EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness a mesmerizing scene of Balinese Hindu worshipers embarking on a spiritual journey during the Tawur Agung ritual. The image captures their serene and purposeful stride as they walk towards Prambanan temple in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. This sacred procession takes place ahead of Nyepi, also known as Bali's Day of Silence and the Hindu New Year. The atmosphere is filled with an air of devotion and introspection as these devotees prepare for the upcoming quiet holiday. Nyepi holds great significance for most Balinese Hindus who engage in self-reflection by staying home during this time. It serves as an opportunity to cleanse their minds and souls, seeking inner peace amidst the chaos of daily life. Dwi Oblo skillfully captures this momentous occasion through his lens, allowing us to glimpse into the rich tapestry of Balinese culture and spirituality. The vibrant colors worn by the worshipers contrast beautifully against the ancient backdrop of Prambanan temple, creating a visually striking composition that evokes both awe and reverence. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of the power that lies within moments of stillness and contemplation. It serves as a poignant reminder to embrace silence not only externally but internally too – to pause, reflect, and embark on our own personal journeys towards enlightenment.
