A large crowd of Hindu devotees assembled at the renowned Pashupatinath temple on the final Monday of Shravan, a sacred month in the Hindu calendar. With devotion in their hearts and vibrant traditional attire, they converged at this sacred site to offer prayers and seek blessings. Here, in a unique tradition, people not only come to pray but also have the special opportunity to touch the sacred cow, considered a symbol of divinity and purity. As the faithful flock to the temple, they immerse themselves in spiritual devotion, offering their reverence to Lord Shiva, and sharing in the tactile connection with the revered cow, a powerful emblem of their religious beliefs. This tradition reinforces the spiritual bond between devotees and the divine in a remarkable and tangible way.
