In Patan, every boy in addition to the temple to serve, to seven years old to ten years old, but also a cleansing ceremony. I saw the city school-age children gather in the temple, first they must use the foot with a small stone mill, grinding on behalf of black sesame guilt and worry, and then cut out the home side by side, a spectacular and confusion!
In November fourteen, five degrees Celsius temperature only, the child took off his shirt, wash with cold water wet head, by wearing the gold and silver, as worldly affairs representative female (for Aunt generation) as scissors hand for children barber.
Do not think that is very easy, the original can not be completely cut out, leaving a handful of hair on his head, went to the big monk there will, in a ring, recite the Scriptures to breath and cut off, officially out of this world worry and care. Sometimes a guest performer fencing to forget, a knife handle hair all cut off, make the parents of finger-pointing, take advantage of the excitement of the aunt aunt, documentary passengers, curious sister with the temple, I sentence you one, very lively.
Later, the child must stay at home for three days eat simple meals, stay up to fourth days, then exchanges the young monk robe, everybody is going to Shangjie begging begging, done a day little monks, the ceremony is ended.
