意思
Applying oil to hair or body.
文化背景
During the festival of Diwali, applying oil is a mandatory ritual called Abhyanga Snan. It is believed to bring good health and prosperity for the coming year. Wrestlers in Maharashtra apply oil to their bodies so that opponents cannot easily grip them, and to protect their skin from the red soil of the 'Akhada'. Ayurveda recommends 'Shiro-Abhyanga' (head oiling) to calm the nervous system and improve sleep. This is a common practice in Marathi households. Traditional Marathi baby massage (Bal-malish) involves vigorous oiling to strengthen the baby's bones and muscles.
