Temple ceremonies

The Boomyah have recently celebrated one of their major holidays where they believe that their dead ancestors come back as spirits to dwell among them for 10 days. Here are some photos that we captured. At this ceremony, they are taking the instruments used in their Hindu worship ceremonies from their temple to the ocean to be cleansed.



These women are all carrying offerings.
