JOM THONG (3) à suivre.

Le défilé démarre tôt le matin, tout le monde se réunit auprès du Médium confortablement calé sur son fauteuil de Fakir.

The parade starts early in the morning, everyone gathers with the Medium comfortably wedged on his Fakir chair.

  1. Clearly a colorful, ritualistic event, Jean, but I sure would like to know the meaning/purpose of the spikes on the back of the chair, very close to his back?????

  2. What a colourful series this is, Jean. A real Fakir and I love your last image of the series. The spikes covered by a cloth so that his cloths are not catching with the nails. Priceless. Great series.
    Bonne journée.

    1. Bonjour Pascale,
      L’ambiance et très sympathique et le fait de se faire doucement arroser à partir d’un certain âge porte bonheur et santé, parait-il.
      Bonne journée Pascale.

  3. Interesting to see the Fakir at work in pictures. To actually have been there must have been very exciting

    1. Yes, it’s true, but I’m not here by chance, I benefit from the friendship of a French compatriot who has lived all his professional life in Thailand and who always offers me events like this, to photograph.
