To Deepti about Age of Hinduism

[Guest guest]

Dear Deepti,

 

Your account of your experience in the Andes was incredible. I have always

wanted to go on one of these trips ... usually the ones I'm looking at are

shamanically oriented in that they are being organized by someone in the U.S.

who is interested in and practices shamanism. Now the time has passed by for me

to do this, unless I somehow become healthier. But it was wonderful reading

about the, I will say similarities, between this ancient culture and India.

(I can't find the right word to describe these discoveries because

similarities or synchronicities doesn't feel quite correct. It really does

appear that

there was widespread global travel, with people from different cultures

moving and then carrying their traditions to the place they had chosen.) This

is a

n amazing topic, and I'm glad we are discussing it because this has always

been of great interest to me. I also really enjoyed reading about the glowing

Swami and the vedic homa performed in the Andean mountains. Thank you ~ Linda

P.S. I know I have mentioned the woman college teacher I studied

ethnomusicology with. She was a shaman in her own right, originally from the

Andean

mountains. I had some incredible experiences working with her.
