Namaste!

Hahahaa hoo oho hahah ha.... We are joining a laughter meditation class and are trying to aim consciousness by laughing our ass off. After end session we continue with shaking meditation and in the end, dancing meditation. All of the above with psychedelic Indian trance music to get into the vibe. The rule is not to think at all, but let your body express itself in any way it wishes to. And it sure is FUN! I loved this meditation style instantly. My body was moving in ways I didn't know possible, following the non existing rhythms in the music.

From the blue city of Udaipur we move to the sand coloured city, Jaisalmer. This city is in the desert and it is surrounded by an enormous desert fort. From this city we do a 2 day camel safari into the desert. I have been waiting for this for so long. Ever since Sawai Madaphur where I saw the first camels walking around in the streets (apparently the city were George Lucas got his inspiration for star wars), I have been fascinated about this beautiful creature. It was simply amazing to sit on it for the first time. They told me the name of my camel was Lula, but I instantly named her TJU-BANG! As the only one in the group, the camel driver chose me to do a little free style, learning me how to drive my own camel while everyone else was going in a line after each other tied together by a rope. I surely loved that! I rode through the desert by myself in my own tempo, sometimes missing my group completely, but with TJU-BANGs nose, we were always able to find the way back. What a feeling of freedom being alone in the desert! We slept in the sand dunes with blankets. Wauw, I tell you, those stars were shining so clear in the dark sky. It was such a fantastic and memorable trip.
