Scene DescriptionSiddhatha who holds his conservative upbringing too close to heart when it comes to women and swears by the example of his sister, counts on the approval of his mother, is repelled by the Lotika whose appartment Adinath taakes him to. Lotika is a nurse by day and exchnages sexual favours with men against money after work. Siddhartha is out of place in her vicinity. Her sexual waywardness, possibly even lighting a cigarette, threatens his constitution. He wants no part of it and leaves. (9/27)
