as popular, current generation might due to advent of
Hindi tele shows.
I was not expecting after all this time I would get a Rakhi,
however to my surprise I got a Rakhi sister this time, I knew her for last 3-4
year, she is a nice person and has good set of principles that she follows in
her life which I like about her.
I will be selfish and would expect a Rakhi from her next
year and year after to it as well :-)
Happy Rakha Bhandhan.
