興都教拜祭儀式 / Hindu Praying Ceremony

八月興都教徒有個拜祭神明的活動,在我居住的地方每年都有舉行拜祭儀式。只因太久沒拍照了,一時手癢,晚上拿了相機到了樓下守候。

拜祭儀式開始後,我在旁觀賞著獻花儀式,不時拿起相機拍下拜祭過程。雖然照片拍得不多,但在這裡上載幾張照片與大家分享。

August is a month where Hindu prayers having a ceremony for praying the Gods, the ceremony take place at my living place every year. I had such a long time did not snap photos already, and the photographing feeling comes back again. When the night has come, I’m already waiting at the ground floor standby with my camera.

After the ceremony had started, I stand at the road side watched the whole ceremony, the prayers pray the God with the flowers. I had taken down few photos for the praying ceremony. Although I had snapped few photos, but I’m here to upload and share some of the photos with you guys. Enjoy!

I see, where is your hometown? if next year the ceremony take place at my living place here again will invite you to come over celebrate together.

I like the ceremony a lot, according to what the prayers had told me, the reason for throwing the coconuts is because they hope all the bad lucks will gone and all the good lucks will come soon.
