The Kaveri river has many attractions
lined up, all within half a day's ride from Bangalore. Mekedatu is one such
curiosity, all but a 100 km one way. Like Bheemeshwari, Shivasamudram and other
Kaveri hotspots, Mekedatu is connected via the Kanakpura road, which from my
experience is quite enjoyable (given the traffic is moderately sane and there
are no bus drivers playing Road Rash)
So with another Sunday to kill,
two of us head out for a ride through South Karnataka country side to pay
another visit to Ma Kaveri, and to check out what this deal with the goats is
all about.
The one who is free from the mire
The one who has forsaken desire
The one who is apart from the mass
and does not need a league or a class
The one who has risen from the dark side of life
and shines on a hill built of wisdom and strife
A beacon for the hurt, weak and the frightened
that is the one who is Enlightened
