About Shri Banke Bihari MandirShri Banke Bihari Mandir at Vrindavan enshrines Banke Bihari, the swayam-prakat form of Krishna who rose from the Nidhivan for the bhakta Haridas, so beloved that his darshan is given in glimpses behind a curtain drawn again and again. Holi Bhai Dooj, the Chaitra Krishna Dwitiya just after the colours of Holi, is the day of the bhai-behen bond: it recalls how Yamuna welcomed her brother Yamraj to her home with a tilak and a meal, and he, moved, blessed that a brother who takes his sister’s tilak on this day is kept from harm and untimely death. On this day a sankalp is offered in your naam-gotra so that a sibling bond that has grown distant is mended, a brother is kept safe and well, the closeness between a brother and sister is restored, and Banke Bihari’s raksha rests over the whole family. This is offered as faith and tradition, warm to any siblings; it is never a guarantee about anyone’s lifespan, and it never replaces the simple, precious effort of reaching out to a brother or sister yourself.
How the ritual is performedThe Holi Bhai Dooj bhai-behen prem sankalp is carried at Shri Banke Bihari Mandir, Vrindavan, in your naam-gotra, on the Bhai Dooj tithi, with roli-akshat, makhan mishri and mor-pankh before Banke Bihari.
