Abstract
Roza says she celebrates Zul every year. She goes to the temple and performs a ritual to prolong the lives of her children and close relatives. Before Zul she buys grass stems for birthday candles. For example, last year her son was 27. She stuck 27 +1 or 2 stems on his candle. She also makes an extra candle with 9 grass stems, which, she heard, should be dedicated to the whole family. In the past, it was Roza’s grandmother who collected grass and cut it to the right length.
