Impressions from Nepal - The Walk to Shivas Temple

The nature of existence is questioned through paradoxical inquiry. The state of being alive is examined and directly negated. This inquiry arises from a playful dialogue, yet points to a serious contemplation. The apparent contradiction serves to dissolve fixed concepts. The declared spiritual topic stands apart from the conversational fragments. The discourse concludes with traditional salutations and an external observation, not a summary.

Holy Lake of Pokhara. Holy Lake. No, no, but it will be different. Tracing the holy steps of holy saints by holy lakes in the holy Himalayas. But now, for the end, I mean, you could, you know, put us in the picture, come on, in three seconds. Yeah, I mean, we are serious guys, good looking. I mean, we need to promote.
