    Gabriel takes us to a different point in time when hinduism was deeply ingrained in the ethos of India. Perhaps it is his aura,or his knowledge and the manner in which he articulates it. Thank you for the amazing six weeks in India❤

    Hi Gabriel, a wonderful trip really getting into seeing more every time you visit and seeing things you haven't seen and people pointing out what you should see. I bet since you first visited India it has grown immensely and changed proportionally all over the country it must be one of the fastest-growing countries in the world. India has a very diverse culture a blending of past and present with many advances as the country changes and grows exponentially. A beautiful and rewarding place with boundless energy and excitement.

    Dear Gabriel - the Narmada is very sacred to many, and your endeavor is deeply meaningful.
    The Narmada hydroelectric project has seen a resistance movement which is ongoing for some 30 years. Narmada Bachao Andolan (Save the Narmada Movement). Only 2 months ago the raised water levels inundated villages downstream...this is an ongoing nightmare for the people.
    Eyesore indeed, and more...

    Great video, Gabe. We just arrived in Ahmedabad and are loving it so far, a huge contrast to Varanasi in terms of traffic, pollution etc and we’re excited to explore. Ate at the night market yesterday evening, which was epic.
    The monkey-goat interaction reminds me that those interspecies relationships are not always so benign. On Sandwip Island in Bangladesh I stayed at an inn where there was a monkey chained to a tree in the courtyard. The oppressed had become an oppressor, as he had somehow grabbed a cat and was using the poor animal for his gratification. Disturbing!

    Hello Gabriel
    You had a lot of fun in India 👍
    A bit of explanation to the words Maheshwar and Omkareshwar....
    God in sanskrit means Eshwar
    The great one means Maha.
    So Maheshwar means The Great God.
    Omkar means Om sound.
    And hence Omkareshwar means God of Om sound. Lord Shiva is referred to as Omkareshwar.
    Looking forward to your new adventures in a new country.....

      @@angelawhitehead6187 "Kar" comes from the word Aakar, meaning 'form'
      In this context, it means the deity having the form of Om. Lord Ganesha (Son of Lord Shiva) is also referred to as Omkara. But Omkareshwar is another name for Lord Shiva.

    Back in 2012, I stayed a couple of weeks at the anandamayii ma ashram on the island of omkareshwar. Its an authentic place indeed, though the massive dam on narmada is a doozie. I remember bang lassie being sold on the mainland side of town and the only other western traveler was a russian lady with an x-visa living in India with a 100 dollar allowance from her relatives.

    I think those people with grains were actually "pilgrims". they basically go around the river Narmada. starting from where the river started and going where the river ends in the sea. they don't take anything with them, so they solicit for food.

The most interesting ones are the fort with a city in it and exquisitely carved marble Jain temples, Himalayas, Ladakh, and all places you showed in Rajasthan, MP. Lets say all places were interesting.

    ‘NAHI Hindi.’ 😂 that was cute, when they see an energy and the energy can’t speak the language! They get perplexed… ‘Hindu mythology,’ has ‘stories’ of Vishnu and sometimes Shiva taking the other’s ‘ruup’ face:avatar and doing mischievous 😏 thangs, the very reason when Shiva’s energy can get fire against Vishnu’s because Vishnu be crazy mischievous…
    That guy in the starting of the videohe wanted you to eat, ‘bhojan.’ I know quite a few who carry RH- blood 😬
    Om is the sound of creation and destruction with sustenance in the middle I.e trinity of creation sustenance and destruction, the sound/ vibration of GOD. Jyotirlinga: light emitting ‘phallus/lingam,’ the eminence of creation.
    You’re into Greek/egyptian ‘mythology,’ so it is like ‘Osiris’ 😊 I am writing ‘heavily controversial’ stuff for people care so I should write, IMO.
    15:54 that music reminded me of the Ark of the covenant 😉 Look into ‘dewali puja’ of the warrior clans of Himalayan foothills 🐐😏
    Certain people carry the energy of the ark in their body, there are even ‘certain’ ‘woman,’ who carry the energy of GOD 😏😉😇, the Himalayas are quite the place , of course you know better, you’ve trekked/scaled mountains there.
