Here is the actual cave, and many people praying. No one is allowed inside the cave except the priests, and no one knows how large it really is, but the mythology is that it goes over 30 km to the Mother Temple. Here again one is struck by how joyfully these people are praying. Crying children, wandering tourists, and squeaking, stinking bats don't seem to bother them in the slightest. They smile as we walk by, chat with the devotee to their right or left, bounce a child to giggles. No solemnity, but an amazing dignity within their joy.
