"The announcement that the once famous festival of Juggernaut has so declined in popularity as to render it necessary for the priests to hire coolies to drag the car,is a measure to the extent to which the destructive solvent of western thought is being applied to eastern creeds"
"The car of the great god of Pooree was one of the most sacred of Brahmanic 'properties,' and the Rath Jattra a festival which, in importance, yielded to that of no other deity in the Hindoo Pantheon"
So I'm intending to do a post/pick a day of art I've bought or commissioned from an artist hopefully along with @chiefy2shoes & @seddonism
Day 1 is #hellboy by the great @duncanfegredo This started a theme of characters eating ice cream, I've not got too many in this theme though
