It was beautiful blue sky and the gurdwara (temple) was glistening in the Sun, at the middle of the holy pool (sarovar). As like any gurdwara, they welcome everyone here without asking about one’s identity.

This Kumari Devi tradition and the associated ceremonies and rituals seemed similar to the Buddhist Lama tradition but with differences. I managed a click when she looked at me.

I have read a bit about Nepal’s tradition of selecting a Kumari (a living Goddess) for their worship and meeting one of such Kumari was a very soulful and unique experience during my trip to Nepal and Tibet. One of several ways to be in touch with divine I guess. I still remember the vibrant red color that was present and I am glad with this shot that has brought some of that vibrancy.
