Sati Pratha in Nepal: how common was it among ordinary people?
My grandmother passed away last year at the age of 95, and she never knew of or heard any stories about her grandmothers or relatives practicing sati. Did the normal general population in Nepal actually practice Sati Pratha?
For context, we’re Upadhyaya Brahmins, since people often say it was mainly followed by high-caste Hindu communities.
