Whole communities take part in these festivals, bringing baskets of food and flowers for offerings. While pura means temple, a purl is the residence of the local prince, which may function as a cultural centre.Music, dances, food, flowers, and fruits sacrificed began as part of temple rituals to please the gods and to placate evil spirit.
