Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... Verwijst in het hindoeïsme en het jainisme naar religieuze asceten of heilige mannen, die het aardse leven verzaken en langs ascetische weg verlichting proberen te bereiken. Sadhoes kunnen samenleven in een klooster of door het land zwerven en zijn afhankelijk van giften. Vaak dragen zij saffraangele lendendoeken en kettingen van heilige kralen, maar dit kan verschillen volgens sektarische groep of persoonlijke smaak. |
