Lord Hanuman is a Hindu deity that is representative of safety against evil sprits. Today in India is Lord Hanuman Day, a public holiday across the country. Although we initially felt a little home sick this morning it was great to learn about what is important to the people that surround us. Our roomate is from India but currently lives in Boston, she came back to India to complete her yoga studies in the traditional Indian way. She taught us about Lord Hanuman and we taught her about the meaning of Good Friday. We started the day off by cleansing our sinuses with a neti pot and doing some meditation, then we did some gardening, and ended with a bonfire under a full moon. All in all, an amazing day here in India, despite the sweltering heat.
