The lake

As I said in my previous blog pushkar is a to find peace and spirituality. My spiritual journey started since 5:40am in morning when the humming of prayers filled my ears with peace and pleasure. The enchanting music and the view of articles was so sooting and gripping that for some was just out of my zone. In evening I walked my head to the Veraha ghat which was very popular for it's evening Arti. Aarti was preformed by the temple preists. The whole experience was surreally calm. You can always find rituals happening at the same on most of the ghats.

I stayed a Mama Luna hotel for about 4day/3nights. My hotel was located very close to the lake. The hotel was not too lavishing but it was a extremely great deal at 300rs

A SHORT HIKE TO SAVITRI TEMPLE.
After attending early morning Arti at Brahma temple. The whole place was packed with people at that early in morning it was around 5am on my watch. Once the Arti was completed. I headed toward Savitri temple. The Savitri temple was situated at the peak of a mountain so you to hike for about an hour to reach the peak of the mountain. I reached there before the sunrise and the view of the sunrise was marvelous. The breeze at the top of the mountain was very fresh and soothing. While hiking I encountered with plenty of monkeys and langoor they even snitched away my bottle of coke.

CHAOS ON THE STREETS
Even though pushkar was a colourful town, enriched with culture and tradition. I enjoyed all the hustle and bustle happening the street of the pushkar. The Rajasthani people invited me to check out there shop and food. I really enjoyed the kesar milk which is served at streets in night.
