Calm, serene RK beach in Vizag

Monsoon has returned to the foothills of Uttarakhand and the upper Ganga basin, turning parched slopes into a living green. new water bodies appear in the meadows and ravines, reflecting a sky heavy with rain; the air fills with the cool, earthy smell, of wet soil and freshly sprouting grass

Clicked this yesterday evening from my nani's village near Neelkanth temple in Yamkeshwar. Right after the rain stopped the clouds just spread across the valley like this. No filter, no edit. Monsoon does something different to these hills honestly.

I often visit the Isha Yoga Centre, a peaceful haven nestled in the lush foothills of the Velliangiri Mountains in Coimbatore. Spread across 150 acres, this spiritual ashram is renowned for its transformative and eco‑friendly environment. Dense tree covers, landscaped gardens, and sacred meditation ponds blend seamlessly to create an atmosphere of serenity. On my last visit, a gentle shower of rain added to the tranquility, making the entire space feel alive and even more consecrated.
