Swallowing Sperm...
The Sambia believe that men and women are born with a TINGU. The tingu is the body part that allows procreation. A woman tingu ready to play when the first menstruation occurs. In contrast, men are born with their dry tingu and the only way to fill it with the "male milk" which is nothing but the semen of other sexually mature men. They believe that drinking male scent of other men will make the boys are strong and virile. That's why in the privacy of the forest, a young will perform oral sex to young, unmarried usually between 13 and 21 years. Participants are advised to "drink the male essence" in the widest possible to obtain more strength.
Around age 13, a young initiates puberty and begins a new stage with her too. The ritual of nasal bleeding and some repeated blows to purify the young man from that time, is considered mature and can provide "male milk" young children going starting their way to manhood.
In the Sambia culture, with semen, the spirits of the ancestors transmitted, life is created, the body develops and strengthens. The age of individuals is producing a social hierarchy in which women are relegated to a second term because wearing the semen of men, and that children should eat to produce sperm. Mature women naturally because their bodies contain a body of menstrual blood accelerates development.

Thaipusam: A Hindu festival in Malaysia


The piercings, facts on the tongue and in the mouth, is to show that the pilgrim has temporarily given up the ability to speak to concentrate on their god and show how they have left their fate in their hands to protect you from feeling any pain or bleeding. Also to remind of transience or temporality of the physical body in contrast to the permanent spiritual life of truth. Your goal is to escape from this cycle to reach the spiritual universe.
The pilgrimage ends once they reach the Batu Cave (on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur) and do their last dance with the energies that make them fit after hard day. Now they are ready to return to their daily lives and try to consolidate the lessons learned during the ceremony.

Mourning Ritual Shiites Muslims
In the month of Muharram Muslim Shiites remember with mourning the death of one of its most important leaders.
Until here everything is normal, what is really strange is when all participants begin to beat his chest with his hands and then cut with knives and other sharp objects.
The Ashura festival is celebrated throughout the Muslim community, but is a central Shiite religious commemoration.

The Shiites also remember the martyrdom of Hussein, grandson of Prophet Mohammed, occurred in 680 in the city of Karbala, which is in the current Iraqi territory.
To honor him, thousands of men and women dressed in black march through the streets beating their chests and chanting. They also perform rituals of mourning and passionate recreations of martyrdom: there are those who emulate the function of Hussein flagellation with chains or cutting his forehead until blood runs them through the body.

In Islamic antiquity, the Shia were a political faction that supported Ali, son of Muhammad and the fourth caliph (temporal and spiritual leader) of the Muslim community.
Ali was killed in 661 and his main opponent, Muawiya, became caliph. It was this murder that ended up causing the Great Schism that divided Muslims Shiites and Sunnis.
Muawiya was succeeded by his son Yazid, but Ali's son, Hussein, refused to accept its legitimacy, sparking a confrontation between them.
Hussein and his followers were massacred in battle near Karbala in the year 680. The deaths of Ali and Hussein gave rise to the Shia cult of martyrdom. Today, the Shiites are about 15% of the Muslim population in the world.

Fifteen birthday!!!
The celebration marks the transition from girl to woman's quinceañera. It serves as a way to recognize the girl in question has reached maturity. The celebration however varies greatly across countries. However, the Quinceañera not mean that the girl in question is now an adult because this can vary according to the laws of each country.
In Mexico, for this occasion, the quinceañera is made up and headed for the event, leaving the conventional makeup and hair, and wearing a dress with the colors you chose the quinceañera.

Other rituals, such as the latest toy, based on the Mayan tradition that this possession would be the last object for use by children would use are also performed, since by then her marriage would be next; and also of the shoe, where the father of the teenager changes his shoe floor by one high heels, which also symbolizes the passage to adulthood.

Whereas the Tibetans believe in reincarnation, the body of the deceased is considered by them as an empty container without any spiritual value.

When someone dies, for three days lamas monks pray their songs with passages from 'The Book of the Dead ", helping the soul of the deceased to cross the 49 levels of" bard "intermediate state that precedes the reincarnation wheel life. Once completed this, the family gather somewhere in the remote mountains. The celebrant of the ritual, with a very sharp knife, cut the flesh and muscles of the deceased before letting the vultures swoop on him, so that your work more quickly and easily. In a few minutes, all soft tissues and bones disappear targets are scattered over several square meters.

At that time, all traces are again collected and on a rock, with ax and knife again be crushed and mixed with flour called "tsampa" and, again, is delivered to the vultures, it may not they leave absolutely nothing, ending its function and increasing again to the clouds.
The funeral is over and all return to their homes.
