“Prayers Beneath the Surface: A Rare Underwater Glimpse of Faith”
Captured years ago using a crude underwater device, this rare image offers a submerged perspective of a devotee lying partially immersed in the Periyar River, praying for their departed souls during the Shivaratri festival in Aluva, Kochi. A moment where faith, water, and devotion intertwine, reflecting the deep spiritual connection between worshippers and the sacred river. #Shivaratri #PeriyarRiver #SpiritualJourney #RarePerspective
