These pictures were taken during the last Thaipusam, a Hindu festival celebrated by the Tamil community on the full moon in Tamil month. Devotees perform Kavadi Attam, a debt bondage dance during the ceremonial worship of Murugan, the Tamil God of War. The Kavadi range from the simplest decorated canopy supported by a wooden rod carried on the shoulders to some involve spear through face and hooks stuck into the back and pulled by another person behind, it is believe that the greater the pain the more merit from god.
