Abstract

Every religion and culture has its ideas about purity, cleanliness, and what constitutes good physical, personal, and mental cleanliness. The current Hindu society of today stands the same knowledge and customs, but they view hygiene from a different angle. Personal hygiene and sanitation are taken as significant aspects linked to Hindu society. Purity, faith, ritual, and cleanliness in Hindu society are based on the Hindu scriptures related to sanitation and hygiene patterns and the main objective of cleanliness and regular practice in the current society. The study is based on Hindu men and women above 35 years old. The study considers sanitation and hygiene in numerous aspects, including religion, social prestige, self-satisfaction, health, etc. The study includes toilet use, personal hygiene, safe drinking water, and household hygiene as variables. While sanitation and hygiene are prioritized in Hinduism, the modern Hindu community is evolving to recognize not only religious but also physical, social, and psychological well-being. The respondents had high knowledge, favorable attitudes, and good behavior about sanitation and hygiene. Hindu society has internalized and practiced sanitation and hygienic behavior from both religious and health perspectives. The Hindu community also agrees with the new approach to the relationship between Hindu rituals and hygiene and sanitation.
拉利特普尔Chunikhel印度教社会的卫生知识、态度和实践
每一种宗教和文化都有自己关于纯洁、清洁以及身体、个人和精神清洁的概念。今天的印度社会保持着同样的知识和习俗,但他们从不同的角度看待卫生。个人卫生和环境卫生被视为与印度社会联系在一起的重要方面。印度社会的纯洁、信仰、仪式和清洁是基于与卫生和卫生模式有关的印度教经文,以及当前社会清洁和常规实践的主要目标。这项研究是基于35岁以上的印度男性和女性。这项研究从多个方面考虑了环境卫生和个人卫生,包括宗教、社会声望、自我满足、健康等。该研究将厕所使用、个人卫生、安全饮用水和家庭卫生作为变量。虽然环境卫生和个人卫生在印度教中是优先考虑的,但现代印度教社区正在发展,不仅要认识到宗教,还要认识到身体、社会和心理健康。被调查者对环境卫生和个人卫生有较高的认知、良好的态度和良好的行为。从宗教和健康的角度来看,印度社会已经内化和实践了卫生和卫生行为。印度教社区也同意这种处理印度教仪式与卫生和环境卫生之间关系的新方法。
