"We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls."
Anais Nin
I am back in South Africa, after my travelling adventures in Europe and India. Home with an empty chest, and a head filled with Indian daydreams. Her effect on me has been permanent, this place of growth, death, love, light and warmth. So much warmth from the lotus land. Puja nights by the Ganges, Buddhist lessons in patience, dusty landscapes, my heart's intent to return, vibrant night markets, new mantras to abide to, butter lamps, the silent enlightened, contented smiles from strangers, incense blessings, unfolding petals, palace passages, the blaze of sunset and saris to remember forever. All this to set a soul on fire.
