Nearby is Nirmal Hriday, the
hospice for the dying that Mother Teresa created on the grounds of a
temple to the goddess Kali, the Hindu "dark mother" of death and
destruction. When the poor arrive at the hospice, filthy and eaten by
vermin and disease, they are washed, their hair is cut and their wounds
dressed.
