In touch with Indian

There is something really bad about getting to and out of Jaipu which is our next destination after Agra. Reason? Train delay, as usual.

Delayed train to Jaipu force us to spend four more hours on the transportation. GOSH...............
and the worst is when we want to leave Jaipu for Jodhpur, where i am standing, the train was delayed from 11am to 4pm!!!!!!!!!! 6 hours delay!!!!!!!!!!! Can u believe that??????????????

So, we have to rush to buy another train ticket to Jodhpur at 2pm and getting on the train in great hurry and hassle. Luckily, there is a trade-off as we can experience a very local indian travel expereience, ie travel in a NonClass train car with layman indian.

Thanks to that, we four really have an opportunity to really have a good time with indian guys on the train.

While my fds are talking to an old indian man on the topic like indian number etc. A 22 yrs old guys ask me about the sitting matter(coz we don have seat, we gotta stand all the journey) and we started a conversation about Hindulism, Islam, Patisken, India, Arranged Marriage, Sex etc topic. It's always a pleasure to talk to local people.

As I am starting to get fascinated for Hindulism. my first question to Anoop is "do u belive in Hindulism?" The 22 years old, now working in a large scale company for engineering position told me, yes he is.

As he told me Hindulism is like a Philiosophy rather than a religion. There will not be any rule to follow, rather it's like kind of practise or way of life you are pursuing. The ultimate goal is pursue the supeme power and turn yourself into a God. Sounds like Buddlism? yes, coz the latter one comes from the earlier one.

Frank, due to his indian accent, i can't really understand his explanation on why Islam and Hindulism cannot work out to be a united India, as Gandhi advocated.

But, He did told me a lot of funny thing on Indian marriage and romance life. It's interesting to hear they are still looking for astrology to see whether the couple match to each other when comes to marriage, and Anoop told me if the sign doesn't mateh, he will abandon the proposed marriage. More to share with your guys later.

The most memorable thing would be he is quite determined and clear about what he is doing now, making money, move upward in the society, so marriage comes later

By the way, the night in Jaipur, we went to watch a Bollywood movie called "Don", it's kind of 007+Jackie Chan+Matrix(outlook)+tons of HK movie element+typical bollywood dancing sequence. Guess how is it??????????????? haha. Well dancing sequence is amazing, and most importantly, the Gals are first-rated indian gal!!!! and the audience are all in high mood with scream and shout being heard all the time.
