Gone Monkey in Nepal

If you have gone "Monkey in Nepal" you might find your self lost in translation meandering up the grand long steps to the famous Monkey Temple at Swayanabath in Kathmandu. Just when you think monkeys are cute and cuddly there bombards you hundreds of these sneaky creatures ready to grab anything in your hands. I say creatures because they seem to hold some surreal sense of belonging to this Temple. No where else in Kathmandu can you go and feel the ownership of the monkey more than here. There are also the ominous mysterious ever seeing eyes on all four sides of the stupa that remind you “we are watching you”. The nose is the number one, signifying the predominance of Buddha. This sacred building that has been around for hundreds of years is dear to both the Hindu and the Buddhist. There is of coarse the huge tourist entry cost the helps you feel important even though begging and groveling and swearing that you have come there to worship it will help none to lower the price. Dish out, then pray hard. The Monkey Temple of Kathmandu a must see for religiously inclined…or monkey inclined. Enjoy more interpretation here. I hope that these original works will inspire and help you on your road to freedom. You may want to find out more about photoblogring | random.
