Why Should You Avoid Bhadra Kaal?
Bhadra Kaal is believed to not be a good time for doing important things like tying Rakhi. Some people still tie Rakhi at the end of Bhadra, but it is not the right way. It is better to wait until Bhadra is over.
Do’s for Raksha Bandhan
- Always perform the Rakhi ceremony during the Shubh Muhurat.
- Use clean and fresh Rakhi items to ensure everything used in the puja is pure and neat.
- Apply Tilak and offer sweets for completing the rituals and adding sweetness to the bond.
- On this festival spend more time with your family and celebrate the day with love, care, and togetherness.
Don’ts for Raksha Bandhan
- Don’t tie Rakhi during Bhadra Kaal as it is not considered good.
- Avoid arguments or negative talks to keep the environment peaceful and joyful.
- Old or damaged Rakhi should not be used.
- Don’t rush with the puja and perform the ritual with patience and devotion.
Celebrate Raksha Bandhan 2025 with love and care. Tie Rakhi at the right time, follow simple traditions, and make the bond between brother and sister stronger with respect and happiness.
