Hook Line and Drag

Posted by Shiva (Kajang, Malaysia) on 6 February 2007 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

Yep. thats why they are supposed to do. Hooks on the back to pull against the resistance on the other side. Looks pretty painful, but believe me, the kavadi bearer differs to think so. Hindus kinda torture themselves asking for the blessing, forgiveness and spiritual guidance of Lord Muruga which resulting from a special event or incidents in their lives. Good or Bad, they do such painful service to redeem themselves "with Hope" that the allmighty Lord will listen to their sacrifices.

Hi guys!, After contemplating for so long, I have finally decided to put out my images for sale in my own photo sales site. Please visit http://www.e-ttl.com to view the site and if you see anything you like, let me know. This is a " Truly Malaysian" site that sells images from Malaysia.

So, I officially pronounce my site open for sales!! Thousands of thanks to aminus3 members and web owners to be a good friend and a true compatriot in photography to all budding photographers to be able to display their works in a blog format for free. I truly salute the aminus3 team for being very kind and humane to all of us. I wish you all the greatest of success.

Thank you.
