India

Rewalsar, India, and a few photos from Dharamsala. Rewalsar, in Tibetan, is Tso Pema. It’s a small town sacred to Hinduism, Tibetan Buddhism, and Sikhism…and a great place for meditating.

For more details of my adventures in India, read my India travel blog!

Most of these photos were taken in Rewalsar, where I spent two weeks up in the caves with the meditators and nuns. Some, however, are from the road to Dharamsala (where I'm wiriting this), and a few from Dharamsala itself. I plan to put up a Dharamsala page, later.

<p>You must go to Tso Pema to really appreciate it. Words will not do it, and neither will photos. You have to be there, looking down on the world, looking up at the massive slopes of the Himalayan mountains, to really appreciate it.</p><p>Nonetheless these are pretty photos...</p>
