Ritual felling of cremation trees to be held at Kui Buri
Play
People can witness a sacred ritual at the Kui Buri National Park Monday before the felling of four agarwood trees chosen for the royal crematorium.
The ritual will take place between 2.09pm and 2.39pm. It will begin as soon as His Majesty’s Deputy Principal Private Secretary Wud Sumitra pours holy water and anoints the No 15 agarwood tree at the park to the sound of holy music from gongs and other instruments.
Chatchai Pinngern, chief of the Brahmin rituals office, will also take part in the ceremony, reading out loud the worship script and chopping the tree with a golden axe.
