World's Worst Public Toilet (Meditation)

Ananda (Dharma Buddhist Meditation), Dhr. Seven, Ashley Wells (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly
Yum, potpourri! My loo is beautiful and healthy with a Buddha to remind me to be mindful.

What does it mean to be "mindful" (sati)? It is being aware and accepting what is.

"Let that sh*t go" (The Buddha)
A British writer traveled the planet to find the world’s worst public toilet. He says it’s in the country of [formerly Buddhist] Tajikistan, once a part of the Czar's Empire, The Stans, the old USSR or Soviet Union.

It looks like an outhouse that’s about to fall down. It’s built on a pile of rocks with filthy rats and venomous snakes all around.

There are two walls are just a sheet for a third wall, which people sometimes use as toilet paper with which to wipe (929Rock).

By the way, most of the world uses and has always used water for wiping, even before the fancy French bidet craze caught on.


Women will have to hold it in.
If we had £150,000 to spend, the last thing we would want to do is tour Planet Earth looking for the very worst public toilet. Butt to each his own.

That being said, that's exactly what travel writer and blogger Graham Askey (pronounced \ass-key\ or Phileas Bog) -- also known as the "King of Porcelain" -- did when he trekked terra firma to find the world's worst lavatory.

He believes he has found it -- in faraway Tajikistan of all places. The toilet in question has been dubbed the "perfect hell hole" -- a poorly constructed tent where the walls double as a loo roll (reusable cloth toilet paper rag). Not gonna sugarcoat it, but that sounds disgusting. More

According to Mr. G. Askey, the toilet in the Ayni region of Tajikistan, on the western edge of the Pamirs and not far from the Afghanistan border, is so vile that the locals refuse to use it unless "absolutely desperate."  Askey, a self-confessed "squatter spotter" [and loo investigator], visited hundreds of public toilets in six of the world's seven continents before crowning the Tajikistan, Central Asia, outhouse the worst of them all.

Doesn't seem so bad except for the poop, rats, and snakes
