Feeding The Soul At The Golden Temple

Stirring the dal at the Golden Temple in Amritsar, IndiaWhen visiting India most people want to try and see the majestic Taj Mahal. Second on their list should be a journey to Amritsar to visit the Sikh holy site, the Golden Temple. What amazed me the most was that such serenity and peacefulness could exist while outside of its gates the cacophony of rickshaws horns and the systematized chaos that is Amritsar and India.  Also, that the langar, the canteen which feeds delicious vegetarian meals to all visitors at most Gurdwaras, operates on such a scale that it feeds anywhere from 20,000 to over 100,000 visitors daily. I wrote about my time there for the online magazine Zester Daily. Click here for the link.
