Although more than 80 percent of Indians are Hindu, which can be called the stronghold of Hinduism, in fact it is not only India that believes in Hinduism (otherwise there would be no "World Hindu Congress"), and India's neighbor Nepal is also a large Hindu country.

Although Nepal can also be called the birthplace of Buddhism, their state religion is Hinduism, which is written in the constitution of the country. Of course, in addition to Hinduism, there are also Tibetan Buddhism, Christianity, and MSL, but the status of Hinduism is unshakable, and the caste system and many customs here are highly consistent with or even surpassed those of India.

As mentioned earlier, Hinduism is divided into many factions, and Nepal is the stronghold of the Sexual Power sect, so Shakru was invited by Alok to exercise the rights of the elders of the outer sect and come to Nepal for exchanges, which is actually tourism. Due to the accurate prediction of Shaklu during the last Diwali, the prestige of the sexual power faction has soared, so the Grand Master intends to fulfill his previous promise and send Shaklu to the United States to enjoy it, but there is a temporary problem there, so he changes the itinerary to a visit to Nepal.

It just so happened that there was nothing important about Shakru during this time, the movie was being prepared, the saint who was assigned to him was being trained, and the company was on the right track, it was a good opportunity to go out and have fun, coupled with curiosity about Nepal, so Shakru flew to Nepal with Kabaeva, Mustafina and Alok.

As soon as he stepped out of the airport in Kathmandu (the capital of Nepal), before he could reach the hotel where he was staying, Shakru was stunned by a scene on the side of the street, only to see a dozen or so women, old and young, tall and short, fat and thin, black and white, actually taking a bath bath in the street, yes, although they were all wrapped in a cloth or clothes the size of a bath towel. But they were indeed taking a bath, and even Shakru could see the soap foam on their bodies.

Not only was Shakru stunned, but Kabaeva and Mustafina also shouted in surprise, and Alok followed their line of sight, and then chuckled and explained, "Hehe, it's quite surprising to see this kind of thing for the first time. But this is something that happens all the time in Nepal, and you get used to it over time. ”

Despite Allock's explanation, Shakru still found it difficult to understand: "Why don't they take a bath at home or in the bathhouse, why do they start bathing in the open air on the street, it doesn't look good." ”

Allock continued: "The reason for not going to a bathhouse is simple, because there is not a single bathhouse in the whole of Kathmandu, and some high-end hotels do have it, but the fees are too expensive for ordinary people to afford. So most of them wash clothes and bathe in pools or fountains on the side of the street. (Nepal is one of the poorest countries in the world according to the United Nations, and if having a separate toilet in India is a symbol of wealth, then a separate bathroom in Nepal is the same.) ）

In fact, it is not only women who bathe in the open air, but also men, but men and women use different faucets and keep a certain distance from each other. And if you look closely, you will see that this bathing is not completely naked. Men generally wear shorts. Upper body and legs. The woman has her hair pulled up high and a piece of cloth wrapped around the ****. Wear slippers. The men came to the pool with toiletries, put soap on their heads and bodies, and then put their heads under the faucets and rushed violently, usually ending the "fight" in ten minutes. Women, on the other hand, appear to be cautious, and it is not easy to wash every part of the body in full view of the public. They tend to work in groups of three or five to help each other. Take care of yourself carefully and hard. The whole process was done under the cover of that cloth and probably took more than an hour. It's not as enjoyable as in a bath, but it can achieve the same effect.

There is a natural reason why Nepalese people can bathe in the open air all year round. The Kathmandu Valley region has a temperate climate that is not cold in winter or hot in summer. The temperature is maintained at 2-28 degrees Celsius all year round. Therefore, even in winter, as long as the sun is abundant, the daytime temperature can reach minus ten degrees Celsius, and the locals can still bathe in the open air without feeling cold. According to reports, since the water in the pool comes from the ground and is not affected by the temperature of the ground, it gives the impression that it is cool in summer and warm in winter. In addition, there is a lot of groundwater that contains sulfur hot spring water, and bathing with them is good for the body.

In fact, Nepalese bathing in open-air pools also have religious implications. They believed that the pools and fountains in the Kathmandu Valley region were connected to their sacred lake, Gossain Kant Lake, where Lord Shiva, one of the main gods of Hinduism, lived. Bathing in these pools is equivalent to bathing and worshipping in the holy lake, which can ward off disasters and sins. ”

At this time, Kabaeva suddenly pointed to a faucet and said: "Boss, look, that faucet is so beautiful." ”

Alok nodded and said: "That's right, these faucets can almost be called works of art, in fact, in the Kathmandu valley area, there are hundreds of pools of all sizes, most of which are made of red bricks, generally located in temples or places with natural water sources next to the street, 3-5 meters below the ground, surrounded by half-meter-high walls, and some are also decorated with lions, snakes and other stone animals. Descending the red brick steps, you can see the granite floor of the pool, which has drainage channels at the base of the four walls, and several beautifully carved faucets lining the walls of the pool. Due to the low terrain of the pool, the spring water from the high places gushes out of the faucets and splashes the water. This ancient faucet cannot be turned off, and the water flows all year round, and it drains from the sewer very quickly after entering the pool. Therefore, the water in the pool is always kept clean and clean. However, in the countryside, it is not so good, and people there usually go to the river to take a bath, and occasionally you can see a person with a running water pipe. ”

In the next journey, as Alok said, almost all men and women bathing in the street can be seen in the pool and fountain, and it is not strange to see more, and people wash so naturally, without a trace of lewdness, if you think too much, it is your own problem, but this is really a pleasure for men, the only regret is that there are a little less beautiful women (to be continued.) )
