Greetings all readers, for the celebration of the festival of Raksha Bandhan, or Raakhi as it is more popularly known.
Today is the full moon day, i.e. the last day of the month of Shravan (Saawan) of the Hindu calendar. Traditionally, the monsoon rains have already set in. The fields that were ploughed and upturned, after the last harvest and before the arrival of rains, are now fully prepared for sowing. For the farmers and their families, this is the auspicious beginning of the sowing season – another crop to tend to, another harvest to look forward to. In most of North India, the farmers will start to sow the wheat crop from this day.
