EnglishIndia, Foothills of the Himalayas, First part
Spiritual journey in North India, in the eighties, looking for Advaita vada
Almora 1
I invite you at Almora, in the footsteps of Adi Shankara.
Almora 2
Charming village in the foothills of the Himalayas,
Almora 3
Almora is at the crossroads of many ancient pilgrimages:
Almora 4
We will follow one together, in a minute.
Almora 5
In fact, all this journey is a pilgrimage,
Almora 6
A return to spiritual sources,
Almora 7
Those of Advaita Vadanta.
Almora 8
We will contemplate its wonders,
Almora 9
Even at the monsoon !
Nuages 1
Let us begin with clouds:
Nuages 2
There our head
Nuages 3
Will receive the crown
Nuages 4
And our neck the scarf!
Nuages 5
Let us be overcome by this sea
Nuages 6
Who submerges our mind.
Nuages 7
Above all, let's avoid the drug trap:
Nuages 8
Artificial paradises are hell!
Nuages 9
They destroy our spiritual energy
Nuages 10
And make us slaves ...
Nuages 11
Let's follow Master Shankara,
Nuages 12
And learn mastering the mental tiger.
Sat Tal 1
Then take the pilgrim's staff;
Sat Tal 2
The road leads us to Sat Tal:
Sat Tal 3
Seven emerald lakes encased in greenery
Sat Tal 4
Seven wonders to contemplate
Sat Tal 5
To forget the world
Sat Tal 6
And prepare ourselves for the aim of the pilgrimage.
Sat Tal 7
How calm
Sat Tal 8
This water is !
Sat Tal 9
How serene !
Sat Tal 10
But already, we have to go ahead,
Sat Tal 11
To dive back into life
Sat Tal 12
And take the road again ...
Jageshwar 1
And here we are
Jageshwar 2
At the Jageshwar temples
Jageshwar 3
124 wonders from the 7th to the 12th centuries!
Jageshwar 4
Here we are at the goal of this pilgrimage:
Jageshwar 5
Let's go into Shiva's house,
Jageshwar 6
He has been waiting for us for millennia.
Jageshwar 7
And He prepared the doors
Jageshwar 8
That we must pass one by one
Jageshwar 9
To reach Moksha, Deliverance.
Jageshwar 10
These doors are those of Knowing
Jageshwar 11
And every one can not cross them:
Jageshwar 12
Some will remain closed forever
Jageshwar 13
For those who do not have the key
Jageshwar 14
Gived by Adi Shankara:
Jageshwar 15
Non-dualism
Jageshwar 16
Between jivâtma and Âtma.
