EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photo captured by Navesh Chitrakar, we see an offering floating on the sacred Bagmati River during Kuse Aunse (Fathers Day) at Gokarna Temple in Kathmandu, Nepal. Though the devotee who made this heartfelt tribute is not pictured, their love and reverence for their deceased father are palpable. The annual occasion of Kuse Aunse holds immense significance for Hindus across Nepal who have lost their fathers. It is a day dedicated to honoring and remembering these beloved paternal figures. As part of the rituals, devotees visit the temple to seek blessings, take holy dips in the river's purifying waters, and present offerings like the one depicted here. The simplicity yet profoundness of this scene evokes emotions of grief mixed with devotion. The offering gently floats along with the current, symbolizing both letting go and connecting with departed loved ones spiritually. It serves as a tangible representation of love that transcends physical boundaries. Navesh Chitrakar skillfully captures this tender moment that speaks volumes about familial bonds and cultural traditions. Through his lens, he invites us to contemplate our own relationships with our fathers or father figures while appreciating the rich tapestry of customs that exist around the world. This photograph stands as a testament to how rituals can provide solace amidst loss and remind us of enduring connections even when physically separated from those we hold dear.
