A priest offers tika to a devotee after tying sacred threads during the Janai Purnima festival at the Pashupatinath Temple in Kathmandu, Nepal, on Aug. 15, 2019. During this festival, Hindus take holy bath and perform annual change of the Janai, a sacred cotton string worn around their chest or tied on the wrist, in the belief that it will protect and purify them.
