Especially, when some festival arrives, the emotions take over. Rakshabandhan is also one of such festivals when every brother-sister wishe to be together. And, if you two are not together, worry not.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftalove.com\/rakhi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Online rakhi stores<\/a> <\/strong>empower you to buy and send rakhi to your brother. These stores provide you an immense choice in rakhi and <strong>rakhi gifts for brother<\/strong>. But, the need of the time is to do something different and valuable to add more meaning to this sacred occasion. Tell your brother or sister some stories behind the origin of this holy ceremony and keep the original spirit of this festival, alive.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few stories which you must share to keep the traditional celebrations lively.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong> Lord Indra and Indrani: <\/strong>The tradition of \u2018Raksha Bandhan\u2019 is believed to be originated from the ancient tale of Lord Indra and his wife Devi Indrani. Lord Indra was disgraced by demon king Bali in a war between gods and devils. And, when tensed Indrani consulted Lord Vishnu, he gave her a divine thread to tie on Indra\u2019s wrist as \u2018Raksha Sutra\u2019. Therefore, Indra succeeded to win back Amaravati by defeating demon Bali.<\/li>\n<li><strong> Guru Brihaspati and Lord Indra: <\/strong>Some other sources believe that it was Lord Indra who went to his guru Brihaspati to seek help. Guru Brihaspati gave him a sacred thread and directed to get that religious thread tied on his wrist by his wife Indrani. Then Devi Indrani tied the holy charm with proper chanting of holy mantra of protection, on the full moon day. Consequently, Lord Indra succeeded to get his rule back in heaven.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>3.Lord Krishna and Drupadi: <\/strong>It is mentioned in the epic Mahabharata, how lord Krishna saved Drupadi during \u2018Cheerharan\u2019 by Kauravas. It was just because of one promise he made to Drupadi by saying \u201cAkshyam\u201d (may it be unending).It is told that Lord Krishna got a cut on his finger on some occasion when Drupadi tied a piece of her sari on his profusely bleeding finger. Influenced by this act of Drupadi, he gave the promise to protect her in all circumstances.<\/p><div class=\"osqwh6630eb61998a4\" ><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-1998875270506674\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block\"\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-gw-3+1f-3d+2z\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1998875270506674\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"9051392349\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 1201px) {\r\n.osqwh6630eb61998a4 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 993px) and (max-width: 1200px) {\r\n.osqwh6630eb61998a4 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 769px) and (max-width: 992px) {\r\n.osqwh6630eb61998a4 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 768px) {\r\n.osqwh6630eb61998a4 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (max-width: 767px) {\r\n.osqwh6630eb61998a4 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n<\/style>\r\n\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong> King Porus and Alexander: <\/strong>It is believed that the sacred thread or \u2018Rakhi\u2019 saved the life of Alexander\u2019 the Great. Alexander\u2019s wife Roxein (real name Ruksana) when reached Bharatbhumi (Indian land) after Alexander invaded India, sent a rakhi to the Katoch King Porus. In return, Porus (Puru) pledged to protect her and her man. So, during the war between two kings, when Puru was about to kill Alexander, that rakhi refrained him to kill Alexander.<\/li>\n<li><strong> Rani Jindan and Nepal King: <\/strong>Maharaja Ranjit Singh was the ruler of the Sikh Empire when British conquered the Sikh territories in 1849. Maharani Jindan was his wife who sent a Rakhi to that time Nepal ruler. He protected Maharani Jindan by providing her refuge in one of the Hindu kingdoms of Nepal.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Thus, \u2018Rakshabandhan\u2019 signifies many important things.
