EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo captured by Navesh Chitrakar, we witness a young Hindu priest engrossed in deep devotion as he reads from a holy book during the Janai Purnima or Sacred Thread Festival in Kathmandu, Nepal. The image showcases an intimate close-up of the priest's hand delicately holding the sacred text, with prayers beautifully inscribed upon its pages. The festival holds great significance for Hindus as they partake in holy baths and change their sacred threads, known as janai, to seek protection and purification. This moment frozen in time reflects the essence of faith and spirituality that permeates through every aspect of this religious celebration. As our eyes are drawn to the intricate details on both the priest's finger pointing towards a particular passage and his focused expression, we can almost feel his connection with divinity. The creative use of composition highlights not only the importance of reading and studying within Hinduism but also emphasizes how religion plays an integral role in shaping people's lives. Navesh Chitrakar masterfully captures this profound scene, allowing us to glimpse into a world where tradition meets devotion. Through his lens, we are reminded of the power that lies within faith and how it unites individuals in their pursuit of spiritual enlightenment.
