EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Philippe Lissac, we are transported to the vibrant city of Calcutta during the auspicious Sarasvati puja. The focal point of the image is a magnificent statue of goddess Saraswati, adorned with delicate flowers and surrounded by an atmosphere of devotion and spirituality. As devotees gather around the divine figure, their hands clasped in prayer, one can almost feel the palpable energy emanating from their unwavering faith. The air is filled with a sense of reverence as they seek blessings from the goddess known as the epitome of knowledge, art, and music in Hinduism. The intricate details on the statue reflect not only its artistic beauty but also symbolize divinity itself. With her four arms gracefully holding musical instruments like veena and scriptures representing wisdom, Saraswati stands tall as a beacon of enlightenment for all who worship her. This photograph captures not just a religious ritual but also encapsulates India's rich cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder that spirituality knows no boundaries or limitations; it transcends time and geographical barriers. Through this visual masterpiece, Lissac invites us to immerse ourselves in this momentous occasion where faith intertwines with tradition. It reminds us that amidst our fast-paced lives, there exists a realm where spiritual nourishment takes precedence - reminding us to pause and reconnect with our inner selves.
