EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by REUTERS, Buddhist monks are seen participating in an alms offering ceremony at Bangkok's bustling shopping district. The image, taken on May 8,2011, showcases the grandeur of the event as a staggering number of 12,600 monks gather to commemorate Vesak Day. This annual celebration holds great significance as it honors the birth, enlightenment, and death of Lord Buddha. The purpose behind organizing such a massive gathering was twofold: to pay homage to Lord Buddha and provide moral support to Buddhist monks and novices from Thailand's troubled southern provinces. These devoted individuals have dedicated their lives to spreading peace and spirituality amidst challenging circumstances. This particular year holds even greater importance as it marks the momentous occasion of the 2600th anniversary of Lord Buddha's enlightenment. The sheer magnitude of this milestone is beautifully depicted through Damir Sagolj's lens. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we witness not only a religious ceremony but also a testament to unity and resilience. It serves as a reminder that faith can transcend boundaries and bring solace even in times of turmoil. Through their unwavering devotion and presence at this sacred event, these Buddhist monks inspire us all with their commitment towards compassion and inner awakening.
