  • A young, vulnerable-looking youth stands close to two members of a local Evangelical church who are using a carpet warehouse as a temporary Ministry. Rolls of carpets and rugs are behind these Christians as the two officials practice the 'laying on of hands' to cleanse the soul of their young convert during a religious meeting in Newport, Wales. As the ceremony takes place when this boy is persuaded to accept Jesus into his life, two retail signs proclaim the prices and credit terms of the household items. The laying on of hands is a religious practice found throughout the world in varying forms. In Christian churches, this practice is used as both a symbolic and formal method of invoking the Holy Spirit during baptisms, healing services, blessings, and ordination of priests, ministers, elders, deacons, and other holy church ceremonies.

  • A holy Sadhu man attracts a crowd on the Maidan in central Calcutta, India. Near some ballustrades built by the British during the last years of the Raj, the man is leaning forward on his knees and his head is buried in gravel. Practicing Tapas or Niyamas, is one form of Austerity that holy men like this perform to cleanse themselves of bad thoughts. It is a conservation of energy; an increase of power in the system by sense control; a process of positive-thought, self-imposed  hardships and inner-strength - all to gain a higher being for oneself. They might stand in cold water in winter, stand on or bury their heads in earth. Niyamas also breeds non-violence, truthfullness, non-stealing, moderation, non-possessiveness, purity, contentment, discipline, study and surrender.

  • Gathered beneath the outer walls of the 15th century Church of St John the Baptist, a flock of Anglican pilgrims ready for a procession through the ancient Christian and pagan town of Glastonbury. Banners from their parish churches show illustrations for their Saints such as St Andrew and St Mark while an angel looks down on another. A young choir boy looks down at his feet, a middle-aged Church of England vicar holds his banner and a much younger member of a congregation stands with a polished silver cross. Glastonbury is notable for myths and legends about Joseph of Arimathea, the Holy Grail and King Arthur and in Arthurian literature Glastonbury is identified with the legendary island of Avalon. Medieval monks at the abbey even claimed to have found the graves of Arthur and Guinevere and the place is also said to be the centre of several ley lines.
