Brother and Sister Quotes in English: Across India and in Hindu communities worldwide, the sacred bonds between brothers and sisters are honored on Raksha Bandhan. Over many centuries, the rakhi (from Sanskrit, “the tie or knot of affection”) has evolved from simple, handspun threads into bangles adorned in jewels, crystals, cartoon characters and even political figures.
On a broader scale, Raksha Bandhan is a time for harmonious existence and a bond between leaders – teachers, political figures, civil authorities – and those they serve.
