In Mumbai, the financial capital of India, a slum of more than two square kilometres stands where a million people wake up every day to survive. Dharavi is above all that: fate of survivors. Evicted, untouchable, Muslim, Tamil, Bengali and all the other representatives of diverse and forgotten India who have escaped hunger, poverty or floods in which they lost everything to go in search of a dream.

He was just a teenager when Ram Das left his previous life , against the wishes of his parents, to follow the teachings of his Guru, a long way to the light. Since then, forty years ago, it remains in this place, on the banks of the Goddess Gaṅgā, in the sacred city of Rishikesh. He tells us that since his master died in 2013, his place is here taking care of this place, until a new Guru returns, and the sacred fire, symbol of the divine connection, can burn again in the Dhuni.

Coming from Iran, the Jat people settled in the Banni region almost five hundred years ago. Dedicated to grazing, they lead a semi-nomadic existence, moving after the monsoon, always in search of grass. Just a few sticks covered in plastic will be your home for the next few months.

Since very young, the women of the tribe Dhaneta Jat wear this spectacular nasal piercing, called Nathlit, as a symbol of their marriage commitment. It is so heavy, it requires holding it with a lock of hair across the forehead, attached to a silver hanger behind its head. Once placed they feel it as part of their body and do not remove it at any time

Desde muy jovencitas, las mujeres del pueblo Dhaneta Jat lucen este espectacular piercing nasal, llamado Nathlit, como símbolo de su compromiso matrimonial. Es tan pesado, que requiere sujetarlo con un mechón de cabello que cruza la frente, unido a un colgador de plata por detrás de su cabeza. Una vez colocado lo sienten como parte de su cuerpo y no se lo quitan en ningún momento.

Although India had banned the caste system in 1950 and promoted positive discrimination in favour of the lowest, the social reality, particularly in rural areas, is different. The called untouchables or dalits, considered impure, belong to the lowest caste and are those who perform the most painful works. Dalit girls and women also face caste-based sexual violence, often with State impunity.

On our recent trip to India, we had the opportunity to live with several Rabari families, who still maintain their ancestral nomadic way of life. According to their beliefs the Rabari were created to take care of their camels, an occupation they consider almost sacred. In the photo, one of our hosts returns to the camp with the last lights of the afternoon.

From very young the Meghwal women start embroidering to prepare their trousseau. The enormous amount of clothing they must make before marriage, leads them to dedicate almost exclusively to this work since they are promised to their future husband, barely ten years old.
