"In Thailand, this festival is called thetsakan kin che เทศกาลกินเจ, the Vegetarian Festival.
[...]
In accordance with the traditions, many religious devotees will perform ritualized mutilation upon themselves and one another [...] while under a trance-like state, including but not limited to: impaling through cheeks, arms, face, legs, back etc., with everything from as small as syringes to as large as is agreed upon between all members; partial skinning (the skin is not removed, just cut and flipped over); slashing of limbs, chest, stomach and especially tongue with swords, axes and knives; bloodletting; removal of tissue (normally limited to cysts) and intentionally wrapping or standing near fire crackers as they are lit.
[...]
The purpose of this practice is a mixture of veneration for their gods and ancestors, to display their devotion to their beliefs and the trance itself."
C'est donc, une fois de plus, des chtarbés religieux qui s'auto-mutilent pour montrer leur dévotion...
(pas mal d'images du truc sont carrément hardcore comparées à ça!)
