Blake

To see a world in a grain of sand, And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour. William Blake, from "Auguries of Innocence"

A Night of A Hundred Sitars

Dear Daughter,

Last Friday, Papa went to the Meenakshi temple and there were musicians there inside the temple with over 100 sitars! The sitar is a stringed instrument like our guitars, but you play them sitting down and across your lap. There were also some Tabla players, which are the small, Indian drums that you like to listen to. It was an amazing experience.







Here are some pictures, and when I get back, I will show you the videos I made so that you can also hear them!

I love you,

Papa
