The best part to sleep in night is that the quality. I have been working in a night shift from a long time therefore for me it was an advantage to make the most out of the time.
I woke up quite early and moved ahead towards my journey.The ride from Sukher to Mount Abu was beautiful and mesmerizing. The whole place seemed to be surrounded by Aravali Hills, I could not see anything except Greenlands and small houses at a suitable distance. I was into the beauty of road and surroundings and thought this is the most beautiful road in have even seen my life not know in future I will be seeing the better one.
Few km before the Melar toll I found a hidden Lake and surprisingly no one there except a small hut in which two ladies were making foods and a small kid. They offered me the food even though they had little. Drops of tears was about to come when i said good bye to them handing little kid 100 Rs. I realised this whole trip is purifying my soul nad making me more receptive towards the world.
On my way I saw a mountain bigger and taller I have ever seen in my life which was half hidden in the clouds. It tempted me to ride fast and catch it. For a moment I was like a child who is eagerly waiting for his surprise gift.
My decision proved worthy Mount Abu was undoubtedly beautiful for me. The way to the top was even more mesmerizing when I looked at the roads which was submerged in the water. Perhaps the govt decided to make it and then the whole plan went wrong so it was left incomplete. The view reminded me of Anaconda movie where I had seen forest taking over the man made things.
First I took some rest at honeymoon point where I saw a beautiful horse whom I wanted to ride but didn't have money. The Jain temple and the small village Auriya. The whole place looked like an isolated island on earth, untouched from the society.
I had always dreamt of these kind of place. Lush green, palm trees, few people and lot of beauty. I decided to stay in the village and for that I needed to find a place where I could sleep. I saw a school and decided to teach children's therefore I went to the principal who unfortunately was not present that day. Plan got failed. I met with few children's who were on their way to homes and took some photos.
Most of the people suggested me to visit the temple of Dattatreya but I decides not go there after looking at the dark clouds hovering over me. I was desperately looking for a place to sleep.
There was a hotel by the name of lake view where couple of boys sitting along with the some customers who were drinking some antique looking wine. I presume they were from Gujrat. Since the liquor is ban in Gujarat these men were taking benefit of the advantage.One of them gulped down the 2 pegs literally in 2 min. I was in awe. I have never seen someone drinking like this. Perhaps my capacity is not that much high. I decided to leave the place.
The man who were selling prasad outside the Ambaji temple lied to me. The famous temple was about to close when I reached there. I heard the sound of whistle I could do nothing except Run or else loose the opportunity to pay my visit to Devi. Which I was not in mood to. Trust me ot not, I ran like a wind jumped over the people, crossed the line and finally I reached there when the priest was about to close the door. I requested him to accept my offerings, he did not look convinced. I told him I am from delhi which I believed changed his mind
I am not sure but it is believed everywhere in India that only the few get chance to visit the holy temple only if devi calls him.
Finally in evening I stayed at the dhaba and requested Kaka who was the owner of it to sleep there. He had a son who I suppose was doing engineering from a reputed college in Banglore looked like me.
Kaka was Karnataka when i told him that I would be going there he sat beside me to talk but unfortunately had to go because the customers were all over the place requesting food
Tough day I do not remember when I slept
