Weekend Reads: Faith, Festivals & the Soul of Sout

Weekend Reads: Faith, Festivals & the Soul of South Asia

From the Sufi serenity of Ajmer Sharif to the grand, vanishing city of the Kumbh Mela, and the divine procession of Rath Yatra — each story is a reminder of how faith shapes community, art, and belonging.

Did you know the Kumbh Mela is visible from space — a temporary city larger than London that disappears without leaving a trace?

If you could witness one of these living traditions up close, which would it be — Ajmer’s music of devotion, Kumbh’s river of humanity, or Puri’s chariots of the gods?

Rajat Chaudhuri has always preferred taking the train over short flights, and he’ll often choose to walk rather than hop in a car for a short drive. You can sense his roots in climate activism—not as a passing chapter, but as something that’s become quietly and thoughtfully woven into his everyday life.

That’s what makes Rajat, for us, not just an empathetic writer but an unusually attentive one—the kind who notices the details so many of us overlook.

Today, we ask him a question that feels timely: how do his convictions shape his art?

Here’s what Rajat had to say. I’d love to know your thoughts in the comments below.

Some stories don’t just linger—they return, reshaped by time.

From colonial courts and Goan shores to the tender ache of second chances, these books remind us how memory keeps rewriting the past.

Did you know? India and Its Native Princes was first published in the 19th century by Louis Rousselet, a French traveller whose detailed accounts offered Europeans their earliest glimpses of India’s princely states—long before photography became common in travel writing.
