| One morning, after breakfast was over, Megh (my host father) calls me upstairs and back into the kitchen. He wanted me to bring my camera. It was his birthday and he allowed me to take photos of the ceremony. The Dahal family is Hindu and what you see in these photos is a local man of the cloth from one of the temples and a family friend of the Dahal's. On your natal day this person from the temple comes to your house and winds and weaves you through several scriptures which are repeated. Each of the dishes and platters you see in front of Megh represent a significant step in the mortal and after life. |
