Sacred India

More about the book

'Sacred India' explores the presence of the divine in the mundane, through breathtaking photography and the equally intriguing stories of the people involved. The birthplace of both Hinduism and Buddhism, India also boasts the world's largest Islamic population and one of the world's oldest Jewish communities. Tribal religions, Jainism and the esoterica of Zoroastrianism add to the seemingly bewildering array of faiths jostling for space. That India has mostly been able to contain the inevitable frictions is a miracle in itself.
