Brothers and sisters share a weirdly beautiful bond-- they might often fight with each other, but deep down they have an unbreakable bond of love. In honour of this beautiful bond between siblings, Raksha Bandhan is celebrated every year in India. Raksha Bandhan, also called Rakhi, is celebrated on the last day of the month of Sharavana, according to the Hindu calendar. On this day, sisters tie colourful Rakhis to their brothers and pray for his good health and prosperity, while the brothers in return give a gift to their sisters and promise to protect her. Rakhi celebrates the bond between sisters and brothers. Whether you're at home or away from your siblings, you can send your loved ones these meaningful images, quotes and wishes to celebrate with your beloved sister/brother:
Dearest sister,
First of all a very "Happy Raksha Bandhan".
This Raksha Bandhan I promise
I will always hold your back,
Whenever you turn back,
You will find me always.
My darling brother, I know I fight with you a lot, but today, at an auspicious occasion of Raksha Bandhan, I just want to tell you that you are my world and being your sister is an honour to me.
Sending you a thread of love which will bind our heart and life and makes our bond of togetherness stronger. Happy Raksha Bandhan! Wishing you a very Happy Raksha Bandhan!!
Our bond of love is forever. No one can listen and understand me like you do dear sister. Thanks for being the most amazing friend and a dear sister. Thanks for caring about me like a mother and love me the most. I am very grateful to have you in my life.
No one can love, respect, tease, protect and understand me as you do my good-looking brother. Happy Raksha Bandhan!
A brother shares childhood memories and grown-up dreams.
I, who have no sisters or brothers, look with some degree of innocent envy on those who may be said to be born to friends.
For there is no friend like a sister in calm or stormy weather; To cheer one on the tedious way, to fetch one if one goes astray, to lift one if one totters down, to strengthen whilst one stands.
A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost.
Sisters are probably the most competitive relationship within the family, but once sisters are grown, it becomes the strongest relationship.
A sister can be seen as someone who is both ourselves and very much not ourselves - a special kind of double.
I pray to God that our love for each other keeps growing year after year. Happy Raksha Bandhan!
R: rock healthy relationship
A: acceptance all along
K: kindness to the core
H: heartwarming presence
I: idealistic relationship,
Happy Raksha Bandhan.
You mean more to me than any words can express. The countless memories I have with you are something I always cherish and appreciate. I don’t know what I would do without you! Happy Raksha Bandhan.
We disagree. We fight. We argue. But my love for you is eternal. Happy Raksha Bandhan to you dear sister.
You are my best friend who has always been there for me. I know that whenever I need you, you will always be there for me. Thank you for all the love, care and support! Happy Raksha Bandhan!
Dear Brother, while tying this Rakhi, I pray to God for your peace, happiness, and prosperity. A warm and loving person like you deserves the best of life. Happy Raksha Bandhan.
We might not be together on this Raksha Bandhan, but that doesn't change my love for you. I promise to always take care of you and protect you. Happy Raksha Bandhan!
"Siblings fight, pull each other's hair, steal stuff, and accuse each other indiscriminately.
But siblings also know the undeniable fact that they are the same blood, share the same origins, and are family.
Even when they hate each other.
And that tends to put all things in perspective.”
On this Rakhi, let’s bring back the lively spirit of childhood, play pranks with each other and become that wacky sibling we were always. Happy Raksha Bandhan.
“To the outside world, we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each other’s hearts. We’ve shared private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We live outside a touch of time.” – Clara Ortega
“Your brother and sister, if you have them, are the brother and sister you know best. They may not be the ones you like the best. They may not be the most interesting, but they are the closest and probably the clearest to you.” – James Salter
“Power, that’s one thing, but love of family and of siblings is more important, is more powerful than any other power – at least earthly power, at least earthly power.” – Sander Levin
“Brothers and sisters can say things to one another that no one else can.” – Gregory E. Lang
“A bond as important as that of a husband and wife, is the bond between siblings.” – Lee Dong-Wook
“Be nice to your siblings, they’re your best link to your past and the most likely to stay with you in the future.” – Baz Lurhmann
Sibling relationships…outlast marriages, survive the death of parents, resurface after quarrels that would sink any friendship. They flourish in a thousand incarnations of closeness and distance, warmth, loyalty and distrust.” – Erica E. Goode
“Brother and sister, together as friends, ready to face whatever life sends. Joy and laughter or tears and strife, holding hands tightly as we dance through life.” – Suzie Huitt
“We know one another’s faults, virtues, catastrophes, mortifications, triumphs, rivalries, desires, and how long we can each hang by our hands to a bar. We’ve been banded together under pack codes and tribal laws.” – Rose Macaulay
