ThaiPusam Procession



This evening was just a preview with a small procession for this Hindu festival that is starting in the early hours of tomorrow. I might not be able to witness it because of my work schedule so this is why I wanted to at least take a glimpse of this preview. The real thing features devotees who pierce their tongues with metal skewers and attach large frames with hooks and spikes to display their faith and mind over matter.
