There was a big expose' about them a couple of months back, and the author is right... they borrowed a lot from the Masonic groups.

Honey, Sky summarized a Hindu festival that he attended with me as follows:

"They burn butter, pour milk on rocks, and sing songs."

To each his own.

FYI, where's you get the cool comic pic?

*heh* reminds me of times I spent with a wonderful italian ex-catholic practioner of Santeria (sp?) and Tibetan buddhism. Odd stove-cooked herbal baths you had to pour over your head several times and have cigar smoke and rum blown on you and then you just STEEP for a while...

Followed by sculpting little objects out of butter to leave on the altar...

and several other arcane things... It was intense, beautiful, mystical, and, well... very very odd.
