Vykort från Indien / Postcards from India


Divine (bovine) cow protection program. 150 cows from the street has found a home in this Radha Kundha Goshala.



Arriving in the simple village Vrindavan



We did not only see wild peacocks, Lina also found a feather






Taj Mahal, the symbol of temporary love.



They were studying english but when i asked their favorite subject, they said after a while thinking "hindi".



We went for planting a tree to help the reforestation of the Vrindavan. We planted banyan, mango, pepolum, guava and neem trees.



Ancient buildings in the jungle


One out of 5 farmer brothers. They gave us the most amazing parathas with pickles and were very sweet. We got the grandmothers blessings i hope...



Simple village life in India (with the family Goddess Vrinda devi sculpted on the house) and Grandmother of the family coming with water on her head.



Jannica, Lina and Gunilla in the holy Vrindavan



Visiting mystic temple Sri Sri Radha Raman where the deity self-manifested 500 years ago, taking secret photo.



Meeting incredible persons like Paramahamsa Maharaj, the incarnation of devotion who is always absorbed in meditation, hard work service and prayer.



This snake didnt like to be around my neck and tried to strangle me. This one was tame, but we have seen two poisonous cobras by now already, one in the river Yamuna and the other on the street. The villagers are very afraid of the cobras so i guess the wild ones really do bite sometimes.
