Introduction To Bhumba :
Water is essential in both Hindu and Buddhist rites, and it is always present on the altar, either in a pricey pot or in another container. Bhumba is a pot shaped like a flat jar, featuring a pipe to draw out the water from the pot, which is elaborately embellished with valuable stones and metal.
