I really like the mood of your stories. In 2007 I was in India. So I feel the resonance while looking on these pictures and the whole eastern way of life you're describing. And I think that many of your feelings are familiar to me.
Despite all the mess that is happening in India (and in places like India), I am very, very love this country. It gives us the opportunity to touch the spiritual reality much easier than our western civilization.
Thank you for filling Steemit with this kind of content, Johanna!
Wow, thanks @omfedor for your kind words and support. India is at the top of my list. I remember being in Kathmandu's airport waiting for our flight to Bangkok. So many people were leaving on a flight to Delhi. What I will never forget was the colors of the saris the women were wearing. I have never seen such a beautiful rainbow of silks in one place. It was an intoxicating vision. I can only imagine what waits once I get there.
