What is lukewarm?
Lukewarm is warm just a little bit above cold, somewhere around body heat / temperature. You should feel neither cold or hot touching it. In Nepali lukewarn is called mantato (मन तातो). "Man" is inner-self and "tato" is heat, it is the heat which can be felt only by your inner-self. |
