India boasts the world's largest Islamic population, one of the world's oldest Jewish communities and is the birthplace of Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism and Jainism. From a humble postal worker performing "puja" for safe deliverance of a parcel to a former salesman who has renounced material life and set off on the path of self-realization, religion suffuses every aspect of life in India. This book explores the presence of the divine in the mundane, through photography and personal stories.
