Default Experience Thaipusam - The Procession

Hi

Before devotees leave the temple, someone will hurl down a coconut with a lighted candle on top of it onto the ground, splitting the coconut into many pieces. Then the entourage would leave. I'm not sure wat's the reason behind this ritua, but one thing i know for sure - i wun stand near them next time....

Throwing coconut



Breaking the coconut and off we go!

Early morning procession



All these at 6:30 am in the morning! *yawn*
