“Test of Courage and Faith”

Embers underfoot

Burning your bare feet on coals

Courage by fire

Firewalking is the act of walking barefoot over a bed of hot embers or stones. It has been practiced by many people and cultures in many parts of the world, with the earliest known reference dating from Iron Age India c. 1200 BCE. It is often used as a rite of passage, as a test of strength and courage, and in religion as a test of faith (Taken from Wikipedia)
