After that, a brother should take blessings from his sister and give her some gifts.

 

Importance of Bhai Dooj

The festival of Bhai Dooj is considered very important. It is said that this festival is a symbol of love and dedication between brothers and sisters. On Bhai Dooj, sisters apply tilak of turmeric and roli on their brother's forehead. There is a belief that if brothers and sisters sit and eat food on the banks of river Yamuna, then there is prosperity in life. By applying Tilak to your brother on this day, he does not have to face the fear of untimely death.

 

Keep these things in mind while doing Tilak

While applying Tilak to sisters on the day of Bhai Dooj, the brother's face should be towards north or north-west and the sister's face should be towards north-east or east.

 

Brothers and sisters should not do these things even by mistake on the day of Bhai Dooj

Do not apply Tilak at any time on the day of Bhai Dooj. Be sure to keep in mind the auspicious time on this day.

 

On this day, both brother and sister should not wear black clothes.

 

Sisters should not eat or drink anything until their brother applies tilak.

 

Brother and sister should not lie to each other on the day of Bhai Dooj.

 

Meat and alcohol should not be consumed on this day. By doing this you may have to face the wrath of Yama.

 

This is how sisters should worship when their brother is away.

 

If brothers and sisters are away on the day of Bhai Dooj, then sisters should take a bath before sunrise.

 

Bring as many coconut shells as your brothers who are away from you.

 

Then put a yellow colored cloth on the post and install those circles there.

 

Place rice on top of the flower and place the circle on it.

 

Later, bathe the sphere with Ganga water and apply tilak with Roli and rice.

 

Offer sweets after the puja. Later, perform aarti with those coconut balls.

 

After Aarti, cover them with yellow colored cloth and leave them till evening.

 

After the puja, pray to Yamraj for your brother's long life and freedom from suffering.

 

Next day, pick up those coconut balls from the place of worship and keep them safe with you.

 

If possible, send the balls to your brother.
