the Hindus had their little quirks
And the simple things like Raksha Bandhan.
It's a little string
that we tie once a year
on the wrist, or at religious festivals,
or family weddings and parties
Blessed string tied by an elder,
in the old days, I remember,
I had been to a wedding in the early days
cousin's wedding, and I had
a dhaga or a piece of string
tied to signify
a party, and that, you know, the
And then.
It wasn't a station war officer.
It was,
take that off before the show.
The standing warrant officer
sees that otherwise
What do you mean, shift?
Just take it off with you.
I'm saving you a lot of paint.
Yeah. It breaks off easily enough.
Took it off, put it in a pocket
Over the years.
The tradition
of the rich, abundant
Where the tradition comes from,
It's a bond of friendship.
It's a bond of religious significance
between a brother and a sister.
A sister ties it on a brother's wrist
to remind him of his duties
towards, his family and community.
So when you see a Hindu guy
or girl now wearing one of these, it is.
It has more than one meaning to it,
It is to remind us
of our obligation.
To mankind.
