I'd say you succeeded in sharing the experience of the day, Douglas. I feel like I am living vicariously and I'm laughing and weeping at the same time. Thank you and all the poonai!

I love this so much! I’m so excited to read this story. I have goosebumps. I love the darkness and the magic of electricity ⚡️ turning on.

So grateful to take this journey with you -the culminating head shaving, Luke’s soul full contemplation, and accompanied wild playful run into the ocean.with Tessa for that after blessing ritual bathing. Patricia, that well merited 4 foot wave crashing feeling of care for your beloved... the shared 100,000 fold full on sari ocean blessing -Patricia and Laura, whoever else went in I’m right there in spirit-so many blessings to witness vicariously.

The elephant blessing and his shaved head. Brilliant! And next stop the fish eyed beloved Meenakshi! 🧜🏼‍♀️🛕
