What is bhai dooj?
Bhai dooj is an Indian culture to celebrate the special bond between brother and sister.
Bhai Dooj is celebrated two days after Diwali and is a part of the five-day-long festival of lights.

The Bhai dooj story
According to this legend, Lord Krishna went to see his sister Subhadra, after slaying the demon, Narakasura.
His sister welcomed him with flowers and aarti and put a tilaka on his forehead. He in turn, showered her with gifts.
This gesture gave birth to the festival with sisters praying for the long life of their brothers.

What’s the difference between bhai dhuj & Rakshabandhan?
On raakhi or Rakshabandhan, the sister ties a rakhi on her brother.
On Bhai Dhuj, the sister applies a red sindhur tilaka (tikka) on the brother’s forehead.

What do sisters do on Bhai Dooj?
The main difference is in the essence of the relationship.
While a brother makes a promise of protecting his sister on Rakhi, during Bhai Dooj, it's vice-versa. The vermillion that a sister puts on her brother's forehead on this day besides being auspicious is also supposed to protect him and shield her sibling from evil forces.

Are sweets given on Bhai dooj?
Gifts and sweets are given to sisters by their brothers. Economically this is the time when farmers have harvested their crops and are good with their collected wealth. People in India celebrate festivals with gifts and presents at this time.

Indian Values and ethics
Values like love, respect and affection are very important to India and its culture. There are many festivals involving families.

Arti and Tilaka
Ceremonies like Arti and Tilaka have their own importance. The flame of Arti is said to ward off evil powers from the environment and is performed in all the Indian festivals to purify the place.
Tilaka on the forehead between the eyebrows is a mark of power and prestige.

What is Hindu origin?
Hinduism is over 5000 years old & the tradition & these values have withstood the test of time.
