Landmark Hotel Kolkata (Calcutta)

... really nice beautiful Japanese girls here but I also want to get out of the city and start trekking in Nepal. <br><br>Kolkata is a difficult place to stay because of the amount of poverty you see everywhere. On every street people sleep on the pavement. Also there are alot of beggars and hand pulled rickshaw drivers who call you wherever you go. It's difficult to find a peace on the streets except late at nicht or early in the morning.<br>

... style block building) turned out to be a ventilated sanctuary of calm. The woman's original art decorated the simple but spacious sitting room. Their large, well-maintained garden outside was full of all types of cool plants. Switching gears: mad shopping today! Plus tonight I splurged on some traditional Bengali scroll paintings. The artists had taken the train from their village all the way to the big city to do business with us- and this delicate artwork is tough to transport. They ...

... carrying a massive package on his head that was just skimming over the heads of all the other small indian people on the bridge when all of a sudden a plain clothes police officer approached me and insisted I stop photographing the bridge- it's against the law to photograph any bridge in Calcutta!! That night we took the overnight train to New Jalpaiguri the jumping off point for Darjeeling - and Johnny was on the train with us

... can flow. However primitive it might be, though, this solar powered electricity will be making a huge difference in the lives of poor students who use the Mission's book bank. They will now be able to come to the ashram in the evening to study by the light it provides. I return outside and go to the Temple where Baba is offering a puja to Baba Lokenath. I am always moved when I see Baba at the altar before Baba Lokenath. Every pore of his body, every motion of his ...

... for what is already there. You should go to Kadrinath some day. It is arduous, at 13,000 feet, the atmosphere is thin, but it is so worth the effort. Once years ago, SueMa came to me. She asked, "How can I trust you?" 'Don't trust me,' I told her. 'There is no need to trust me. If you trust me, then a time will come when you don't trust me. Then you may or may not trust me again, and even if you do, it will go on like that, back and forth, again and again. So don't trust me ...

From one ex commie state to another. Life moves in funny ways. Who would believe that I was in Liths one day, and the next in Kolkata !!! And before you say anything telling me I am wrong, check the history books, Kolkata is the longest running democratically elected communist state in the world !!! And now back to the story. Kolkata Yes we are both here, back in India for the fourth time. Actually, it was ...

... each other's beliefs. The people and groups that I have come in contact with want each Hindu to be the best Hindu possible, each Muslim to be the best Muslim possible, each Christian to be the best Christian possible and so on. This resonates very strongly with my own beliefs and my own interfaith work. It pleases me that the Interfaith Initiative in Santa Barbara was observing a Ramadan Dinner at the same time I was here learning about the richness of respect ...

The children were offered the opportunity of a full education or a basic education and trained in a trade/ skill/craft. It was a fantastic place and any money made from the sale of the boys crafts was directly put into a bank account so when the ...

... our guest house, and it was locked up. We tried ringing a bell, but it didnt work. We tried yelling up (its on the fourth floor and we were on the bottom) but no one came. We hung out for a half an hour laughing about the situation. A local man, homeless and maybe drunk, came over and told us over and over, in very broken engligh, that they will open in the morning. I walked out into the street to collect some bricks so I would have a pillow to rest on. It really was comical ...
