to find enlightenment. It is also the place many people come to learn and
be certified in many different types of yoga. The International Yoga
Festival was held here in early March.
We visited the Triveni Ghat, Bharat Mandir and had a walking tour which
included Lakshman Jhuka, Parmarth Niketan, Geeta Bhawan and Ram Jhula.
One of our group worked in law enforcement in the states, so we introduced
ourselves at the local police station and had a lovely get together.
Walking around here was like walking through San Francisco in the 60s (yes,
I am that old). There appeared to be a lot of people looking for peace and
fulfillment in their lives, and too many lost souls.
Then it was time to head to the airport to fly back to Delhi. We had to say
goodbye to our wonderful guide, Suni. He taught us so much and was so kind.
He was one of those people that manages to touch the lives of those he
meets. Lucky us!
It is not just the cows who have it made here. The fish in the holy waters
cannot be fished and like the cows, dogs, cats, pigs and monkeys are fed and
loved by the people here.
