Janai Purnima

In Nepal, Raksha Bandhan is celebrated on shravan purnima. It is also called JanaPurnima (Janai is sacred thread and purnima means full moon). A sacred thread is tied on wrist by senior family members and relatives. Nepalese people enjoy this festival, eating its special food "Kwati", a soup of sprout of seven different grains.
