Bénévoles sikhes

            
Amritsar (Inde) - L’une des particularités du sikhisme est que toute personne présente dans l’enceinte du temple d’Or, qui en fait la demande, est nourrie gratuitement et reçoit une paillasse pour dormir. De nombreux pèlerins peu fortunés, quelle que soit leur religion, bénéficient de cette solidarité. Le repas est constitué d’un bol de riz. Les femmes sur la photo, toute bénévoles, sont chargées de nettoyer les bols qui ont servi aux repas. Afin de ne pas gâcher l’eau, la vaisselle en inox est nettoyée avec de la cendre pour ses propriétés abrasives.

Amritsar (India) - One of the particularities of Sikhism is that anyone present within the grounds of the Golden Temple, who requests it, is fed free of charge and given a pallet to sleep on. Many poor pilgrims, regardless of their religion, benefit from this solidarity. The meal consists of a bowl of rice. The women in the photo, all volunteers, are responsible for cleaning the bowls that have been used for meals. In order not to waste water, the stainless steel dishes are cleaned with ash because of its abrasive properties.
