, the atmosphere is humid and dense.spent the day traveling to a Shiva temple, called Shiva hill and there lives a Baba that is truly enlightened and also in the middle of a development that would make a Los Angeles high rise parking structure look tiny. The Baba lived in a cave at te top of a hill covered in giant granite boulders. for tens of kilometers there was nothing but gentle farmland and small villages. every full moon the folks from near and far would come to walk to the top of the hill and receive Babas blessing. a following of devotees grew around him. then one day two years ago, they decided to build an ashram around the top of the mountain. 7 stories high it encloses all of the temple, cave and top of the hill and looks like a giant parking structure in the middle of nowhere. we wandered through the debris of construction, worshipping at Ganesha and Kali and Shiva shrines. In the temple on top was a deep and wonderful Shiva that was so powerful you could barely stand in its presence. outside we saw Baba, tall and heavy hair matted and white spun around his head, wearing only a soiled loincloth, cell phone to his ear, giving darshan, we knelt reverently and he motioned it was time to eat. we went down ate some rice and then went to the bottom floor of the monstrosity and sat before his ancient cave and meditated. the energy rose from my left side and swept through me like a brilliant fire. In the space of twenty minutes i was engulfed and vibrating. my system was like an atomic reaction, in a nuclear power plant, generating force. as we drove the 130 km back i went into deep meditations awaking only when my beloved mountain came into view Arunachala Arunachala, my beloved Shiva AUM NAMAH SIVAYAH.
