Being a Malaysian, I suddenly felt compelled to at least witness one of the largest festival celebrations in the country. The truth is I kind of regretted it, I regretted not having this level of curiosity to witness it for myself earlier. Also, I would have been able to see so much more if I reached earlier to enter into Batu Caves, which I heard there are many things going on in there that is worth my while. I may have needed to sacrifice some sleep and endure the journey to Batu Caves standing for an hour in the KTM but I found it satisfying that I finally saw the event with my own eyes.
The overwhelming crowd
Captivated by its silent angelic might
Offering of prayers
Let there be Light
The Gods above us
Offering hands
Staring devotee
Such bright colors
Stream of People
In Trance
Devotees with their offerings
The symbol of Thaipusam - The Kavadi
Next year, I shall return to experience what goes on inside Batu Caves.
