Raksha Bandhan:

Shravan Purnima is on August 11, Thursday.
Bhadra too is on August 11 (Thursday) which is considered inauspicious.
#rakshabandhan2022 #RakshaBandan

As per religious beliefs, auspicious work is not done in Bhadra Kaal. This is the reason that even Rakhi is not tied in Bhadrakal.

Here's the correct date and time for Raksha Bandhan 2022.

Significance of Raksha Bandhan

Raksha Bandhan comes from Sanskrit “Rakshabandhanam”. Raksha means “To protect” & bandhanam is Bond. Raksha Bandhan - Bond of Protection; widely celebrated in North & West India, falls on full moon day of Shravan

#RakshaBandan is celebrated during the day as per Mahurat declared by Pundits. Girls tie a thread on wrist of their brothers, praying for their good health & long life. Brothers give them a gift, thus promising them to protect them in adverse situations.

In Hinduism, people believe that everyone has a destiny to fulfill and it is based upon one's good & bad karma. Punya karmas mean happiness & prosperity, paap karmas yield sufferings, miseries, diseases and even death.

During this, even tying a rakhi doesn't change the reality & a sister can't get any help from brother. What of girls who don't have a brother? Viewed thus, those girls can never expect protection from anyone.
#rakshabandhan2022 #RakshaBandan

Imagine the heartache those girls must be feeling when they see other girls tying rakhi to their brothers.

When a girl ties a rakhi on her brother’s wrist she expects him to help her during adverse circumstances.

ONLY GOD CAN PROTECT US...
A saint said that if you really want to tie a rakhi to someone, tie it to Supreme God who alone can worldly & spiritual problems. He is the rescuer of all, the one who can be looked upon for help during sufferings.
#rakshabandhan2022 #RakshaBandan

It not only causes pain to those who can't celebrate it; also leads to unnecessary expenses undertaken by people to fulfill traditions. No one in this world, is capable of protecting themselves, then how can they be expected to protect others?
#rakshabandhan2022 #RakshaBandan

If you really want protection, take shelter of supreme almighty as only he is capable to doing anything and everything. There is no word like “IMPOSSIBLE” in his dictionary.
