The Introduction!!!!!


 "There is no happiness for him who does not travel, Rohita!
Thus we have heard. Living in the society of men, the best man becomes a sinner… therefore, wander!… The fortune of him who is sitting, sits; it rises when he rises; it sleeps when he sleeps; it moves when he moves. Therefore, wander"
-Aitreyee Brahmana,Rigveda

    Very well described your journey to a meaningful place. I could actually live through your description of what is called "Kashmir". Crispy details well executed. I m soon thinking of visiting that wonderful place.

Introduction Legends are born when nature cloaks herself in the morning mist of secrecy like the Veils of Isis, where unannouced dangers lurks around every corner, where the crimson red evening sky kisses the blue azure waters of the sea, where small green hillocks poke their head above the placid azure blue waters, where underground rivers gushes through dark caves, where men make love in the day and yet fight for greed at night, where man's imagination hushes up his logical mind, where nature fascinates human even today as it had done hundreds of year before!
