The Sadhus of Nepal are its wandering Holy men
Sadhus in Hinduism are wandering holy men or monks revered for being good. Many Sadhus are also Yogis who are practitioners of meditation.
They have have chosen a life away from or at least on the edges of normal society to focus on their own spiritual practice.
Talking with a Sadhu is said to either be wildly confusing or deeply insightful. Either way being able to speak Hindi is a huge advantage in deciphering what they are saying. However a few Sadhus do understand more English than you might at first have guessed.
