About This Image:

A child is given a shower after a tonsure, as part of an obligatory offering of hair to Lord Subramaniam during the Thaipusam festival. Thaipusam is actually derived from thai which means “10th”, and pusam meaning “when the moon is at its brightest”. It is thus celebrated in the month of Thai (10th month according to the Tamil Almanac) on the day when the moon passes through the star “Pusam”.
