@PloughBooks 11/ From Kabir, the trail bends north to Kashmir, where the folk current of realization became land-based and civilizationally braided: vernacular, anti-elitist and radically local. Here, practice left the page: bread was shared, trees planted, hunger answered, hierarchy refused.

Copy of tweet here: Anointed by the spirit of Kashmiryat. I so love this platform, and this image, just posted by one of the best reasons to be here, @Himalayologist. It _precisely_ mirrors my minds eye of this outdoor 'loggia', sunlight, shadows and all, when I stood there as a child, 47 years ago. Image of tweet here: Vaibhav Kaul This part of Srinagar's Hari Parbat Fort is very similar to the Bhool Bhulaiya in Lucknow's Bara Imambara. Image of sunlit walkway-corridor within the fort.
