Description: Rakher Upobash, a revered Hindu festival, attracts thousands to Shri Shri Lokenath Brahmachari Ashram temple each November around the new moon. In the quiet of the night, devotees gather, their surroundings lit by candles called "Prodip." Absorbed in prayer and the scent of incense, they seek blessings for loved ones' health. The ritual includes fasting, symbolizing "Rakh," and embodies the spiritual essence of the night.
