Some of those churches are beautiful, I remember some from a yellowing volume of Books of knowledge, and one in the evening sunlight, all sleep deprived and running on low, in wash, a lace-like feel to the view.

You actually had to get down on your hands and knees to get down through the entrance.<BR/><BR/>I struggled with the idea of being a "tourist" of another cultures's religion. I was there just to watch, but was coaxed by an Indian couple to receive a blessing from the priest. "The gods won't mind?"
