EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the vibrant and colorful Hindu Vale Festival in Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) around the year 1905. The festival, dedicated to the Hindu deity Jaganath, is depicted here as a grand procession of devotees and onlookers gathered at the coastal region, with the shimmering sea serving as a serene backdrop. At the heart of the scene, a magnificent silver Juggernaut car, adorned with intricate decorations and religious symbols, makes its way through the crowds. The Juggernaut, a chariot believed to be the divine vehicle of the god Jaganath, is pulled by devotees, some of whom are seen here wearing traditional attire and holding parasols or umbrellas for protection against the sun. The festival, which was an integral part of the rich cultural heritage of Ceylon during the British colonial era, is a testament to the deep-rooted religious customs and traditions that continue to thrive in the region even today. The image offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique blend of religion, tradition, and community that defines the Hindu Vale Festival in Ceylon.
