Travel Day 965 – Varkala, Kerala, INDIA Since I walked inland yesterday, I never actually got to explore the coastline south of Varkala Beach and so I decided to continue today where I left off yesterday… The first part of my early morning walk brought me back down to the puja area between the cliffs, […]
Travel Day 964 – Varkala, Kerala, INDIA Since I really enjoyed my little exploration walk yesterday morning, today I obviously had to get up early again and see something else… While I made my way up north along the coast yesterday, it seemed only a natural choice that I would walk in the opposite direction […]
Travel Day 963 – Varkala, Kerala, INDIA After spending a couple of relaxing Daycation days at the beach, I decided that it was time for a little bit of discipline again… In the ashram the early morning hours had always been the most enjoyable time of the day because everything always seemed extremely peaceful and […]
Travel Day 958 to 962 – Varkala, Kerala, INDIA Initially I wanted just a short Travel Daycation in Varkala, but this little tourist oasis, as I called it before, turned out to be more captivating than expected… On my first day away from the ashram I felt just drained of all my energy and the […]
Travel Day 957 – Amritapuri to Varkala, Kerala, INDIA Today was finally an Active Travel Day again and after more than three weeks in the ashram, I was quite excited to be moving again… Since I was by now used to getting up early, I checked out of the ashram at 6am and tried to […]
Travel Day 956 – Amritapuri Ashram, Kerala, INDIA While my day still revolved a fair bit around the fact that I never finished packing and re-organizing my backpack yesterday, I also couldn’t help and reminisce about my time in the Amritapuri Ashram… Initially I wanted to leave the ashram in the afternoon today while taking […]
Travel Day 955 – Amritapuri Ashram, Kerala, INDIA It was finally time to start packing up my bag and hitting the road again, but since I had to do a little purge of my belongings, this day became finally a Travel Sunday… But first I started my day quite early again with a 4.30am rise […]
Travel Day 954 – Amritapuri Ashram, Kerala, INDIA With Amma gone and with more time on my hand, I decided to join some of the remaining program that I was never able to join before… Participating in the morning Archana was my very first goal and even if I had bought the book a long time […]
Travel Day 953 – Amritapuri Ashram, Kerala, INDIA After saying good-bye to Amma yesterday after the Bhajans, the ashram felt all of a sudden strangely empty… But before I started my day at the ashram, I went for another morning run and this time in the other direction. I was running up the coast first, […]
Travel Day 952 – Amritapuri Ashram, Kerala, INDIA Today I woke up with a strange feeling and after being in the ashram for almost three weeks, I knew exactly what this feeling was. I was feeling restless… The past three weeks had been great at the ashram and I had been doing a lot, learning […]
Travel Day 951 – Amritapuri Ashram, Kerala, INDIA Unfortunately I never managed to see the sunrise after Shivarati as Amma’s dancing ended around 1am and while sitting at the beach and watching the stars, I fell asleep by about 3am… So this morning started obviously rather slowly, but since it was the second to last […]
Travel Day 950 – Amritapuri Ashram, Kerala, INDIA Today was Sunday, it was also the last Darshan day before Amma would go on tour and it was Shivaratri… So far I managed to time my visit in Amritapuri pretty well in terms of being here during the same time as Amma was. But on Wednesday […]
Travel Day 945 to 949 – Amritapuri Ashram, Kerala, INDIA After developing more of a routine feeling in the Ashram, my last couple of days just flew by in no time at all. But a few things that lay beyond my regular routine seemed still worth mentioning… First I went to back to Amma to […]
