Every Monday is the welcome ceremony for volunteers. A local shaman comes to bless the volunteers. Children from the local village play traditional Thai instruments in the background.
Thai people believe that we have 36 souls. Sometimes, when we feel sad for no reason, it may be because one of our souls has gotten lost or missing. This ritual is to call that soul back to us. Each volunteer or overnight visitor can have a string bracelet tied onto their wrist. You are supposed to wear it for at least 3 days.
