moved on to nagpur, central india for a week, then back to north india, where the dhammachakra sangha was busy organizing subhuti's tour. i met with some dhamma mitras in delhi who are creating a right livelihood business model, encouraging one another to study foreign languages, such as german and korean, and building a tour company that offers ethical travel packages to westerners. their specialty is tours to sacred buddhist sites, and will include accurate buddhist history, an opportunity to meditate and do puja with local buddhists, and a discussion on dr. ambedkar and the revival of buddhism in modern india. also visited some north indian villages, outside delhi.

took a late night flight out of delhi the next day after a supper of dosas and time with friends singing songs and drinking tea. at the airport i got upgraded to business class, so it was an easy journey.i felt sad leaving, but also happy to be home, and, of course, eager to return soon to india.
