s around herself, is sometimes folded and used as a hat for protection against the heat of the sun.

See the 3 figures to the right, at the base of a temple?
They are meditating to the sun!
I took close-up photos of each of them, and later asked them if it hurt their eyes to stare at the sun all day. I was told that it did not! They sit there from sunrise, to sunset, meditating, and only change positions as the sun changes position. Otherwise, they just sit there and meditate. They meditate every single day except when cloudy. Amazing!
