"Prostrations, Full Moon Day" Photo By Aine McCarthy, Wesleyan University, India Program18 viewsAine's five photos are all snapshots into the incredible life of modern Bodh Gaya, where buses compete with rickshaws on dusty roads and pilgrims come in droves to visit the Mahabodhi Temple. This stupa is home to the Bodhi Tree, beneath which the Prince Siddhartha became forever known as The Awakened One. Pilgrims come humbly to this place bringing an incredible depth of spiritual practice; prayer is truly in the air, as prayer flags flap in the wind with the day’s laundry.
