The View from the Cliff Top

I have been in Kerala for three days and I have settled into a life of quiet activity and leisure. Last year I was teaching in two places and commuting between the two. Now I am in a community of Priest and religious young men.
The Noviciate is perched atop a cliff above a wide river, the Periya River in a suburb in Kerala called Kanjoor. I am here to continue the work of Br Greg McCann msc of teaching nine young men English and whatever other knowledge and skills I can share in my short time here.
India is a deeply religious place with a clutter of religious imagery, practise, devotion and belief. I enjoy it and compare it to the simpler and less cluttered life in my own world.
