🧵RAKSHA BANDHAN (Raakhi)
Thread by @bhargavasarma on Thread Reader App threadreaderapp.com/thread/1429263…
Apparently, Raksha Bandhan symbolizes the unmatched bondage of love, care and respect between a brother and a sister which is renewed through the Rakhi festival.
Raksha Bandhan escalates the need for both men and women, young and old to cultivate pious feelings for each other and live in a harmonious co-existence as brothers and sisters in the society.

Above sloka is one of the most popular, meritorious and meaningful sloka on Mantralaya Guru SaArvabhouma Sri Raaghavendra Swamy; It is not an exaggeration that there is no devout Hindu household who doesn't know or recite this simple but powerful sloka; +++
It will B more devotional if this sloka is recited knowing its meaning/significance. For a common man it's a remedy, for a Vedanti (scholar) it speaks volumes about glory of GuruRayaru. Let's try to make novice understanding of this beautiful sloka yatha-shakti, yatha yogyata. ++
