Beautiful. You’ve had – and described – experiences that many of us can only dream about. One that is this deep and this long is truly wonderful. I hope that this visit is more than either of you can imagine.
You’re very kind, Jim!
Wonderful, Peggy. It’s significant that you’ve published this on Raksha Bandan, Rakhi Day in India, full moon day in August. Traditionally, it celebrates the bond of love and protection between brother and sister, and today it signifies a spiritual bond between people in general. It involves tying a bracelet (usually made of colorful cotton) around the wrist of another.
I’m delighted by this accidental timing, Chris, and thank you for pointing it out. I had no idea. And you know a great deal about this; you’ve spent a lot of time in India?
Yes, Peggy, I studied yoga philosophy in India and continue to do so with the guidance of my Guru.
Oh, I don’t think your post was accidental, Peggy 🙂
Well, unconscious at least.
It shows, Chris! And thank you for the very informative video on Rakhi Day .
