Devoted

Udaipur is the first real town we have explored on this trip. Every day is inspired by encounters with busy Hindus – devotion takes many forms.



This icon - like every other back alley spiritual representation – has its own unique blend of colour, decor and askance heads.



The puja machine is a new one on me – we caught this one in action a few nites back and went back to put in a quarter during daylight hours but all locked up.



Woman on the steps of the very steep Jidash temple express their thanks for our coins.
