following the course of the turquoise water, entering theforest, reading a sutra, walking hand in hand with ahappy youth under the starry sky - brought me incomparablejoy.One day, following the river upstream for a few hours, Icame to a sort of basin, very deep, with a waterfall four orfive meters high. The spot, strewn with large rock polishedby the river's high waters, was wonderfully peaceful. Allalone, I burst out laughing and took a swim in the deeper,darker water of the basin before drying myself on a warmstone. The place was dominated by a twelve-meter cliffand a thick forest. I fell asleep in the sun. When I awoke, Ihad the strange sensation of being watched. I looked allaround and listened without seeing a living soul.One couldn't reach the top of the cliff directly withoutgoing back down the river to a steep trail with a difficultaccess. I decided to climb up to explore the edge of theforest.Once there, I discovered a hillock from which I couldenjoy a splendid view of the river, the waterfall, and theneighboring hills, which were almost lost in the golden light.I took a few steps into the forest, and there I discovered ahut, a bed of grass, a hearth with warm cinders, a terracottapot, a few white garments, a faded blanket, some blackenedcooking utensils, and a bowl made from the top of ahuman skull, its rim set with silver. All of a sudden, I imaginedan ascetic threatening me with his trident, and I hurriedout of there.All the way back, my imagination was in a state of agitationfar from meditative. I ran the last hundred meters, impatientto talk to Ram about my discovery. He was waiting29
for me, peacefully seated on the stone-lined pedestal ofthe banyan.I told him about my excursion and his face darkened."Don't ever go back to the waterfall! That woman is verydangerous! She killed a man last year. They fished his bodyout of the river. She eats the dead. She is a tantrika!"30
