On the last day of February 2006 Year 6 took the coach
to Letchmoor Heath near Watford and Bhaktivedanta Manor, the English home of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness |
|
|
 |
| It was a beautify sunny day. | We all got in the ox cart.... |
|
 |
| and were taken across the fields... | to the Cow Shed. |
|
 |
|
Then we saw the sources of renewable energy.. |
the wind turbine and the solar panels. |
|
 |
| We looked around the gardens | which were very peaceful. |
|
 |
|
We saw a special ox cart for processions |
... before going in doors. |
|
|
| There we were shown how the Hindus practice meditation and tried it for ourselves. | |
|
 |
| Then it was time to try out some traditional ways of Hindu dressing... | |
|
|
| including dressing as some of the Hindu gods. | |
|
 |
|
|
| For some reason some of the boys though this was the best bit of the day! | |
|
|
|
| The girls tried on some traditional Indian Sarees | |
|
|
|
Here we are, dressed for action!
Finally, before leaving, we visited the Shrine. |
|
|
|
|
It
had been an interesting visit and certainly helped us understand our Hindu friends better. |
