📸 Picture of the day: God's passionate pursuit of wisdom to the sea

Followers of the Hindu religion in the city of Mumbai, India, carry the statue of Ganesha (the god of wisdom and new beginnings with the head of an elephant) amid a shower of colorful papers and celebrations that will be deposited in the waters of the Arabian Sea. This ceremony is part of the ten-day Ganesha Chaturthi festival where, after days of worship and celebration, statues of Ganesha are carried in enthusiastic processions to the sea or rivers and immersed in water to symbolize his return to his heavenly home.
