After a complicated lengthy check in at the Ashram, I got the nicest room with all amenities including filtered water from the machine just outside my door, 5:00 am came early so I skipped chai and went directly to the big tent for led primary with Sharat, then we were treated to a Ganesh Homa ceremony on the sacred Ganga (Ganesha being the remover of obstacles) followed by a nice vegetarian breakfast, then hit the streets to shop and sight see, found the Beatle’s favorite shop @ Rishikesh
