Yet another festival of oracles, this is held
in Stok, the present seat of royal residence. The two Stok oracles - unlike
those at Matho are laymen, spiritually cleansed and prepared to receive the
spirit of the deities.
As in the case of Matho, people repose abiding faith in the predictions made by
Stok oracles. |
