Hotel Dynasty Haridwar

... tours I say goodbye to him and Bharat and start the journey to Haridwar. 6 hours of bumpy roads, incessant horning, pollution, a bad headache and a brief dinner stop we arrive at the Radiant hotel, my bed for the night. I've just seen my first glimpse of the Ganga river (Ganges) and i'm looking forward to the Char Dham Yatra starting tomorrow.

... heat of the day (between 12 PM and 4 PM) to sleep and rest up (also escape the insane heat). I was feeling quite sleepy after the meal and decided to listen to my body and just have a rest. After resting I went to the internet cafe to look up a train ticket to Chandigarh (closest train station to Shimla). I managed to book an expensive ticket (RS$774) to Chandigarh for the following morning (8:40 AM). First class was the only berth available for that day and there ...

10 days. 10 hours of meditation a day. no talking. two small meals a day (and tea in the evening). no physical contact (or smiling). only me, my body and my mind... words cannot explain or describe....only experience can fully describe.... where to even start....the crowded bus ride back to town after breaking the silence was surreal. the bus left an hour late (which is pretty good for india) and was packed with myself and one ...

I think of those news reports where you see footage from a helicopter of floods somewhere and there are people holding onto bits of tree and house waiting to be rescued. We regroup after a bit and get our heads together and on hearing that the final sets of rapids are like the first set, feel elated, like I have ...

... yet mob mentality being what it is I felt this could turn very ugly in a hurry. You have no idea how feverishly I was praying to Ganesh, Hinduism's elephant god and the one to pray to for the removal of obstacles! Now I can't say whether it was the fear in my eyes, Rakesh's negotiating, Ganesh's good grace or a combination of all three but soon after we were told that our vehicle would be the only one allowed to pass at this time. We left behind a protest still in ...

... tourists where he basically did a question and answer session. Tanya and I excused ourselves and Swamiji instructed Bagwati to give us his personal telephone number. The ride back to Ananda was long...but a nice dinner at the restaurant awaited us as did a farewell to Bob and his wife Bobby who were leaving the next morning. Saturday is our last full day at Ananda and we've got a lot planned. The morning remains the same...sunrise, hot tea, morning ...

As the train pulled up and I hopped off with my pack I decided that I would step down the comfort level for the next train ride at that experience was obviously more comfortable and expensive than necessary. Haridwar is considered a holy city; the location where the Ganges River emerges from the Himalayas and where the god Vishnu is said to have left a ...

We had some trouble finding the studio we were looking for, but enjoyed the sunset from a secluded spot under the lower bridge to Swarg Ashram. It was a relief to be able to sit there unbothered, without attracting a crowd. We had some spectators from the bridge yell down to us, but other than that we sat in peace and watched pieces of trash float down the holy river. There seems to be a ...
