  • On the 3rd birthday of an Orthodox Jewish boy he has his first ever hair cut in a ceremony called an Upsherin leaving his peyos (sideburns) to grow. Passing a mirror in his hallway this is the first moment he ever sees himself with short hair and a kippah on his head. A kippah is said to be ‘A blessing on the head’ and is perhaps the most instantly identifiable mark of a Jew. He will now begin to learn the Torah.

  • Usually played in pairs for morning and evenings calls to prayer, preludes, and processions, two western nuns following Tibetan-Buddhism play their Rag-Dung (brass trumpets) in a garden at the Kagyu Samye Ling Monastery and Tibetan Centre in Eskdalemuir, Scotland. One nun looks across to check finger positions of her fellow-player and they are sat cross-legged on the lush grass surrounded with flowers and tall plants. The Rag-Dung is the most spectacular of Tibetan ritual copper horns and some are up to twenty feet long. With a deeply resonant sound it is relatively easy to play. Those following this branch of Buddhism arrive in the Scottish wilderness for isolated Retreat periods, for short-term spiritual relaxation or to follow Tibetan teaching methods for discovering inner-peace, through prayer and meditation.

  • This ruined pig farm in the village of Babine in Northern Albania marks the site of a blood feud which has already cost the lives of several people.<br />
<br />
The barn was deliberately built in 1961 on the site of a Sufi mosque by the head of the local communist party, Murat Balia. To add to the humiliation the mullah, Dervish Luska, a famous theologian had his head shaved in front of the village.<br />
<br />
In 1991 after the fall of communism the coop was dissolved and people started to dismantle the buildings. The family of Amathj Mehmed were dismantling the building when it was too much for the old Coop head, Murat Balia, and a gun battle started leaving Murat, his son and the the father of the family dismantling the barn, Amathj Mehmed. The 2 families are now "in blood" and family hounour will result in future killings.
