Experiences

This holiday has been unlike any other.The ashram life and excursions introduced us to the Indian spiritual tradition, the Indian people and their way of living. It touched us deeply and made an everlasting impression on us. In fact this was not a holiday, it was an experience that greatly enriched our lives until this day.

After two tours to India organised by Purnima, one to the North from Varanasi to the Himalayan mountains, the other to the South from the Arabian See to the Golf of Bengal, we are happy to comment on the qualities of the organisation of these travels which enabled us to discover India in its most colourful aspects: sunny landscapes, motley and noisy crowd, kindness of the population, the subtlety of its music and the most profound aspects of its ageless spirituality.

I discovered Northern India through and thanks to Purnima Zweers and will never forget the impact this had on me.
The magic of the images, the smells, the smiles and the scenery all helped to bring to the surface old memories stored deeply in the cells of my unconsciousness… From Delhi to Agra, Varanasi (Benares), Hardwar, Rishikesh and Uttarkashi on the way to Gangotri (source of the Ganges), Purnima was instrument to help us discover what one cannot see on a tradional tour. We attended private “satsangs” with special Swamis, we were able to experience ashramlife, we entered unusual sacred temples and even participated in a Shiva puja with a pujari (priest) in the inner sanctorum, which will remain for me an unforgetable memory!!!
Added to this were private concerts, Indian music concert on a boat on the Ganges as well as daily meditations; every day was a teaching, a new experiment, a discovery and deep links were woven.
The only thing I regret is that I am not able to participate in the South India tour which Purnima will organise next year.
