Separate communal toilet compounds for men and women afford little privacy other than gloom and low partitions between holes in the floor. The more advanced compounds have a hose by each position, so the trough can be hosed down after use. From what I can see, everyone in China has diarrhea — and no wonder. Our acidophilus tablets have been invaluable in preventing problems.

Its drain is positioned over the trough that runs across the floor.

What puzzles me is this: Who packed in a heavy, claw-footed, enameled iron bathtub, over all of those kilometers of steep, slippery stairs? But as primitive as the setting is, that bath out of a bucket is sheer luxury. Other than astonishment at the appalling state of plumbing and sanitation, I am quite enthralled by the old monasteries, established years ago. Mornings begin with a pre-dawn gong that rouses the monks for morning prayer, a lovely chanting that reaches us in bed through the thin wooden walls. Evenings end similarly, with evening prayer that lasts for hours and lulls us to sleep.

The buildings have a musty, ancient feel, with many dim, narrow passageways that open into courtyards. Floors are uneven, made of stone or wood.

Incense and candles burn continually. Food — beer, crackers — is piled before some of the statues. Xianfeng Monastery is the most primitive and least comfortable: a small cellblock of a room holds two rickety beds. The mattress is a thin quilt stretched over several wooden planks, with large spaces between the planking. Only weariness from having climbed stone stairways for much of the day enables us to sleep, and soundly. The monasteries serve simple food, as do small restaurants at the gates of the monasteries. From one tiny, two-table restaurant, we watch four Chinese Bamboo Partridges, sunning.

The current government, we are told, tolerates the resurgence of Buddhism because it is good for tourism. The people who hunger for this religion have cobbled together a mix of remembered tradition and story, but the stories do not always seem to be connected to the old wisdom. I ask to be sure. But with just a rudimentary knowledge of Buddhism, I recognize the symbol of the Dweller on the Threshold: the monster is our own fear, an obstacle which we must confront in order to enter into a larger life.
