Image description

A female Hindu devotee with her cheeks and tongue pierced carries a pot of milk and gets ready to walk the 4 km procession from Sri Srinivasa Perumal Temple in central Singapore January 21. In the background is another devotee with metal hooks on his body, and weighed down by oranges and limes. Hindus in Singapore gather to celebrate the annual procession of Thaipusam, where devotees seek forgiveness, fulfil vows or offer thanks to the deity Lord Muragan, who represents virtue, youth and power to Hindus. Devotees go through a strict and careful spiritual preparation before embarking on a ritual journey of self punishment. ST/SC
