Pushkar, India
Pushkar is simply beautiful. Upon arrival we went down to Holy "Pushkar" Lake, where we were able to view the bathing Ghats, Brahma Temple, Sihk Temple, and some various other temples. We were in awe of the peacefulness of this place, but it only seems natural that a place where Ghandi's ashes were placed would be peaceful. A Brahman Priest approached us and asked us if we would like to be blessed ( for a small fee of course). Why not? It was actually a very special event where we recieved "Holy Passports"( in the form of string tied around our wrists, red paint on our foreheads, and rice stuck to the paint...oh yes, it was super sexy) We enjoyed the education and blessings that he offered. It was a traditional ceremony and we prayed together for our loved ones and he assured us that we were blessed...not before he asked us for more money. India, go figure.
Pushkar was a heaven for us ( well more so for me), in addition to being a dry city everyone needs a little sobriety once in a while), the entire city is vegetarian...whoooppppeeee! It is also home to many Herbal massage spas and we both enjoyed a 1 1/2 hour Ayurvedic Massage for a total of @ $ 25.oo U.S!
It was very mellow town, but our next stop was Agra, home of the Taj Mahal, and we were blown away. We will let the pictures speak for themselves. Love from Pushkar-the most bathed in Holy Lake in India.
