A birthday is the anniversary of the birth of a person, or figuratively of an institution. In Nepal and India, on a child’s first birthday, their head is shaved while being held by a special fire. Removal of the hair is believed to cleanse the child of any evil in past lives, and symbolizes a renewal of the soul. Hindu male children of some castes, like Brahmins, have the 12th or 13th birthday replaced with a grand “thread ceremony”.
