On razor, many heads

On razor, many heads

June 24, 2007

Nepal, Khumbu

A little hot water and soap. Just before festival time and on the full moon, monks prepare for the puja celebration. Part of the ritual is a clean head and one razor gets through the lot. That's about 30 heads in luke warm water. If they did it alphabetically, Walker would be one of the last to get the blunt razor.
