Be. Here. Now.

Pahar Ganj Market Bazaar - New Delhi, India

Ram Dass was right. Be. Here. Now. You have to be in the moment in India. Otherwise a tuk-tuk will run into you, a motorcycle will knock you off your feet, a taxi will flatten you, a car driven by a madman will mow you down, a cycle rickshaw will graze you, a pickpocket will rob you, an eager shopkeeper will assault you, pedestrians will push you out of the way and beggars will tear at your clothes as well as your heart. If you’re on a train or a bus, then anything goes. Just get out of the way. Shove or be shoved. Your survival depends upon being in the moment. And that goes for just about any place or any time in one’s life. Be. Here. Now.
