Raksha Bandhan: The Thread of love

Raksha Bandhan is a beautiful festival that takes place around August time each year. It’s a chance to re-affirm our promise to ourselves and to the Divine to bring positive change in ourselves. In return, we can experience God’s power and protection to help protect us from the influence of negativity – outer and inner – and aligned with our own purity and goodness. People of all faiths and backgrounds are very welcome to take part or just observe and enjoy the powerful atmosphere of meditation.
