Widow of Vrindavan

Widow of Vrindivan

Loneliness and the feeling of being unwanted is the most terrible poverty.  Mother Teresa

According to Hindu tradition widows may not remarry. Instead they are to spend their remaining lives alone. Many have been abandoned by their families and find their way to Vrindavan, in northern India. They spend much of their day singing bhajans in exchange for a hot meal and a few rupees.
