Vishwaguruji's message for Raksha Bandhan

Raksha means protection, Bandhan means a promise. When the girl ties a thread on the wrist of the boy, she becomes his real sister. This is the thread of protection and support in the relation of brother and sister, which is equal to the blood relation. If you adopt and accept a Raksha Bandhan sister or brother, you shall never think of getting married with this person. To break this relation of sister and brother is a sin, according to the ethical and moral principles.

May God forever bless you and fulfil your wish with this thread of respect, support and protection.
