Sun, January 13, 2008 - 4:58 PMI did a little internet reading and found numerous references to mortification of the flesh, including piercings, but nothing specifcially about Thaipusam suspension. Perhaps you could tell us something about how this event is celebrated in America, and if there are any related activities in the Bay Area? When is the full moon, anyway?
