It was pouring that evening but that didn't stop the Thais from celebrating one of the most important festivals on the Hindu calendar, Dussehra.

This is an image of one of the devotees in a trance-like act, dripping candle wax on his body, and eventually extinguishing the flames by putting it in his mouth.
