The India I was disappointed. Maybe my expectations were very high. Other tourists had told me it was a very spiritual place, unlike any other, but come only saw the same as in the rest of Asia: people trying to do business. But the rest of Asia smells much better.
also is a country with many contradictions.
The first major contradiction I saw is to not use his left hand to eat (hand they use to clean their private parts). However, can be used for cooking. So, what you eat to the point right? I would prefer that comierais with both hands and just make my salad with the right hand!
The second major contradiction are the hundreds of cows in the cities. But you can not kill them you can stick with a stick if they come to your place of salesman. You can not eat because they are the sacred, but the country is starving. It is sad and ironic to see cows everywhere and a lot of starving people around who can not eat them.
The third major contradiction is the religious business. Talking about God is great, but talking about money is much better. I do not blame the religion does not eat and these people are poor. Making religion a business is not their fault, but ours.
not stop coming foreigners who want to experience what the author of "Eat, pray and love" lived, they need spiritual guidance, or seeking to find themselves. Then comes an Indian who speaks English, wears a turban and a robe and begins to preach nonsense. As demand increases and the scammers are doing much better marketing the monks you can guess who wins most of the cake. And how expensive is the cake!
Anyway, I think I came with expectations too high, and traveling a bit like going to the movies: the more you expect from a movie more likely you are to disappoint you.
So I think India is a destination to consider if you want to see something culturally different from Europe or the rest of Asia, but it is a culture that I particularly do not I was hooked.
continue the journey!
