Rākhī derives its name from the root word Rākhā, meaning full moon 🌕 with which it’s associated. The organic 🌙turmeric-sanctified organic cotton threads 🧵 <sutrās> consecrated through established processes with the energy of mantrās, yantrās & tantrās, strengthen the flexible life bonds & self-heal their illusory cracks, seen 👀 through the prisms of our own dullness & inertia <tamasik gunās>, represented by asurās to Hitler to Xi.

There are many metaphysical & historical examples of Rākhī’s miraculous effects:

1. This Monday, we already explored Bhavishya purānā’s account of the first rākhī sutrā tied to Indrā by his wife Sachi to enable his victory in the jaws of defeat;
2. Lakshmī tying a rākhī sutrā to Bali Chakravarthy in pātāla lokā, persuading him to request her benevolent husband Nārāyanā who had Himself decided to stay with His righteous devotee Bali, in the form of a dwarf <Vāmana avatārā> along with his doorkeepers <dwāra-pālakās>. Rākhī thus enabled the reunion of our everythingness with its own power of prosperity;
3. Yudhi-sthirā & the other pāndavās received protective rākhīs from Srī Krsnabefore the Mahābhāratā war, enabling their eventual victory;
4. King “Porus” @ Purushottamā was about to kill Alexander “the Great,” but the latter’s wife Roxana tied a rākhī to Porus pleading for her husband’s life, which was granted;
5. Rāni Karnāvati sent a rākhī to Humāyun seeking his support to defeat Bahadur Shāh of Gujarāt & thus saved her kingdom.
6. One of the multiple ways in which the colonial era was resisted was through Lokmānya Bal Gangādhar Tilak’s social integration of Hindus & Muslims by promoting their tying rākhīs to each other.
7. Those who protect righteousness are themselves protected by the same thread of righteousness: धर्मो रक्षति रक्षितः <dharmō rakṣati rakṣitaḥ>

Recognise that the fabric of life can only appear torn to the jaundiced eyes 👀, never to the awakened eye 👁! Immunity-boosting organic turmeric-based mould of Ganeshā & the spatially- & temporally-protective Bhairavā are significant tools 🧰 to access today too. Extrapolating on a message of Srī Krsnā in the Srimad Bhagavad Gita 7.7, a sūtrā has the capability to unscramble our virtually scattered lives into the real universal life:
