Cavadee

with 0 comments
See the amazing rites of Réunion's Indian community, principally made up of Tamil Hindus. These rites include Cavadee, which is an Indian sacrificial procession that essentially involves body piercing and other gruesome but reverential symbolism. This takes place in Saint-André. Other rites include fire-walking.
