Shiva Temple Kathmandu

Real Holy Men at Pashuputinath.  The Saddhu on the left had walked barefoot to upper Mustang valley.

Today our trekking group had a great time at the Shiva temple.  We witnessed bodies being prepared for cremation.  Most of the holy men at the temple are just for show.  We ran into these two who actually walk to holy places barefoot with only a cotton shawl.  We are talking Himalayan trails barefoot and often with snow.  They never know when or where there next meal will come from.  They just walk without fear.
