The trident and the damroo (hand drum) are items that are associated with Lord Shiva, which represents the potent power of good. The symbols are auspicious and wish well for the one wearing the rakhi. The design also has rudraksha and red crystal beads held in place by a bright red cotton thread. The red and black theme of the elements brings uniformity to the divine symbols and ensures that the rakhi will look brilliant on the wrist of your brother.
