We were making our way to a show by dancers and a priest, which was to involve the handling of naked flames etc. On our way we took a wrong turn and ended up in a works yard with other Mayans. We watched as a Mayan Priest was blessing the workers and performers with some sage, smudging the Indians in Canada call it. Later when they were passing around burning balls with their bare hands, I realised what the ceremony was all about...BELIEF!...Tony. --- End forwarded message --- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
