She is poetic by heart and the way she weaves the story around her words mesmerises you.</p>
<br />
Her latest book 'a face for you' is an office romance between Itika, a strong independent woman and Aryan, a senior collegue at work.<br />
<br />
"I see the half-remains<br />
Of lingering softness that was once us<br />
And now, this unfinished business,<br />
This bitter sweet us."<br />
<br />
I loved the way she begins each chapter with poetic refrains that have such deep meaning that it makes you pause and mull over it.<br />
<br />
The personality of Itika in her story comes live when Preeti Bose writes...<br />
<br />
"She felt violated if someone tried to 'figure her out' by checking, cross checking or wanting to know more about her, be it her family or her past. This peeling of the layers of her personality made her feel as if somebody were physically stripping her heart, layer by layer." <br />
<br />
'A face for you' is a modern-day relationship of romance and betrayal and giving love a second chance. <div><br /></div><div>Its about discovering one self.<br />

We only have to find the right path to move on...</p><p>Reading “<b>Rolling With It-Lessons learnt while Sitting Down”</b> by Vikas Shivdasani will make you cry at the helplessness of wheel chair bound person but also make you smile at the incidents that happen when you leave everything to the supreme being and learn to enjoy life as it is</p><p>Vikash Shivdasani, alias Vikki’s journey has not been an easy one..being born to rich parents, life was for enjoying with family and friends, attending parties, drinking, smoking, travels and entertainment, until the day, he fell off from 3rd floor and injured himself from waist below, became paraplegic and was confined to wheelchair.</p><p>Then began the continuous effort of healing that took him from McAllen to Houston to Los Angelos to Bangkok to Philippines, to India and other cities in finding cure, going through numerous surgeries that included Stem cell therapy, pressure soars surgeries, in an effort to return to normalcy.</p><p>The best healing has been the healing of the mind that arrives when he learnt to come in terms with reality in the company of enlightened souls like Anita Moorjani, Wayne Dyer, Elizabeth Gilbert, Devikadidi and many other healers and healees who taught him to find the strength within.</p><p>In one of the episodes, he talks about the fall he had from the wheelchair, in the middle of the night, when he went to fetch his mobile from his car. It was raining heavily and he couldn't slide back on the chair, there was no one around, he let go of his frustrations and he asked God for help when almost instantly he saw guy walking in the distance, who came to his rescue, helped him by using his thigh as leverage point, then push off to help him get back in the chair. I nearly cried at his helplessness.</p><p>He tried different sit down careers as consultant lease locator, sit up comedian, estate agencies, biology teacher but found true calling in writing, and to become spiritual healer and in meditation..</p><p>Vikki never gave up the thought of being able to walk one day. Anita Moorjani's experience, Dr Joe's work and Abraham all talked about the possibilities of being able to heal our physical bodies through tapping into highest energy or vibration of love.</p><p>His workshop at Dr Joe meditation resort at Cancum is eye opener as to what our mind is capable of achieving with concentration on different chakra and how we can manifest our energies in our life to attain what our heart desires.</p><p>There is a deep desire to be able to walk again, and Vikki nourishes this idea all times of his days and night, although he continues to live life on wheelchair, accepting it as way of life. </p><p></p><blockquote>He maintains his humour even when things were tough. he quotes </blockquote><blockquote><i>Since I was a kid I have always enjoyed being funny and telling jokes because I noticed that I made people feel better. Laughter is the best medicine they say and I have always been a guy that enjoyed laughing a lot. I especially loved getting others to laugh with me if they were dealing with tough situations. As I moved forward as a wheelchair user, I realized that I had many more opportunities to be funny and I milked it as much as I could.</i></blockquote><p></p><p>Fifteen years in wheelchair, he has met many teachers, had mystical experiences and has been connected to Divine energies. Some insecurities, some rejections has only made him stronger, he believes that world can become a better place when more people are conscious of their inner world of thoughts and feelings, and know how to regulate and change them.</p><p>Lessons that he has learnt while sitting down... are really tough one..kudos to him for writing so openly... very brave indeed..a must read for those who take life for granted...</p><div><br /></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><a href="http://feedjit.com/ir1/262255b3ec4d78e3/"><img alt="" src="http://feedjit.com/b/262255b3ec4d78e3.png" ismap/></a></div>Pushpzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03844654008613100248noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6096284216269359323.post-50269023405708192552020-11-20T12:12:00.001-08:002020-11-20T12:12:22.451-08:00Post Card From Madhya Pradesh<p> It seems like a distant dream, as I sit enclosed in my house during Pandemic, afraid to take public transport. I have been confined to my house since last 8 months, with short trips by car to my sister’s house during week-ends.

My MP trip, that I made in November 2019 has been memorable one and I have blogged in 16 parts. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The tour was of 15 days, we travelled a total of 2300kms by road plus 2 days of railway travel. Our tour started from Gwalior and ended at Indore, we covered Jhansi, Orchha, Khajuraho, Bhandavghar, Jabalpur, Pachmarhi, Bhojpur, Bhimbetkar, Sanchi, Bhopal, Ujjain , Omkeshwar, Maheshwar, Mundu, Indore.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><a href="https://chat-with-pushpee.blogspot.com/2019/12/mpdiaries-part-1the-trip.html">Part 1..

The tour operators come to receive us from the station and we are to stay at Hotel Landmark. There is lot of excitement, we go to each others room to compare the comfort and we discover that some have good rooms and some are average. Our (I shared room with my friend) room is average. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><a href="https://chat-with-pushpee.blogspot.com/2019/12/mpdiaries-part-2gwalior.html">Part 2 Gwalior</a></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The day was spent moving from Gwalior to Khajuraho.

I couldn’t see anything, but a narrow road and thick bushes on either side of the road. It seemed like a ghostly town with not a person in sight. The bus moved slowly over uneven mud road till we reached the beautiful resort called Mogli Resort. We were to stay in the middle of the jungle. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><a href="https://chat-with-pushpee.blogspot.com/2019/12/mpdiaries-part-5-bhandarvagarh.html">Part 5 Bhandarvagarh</a></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">We spend lot of time on road trip all over MP, but bus journey was not boring.

The charm of the city lies in rich cultural heritage preserved over the years. </p><p>We visited <b>Kanch ka Mandir,</b> a beautiful Jain temple where I almost lost my balance on the shiny floor. There are intricate glass mosaic everywhere..on the ceiling, on the walls, on doors and even on the ground. I was fortunate to visit the temple during prayers time. My friend (who was with me) is Jain, so she knew all the rituals that are performed during the prayers. The temple is renowned for the several glass paintings and sculptures placed inside the temple. Dating back to the Holkar dynasty, this was built in 1903 by one of India’s industrial pioneers, Seth Hukumchand Jain. The Kanch Mandir is popular for its stunning architecture and grand celebrations held during Jain festivals.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iI6ZoH8MqJs/X7f2P30oqZI/AAAAAAABLaY/vnRoxta5jP08A2LnYWlkKM2NPvrgeW7_gCLcBGAsYHQ/s823/kanch.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="823" data-original-width="720" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iI6ZoH8MqJs/X7f2P30oqZI/AAAAAAABLaY/vnRoxta5jP08A2LnYWlkKM2NPvrgeW7_gCLcBGAsYHQ/w560-h640/kanch.jpg" width="560" /></a></div><p>Next we went to see the <b>Lal Bagh Palace,</b> which dates back to Indore’s 19th-century Holkar dynasty. The palace was very tastefully done with Greek paintings on the ceiling and beautiful oil paintings in large spacious rooms. It even had jacuzzi in one of the bathrooms. I envied the women who had lived in these palaces, they must have had a great taste, because there was comfort and style in the interiors of all rooms. The Indian art historian KK Chakravarty wrote that the palace is: '<i>A blend of Italian villa, French Chateau, traditional motifs and modern conveniences, the Lal Bagh Palace is indeed a statement of riotous Victorian eclecticism not surprising, perhaps, for a ruler who supported the British.</i>'</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UgB6wE0j8fk/X7f3Ane-eYI/AAAAAAABLag/tSfLB87xLJMFw4ubA2_DwfyO_zP11bkewCLcBGAsYHQ/s960/indore3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UgB6wE0j8fk/X7f3Ane-eYI/AAAAAAABLag/tSfLB87xLJMFw4ubA2_DwfyO_zP11bkewCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h640/indore3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p>Our next stop was at <b>Central Museum,</b> The Parmar culture has originated here in Madhya Pradesh and this museum displays lots of statues that are carved out in the style. Most of the statues depicted the Hindu God Lord Shiva and Harihara, Goddess Parvati in many different poses. These belonged to the 11th and the 12th centuries. Then there were art-facts, tools and utensils on display that were used in that era. There was a nice courtyard in the centre of the museum that gave good vibrations with fresh air and sunlight. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9HM_LUlOiB4/X7f3ZusYdYI/AAAAAAABLao/iUc9ULBNCvYtNay-U55CFl8K4x39L-KGwCLcBGAsYHQ/s504/museum.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="180" data-original-width="504" height="228" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9HM_LUlOiB4/X7f3ZusYdYI/AAAAAAABLao/iUc9ULBNCvYtNay-U55CFl8K4x39L-KGwCLcBGAsYHQ/w640-h228/museum.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p>Since we were travelling with Kesari tours, the food was totally arranged by them, throughout our journey. They had their own home chefs who would cook food for us. But at Indore, the home chefs were sent off and we were enjoying the big spread of meals at the hotel where we were staying. But I love to try the street food of every place that I visit and I was deprived throughout our trip.(the organisers were afraid that we would fall sick and therefore they discouraged us from eating street food) </p><p>So, on last day, we sneak out, on our own, to walk down the city streets and enjoy the local cuisine.

MP is full of rich history and ancient architecture. Most of it has been reduced to ruins or is neglected. There are beautiful palaces and nature is abundant, but hardly any tourist. The roads are bad and infrastructure is also poor.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;"> </span><span style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;">After a long drive, we enter Mando through four narrow stone wall gates with walled enclosures and bastions. The architectural beauty starts right away, although it is surrounded by yellowed grass and dried pits. I am told that this place comes alive during rainy season when river gets filled up with water and there is greenery everywhere.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;">We reached our first stop at Jahaz Mahal. Outside the gates, there are much needed nimbu pani, roasted corn and other vendors. I am fascinated with a strange looking fruit. Its Baobab, (I am told) the famous Khusrani Imli (tamarind) of Mandu. There are many Baobab trees found in the whole of village. I buy one and open the hard skin to reveal while colour flesh, sour and tangy core. It tastes good.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;"> </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YWpt13VuW9Q/Xy7XlN5wUuI/AAAAAAABKu4/s094ihjfA0kHUn_GK9kLrMZyJc6OnnbHwCLcBGAsYHQ/s960/mundu6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="800" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YWpt13VuW9Q/Xy7XlN5wUuI/AAAAAAABKu4/s094ihjfA0kHUn_GK9kLrMZyJc6OnnbHwCLcBGAsYHQ/w800-h800/mundu6.jpg" width="800" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;">We enter the Jahaz Mahal to the splendour of the architecture. It is noted for its romantic beauty. It looks like a large ship between waters of the Munja and Kapur tanks. It is said that 500 young and beautiful Turkish females in men’s clothes and equal number of armed and uniformed Abyssinian females, used to stand as guards to its right and left sides respectively.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;"> </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s7KD54WK5SU/Xy7X7RmJH7I/AAAAAAABKvA/xmujcdkokJ0sfLDt4J2K0Qn9vNA0pNqdACLcBGAsYHQ/s960/mundu3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="800" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s7KD54WK5SU/Xy7X7RmJH7I/AAAAAAABKvA/xmujcdkokJ0sfLDt4J2K0Qn9vNA0pNqdACLcBGAsYHQ/w800-h800/mundu3.jpg" width="800" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;">At the entrance there is a beautifully carved wooden door.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;"> </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I7u97aiNy0o/Xy7YSnIEROI/AAAAAAABKvI/idh-io1bWH44dlWW5uMEW2jvbrRRqhl4gCLcBGAsYHQ/s960/mundu2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="640" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I7u97aiNy0o/Xy7YSnIEROI/AAAAAAABKvI/idh-io1bWH44dlWW5uMEW2jvbrRRqhl4gCLcBGAsYHQ/s640/mundu2.jpg" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;">We enter the stone gates to series of halls separated by corridors, having narrow rooms at the extreme ends. The view is breath-taking, terrace had projecting pavilions on each sides and hollow islet that must have served as pools.Mughal emperor Jahangir wrote in his memoirs about the wonderful assembly organised on the terrace where they hosted lavish parties, hosted by his wife Noor Jahan, at which guests over indulged in drunken revelry.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><br /></p><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iylSPCbtcoE/Xy7Yx3mHAsI/AAAAAAABKvU/Y1ofZpn3mMIuEtZNmCp6Dj3cRoqZsGd1wCLcBGAsYHQ/s960/mundu8.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="800" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iylSPCbtcoE/Xy7Yx3mHAsI/AAAAAAABKvU/Y1ofZpn3mMIuEtZNmCp6Dj3cRoqZsGd1wCLcBGAsYHQ/w800-h800/mundu8.jpg" width="800" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;">The garden and the lake surrounding the palace is well maintained (Thank God) on the right side there is Taveli Mahal.

The story of Roopmati’s eternal love for Baz Bahadur and their musical soirees linger over the Rewa Kund group of Monuments. There was a huge flight of steps leading up to the Roopmati’s pavilion, which I did not take so I missed the architectural beauty of this baradari structure that had twelve doors designed to allow free flow of air. Also missed the view from the top.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;"> </span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V0FwhV9hq8s/Xy7ZuSJQIyI/AAAAAAABKvk/2fiFyO2Y70cFy6-9i4jhpAM92PhoKxw2wCLcBGAsYHQ/s960/mundu1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="display: block; padding: 1em 0px;"><img border="0" data-original-height="960" data-original-width="960" height="800" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V0FwhV9hq8s/Xy7ZuSJQIyI/AAAAAAABKvk/2fiFyO2Y70cFy6-9i4jhpAM92PhoKxw2wCLcBGAsYHQ/w800-h800/mundu1.jpg" width="800" /></a></div><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; font-family: cambria; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;"><span face="" style="color: #385898; font-size: 14pt;">We next went to visit Baz Bahudur palace that had beautiful manicured garden and a spacious courtyard encircled by halls.

<span style="color: #1c1e21; font-family: Arial;">We crossed the cantilever type bridge(about 1/2km) above the Narmada river to reach the shrine. Loud hymns played on the bridge in the background. There were many hawkers selling all kinds of things, like offerings of flowers and prasadas, some hand crafted toys and artificial jewellery and some fruits. On our return from temple, my friend and I bought sliced cucumber with salt and red pepper…it was very tasty.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Bhojeshwar temple. The bus had stopped at quite a distance, and we walked
through narrow, broken roads, passing through thatched house where villagers still use
dried cow dung as fuel for cooking. A musician sat at the end of the road
playing drums.</span></div>

saw stairs leading up the platform. I was tired and wondered that could I buckle up so much energy to climb those steep steps that had no railing for support. My friends had already climbed up and they asked me to come from the side of the wall, luckily there was
a muddy ramp on either of the temple, so there was no need to climb those steps,<o:p></o:p></span></div>

is contributed by the fact that it was never finished and it is believed to
date back to 11<sup>th</sup> century. It is quite an odd temple with no
curvilinear domed towers, three of the walls are completely plain on the
exterior, with just a few carvings on the entrance that seemed like it was made
later.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #1c1e21; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 10.5pt;">On our way to Bhopal,
we stopped by at a very interesting site called Bhimbetka.</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Here you find large rock shelters that have
paintings that date back to thousands of years depicting the life of the people
through different eras.</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 10.5pt;">This has been
now declared as <b>UNESCO world heritage site.</b></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 10.5pt;">At some shelters, it
was easy to walk because of the wooden flooring installed there. Here is where
I could comfortably walk, without loosing my balance and could scrutinise the
paintings done on the inner flat walls that served as canvas. There were no engraving in this region. The
paintings are made from three different techniques. Transparent technique, opaque technique and
crayons technique.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="background: white; color: #1c1e21; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">You will see 15 rock shelters
occupied by the early man and the life depicted in paintings. The habitation
deposit emerge the cultural sequence from lower palacolithic to Meslithitic,
you will find in the trenches of the shelter 1 and 2 have some cupules made on
huge rock on the western end, considered by some scholars as the man’s earliest
manifestation of creativity, prohably associated with one lakh years before. An
elaborately painted shelter 4 known as zoo rock comprised 252 animals of 16
different species, from here walking towards north one can enjoy the watershed
of Betwa river and natural ambience. Noticing many painted rock shelters, you
will see the rock shelter no 15. Here an amazing scene of giant mythical animal
chasing a human, painted with ochre color, can be seen on the upper surface of
the rock shelter. You may here experience natural geological formation, various
shaped rocks and other painted rock shelters. And their natural envirnoment
including flora and fauna. Watching all these you will walk 1400 meters</span></i></blockquote>

<span style="background: white; color: #1c1e21; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Of course, I did not
walk all the 15 rock shelters, because the path at some places was quite tricky.
But it was interesting to see the drawing done on the walls<o:p></o:p></span></div>

about this site was the paintings are done with mineral colors. mainly ochre and
white on huge natural rocks of sandstone by people from different era. There
are hunting scenes, battle scenes, different animals, birds, hunting tools
flora and fauna of that era painted over different generation and still very
clearly visible. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

shelters in this region...as for me..I visited the site that had 15 rock
shelters and I just saw few because of shortage of time. But i enjoyed sitting
on smooth black rock admiring the panoramic view of the landscape surrounding the
rocks.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

of tourists visiting this place for natural beauty and caves, the
infrastructure is very poor. The gardens are well developed but the roads are
poorly developed. I needed assistance during my walks and I did not dare to
walk up the steep hills. I wanted to see the Pandav caves, but there were
narrow steep steps to climb up and I would not dare. I sat for some time under the
tree, then decided to walk around the garden. The garden was well maintained
and had manicured plants and trees. It had lots of cactus and rich flora and
fauna.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

naughty monkeys who surprise you with their sudden appearance and may even
steal your belongings if you are not careful. The jeep driver advised us to
pick up the sticks to scare the monkeys away. We walked down the dirt road with
sticks in our hand and headed towards Mahadeva temple. We just climbed 52
steps to reach a cave. The cave was dark and wet. There was a small waterfall
inside the cave, water was cool to touch, I washed my feet and walked towards
the Shiva idol. The energy inside the cave was very positive and it really felt
good.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

road trip all over MP, but bus journey was not boring. I am reminded of the
movie ‘<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Bombay to Goa’ </b>wherein you
meet all kinds of people. Some are dozing, some fast asleep, some noisy, some
want to sing, some want to eat. My friends spent most of their journey playing
cards…just three of them across the aisle, they would play different games..it
was a good time pass for them. I was occupying the front seat and could see the
road from the glass window in front of me. I had made myself comfortable by
tucking cushions behind my back and a shawl over my legs. I enjoyed the journey
watching cities pass by.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The lane is laced on both sides with
shops selling handicraft items and articles made of pure marble. We walked
across small alleys with shops selling artifacts, marble statues, incense stick
holders, marble turtles, vases and everything that can be made with marble. You
can even get your names inscribed on marble designs. Turtles seem to be the
favorites they were designed in various forms and mate</span><span style="color: #1c1e21; font-family: "inherit","serif"; font-size: 10.5pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-IN; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">rials. </span><span style="color: #1c1e21; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.5pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-IN; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">There were some beautiful marble toys
that I have never seen anywhere else in India. The lane seemed endless,
stretched over more than a kilometre. I walked halfway but decided to take a
cable car instead. This was the best option and the view from top was splendid.
It seemed like a miniature of Niagara falls. The waters of Narmada river fall
over glittering marble rocks with such force that it leaves you amazed at the
beauty of the nature...<o:p></o:p></span></div>

down for one and half kilometre to experience the waterfall, we were glad that
we took a ride in the cable car and watched from the top. Of course, had we
walked down closer to the waters, we could have wet our feet and enjoyed the
spray on our faces, but then you cannot get everything…<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.5pt;">After driving all day,
we reached Bhandarvagarh late evening. I couldn’t see anything, but a narrow
road and thick bushes on either side of the road. It seemed like a ghostly town
with not a person in sight. The bus moved slowly over uneven mud road till we reached the beautiful
resort called Mogli Resort. We were to stay in the middle of the jungle. I was
quite impressed with the rooms, it was large and spacious with all the comfort one could ask for.
There was a big open ground surrounding all the villas and a dining hall across
our room.</span></div>

was spent playing group games. Since our group was divided into two groups, one
group for 15days tours and second group for 7days tour. This was the last day
for group doing 7days tour. We had evening of games..childish but fun…just
being alert in pronouncing certain words….the person who was most alert was the
winner, the distracted ones faltered. I had no interest in playing any such
games but enjoyed distracting the players with my comments. till all my friends dropped out.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

evening was spent enjoying the traditional folk dance of MP called karma Nach.
These dances are the reflection of rich heritage culture of the state. The
dancers were dressed in vibrant colorful costumes. The women had their head
covered and danced gracefully in rhythm with slow hand movements. Men had
sticks in their hand striking the sticks of the persons on their sides and they
all moved in circles adding the dramatic rhythm. They also performed acrobatic
dance. Such dances are normally performed during festivals to celebrate the
rich harvest by the natives of Madhya Pradesh..</span><span style="background: white; color: #1c1e21; font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 10.5pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-IN; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p> </o:p></span></blockquote>

considered as the UNESCO World Heritage site.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

and are famous for their nagara architectural symbolism and their erotic sculptures.
There were about 84 postures of<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>erotic
sculptures. We were asked to listen to the guide to understand the legends and
the stories hidden behind these sculptures. There were beautiful carvings around
the walls of the temples and I stood there admiring the art and workmanship of
the artist. .. some sculptures depict the tantric activity in sex, some the
lifestyles and the cultural history of the people that lived in that era. They
told the story of how people spend their time,, men hunting and travelling,
women grooming and entertaining.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There
were apsaras elegantly dressed in finery and jewels, with mirror in their hand,
applying kohl in their eyes or henna in their hair. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

how people tried to keep the balance between their worldly pleasure and their spiritual
life. Then there are sculptures of musicians, painters, army, animals, instruments used for different purpose, arm weapons, vehicles, transport and also flowers mainly lotus. Every God had their
own vehicle. Just like Ganesha has mouse as its vehicle, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Kaam God (the God of passion) has parrot as

moving from Gwalior to Khajuraho. On our route, we stopped at Jhansi and
Orchha. The bus was comfortable but the roads were bad. Most of the roads are
being redeveloped, There is construction everywhere to built better roads, some
of the cities of MP have plans to become smart cities.</span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 10.5pt;">On our way, we stopped at </span><b style="color: #222222; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.5pt;">Jhansi</b><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "helvetica"; font-size: 10.5pt;"> ro see the Jhansi fort.

to the palace to have a dekho, but I was in no mood to climb the steep hill,
therefore I just waited in the bus. However the guide came to the bus to tell
me the story of Rani Laxmibai of Jhansi. He said that she married at the age of
11years, was widowed by 22years and died at 27yrs. It is amazing that she
accomplished so much in such a short life. Later, my friends told me about the
palace and the artifacts they saw at the museum and that I had missed it.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

navigate, specially to walk up the stairs that had no railings. We entered a
large courtyard, that was surrounded by smaller rooms. Only two rooms had
beautiful paintings on the walls and on the ceilings (belonging to the<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>king and the queen). Raj Mahal was occupied
back then (in another century) by king and his six wives. However only the
senior most queen enjoyed all the privileges, she had large room with
beautiful painting, while others had just bare bedrooms. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

that queens spend<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>most of their time in
their room, or on the <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>terrace or in the courtyards.
Their parameters of movement was restricted to only inside the palace. (how
lonely their life must have been, sometimes I wonder about that)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

to reach <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Jahangir Palace</b>. The
architecture is beautiful, with hanging balconies and turquoise blue tiles,
built in 17<sup>th</sup> century as a warm reception to Jahangir, but climbing

some cars parked in the driveway, so I discovered that there was no need to

we go to each others room to compare the comfort and we discover that some have
good rooms and some are average. Our (I shared room with my friend) room is
average. After freshening up, we go to the dining hall that is behind the
building. We meet other members of the group over the short introduction. There
are about 48 people who will travel with us..28 members have taken 7days tour
and 22 members will be taking 15days tour with us. We have two buses.</span></div>

the picture of Gwalior fort, I would never dare to explore it..I am afraid of
steep steps and long treks..but somehow the curiosity got better of me and I
followed my friends, walking slowly and went ahead to admire the architecture
of this beautiful fort that is two miles long and 35 feet high. We had a guide
with us who told us interesting stories as he took us around the fort, showing
us the music rooms, library, entertainment lawn and many other rooms..The
carvings and the designs on the walls had significance of art and
culture....unfortunately, the mirrors that gave the fort its beauty are not
there anymore but it indeed fits its description as "The pearl amongst the
fortresses of Hind" </i></span></blockquote>

musicians. It is believed that even when a child cries..there is music in his
voice .Remember Tansen? The great musician of Mughal era? His body rests here
surrounded by architectrual structure with hexagonal pillars in four corners.
The building is square, topped by a square dome with blue ceramic tiles. The
tomb walls have intricate carvings with latticework. There was a tamarind tree
closer to Tansen's tombs. We plucked the sour leaves to clear our throat and
then tried to sing classical like Tansen...we still couldn't match his
talent...but at least we tried....</i></span></blockquote>

palace had 423 rooms..how they kept it sparkling clean is anybody's guess but
for fitness freak, just walking inside the palace can cover 10,000 steps. I saw
only 25 rooms that had branded furniture and women wore gold embroidered
clothes that we now see successful ppl wearing during weddings. There was a big
indoor swimming pool with diving board, a big banquet hall with silver train
that carried hard drinks for the guest and 2 huge crystal chandlers that
are supposed be the biggest in the world.. it is the 19th century
residence cum museum, it has splendid architecture and beautiful curios that
belonged to Mughal Emperors and legendary Laxmibai of Jhansi. Unfortunately
there was no lift in such a huge palace and climbing up and down to visit
different rooms was quite challenging for me. </i></span></blockquote>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10.5pt;">Of all the places in
India, Madhya Pradesh is not so popular as a holiday destination..I.mean, the number
of trips that I have done in India in the North South East West, visiting places for
scenic beauty or for food or for pleasure, or even to visit a relative, never
have I planned MP until now...out of curiosity, I decided to join my seven
friends to tour around MP with Kesari tours, I have travelled three times
before with these tour operators and have been quite satisfied with their services.
They take care of us, put us up in a reasonably good hotels, serve a
comfortable trip and more over, they have travelling-in-house-cooks, who
promptly prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner at what ever venue we are
reaching, so we get good freshly cooked food and snacks.</span></div>

disappointed. I was totally surprised that there is so much to explore in MP,
fortunately, they are in the process of building some smart cities, so there
was lot of constructions going on..we were warned about bad roads and long
delays on road trips, but there has been improvement and the trips were
satisfactory.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

journey cause I had a front seat where I could watch the road and enjoy the
view and the sun sets that filtered through the glass panes. My seat was very
comfortable with extra cushions tucked aways behind my back and a shawl

cards or chit chat, but I mostly dozed or spend my time reading or writing
while I enjoyed the view from my front seat.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Few weeks ago I
received my personal copy of “<b>A Hundred little flames</b>” autographed by Preeti
Shenoy. It’s a fast paced book and quite enjoyable too (specially the second half
of the book where you learn about the life of grandpa through his diary entries).
A book on relationship, sacrifices, courage, pure love and comfort. Story of young Ayan who comes to live with his Grandfather, Gopal, to take care of him in a
small village in Kerala. Preeti Shenoy has touched the chords of all kinds of
relationship and as the story unfolds, true loves shines on.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Some relations we take
for granted, specially those who live close to us. Our family. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Parents,
siblings, relatives, they are around us all the time, whether we need them or
not. Sometimes we have family disputes, we part ways and cousins grow up as strangers. We
have discussions, sometime heated arguments, but many times we are back together at
the end of the day. Whenever there is celebrations, festivals or an occasion to
meet, we get opportunity to rebuild the friendship. Sometimes the bond is created and some times not. But family remains there until lifetime.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">With free Watsapp video
and phone calls, the bond has become even stronger. The distances don’t
separate us any more. Whom ever we remember, they are just a phone call away. I
feel blessed to be connected to my family- aunts, uncles, niece, nephews,
cousins. We have family groups, cousins groups, close friends groups, it keeps the conversations going, and the news is updated regularly in-between 'Goodmorning' , 'greetings' and forward messages. Since my family is scattered all around the world, its fun travelling
and visiting them. We have our favourites, we plan vacations together and meet regularly in some or other
part of the world.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Friends on other hand,
last only as long as the bond is strong. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">A mild misunderstanding, or temporary
separation and the relationship fades away.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I have been fortunate to develop close relationship with many friends. Some
have lasted lifetime, many have parted ways. When I meet them after many years,
I cannot remember their name. Its very embarrassing. I am short of
conversation. Where do I begin the dialogue? How freely can I ask about their
private life. I don’t wish to be nosy but still I want to know the details of
the missing years. Where does that love disappear? How have their priorities
changed? <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Where do we draw a line? I have
short memory, what is past is best forgotten. I only enjoy the present moment. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">The
same kind of relationship cannot be built with same person after a gap of many
years. Or can they??<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">You can never control
whom you fall in love with. Be it man or woman, love just happens. We don’t
fall in love with people because they are fun, pretty, influential, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>it just happens. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Relationship that is
based on give-and-take is always short lived. Expectations are large and
disappointments even larger. We can give love but cannot expect the people to
love us back. love can only be earned, it cannot be forced. I have realised that I don't have to change to make people like me. Love is built on respect, adjustment and selflessness, where the
comfort level is high. I just have to be myself and people must love the real me. Silence and anger is never a solution, ego built up , ruins relationship. Communication is important. If we have spirit of understanding everything in positive way, there will never be any level of pressure.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Greatest pain is when
death do us apart -be it a close friend or a family member. You feel the void, the emptiness. We try to
evaluate whether we could have been a little bit more kind, more adjusting, more
caring, but then its too late.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">As we age, we will see
more separations from our loved ones. The older we get, the more lonely we will get. We can built relationship with younger people half our age, but it will never
be the same. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica neue"; font-size: 10.5pt;">Life will go on. Time
does not stop for anybody. Tomorrow will be another day….<o:p></o:p></span></div>

done an excellent job of engaging the reader’s attention with a story that
involves Punjabi widows.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

law-student drop-out, takes up the job of English tutor at the Indian Community
Centre at Southhall gurudwara, where widows enroll. The women don’t know to
read or write but they have bold fantasies and stories beneath their white
garment. The English workshop turns into erotic story-telling club. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

to share their dark secrets of longings and womanhood, The widow have great fun.
Only one woman writes the stories while others relate.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The thrill begins when the stories leak out
of the classroom, and are passed through emails and photocopies to the whole of Indian community in
London.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

to read about the erotic detail of the older women of Indian community. Such
topics are taboo in our culture and we hardly hear such intimate stories. (not even amongst our close friends). I
even hid the book, when I had visitors at home, fearing judgement for a single
person like me seeking pleasures on a sly. </span></div>

interesting plot that captivated me till the last page.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #4b4f56; font-size: 10.5pt;">This
week, I was invited to watch the play Yugpurush (in Hindi) at Nehru Centre.
Until now (forgive my ignorance) I was not aware that our great leader Mahatama
Gandhi also had mentor who played a pivotical role in shaping up his strong
character of peace through non-violence.</span></div>

<span style="color: #4b4f56;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;">This
is the best play I have watched in a long time. I was very impressed by the
dialogue delivery, the expressions (that were so realistic) and the way the
play was handled. It transported me to another century where Mahatma tells the story of his mentor, Shripad Rajchandra, a</span></span><span style="color: #4b4f56; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span><span style="color: #4b4f56;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;">poet, philosopher, spiritual guru and one of
the Mahatama’s closest friend, and how he was responsible for shaping up his
personality and his belief in non-</span></span><span style="color: #4b4f56; font-family: inherit, serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">violence</span></span><span style="color: #4b4f56;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;"> and his peaceful solution to grave
problems.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

another. At one point, you are in his humble home, where he is sitting by his
loom weaving cloth, at another moment he is in Bombay, as a young Lawyer
looking for a job, where he meets his mentor, At another instant he is at the ship
yard with tourist on route to his trip to Africa and at another instant, he is
in Jail with his freedom fighters behind the bars. The play scores the most in
creating realistic and visually stunning scenarios throughout its duration.The
story moves from present to past to present again and the inert positions of
the actors </span></span><span style="color: #4b4f56; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span><span style="color: #4b4f56;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt;">transports you to that era.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

one scene, Mahatma is caught up between two religions, Muslim and Christianity

<span style="color: black; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Last week I spent few days at the tea estate
at Peermade, four hours drive away from Cochin. I was with my women companions...friends
who are beautiful inside out..ones who I love most dearly..ones who add
sunshine to my life, the combination of their presence with the beautiful
stretch of greenery spread over miles and miles of open space transported me to
another world..of happiness and bliss...a pure personal delight.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My virtual friends <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>on social media, who saw the pictures of my trip
thought that I was at the most boring place to be, since they could not see any
other people besides us. They wondered as to what fun could we have in such a
lonely place. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">But believe
me Rohit, it was a wonderful experience. I wish you had also come along with
us, I am sure you would have liked it. I know, I know, its my fault. But then,
I couldn't have invited you since we were a group of only five women.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14pt;">Early
mornings were the best. The crisp air had lovely fragrance, perfect time to
practise Ramdev's pranayams. We would spend the time on cane furniture, out at
the porch, soaking in the sun, sipping warm jeera flavored water, chit chatting
in our night clothes, our hands clutching the shawl wrapped tightly over our
shoulder. So many stories to share..of family, of friends, of good times,
of bad times, knitting the canvas of past memories </span><span style="font-family: inherit , serif;"><span style="font-size: 18.6667px;">together</span></span><span style="font-size: 14pt;">, bridging the
moments with laughter and fun. Each day was so precious, that I would wish it
could last forever. </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Not that
there was no moment of silence, there were. Sometimes I sought an empty corner of
the house to be alone..to check my thoughts..but it lasted just a while. The </span><span style="font-size: 18.6667px;">murmurs</span><span style="font-size: 14pt;"> of group chat always distracted me...I </span><span style="font-size: 18.6667px;">didn't</span><span style="font-size: 14pt;"> want to miss on those
conversations. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Days were
spent exploring the area, driving through the uneven dirt tracks
in between long stretches of small neatly arranged shrubs of tea plantation.,
some of roads were too narrow and bumpy, so dangerous that we slipped off
our seats. Since seat belt is not an Indian culture...we held on tightly to seats or to the friend</span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-family: "ms 明朝"; font-size: 14.0pt;">’</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">s arm for support....eyes popping off sockets with

option. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Rohit, I am
sure you would have enjoyed the South Indian cuisine.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When in Kerala, eat what locals eat...so
south Indian food was our regular diet. We had three cooks in the kitchen who
pampered us with their delicious cuisine. Fish made regular appearance at
our dining table so much so that our vegetarian friends wondered how we could
enjoy the fish everyday. But we did. It may seem like same fish everyday to my
vegetarian friends, what do they know the difference in taste between Rawas,
Tuna or Sardines? For them fish means fish, with tail, head, fins. One
afternoon I even spend some time in the kitchen watching the cooks churn out
a tasty fish curry. I have made a note of the recipe and clicked pictures
too and I plan to cook for you sometime. Coconut rice was another dish that I
enjoyed a lot..you would have loved the delicious coconut bits with dash of
mustard seeds and curry leaves...You missed it, I am telling you, you really
missed it. For my vegetarian friends there were dosas and appam with stew or
sambar...and spicy coconut chutney.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; tab-stops: 45.8pt 91.6pt 137.4pt 183.2pt 229.0pt 274.8pt 320.6pt 366.4pt 412.2pt 458.0pt 503.8pt 549.6pt 595.4pt 641.2pt 687.0pt 732.8pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; tab-stops: 45.8pt 91.6pt 137.4pt 183.2pt 229.0pt 274.8pt 320.6pt 366.4pt 412.2pt 458.0pt 503.8pt 549.6pt 595.4pt 641.2pt 687.0pt 732.8pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">We were not totally
cut off from reality. Although it was difficult to get telephone range, we were lucky. We had wifi. It was easy to stay connected on line. I was
able to post pictures on Instagram and also tweeted some interesting moments. We
heard music on U-tube. Lazy hours were dotted with music and game of cards. We played with only plastic chips, winning a game brought so much
pleasure. I also cheated in game of cards, (like I always do) but then it was
not with real money, so its okay to cheat and be caught in that act.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I captured many candid shots on my camera to
share on Facebook and Watsapp hoping that you would see. But you didn't. People
who saw the pictures were not very impressed. They felt impossible to believe that I could enjoy in
such wilderness...there is not a soul...just greenery...But we did....<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">On our third day, we
went into the city at Tekkady..We walked down a busy street, shopping for
silver jewellery, ate freshly fried hot banana chips. In the south, they fry banana chip
on the road like they fry batatawadas in Mumbai. The air smelt strongly of
burnt oil. </span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">I even sneaked into a beauty parlour for instant kerala spa. I
wanted to try the Shirodhara massage, an Ayurvedic treatment
that consists on dripping oil on the forehead, exactly in the place
where the traditional Indian culture says the third eye is located, I was told
that we could find the gate to our inner realms, in a randomised,
controlled protocol involving regular movements. But then, I would have to wait
for two more hours at the place and then go out with oily body. (Friend tells
me that after such massage you are in daze, you walk like zomby with irregular
gait). Time was short, so I went for just head massage.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">We went to
see Kathakali dance. Have you see this beautiful cultural performance? This
dance focussed on facial expressions. The performers are dressed in huge stiff
colorful dress, their face painted with thick different color mask. The colors reflect
certain categories of emotions and gunas (attributes). For example Green goes
with godliness, white with spirituality, red with ambition and violence, yellow
with passivity and black with evil. Rohit, did you know that?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "inherit" , "serif"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Their eyes
rolled to the rhythm of mridangam from left to right, up and down like marble
chips on a billiard board, their face expressions narrating a mythological story
without words. You have to see this performance Rohit, this is so amazing.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 14pt;">Later, we
walked down the spice garden, plucking out the bark of cinnamon off the tree,
or nibbling on fresh, soft cardamom seeds. There were bay leaves, and cloves,
and edible leaves and herbs,</span><span style="color: black; font-size: 14pt;"> </span><span style="font-size: 14pt;">spice
fragrance was so strong that I had an urge to cook a Briyani. We did some spice
shopping at the end of spice trail. </span><span style="font-family: inherit , serif;"><span style="font-size: 18.6667px;">Unnecessary</span></span><span style="font-size: 14pt;"> expenses, you would say, if

<span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 14pt;">I have always been interested in decoupage art. It is very simple to
make, all it requires is patience and innovation. The best part is that we can
use almost any thing, tissue paper, greeting cards, fabric, magazine clippings,
newspaper, photographs, etc. All you need to do is to cut, paste and then
cover with several coats of varnish or lacquer. Some of the decoupage work that
I have done in the past……</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Lately I attended a decoupage workshop to get into the groove and
re-hone my creative skills. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/50Youngofficial/">50-young group </a>had organised the decoupage workshop
and Sangeeta Pardeshi was our mentor. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 14.0pt;">All the things that were required for this session on decoupage were
neatly assembled on the table. Colorful tissue paper, glue, sponge, sandpaper, Mod
fudge, latex white paint and wooden pencil holder.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 14.0pt;">We started by painting the wooden pencil holder with latex white paint
and kept it for drying.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 14.0pt;">The printed tissue paper was a special kind and it had three layers. We
separated the three layers, discarded the plane ones and worked on printed layer only. The border had to be torn off. Tearing the paper is better than cutting, the rough edges of the tissue blends easily with the back ground. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 14.0pt;">For 3d work
that I had work on some time back, a very sharp scissors was used to cut the
prints separately, the white edges were painted black before I could use it. Three
layers of same print were placed one over the other to give depth by folding
the second and third layer. (well that is for advance work)<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Coming back, the three layers of tissue paper were separated, and the
colorful printed top layer was used for the project.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times"; font-size: 14.0pt;">Working slowly, we applied glue to the white pencil holder (that we had
painted earlier)…stuck the tissue paper with the brush and applied glue neatly
(inside and outside of tissue) in one direction only over the print. Care must be taken to avoid crease and to iron out the bubble (if any). Left it to
dry<o:p></o:p></span></div>
