SOON, I will be leaving for 3 weeks in India to experience a pilgrimage to the Kumbha Mela festival. It is a sacred and auspicious time that occurs every 12 years. I believe this is the 144th year, so it is even more auspicious. Millions and millions come to be a part of it and to experience healing in the Ganges River, or Mother Gunga. I'm both excited and somewhat nervous, mostly about the looooong flights. But I know it will be life changing, whatever happens! How lucky am I to be able to go, and go with friends from Yoga North Duluth, and to have the Chairman and Spiritual Head of the Himalayan Institute, Pandit Rajmani Tigunait, PhD, be our guru and our guide, and to stay on the grounds of the Himalayan Institute while in India. Something to do before I die (which I'm not anticipating in the near future).
Now to figure out a way to get my sleeping bag into my suitcase!
