12 Times a Year, Stay Away!

This is the sign you see when entering the Jain Temple. Most of them I understand and even expect but something seem did strike me as...well, different. Can you figure out what caught my eye? 10 points to whoever gets it right! (Collect 100,000 and get a new car!)

Hey! Jews have a thing about menstruating ladies, too. They have to immerse in a special bath called a mikvah every month to maintain their purity!

I've heard of the menstruating thing before... I think it's a religious and traditional thing to find menstruating dirty

Well I'd say it was the "chewing anything" that caught your eye because you know, how is one supposed to live without chewing some paan?

If it was the ladies and the monthly, you know what Mr. Garrison says, "I don't trust anything that bleeds for 7 days and doesn't die".

And I'd have to agree with him.

But yes, I too, have heard about this rule before. Where and when? Don't recall but not that shocking.

Umm...what is this about visitors being 'ristricted' in the last chambers? That sounds a little worrying.....
