When sisters send rakhi to India, it means that they are offering prayers for the happiness, prosperity, and long life of their brothers and their families.

A brother, who proudly sports rakhis on his wrists, glows with the pride and love for his sisters. A Rakhi to India is a symbol of the love of a sister and a commitment of a brother to protect her sister and her happiness at all costs.

Online rakhi collection at Gujarat Giftsincludes:

  • Sandalwood (chandan) rakhis that come with their delightful fragrance. Sandalwood is considered sacred and is a favourite of Lord Vishnu. Sandalwood rakhis may contain small sandalwood beads, trinkets or shavings.
  • Rudraksha rakhis may have one or more rudraksha beads in the centre. A favourite of Lord Shiva, a wrinkled rudraksha bead is said to attract good health and fortune and ward off evil and bad luck.
  • Mauli Rakhis are simple, traditional and comfortable to wear.  Mauli strands are often tied on the wrists when one performs a puja and it is considered auspicious for the wearer.
  • Lumba rakhis are beautiful. Originally, they come from Rajasthan and are tied on the wrists of sister-in-laws (bhabhis). In a religion that considers wife to be the other half of the husband, it cannot be enough for a sister to just pray for the protection of his brother. Thus, Lumba rakhis wish all the good health and fortune for the bhabhis too.
