Artist
Uma Krishnamoorthy
Medium
Painting - Oil On Canvas
Description
In Haridwar, every evening at dusk, priests perform Ganga "Aarti", that is, offer prayers to the river as the river Ganga is worshipped as Goddess in India. A large number of people gather on both banks of the river. The priests hold large fire bowls in their hands, their chants fill the air and the gongs in the temples start ringing. People float earthen 'Diyas' (lamps) on the river. The atmosphere is not just visually beautiful, it is also a moving and uplifting experience.
