Raksha bandhan: a wish of protection
Everybody loves Raksha bandhan. When we are young, it is a fun day in the summer on which everybody gets dressed up; gifts are given and nice food eaten. Girls tie rakhis on the wrists of their brothers, cousins, and sometimes close friends. At the end of the day, almost every Hindu boy will have several rakhis around their wrist, one of the few visible markers of Hindu identity that every Hindu boy will share simultaneously.
