Sunrise at Camp Shama in Kumaon mountains
Sunrise in Kumaon mountains overlooking Ramganga river

Each morning during our stay at Camp Shama in Kumaon mountains, was an experience which was full of delight, curiosity and a sense of fulfilment. No other meditation was required. Looking at the horizon from early morning around 5 a.m. for the next two hours was sheer bliss. The early morning soft rays of the sun would light up the mountain tops one by one and then enter the valley to show the river hidden in the night blanket. When you start seeing the river, it is morning and time for chai.
