Elephanta
~ The
Abode Of Shiva ~ by Manju Dubey - During the early days of Hindu
philosophy, cave temples became the symbol of piety and extreme religious
leanings. Many cave temples were made during this period. At this point
in time there was a mix of followers of different religions such as Hinduism,
Jainism and Buddhism. Religious tolerance and openness is evident by the
fact that devotees of any of these religions carved out the idols of their
favorite deity. So it is not common to find Hindu, Buddhist or Jain cave
temples harmoniously existing together since time immemorial. The journey
to the Elephanta Caves is like a journey back in time, the caves are remarkably
well–preserved. Dec./05 |

One
Week In The Coastal Paradise Of Western India ~In
Goa ~ by Rajdeep Bhattacharjee - As I was wondering where to escape
to during this time of the year, I received a call from Catherine, a friend
of mine from Kolkata who wanted me to join her on a trip to Goa. Wow!!!
I just jumped out of the chair and said yes immediately. As we were both
camping at different locations, we decided to meet up at Mumbai Airport.
It was on the morning of 24th October, I took the newly introduced Spice
Jet flight from New Delhi and reached Mumbai in the afternoon and was joined
by Catherine who was waiting for me since morning. Nov./05 |

Nagarhole
~ A
Visit Worth Remembering ~ by Manju Dubey - Our holiday was nearing
and the children were clamoring to go. Collectively we hit on the idea
of visiting the nearest tourist destination with a back to the nature feel.
The kids decided we should visit wildlife sanctuaries. Out of the 400 odd
sanctuaries, National Parks and reserve areas, we decided to visit the
one nearest to our hometown and with an economical cost. So Nagarhole was
it! The journey began at six in the morning, with a slight mist and our
eager heads popping out to see any wild animal by chance. The tiger is
shy of any human contact, but any animal sighting would have been welcome.

Tendong
Hill ~ Unfolding
The Himalayan Folklore ~ by Arijit Karmakar - India is the
land of a million Gods and a billion mortals. Here legend is a part of
history and faith is unquestioned, thus I begin my journey in search of
a folktale, where the entire human race was saved from the wrath of Gods
when they took refuge in a mountain. I am heading for Tendong Hill in Sikkim.
Sikkim is tucked in the North Eastern part of India and is surrounded by
Nepal, Tibet (China) and Bhutan. It is overlooked by the mighty Himalayas
and its guardian deity is the third highest mountain in the world - Mt.
Khanchendzonga. Dec./05 |
The
Valley Of Gold? ~ Ford's
Plans To Turbocharge Himalayan Tourism ~ by Qiwi Lin Lisolet -
Today I shook hands with Alfred Ford, great grandson of the legendary Henry
Ford. What's most surprising is that this wasn't in Aspen or St. Moritz,
but in the small Himalayan town of Manali, a town Mr. Ford plans to put
on the world tourism map with the construction of an ambitious new ski
resort. Dec./05 |
Gateway
Of The Gods ~ Haridwar
~ by Manju Dubey - Kerala is referred to as God’s own country in India,
but I don’t see how we cannot refer to the little state of Uttaranchal
when talking of God's country. It has the majestic Himalayas and the graceful
Ganges flowing across it, as well as abundant flora and fauna. It’s the
abode of nearly all the Hindu Gods and Goddesses. One such place is Haridwar
or the Gateway of the Gods. Legend says that for some reason Lady Ganges
was very mad and in a destructive mood. When she was about to flow in from
the heavens in fa ury and touch the earth such large-scale destruction
was unparalleled. Aug./05 |

India
- Republic of India
The Indus
Valley civilization, one of the oldest in the world, goes back at least
5,000 years. Aryan tribes from the northwest invaded about 1500 B.C.; their
merger with the earlier inhabitants created the classical Indian cullture.
Arab incursions starting in the 8th century and Turkish in 12th were followed
by European traders beginning in the late 15th century. By the 19th century,
Britain had assumed political control of virtually all Indian lands. Nonviolent
resistance to British colonialism under Mohandas GANDHI and Jawaharlal
NEHRU led to independence in 1947. The subcontinent was divided into the
secular state of India and the smaller Muslim state of Pakistan. A third
war between the two countries in 1971 resulted in East Pakistan becoming
the separate nation of Bangladesh. Fundamental concerns in India include
the ongoing dispute with Pakistan over Kashmir, massive overpopulation,
environmental degradation, extensive poverty, and ethnic and religious
strife, all this despite impressive gains in economic investment and output. |

Writers Course - You want to live overseas. You want to live
free. You want to be your own boss and keep your own hours. The question

learned, just as one learns to tie their shoes, or stand one leg.
It isn't an automatic process, but what is? Now there is an expat
writers course that can show you the basics... next you'll be living
in Paris and sitting in hip cafes... or maybe you'll be in Budapest
writing an ebook. Check it out. |
