India defies every attempt at definition. You'd run out of ink, or paint or videotape before you'd even begun to find her, let alone capture her. Take the landscape. There are jungles straight out of Rudyard Kipling, deserts to make Lawrence of Arabia weep with envy, the highest mountains in the world, tropical beaches, fading colonial hill stations, crowded cities. Indians are as varied as their landscapes. More than one billion people. Thousands of languages. Almost every religion known to man. And somehow all of it mixed into one vast, raucous and unruly democracy. To make his brand new film The Soul Of India, travel filmmaker Rick Ray spent 4 months in India, braving heat, cold, altitude, earthquakes and riots to patch together a unique and personal tapestry of this nearly indescribable country. We will visit familiar sites like the Taj Mahal, the palaces and forts of Rajasthan, the Himalayas and the River Ganges. We will also peer into an India that few visitors see - a land of villages and inner cities, a country in which reside the hopes and dreams of 1/6th of the earth's population. Our tour will take us to India s bustling cities of Bombay, New Delhi and Calcutta. We will also visit quiet and tranquil landscapes in South India and in the Himalayas. We ll explore the majesty of legendary cities like Varanasi, Agra, Udaipur, Jaipur, Jodhpur, and Jaiselmer. The majesty and mystery of South India will come alive with trips to kerala s famous Backwaters, silk factories, Cochin, Madurai and so much more. We will visit maharaja palaces, visit a camel festival, ride on the luxury Palace On Wheels, and see sides of the Taj Mahal that few ever explore. All of India s religions will be explained in depth, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Christianity, the Jain faith and the Sikh faith. We ll learn how political events have shaped the landscape and how the influence of the British empire brought ideas and concepts still deeply rooted in the Indian psyche today. We ll explore concepts such as the caste system, democracy, marriage, privacy, life and death and see how they differ from our preconceptions in the West. India is a challenge to the senses, to the mind and to everything we in America take for granted. If you come to terms with her nearly infinite diversity, her stunning vitality and her in-your-face energy, you will learn a great deal about yourself. In the process, you will learn a great deal about the rest of humanity. Once you have glimpsed the kaleidoscope of color, the encyclopedia of experience that is India, you'll probably agree that you have discovered the most colorful and fascinating country on earth.Director: Rick Ray DVD: NTSC Company: Rick Ray Films (2001-01-01) List Price: $29.95 Amazon Price: $26.50 Used Price: $27.00

Mention India to some people and you’ll hear, “Dirty, filthy, people dying in the streets, beggars, terrible food. Why would you want to go there?”Because...India is one of the most colorful countries in the world with unimaginable sights, and friendly people.

Eliminate hassles in India by following these travel tips before joining the 17.9 million foreign tourists who arrived in 2010, to have a safe, and exciting, trip to India.

INDIA BITES YOU SOMEHOW - TRUE-LIFE TALES of 40 Westerners Discovering the Sacred Within the Chaos of One Magnificent CountryWill your next step lead you to nirvana or land you in cow dung? INDIA BITES YOU SOMEHOW is a rollicking collection of true stories that take you deep into the heart of the magical, mysterious Indian experience. Forty people from nineteen countries share their journeys -- both worldly and sacred -- from the 1960s to the present, where they encountered such questions as… Should I follow the yogi into the jungle to pursue man-eating tigers? Should I give this persistent, maimed child even more rupees? Dare I punch the porter who just pinched me on the behind, or argue with the government official who refuses to extend my visa? Is this guru really enlightened? Will I survive this tsunami rushing toward me? Will I ever be able to get off the toilet? These narratives – moving, terrifying, hilarious, awe-inspiring -- were recorded by the holy mountain Arunachala in South India, considered by many to be the most powerful place on Earth. It is also where the great sage of the 20th century, Ramana Maharshi, lived for most of his life. Both Mountain and sage have had a profound influence on teachers in the past as well as many present well-known spiritual teachers today. If you have been to India, you might recognize yourself in these pages. If you would like to come to India, this is advance warning, but with lots of encouragement. If you know you’ll never make it to India, this will take you deep into its essence, minus the scary microbes. And you will find out why, as one Canadian woman says, “Anything is possible in India! It really is! You might go crazy in the process, but it is possible!” Author: Kai Mayerfeld Kindle Edition: 280 pages Kindle eBook Company: Kai Mayerfeld (2011-09-01) (2011-09-01) List Price: $2.99 Amazon Price:

India is in transition. Since the publication of Culture Smart’s first guide to India in 2003, it has been transformed from a developing, third-world country into the world’s fastest growing economy. Today, a huge, confident, emerging middle class is exporting technology, brains, and enterprise to the rest of the world. At the same time, young Indians educated abroad are returning home to take advantage of the new opportunities, bringing Western expectations and lifestyles with them. The impact of all this wealth-creation, modernity, and individualism on the timeless values and ancient caste structures of India is beginning to be felt well beyond the great cities, adding yet another facet to the giant kaleidoscope of Indian society.This completely new and up-to-date volume by American author Becky Stephens is unrivalled. It highlights the many subtle and not so subtle changes that are taking place in Indian society, describes and explains those areas of life where traditional attitudes and practices continue to prevail, and offers original insights, practical tips, and vital human information to guide you through the pitfalls and delights of this complex, vibrant, and increasingly important country.

Erin Reese is a one-of-a-kind travel writer—a spiritual seeker and solo backpacker who dropped out of a successful career in corporate America, hit the road, and never looked back.A SPIRITUAL TRAVELER'S SASSY TALE Packed with plenty of spicy curry, cows, and comedy, Bindi Girl takes us on one heck of a wild ride across India. From Dharamsala and the Dalai Lama to ashrams, yoga schools, and meditation melodramas, Bindi educates and entertains as she goes. We discover the Hindu deities, the tourist trap mafia, and the beach havens of the hippie trail. From “Guru Disney” to the holy hell of Varanasi, Bindi’s got us clamoring for more masala chai all the way. When Bindi meets an attractive young stranger who is more than her mental and physical match, her fiery spirit is put to the test. He whisks her off to the furthest reaches of India—the Andaman Islands in the Bay of Bengal. There, in an isolated jungle, they attempt to live out a Robinson Crusoe fantasy. Will it be the Garden of Eden or end up a natural disaster? Among the wild beauty and danger of the islands and the kooky madness of “typical India,” Reese takes us deep into the heart of a country and her very self. Bindi Girl is a gift to the traveler, the spiritual seeker, and the armchair tourist—anyone yearning for honest inspiration and a real kick to get out and truly live! PRAISE FOR THE ADVENTURES OF BINDI GIRL “Lovely, lyrical, gentle, and informative. It made my world bigger.” ~ James Fadiman, author of The Psychedelic Explorer’s Guide and editor of Essential Sufism “Erin Reese ‘gets’ the spirit of India. In reading her adventures, I could almost hear the crowds and smell the curry. But more than that, I felt blessed by the soulfulness of half-a-dozen millennia. Erin was born to be in India — and to write this book.” ~ Victoria Moran, author of Creating a Charmed Life and Shelter for the Spirit “‘Milk-coming-out-of-your-nose’ hilarious at times, and heartrending naked revelation at others, Reese takes us along on her unsentimental spiritual journey through India as she fearlessly follows her heart through worlds few travelers experience. Bindi Girl is a must-read for anyone who yearns to travel within and without, and who is not afraid to be transformed in the process.” ~ Pamela Lund, author of Massively Networked “Erin goes places, physically and metaphorically, few travelers dare to go. Her stories amuse, outrage, inspire and provoke. This isn’t the tale of someone who received a book advance jetting off business class for a few weeks in an ashram. This is third class train, steerage class ship, with a dash of indulgence thrown in. Erin is a gifted, special writer, and she’s the real deal as a traveler.” ~ Lynn Braz, editor and travel writer featured in The Dallas Morning News “It’s like Eat, Pray, Love — with teeth.” ~ Jessica Shepherd, author of A Love Alchemist’s Notebook “Reese reports on an India few outsiders get to witness — not the Goa parties or tourist sites or political turmoil, no. Instead she dives into the throbbing spiritual centre of India and tries to place her California soul amongst the gurus, mystics and visionaries that remain a constant of Indian religion. Yet Reese is no New Age tourist full of cosmic waffle. Her writing is both beautifully descriptive and very funny. She captures the sweaty heat of India, its madness and charm. Her own spiritual quest mixes with her lusts and frustrations to create a new kind of travel writing. If I ever return to India it will be with Bindi Girl as my guide.” ~ Garth Cartwright, author of Princes Amongst Men: Journeys with Gypsy Musicians and More Miles than Money: Journeys through American Music “Reese’s nitty-gritty India travelogue shows an intense, all-or-nothing commitment to a lifelong spiritual path. This memoir shows vulnerability, respect, and gumption. A must-read for any would-be traveler. ‘Jai Ma!’” ~ Alicia Dattner, comedian, Eat, Pray, Laugh!
