Not clean.
文化背景
Cleanliness is considered next to godliness. The phrase 'Safa-Sugghar' is used to describe a person who is disciplined and clean. During Laxmi Puja, houses must be free of 'phohar' to welcome the Goddess of Wealth. This is the biggest annual cleaning event in Nepal. Due to waste management issues, 'phohar' is a common political talking point. Citizens often protest by leaving 'phohar' on the streets. Traditional Newari houses have a specific area for 'phohar' near the entrance or in a courtyard, reflecting ancient urban planning for waste.
