1. the atmosphere of ‘febrile confusion’ outside the temple of Pashupatinath (for example some people trying to get the priest’s attention are elbowed aside).
2. the things he sees.
3. the sounds he hears.
Answer-1. The author has drawn powerful images and pictures of the
atmosphere of ‘febrile confusion’ outside the temple of Pashupatinath. These are- a group of saffron-clad Westerners striving hard to enter the main gate of the temple as only Hindu devotees were allowed to enter, a fight between two monkeys who were jumping and screaming around the temple.
- The author observes a Napalese princess for whom everyone makes way and bows to her. He sees the market selling various items like bags, Tibetan prints, silver ornaments, etc. He looks at flute sellers with a pole protruding 50-60 flutes, hawkers, shops selling cosmetics, etc.
- The author hears filmy songs played in the radios, car horns, bicycle bells, stray and vendors shout out their goods.
