October 28, Kathmandu - Amazing things are happening in the world. Traditions vary from place to place. Not everyone knows the traditions of Baitir. 

There is talk of such mutuality in Indonesia, which you will be surprised to hear. We are saddened by the death of anyone. We mourn. There are many ways to mourn or remember the dead. In Indonesia, it is customary for a woman's finger to be cut off when a member of the household dies.

There is such a painful practice in the charitable community in Indonesia. In the community on the island of Papua New Guinea, if the head of the household dies, all the women in the family have their fingers cut off. People in the community are said to believe that if a woman's finger is cut off in the death of someone, the dead soul will find peace. In that community, this is the way to pay tribute to the deceased.
