  • Title: India. Home in Thittacheri town. South India.
  • Description: Of the many customs and rituals that pervades Udappu or Udappuwa, a small village in Sri Lanka, known for its elaborate Hindu temples and unique festivals, perhaps the most important is the 18 day long Draupadi Goddess Great Festival, in the Tamil month of Avani which corresponds to late July to early August. The 18-day period is spent in prayer and fasting, with a priest reciting the Mahabharata (epic) to remind everyone of the story of Draupadi, the five Pandava brothers' common wife, whose chaste and virtuous ways enabled her to recover the kingdom they been deprived of by King Duryodhana. The Draupadi festival comes to a conclusion on the final evening when the entire male population of Udappu walk barefoot over a bed of red hot coals without injury in a ceremony called Tee Mithi in Tamil language. Sri Lanka. July 20, 2005.
