EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early 1910s, showcases the serene and sacred interior of the Temple of the Holy Tooth (Sri Dalada Maligawa) in Kandy, Sri Lanka. Located within the royal palace complex, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is renowned for its significant role in Sri Lankan Buddhism as it houses the relic of the Buddha's tooth. The image reveals the tranquil library of the temple, adorned with intricate wood carvings, vibrant colors, and ornate details that reflect the rich cultural heritage of Sri Lanka. The shelves are lined with ancient texts, scrolls, and manuscripts, many of which are invaluable sources of Buddhist history and philosophy. The Temple of the Holy Tooth, a place of great reverence for Buddhists, is believed to have been established in the 16th century. The relic, which is believed to have been brought to Sri Lanka in the 4th century AD, is enshrined in a golden casket and is taken on a procession during the annual Esala Perahera festival, a grand celebration of the Buddha's tooth relic. The library, much like the rest of the temple complex, is a testament to the enduring history and spiritual significance of Buddhism in Sri Lanka. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the sacred traditions and cultural practices that continue to thrive in this remarkable temple city.
