INDIA TRIP ENDORSEMENTS

“You could not find another guide to the sacred sites of south India who combines the scholarship, passion, articulate speech, and sense of fun that come so naturally to Andrew Harvey. Experienced through his eyes the ancient temples and art devoted to Shiva live again. This was the trip of a lifetime.”

“The pilgrimage in south India led by Andrew Harvey was an enlightening experience that far exceeded my expectations. First, I was deeply impressed by the Indian people, who in spite of relative crowding and poverty consistently exhibit a loving, friendly, and magnanimous spirit. (We in the West have much to learn from these, our Eastern brothers, and sisters.) Second, we were deeply immersed in spiritual experiences including readings, discussions, visits to museums, libraries, churches or temples, ashrams, and communities. For me, the result was heightened awareness of the common threads between all faiths and real progress and breakthroughs in my own spiritual path. The pilgrimage was of incalculable value and enjoyment.”

“I tell people – if India calls to you, go. You will find there is mystery there, mystery and magic in South India – in her sages, rituals, and temples; in her art, music, and people; in her rivers, flowers, and beaches. If India calls to you, go, I say. You will be moved by her; you may be cracked open by her; you will never forget her. If India calls to you, go. Go with someone who knows her and loves her.
Andrew Harvey knows India, loves India; he grew up there; India is in his bones, in his blood. India is his home.
I hear South India calling my name; I’m going back to her, and I’m going again with Andrew Harvey to hear again soul’s song, soul’s story, soul’s sojourn as Andrew sings and illuminates it.”
