The Swasthani Brata Katha Festival in Nepal

Nepalese women devotees sit around a bonfire to warm themselves before they take holy deep in Salinadi River during the first day of month long Swasthani Bratakatha festiva in Sankhu, on the outskirts of Katmandu, Monday, January 5, 2015. During this month-long festival, devotees recite Holy Scriptures dedicated to Hindu goddess Swasthani and Lord Shiva.
