It’s the Hindu Festival of Lights today! Here are a couple of portraits of some nice people I met at the Sri Mariamman Hindu Temple in Chinatown this morning.
A big Deepavali smile from 3 year-old Danistha and her grandparents. I like how their faces were lit by the strong sunlight reflected off the temple’s marble floor.
Happy Diwali!

Church officials have yet to confirm if it is an authentic apparition of Mary. Different apparitions have occurred at various places through history. Whether it is divine, supernatural or otherwise, I am humbled by the unwavering faith, belief and hopes of those gathered there. Credit to the hospital for allowing unhindered access to the public.
Update: On 20th November, the glass pane was removed from SDMC Hospital and moved to the Church of Our Lady Of Lourdes in Klang.
This lady in deep prayers on the floor is from the Church of Our Lady of Fatima in Banting.
