Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Dhuno Pora is a purification ritual typical for West Bengal in India. A devotee is wrapped in a wet sari, three oil lamps are placed on her knees and forehead, then finely powdered frankincense is poured over her, creating a brief, powerful flash. The blaze is believed to burn all bad karma.
