Rakhi with Sweets - Celebrate your siblings with our exhaustive range of rakhi with sweets, without leaving the comforts of your home

“To the outside world we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each other's hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We live outside the touch of time.”

                                                                                                                                                                               Clara Ortega

As the month of sawan begins, it brings with it the fervour of Raksha Bandhan which in Sanskrit, means ‘the tie or knot of protection’. This is a festival that seals the bonds of love between brothers and sisters and brings them closer.

One of the oldest traditions of India, Raksha Bandhan is a celebration of this special and unique relationship. The delicate threads that make a rakhi are revered more strongly than iron chains – cementing the bond between brothers and sisters. A rakhi might be made of fragile thread, but the moment it is tied around a brother’s wrist with love and devotion, it becomes sacred. It becomes an unbreakable alliance of trust, love, friendship, security, and dependability.

While Raksha Bandhan’s roots stem from Hinduism, but it is not just a Hindu festival. It is an important tradition in the history of Sikhism too, often called ‘Rakhardi’ or ‘Rakhadi’. It is also celebrated in Jainism, wherein a Jain priest hands out threads to the devotees.

Another such legend is that of Lord Krishna and Draupadi. Lord Krishna, in the war against King Shishupal, had injured his hand. Seeing his hand bleeding, Draupadi tore a strip of cloth from her sari and tied it around Lord Krishna’s wrist. Upon realizing her concern and sisterly affection, Lord Krishna proclaimed himself her brother. Many years later, when she needed protection from the Kauravas, Lord Krishna protected her.

Another famous story is that of Rani Karnavati and Emperor Humayun. During the medieval times the protection of sisters and sacredness of the bond of rakhi was at it peak. Also, the Rajputs were fighting the Muslim Invasion. When Rani Karnavati, the widow of the king of Chittor realized that she could not hold off the invasion of the Sultan of Gujrat- Bahadur Shah on her own, she sent a letter with a rakhi to Emperor Humayun. Moved by this gesture, the Emperor left at once with troops, to protect and provide aid to Rani Karnavati.

Throughout history, there have been multiple examples of a rakhi being a symbol for protection. It was often tied by daughters, wives, or mothers to keep the men in the family from any harm. So, even if you don’t have brother, it doesn’t mean that this festival isn’t for you. In today’s date, often sisters tie a rakhi on their sister's wrists to celebrate the bond they share.
