TRIP TO INDIA – Where it all begins, where the divine is in everyday and gestures of people

Visiting India, you need to remember the Vitruvian’s man, a perfectly proportioned man (created by Leonardo da Vinci), correlating the symmetry of human anatomy to the symmetry of the universe. What you see, hear, eat and feel, it’s all inside Meeting Benches way: the Vitruvian approach to life. “Namastè”, greet and smile to those you meet, because your horizon will be bigger. A magical universe of people and landscapes, India, one that you can start to see using a “tuk-tuk”, a rickshaw or hiring a car (Reaffirm where you want to go, contracted price, payment day if you use a car). Two tips: go see a movie of “Bollywood” and make at least one trip by train (but you will need to book well ahead of time).

When you are invited to the home of an Indian friend, do not forget to remove your shoes on entering the house. Talking, you will find that the Indians are curious and gentle, but it is better not to photograph women who wash the sources. Visiting Punjab, discover an unusual (which depends on the increase of your charm): people ask you to take a picture with them, to share the dream of your life. http://www.delhitourism.gov.in/delhitourism/index.jsp Visiting a Hindu temple, after removing your shoes, you can not enter the “Garbhagriha” (the room that houses the image of a deity), but you can live the special atmosphere around you, dancing and singing. When you enter a temple sikkh, remember to cover your head. Certainly, before leaving you bought something, finding that the bargaining of the price is a nice game, where you can pretend to go away without buying anything.
