My House from Jogiwara road (yellow building right middle)
Now I have returned from Dharamsala and the bustle of mad hot Delhi . I had to make sure I got out as there were riots on the outskirts of the city and I was'nt so sure I would make it , the Gujjars (a tribal group) were fighting for recognition from their government . But I got through , unfortunately my camera batteries where out so I could'nt catch the wild and screaming protesters as we drove past their burning effigies.
(Only joking ) .........But they did actually talk and come to a resolution as I left in the taxi . It seems that my timing was good.
From Zero point
As for Perth ... well here it is . The birds are chirping outside and the sea is ever present for me to walk upon like Jesus did . After coming back I had so much energy I could fly across the sands , I was running for a hundred meters and just amazed myself . When was the last time I did that ???
It is a bit strange being here after all the human contact I had in India . Because all of a sudden it is vanished in the totality of spaciousness or a solitary quietness.I have taken the task of minding a mean looking Rottweiler who is very kind .I am taking her for long walks.Yes this is my lot for Karma Yoga ! I found myself in a house by the sea , a big empty house with a lap top to play plenty of movies .
Being surrounded by this space is overwhelming at first and even bringing up some dreadful feelings in the morning . Reading Ranjit Maharaj; he says you have to make it dance on your little finger . "Take the world as a joke, your joke. Then make that joke dance on your little finger ". So From high up in India to sea level ! Nice to see the sea again and to walk on the coast .

Dharamsala view from Bagsu Road .
HH. Dalai Lama Coming and Going
I had to take some parting shots . Here are some of the images I left behind before the descent into the Delhi heat . I found that once I arrived there it was not as bad as I thought it would be , I had some resilience that I had from previous journeys when I lived in the Lucknow heat , which can be appalling .
