A Hindu devotee stands entranced as he prepares to walk on a bed of coals during a Hindu ritual known as thimithi in Puchong, 30km south of Kuala Lumpur, August 16, 2009. The fire walking ritual is an act of self-purification celebrating Draupadi Amman, the mother goddess of fire walking in exchange for a wish or blessing granted by Amman.
