Introspection

    In the midst of the rocky Hampi hills, are a series of caves. These caves are maintained by a group of people in the area as meditation cells, for solitary retreats.

    Anyone coming on a retreat has a cave to sleep and meditate in. They are brought food twice a day by the volunteers. At the end of the retreat, they just leave a voluntary donation. Roshnii and I had met some of the group in Auroville and decided to spend a few nights there.

    The area was beautiful, the cave homely and the silence invigorating. We were the only ones there at the time. You can see Rosnii's cave here.

      I think I would be meditating upon where I could find some berries for breakfast. Room service must bring peace of mind!

      I don't remember seeing this photo before now.
      It is a rather timeless image.
