India in Oct...

topic posted Sun, September 4, 2005 - 8:12 PM by  Aradia
Looks like I am going back to India in a few weeks... I plan to travel for the month of Oct, either around the south or possible spend some time in Varansi. I am interested in going to Auroville, and possible Ramand Marashi's ashram... But I'm flexible.. I am doing a training that starts the first of nov, outside of Bombay, and that is all I know for sure.
I was there 4 years ago and traveled alone and swore to myself I would never do it again, but hey here I go....thanks.. Aradia

    october is a pleasant month in India.as temp is not so high in south India and Auroville is a nice place and near the coast.Varanasi is the most ancient city of India and its the centre for learning music ,culture and dance.
    welcome to this spiritual land

    well climate would be pleasant

    and do visit to Vipasana near Nasik

    roughly 200 kms away from Mumbai ( Bombay )

    you will be required to stay for 14 days ..... dont want to say more

    but it would be wonderful if you are interested in art of living , yoga , medition, spiritulasation..... etc

    raju :)
