Talking about Raksha Bandhan, aunt Nikki wrote in her caption, "in Hindi langu, raksha means “to protect,” and bandhan means “bond.” During this festival, a sister ties a thread around her bror’s wrist as a symbol of ir love and as a testament that bror will protect his sister. I read that this action is also meant to protect bror from bad influences. I love this sentiment of brors and sisters caring for one ar and find it very appropriate that we would get to celebrate Raksha Bandhan today".
