Why We Celebrate Raksha Bandhan?

Origins of Raksha Bandhan According To Mythology.

The origins of Raksha Bandhan can be traced back to various legends from Indian mythology:

  1. Draupadi and Lord Krishna

Mahabharata is one of the most charming stories.  The Pandavas, the wife of the Pandavas, tore a piece of her sari and wrapped it on the damaged finger of Lord Krishna during the war.  This philanthropic act transferred Krishna to Krishna, who vowed to keep him safe forever.  Krishna later put his word and saved Draupadi during the infamous cheer-haran (derogatory) in the Kaurava court.

The spiritual relations and spirit of security representing the Raksha Bandhan are symbols in this story.

  1. Yamuna and Yam (God of Death)

Historical References
