एक मणिपुरी नाई लू कोकपा समारोह में एक छोटी लड़की का सिर मुंडवा रहा है। लू कोकपा या मुंडन संस्कार इस मान्यता के कारण किया जाता है कि शिशु के जन्म के समय जो बाल होते हैं, वे वास्तव में पिछले जन्म के अवांछित गुणों को धारण करते हैं। इसलिए शिशु के शरीर के पहले बालों को अशुद्ध माना जाता है और ये पिछले जन्मों के भविष्य या वर्तमान जीवन पर नकारात्मक प्रभाव डालते हैं। इसलिए, शिशु की आत्मा की शुद्धि और उसके स्वास्थ्य की सुरक्षा के लिए उन्हें मुंडवाना आवश्यक माना जाता है। कुछ लोगों का यह भी मानना है कि मुंडन से शिशु का तापमान कम होता है जिससे वह शांत होता है और उसके शरीर में रक्त संचार भी बढ़ता है।
