‘Holy Bath’ ceremony in India
Students pour water on each other as they take a holy bath on the occasion of Magh Purnima in the western Indian city of Ahmedabad January 16, 2014. The ceremony was organised to resemble the annual month-long religious festival held during the Hindu month of Magh, when thousands of Hindu devotees take a holy dip in the waters of the Sangam, the confluence of the rivers Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati, in the northern Indian city of Allahabad. Magh Purnima is the full moon day in the Hindu month of Magh. REUTERS/Amit Dave

Indian Hindu students from the Swaminarayan Gurukul participate in the 'Magh Snan' or 'Holy Bath' in Ahmedabad on January 16, 2014. Students of Swaminarayan Gurukul, although they have hot water facilities to bathe, take a cold bath daily for a month in order to make the body immune to the atmosphere and ultimately for good health.
