Vakratunda Rakhi – Mangalam Collection – 22K Gold-Plated

Raksha Bandhan is a celebration of the timeless bond between siblings, woven with love, trust, cherished memories, and lifelong promises of care and protection. Inspired by this sacred festival, Upahar presents the Mangalam Collection—a thoughtfully curated range of 22K Gold-Plated Rakhis, inspired by revered Hindu deities, sacred symbols, and timeless mantras that invoke blessings of strength, wisdom, prosperity, and well-being.

Inspired by Lord Ganesha, the Vakratunda Rakhi is a symbol of wisdom, auspicious beginnings, and the removal of obstacles. Handcrafted in 22K Gold-Plated Brass and tied with a traditional red and yellow pure cotton moli, it is more than a Rakhi—it's a meaningful keepsake that celebrates the enduring bond between siblings while invoking Lord Ganesha's blessings for success, happiness, and prosperity.

Spiritual Significance

Vakratunda, meaning "the One with the Curved Trunk," is one of the revered names of Lord Ganesha. The curved trunk symbolizes adaptability, intelligence, and the ability to overcome challenges with wisdom and grace. As the remover of obstacles and the Lord of new beginnings, Ganesha is invoked before every auspicious undertaking to bless it with success and harmony.

Tying the Vakratunda Rakhi is a heartfelt prayer for your brother to be blessed with wisdom in every decision, courage to overcome challenges, prosperity in all his endeavours, and Lord Ganesha's divine guidance throughout life's journey.
