EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Philippe Lissac from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are transported to the vibrant and spiritual atmosphere of the Janmashtami festival at Bhaktivedanta Manor ISKCON temple in Great Britain. The image beautifully showcases a Tilak greeting, an integral part of Hinduism, being exchanged between two devotees amidst the festivities. The scene is filled with an aura of faith and devotion as adults immerse themselves in the celebration of Lord Krishna's birth. The woman in focus exudes deep reverence as she carefully applies a red Tilak mark on her forehead, symbolizing her connection with divinity. Her eyes reflect both serenity and joy, capturing the essence of spirituality. The temple itself stands tall in its architectural grandeur, serving as a sanctuary for followers seeking solace and enlightenment. Its presence adds a touch of sacredness to the photograph, emphasizing how religion can bring people together across borders and cultures. This image not only portrays religious customs but also highlights Europe's multicultural fabric where diverse faiths coexist harmoniously. It reminds us that spirituality transcends geographical boundaries and unites individuals through shared beliefs. Philippe Lissac has masterfully frozen this moment in time, allowing viewers to witness firsthand the beauty found within rituals like Tilak greetings during festivals such as Janmashtami. This print serves as a visual testament to humanity's unwavering quest for meaning and connection with something greater than ourselves - our eternal search for spiritual fulfillment.
