Raksha Bandhan 2023: This time due to the excess month, many fasts and festivals including Rakshabandhan will be delayed. According to the Hindu calendar, after every 3 years, Adhikamas, also known as Malmas, comes, due to which the additional time of one-month increases. Adhikamas will end on the 16th of August, after which fasting and festivals will start. After the end of Adhikamas, the festival of Nag Panchami and then Raksha Bandhan will be considered first. The festival of Raksha Bandhan has special significance in Hinduism. The festival of Raksha Bandhan is celebrated all over the country with great pomp and show in the form of mutual love between brothers and sisters. On Rakshabandhan, sisters tie rakhi on the wrist of their brothers and pray to God for their long life and happiness and prosperity. In return, the brother takes a pledge to protect the sister from every trouble that comes in her life. On Rakshabandhan, sisters perform aarti by applying Tilak on the forehead of their brothers and feeding them sweets. The brothers give gifts to their sisters.
When is Raksha Bandhan
According to the Hindu calendar, the festival of Raksha Bandhan is celebrated every year on the full moon day of the Shukla Paksha of the month of Shravan. This time Shravan Purnima Tithi is falling on two days i.e. 30 and 31 August, as well as the shadow of Bhadra, will also remain on Shravan Purnima Tithi. According to religious beliefs, the festival of Rakshabandhan is never celebrated when there is a shadow of Bhadra. Sisters are prohibited to tie rakhi on their brother's wrist during the Bhadra period. The time of Bhadra Kaal is considered very inauspicious and no auspicious work is done during this time. Let us know for how long the shadow of Bhadra will remain on the festival of Raksha Bandhan and when to celebrate the festival of Rakhi and what will be the auspicious time to tie Rakhi.

Know what is Bhadra?
According to religious texts and scriptures, Bhadra is the sister of Shani Dev and the child of Lord Surya and Mother Chhaya. According to mythology, Bhadra was born to destroy demons. When Bhadra was born, immediately after taking birth she started making the whole universe her morsel. In this way, wherever auspicious and auspicious work, yagya, and rituals are performed due to Bhadra, there starts to be trouble. For this reason, when Bhadra is observed, no auspicious work is done. Bhadra has got a place in 7th Karan i.e. Vishti Karan among 11 Karans.
According to the calculations of the Vedic calendar, Bhadra resides in three worlds. This means Bhadra resides in heaven, the underworld, and the earth. When Moon is present in Cancer, Leo, Aquarius, and Pisces. Then Bhadra resides on the earth. When Bhadra resides in Prithvi Lok, Bhadra's face is towards the front. In such a situation, doing any kind of auspicious and auspicious work is prohibited during this time. Auspicious work done in Bhadra is never successful. According to legend, Ravana's sister had tied a rakhi during Bhadrakal itself, due to which Ravana was destroyed at the hands of Lord Rama.
