Married and single Nepalese Hindu women gathered in temples on each Monday of the Sawan month, spanning from 22 July to 12 August, to pray for a long and prosperous life of their husbands or for a chance to find a good one. The fasting is undertaken every Monday exclusively by women worshipping Lord Shiva. (Photo by Narendra Shrestha/EPA/EFE)
