Heres the paragraph:
Small children whose indoctrination is still incomplete have been known to resist attempts to take them to the temple because "that is where you go to die." Despite this fact, sick adults are not only willing but eager to undergo the protracted ritual purification, if they can afford to do so. No matter how ill the supplicant or how grave the emergency, the guardians of many temples will not admit a client if he cannot give a rich gift to the custodian. Even after one has gained and survived the ceremonies, the guardians will not permit the neophyte to leave until he makes still another gift.
QUESTION: What do do you suppose is the large girft reference in this paragraph?

Look at your other question about the Nacirema. The answer is there. And if you're still stuck, the satire refers to bathroom rituals.
