Waht an amazing place that must be and, indeed, what a powerful experience that must have been for Vidya Rao, who undoubtedly is well read on the Indian scriptures, must possess a very keen sensibility, and looks at the world with the indulgence of a sensitive artist. The melting down of genders in a 'rasoi' to provide nourishment is perhaps the most basic and thus the most powerful act of devotion; devoid of any man-made discriminatory practices like ,religion, language, nationality ... Raza, thank you! I owe you one for providing me with this rich cultural experience, even if it were a vicarious one.
