Explanation:
If one festival embodies the Hindu family value of filial responsibility, it is Raksha Bandhan. Otherwise known as Rhaki, after the bracelet that a sister ties to her brother's wrist during this day of celebration, Raksha Bandhan is an ancient tradition. Its purpose is to honor the relationship between brother and sister, symbolizing a sister's need of his protection, and his duty to defend her.In Sanskrit, Raksha Bandhan means 'tie of protection.' On this festive day, the sister ties a Rhaki bracelet made of silken threads of red and gold, to her brother's wrist, praying for his health. The brother responds by vowing to protect her. The sentiment is to renew and strengthen the filial bond of peace and love. During the ceremony, sacred verses from Hindu scriptures are spoken.
