Items related to Heaven on Earth: The Universe of Kerala's Guruvayur...
For over a thousand years the hereditary priests of Kerala's Guruvayur Temple have honoured Lord Krishna with an unceasing cycle of rituals. The temple, whose origins lie in an ancient myth is one of India's most important and richest temples, attracting vast numbers of pilgrims. To preserve its sanctity the temple authorities ban outsiders from its sacred precincts and forbid photography. Pepita Seth was not only given unique and unrestricted access but permission to photograph the world behind the temple's walls. Her book, the outcome of six years concentrated work, takes the reader into a remarkable Universe of ancient rituals, devotion and splendour.
