Changes

India is a goddess. Don't expect to be more than a speck resting on her varied garb. Also don't underestimate the value of this position. If you are hoping to see the world from a different angle, going to the other side of it is a good start; India's people, religions, cities, and fantastic geography do the rest.  If you're really interested in going, but for some reason or the other, can't go, you should read this book to get a sense of what true India is really like: Malgudi Days by R.K. Narayan (available in Sawyer). Its a collection of short stories based in the mythical village of Malgudi in India, but its really representative of the rural charm of the sub-continent.....if you can imagine yourself in a different setting while reading fiction, this is a book you MUST read!
