A visit to Pondicherry

The long awaited item in my wishlist has now passed on to be fulfilled.
2 days of journey to Pondicherry was a mixed experience.
The hot sun attempted to dampen our plans to see places but our spirits made a way to fight the humid air and fiery sun to explore the city.
A beach walk in the evening, a visit to the french colony, five minutes of silence observed in Samadhi of Mother and Sri Aurobindo, awesome food in some of the french styled restaurant, beautifully sculpted art materials and crafts on display, book stores, bakeries, photo studios, jewelry on display, incense sticks and ashram made products for sale in the nearby stores offered to please my senses.
I would remember some of those things for a lifetime, it has become part of me. A search for divinity, peace and meaning beyond our current existence is what I experienced in spiritual hub of India.
