A Discovery Of Ancient Indian Culture Through Zrii

Flying into New Delhi is not necessarily a luxurious experience. After the much awaited passport stamp, I was guided down a long pathway completely surrounded by hoards of people. Any travel agent would advise you to keep a careful watch on your bags and avoid eye contact with all beggars-warning that if you disregard this advice you will unavoidably find yourself surrounded by dozens of starving, homeless children that won’t leave your side until you’ve surrendered money. It’s quite an environment to behold, and still my mind frequently wanders back to my own three-week stay in India, baffled by the wonder of its ancient culture that is now so often labeled by this pitiful, chaotic scene.
