This festival is celebrated in the full moon day (Rakhi Purnima) in the month of August (Shravana), according to the Hindu calendar. This festival is celebrated in different parts of India with different rituals and is known by various names but the main essence of the festival is same and it is the celebration of the unique bond of love between a brother and a sister. The rituals of the festival include the application of tilak (mark) and chawal (rice) on the forehead of the brothers after invoking the blessings of God. This is followed by arti that is circulating a lamp around the face of the brother.
