🌺"Brother! If it is difficult for you to give this boon, then today is the second day of the New Year. On this day, if a brother visits his sister or a sister visits her brother and if a brother meets his sister with affection, then you can promise to free such a brother from the clutches of Yampuri."

Seeing her brother worried, Yamuna said:

🌺Thus, Bhai Dooj is a festival of wishing well for the brother and of the pure affection between brother and sister.

🌻This festival is a symbol of brother-sister love. No sister wants her brother to be poor, insignificant, lead an ordinary life, bereft of knowledge, or be without influence. On this day, the sister is very happy to find her brother at home or if the brother is unable to come for some reason, she goes to his home herself.

💮From the mythological point of view, even today people remember this auspicious incident of sister Yamuna and brother Yam and get blessings and take a resolution to be free from the clutches of Yampuri.

🌸The sister applies tilak to her brother with the auspicious thought that 'may my brother become three-eyed(trinetra).' The world of name and form that is seen through these two eyes attracts the senses, but the world that is seen through the eye of knowledge exposes the reality of this world of name and form and the light of Jagadishwar(God 🔱) becomes visible.The sister applies tilak to her brother and lovingly feeds him and in return the brother gives her clothes, ornaments, dakshina, etc. The sister is relieved that 'I am not alone... my brother is with me.'

What should a divinely philanthropic soul ask for? One who asks for himself is a pleasure-seeker, a luxurious soul, but one who asks for others or asks for God's love is a devotee of God, a charitable soul.If Lord Surya does charity day and night, then what would Surya's daughter Yamuna ask for?Yamuna said: "The brother who takes bath in me should not go to Yampuri." Yamraj became worried that 'this will lead to bankruptcy of Yampuri. No matter how many sins one commits and takes a dip in Yamuna, he will not come to Yampuri! If everyone becomes entitled to heaven, then there will be chaos.'

❇️This festival of Bhai Dooj, which comes on the third day of Diwali, is a festival that reminds the brother of the protection of the sister and the sister wishes well for the brother. On this day, the sister should pray to Yamraj for the long life of her brother and remember the names of these ⚜️eight immortals: Markandeya, Bali, Vyasa, Hanuman, Vibhishan, Kripacharya, Ashwatthama and Parashurama. She should pray to them that 'May my brother live long' and should also pray to Markandeya in this manner:

⚜️Yamraj, Yamuna, Tapi and Shani - these are said to be the children of Lord Surya🌞. Due to some reason, Yamraj stayed away from his sister Yamuna for years. Once Yamraj thought that 'It has been many years since I saw my sister Yamuna'. So he ordered his messengers(dutas):"Go, go and find out where Yamuna is located these days." Yamdoots came to earth while wandering but they could not find Yamuna anywhere. Then Yamraj himself came to Mathura while wandering and reached Yamuna's palace built on Vishram Ghat.

🌳Our mind is a Kalpavriksha. The place from where the mind springs is the true form of Chidhana, Chaitanya, Sachchidananda, the Supreme Soul. The resolutions of our mind will come true if not today then tomorrow. If on seeing somebody's sister, you have an ill feeling in your mind, then on Bhaidooj, you should consider that sister as your own sister and the sister should also develop the feeling that 'all men except my husband are my brothers' and should resolve that my brother should be well. The brother should also resolve for the progress of his sister. In this way, 'Bhaidooj' is a festival which provides an opportunity to increase the feeling of mutual love and progress of brother and sister.
