Hope you understand the busy situation. As a ritual worship art, it is impossible to interfere in to the their activities. Shagil Kannur (talk) 07:50, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
We do, but that's not an argument for why this is one of the very best photos on Commons. I voted for it, but is there an important reason why you couldn't add the rest of his ear? Ikan Kekek (talk) 17:17, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at your other photos, this does give the impression of a performance for tourists rather than 'ritual worship'. Your photos would certainly have been considered 'interfering' if that was an issue. Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:18, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
 Comment There can be a lot of overlap between rituals and performances for tourists. For example, lots of tourists watch wayang kulit in Bali, which retells tales from the Ramayana; is preceded by a blessing of all the puppets, performers and audience with incense; and requires harmony to be restored at the end of the night, partly in the form of putting the tree puppets (the name of the symbolic tree slips my mind) back into the middle of the screen. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 19:22, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. I agreed with you. Now please check--Shagil Kannur (talk) 19:24, 17 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
