An eye-opening tradition

TRADITIONALLY, for a lion to “come alive” before it starts dancing, the lion’s eyes has to be dotted in what is considered an auspicious event.

Dotting the lion’s miror shield situated on its forehead is equally important. Evil spirits are said to turn away on seeing their own refelction on the lion’s head.
