Trip to Hogenakkal Falls [Mini Niagara]….

Image
After completing a nice trip of Coorg with best buddies, it was the time to spend a rocking week end with colleagues (would like to say friends).We planed to visit Skandhagiri (Kalavarahalli betta).This place is well known for its height, we can touch clouds from the top of this hill. This place is around 90 km from silicon city. So we planed to leave Bengaluru by night and reach the trekking point by early morning. Pavan told that we can reach top of hill in 2hrs.We thought it would be grate that we witness the Sunrise. My friend Pavan took initiative and asked one of his friends about the place. But we got disappointing news from his friend that trekking was not allowed in the Skandhagiri. Forest department was not allowing trekking now days. None of us wants to drop the trip so we planned another naturally beautiful place where we can see the different form of nature. Calmly flowing river and another one is with highly aggressive at the point of falls. Yes the place is known as Hog

Fasting..!!!

Most of us like to eat different types of tasty food. Some times we over load over machine (Stomach, as the energy to our body is generated from here) when we found tasty food. But our stomach will not be able to digest all the food fully. Due to this we may get different problems, like gastric problem etc… Fasting a day in a week could be one of the remedies for such problem. At the time of fasting our body uses stored fats as the source of energy. By this our circulatory system will be improved. Taking this into consideration our ancient people started fasting on different occasions like “Ekadashi”, “Shivaratri” etc. Another reason behind the fasting on such occasions is, we can concentrate our mind more with empty stomach. This is the same reason behind doing Yoga with empty stomach. Fating doesn’t mean leaving food and eating more fruits and snacks, but it should be in limit. What ever it may be it is good to fast at lea

Trip to Madikeri /Coorg [ Heaven on earth].

Wat a great week end we had….!!!! It was pre-planed almost 1 month back that we will enjoy the Beauty of nature in Coorg unlimitedly for 2 days. We left the silicon city by 11:30 pm on 31st October and reached “Kashmir of South ” on 1 November by 5:30AM. From Madikeri we left to pre-booked cottage “Crystal-Cottage” which is situated at around 3km from Murnadu (this place is 18km from Madikeri). We reached cottage by 6:15 in the morning. As the environment was full of fog Sun rays were trying to give the golden touch to the leaves covered with the mist. I felt this place like a Heaven and tried to capture some of these wonderful moments in my little camera. Some of my friends were enjoying the natures beauty and some are getting ready for the next journey. After having Madikeri's special Breakfast “Akki Rotti (Rice Roti), Kadabu, Honey, Coconut Chatni” in the cottage, we left to visit our pre planned places.
