The theatrical perfomances are not regarded as mere entertainment by the monks or their audience. Playing the lives of the gods and acting the deeds of the Lord are among the means and ways of devotion.

Stunning photograph. Spiritually uplifting and culturally significant. I can feel the religous and cultural flavor of India just by seeing this wonderfully artful image.
