"Kuru Jogi", the Grass Sage dances at Ramman Festival, Uttarakhand

Summary edit

Description
English: The Kuru Jogi dances with a sack full of thorny weeds, highly relevant to the time of the year when the mountains are replete with a type of grass that sticks to one’s body. After the cleansing of the agricultural fields, this grass or kuru is found all around & people try to avoid contact with it. So in this comical act of Kuru jogi, the Grass Sage goes around the spectators to bring them in contact with this grass & people run all around or simply accept it as a prashad (offering) from the god.This spectacle can be witnessed at the Ramman Festival in Saloor Dungra Village of Uttarakhand.
