Why Bhai Dooj is Celebrated
Bhai Dooj has a special meaning in Indian tradition. According to Hindu mythology, the story of Lord Yamraj and his sister Yami is linked to this day. It is believed that Yami welcomed her brother with love, put a tilak on his forehead, and prayed for his long life. Lord Yamraj was so pleased that he declared any brother who receives a tilak from his sister on this day will always be blessed with good health, wealth, and happiness.
In different parts of India, Bhai Dooj is known by other names. In West Bengal, people call it Bhai Phonta, and in Maharashtra and Goa, it is known as Bhau Beej. Though the names and customs may differ, the main message of love and protection between brothers and sisters remains the same.
