One Hand Speaks

There are times indeed when traveling to remote Buddhist locations in small villages that Western conveniences fail to exist. Or at least in the way we want them to. These are the simple things like coffee, a soft bed, heat, and a hot shower. This year I traveled to the small village of Halesi, Nepal to visit the caves of Maratika. I went five days with no shower. Well, I was able to take a shower. Or at least get close to something I can call a "shower." This was a shower in a bag. Pilgrimage should not be easy. Not having a shower was only one part of this 5 day trip. It was certainly an experience worth podcasting. Thanks for listening! I invite you to share this podcast, offer a comment or leave some feedback. Show Notes: Halesi, Nepal and the Maratika Caves of Padmasambhava. No hot water and in some cases no running water for 5 days. Makeup wipes as my only way to clean my body.  Resources: Swayambhunath Stupa – A bit of info about the famous "Monkey Temple" in Kathmandu, Nepal. Visit Nepa
