Miasto wdów w Indiach - Redux
A widow is walking through a small street in Vrindavan, India on November 24, 2015. The small town of Vrindavan, Uttar Pradesh, India is home to about 22.000 widows. Widows migrate to the ashrams of this holy city due to discrimination and marginalization as traditional superstitions make them being regarded as inauspicious. They are shunned by society, barred from most religious activities and sometimes even abandoned by their own children. In order to attain salvation from the cycle of rebirth and suffering they live a life devoted to the Hindu god Krishna in Vrindavan. The social stigma of widowhood makes them being dependent on charity, begging and singing devotional songs for money in local Ashrams.
