EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo, Hindu devotees gather in Surat, Gujarat to celebrate the vibrant and auspicious Navratri festival. The image captures a mesmerizing moment as devotees hold earthen lamps, known as diyas, while performing prayers called Aarti. These flickering flames illuminate the darkness of the night, creating a serene and spiritual atmosphere. Navratri is a nine-night-long festival dedicated to worshipping various forms of Hindu goddesses. It holds immense significance in Indian culture and traditions. During these nights, devotees engage in prayer, fasting, dancing, and singing devotional songs known as bhajans. The devotion displayed by these worshippers is truly awe-inspiring. Their faces radiate with faith and reverence as they connect with their spirituality through this ancient ritual. The glowing diyas symbolize the triumph of light over darkness and good over evil. Photographer Amit Dave has masterfully captured this sacred moment that showcases both religious fervor and cultural richness. Through his lens, we witness not only an act of worship but also a celebration of unity among believers who come together to honor their deities. This photograph serves as a reminder of the power of faith and community during times of celebration. It encapsulates the essence of Navratri – devotion towards divine feminine energy combined with joyous festivities that bring people closer to their roots.
