Post IYF impressions

Honestly, I don't know what to think of it... I don't relate to the "spirituality" that was promoted here in every sentence. It's my very subjective opinion and maybe I'm not there yet on my spiritual path to listen to it openly and understand. so far this speeches are just a lot of foam to me. When the Indians are sharing their wisdom, knowledge and experience, it sounds authentic. Sometimes i don't follow but there is also different culture base to the logic. When the American blondie talks about Mother Ganga, how she flows through our bodies and our hearts and how we should be as loving and generous as her....I'm sorry but I don't get it...

I have the feeling that the whiter your skin is, the more fluffy and cult  language you are to use. Swami girl, who is the right hand of Swami Chidanandji, was full of "our beloved and most respected" or "our beautiful" minds /souls/ you name it... After only 3 days of that I was getting resentful. 

I was happy to get to some classes, where teacher would be connecting with the group and lead practice or lecture with some sense of humour. Yoga is playing as well, after all. 

I guess bilans is not bad - within two and a half day I discovered 4 excellent and inspiring practitioners and 2 outstanding spiritual leaders. 

I've received even the answer to my Quest for Vio from Mooji, a truly and simply a gorgeous soul, said "whoever you want to be, you already are". Nothing new but sometimes you have to hear it from a right person in a right context. 

I can come back home :-) 

Other stuff:

No Lonely Planet, I feel like a handicap. I can't make a mental representation of the town...don't know where I am and where I'm going... Auto rickshaw of course asks 100 rps as a start because of my white face... I have to play the game: drop it by half. It usually works, which only means that they are still making profits. And still i was ripped off - I payed 30-50 rupees for a trip that locally cost...5-10 rps as I found out later. 

I had to have my nose ring removed... It was too infected. It turned out that the ring wasn't gold but only gold coated... Bloody Indians... I got it on the other side though :-) a bit bigger :-)

You wouldn't believe it - on the very (holy) bridge of Rishikesh I bumped into Analisa - the Malteese girl that I met with Marta in Munnar (v south and v long time ago)! 

I know that today is the 8th but I just found out that we are Friday :-) holidays it's fun!
