PULA OR RELIGEOUS MURNING FOR THE DEAD
W observe pula for ten days before pindam on the eleventh
day. During this period, orthodox people do not take cooked food. Instead, they
fill their belly, with puffed rice, grated coconut kernel, tender coconuts etc.
They are not touched by others. When my mother died, we did
not observe such thing. We were staying with my mousie(chitta) at Trichur .
They are enlightened people. We believe that, when the person
breaths his last, everything is over. Pindam, pula etc, are redudndant
