I found your website while searching for an image of Shiva. When I signed up for your articles, I had no idea how wonderful they would be. Well written, informative, and thoughtful is just the beginning. Thank you so much for putting so much time and effort into what you do. I have love reading them, sharing them, and I look forward to receiving them every month!

I have really enjoyed your newsletters. Sent regularly, I acquire great knowledge and wisdom from them.
I thank you for sharing further news and articles from your wonderful site. I have purchased from you previously and hence receive wonderful letters on Diwali in the post.
I am grateful for your contribution in highlighting Indian (Sanatan Dharma) culture and it's value in today's society.

There is no way I can thank you enough for the time you take to put together the beautiful articles with the links to the pictures. Your writing is so beautiful and easy to understand that I print the articles out so I can read them at breaks during the work day when I need a "reading meditation" for help in centering.
Thank you again for your contribution to the raising of human consciousness.
May you always walk aware of the serenity and love of the cosmos.

Dear Exotic India,
This sight is so very beautiful, with beautiful stories and images!! As I read them now being in Europe and normally living in India, I now understand much more about all the Hindu stories about the Gods. Good to let the people know, what they are all about and what they mean. I passed this sight on to my family, who agrees with me about what I just wrote down.
Good luck to you with this sight!!!

Just a thank you for sending me these wonderful articles. I really appreciate them. Reach for the Joy!

At this time I can't afford to buy the lovely things you offer, but I want to thank you for keeping me on your mailing list and sending me these wonderful descriptions of the mystic religious and cultural aspects of India. They are interesting, well written, and help me to see things from the outside and understand them a little more. It is very true that it is easier to emerge from a maze when part of you can hover overhead to see the whole problem. I started as a simple doll collector, but find your articles add a richness to the aspect of the dolls and my own life. Thanks again.

I am writing to you in regards to the newsletters. I enjoy them very much, and have used them as spring boards to further my knowledge in Indian culture. I would like very much to see one on chakras. That is a subject I've been interested in fairly recently.
Thanks!
Amber
Thank-you for the very informative articles and the lovely art pictures that you send. In the plethora of silliness that is sent out on the web every day, your sendings allow me a moment of peace and reflection. again, thank-you.
Cayce
Wonderful website.
Your articles are great to read as I am especially interested in mythology. I am now trying to learn more about Hinduism and its philosophies. I would love to take up the hindu religion but as an older caucasian woman I would most probly find this very difficult. Anyway I love your artwork and the articles you write.

I cannot begin to tell you how much I truly enjoy these monthly submissions. They are so insightful and interesting. Just thought I would let you know that I rank Exotic India's monthly mailings as among my very favorites! Keep up the good work!
Michele
Once again, thank you for your wonderful service of sending your monthly "lessons"! I learn so much from them, and they deepen to my practice in so many ways, I cannot express the depth of my gratitude. Your interpretations are always loving and kind, and it is like drinking a nectar of compassion to read them.
My only regret is that I am not wealthy and materialistic, so I could contribute to your success in more substantial fashion.
Love & Peace

A few years ago I purchased a carved necklace fm Tibet with all these symbols and it called to me today to find out what they all mean since I am immersing myself in practical Buddhism, such a noble and radiant way of Life!!
Barbara Lowell
I just wish to say how much I enjoy your posts and updates. I find it interesting, as a Free Mason , how much Buddhist philosophy and ritual is paralleled in Masonic obediences. Whether these parallels are something absorbed by my ancient brethren or are common to ritualistic works I dont know. Thanks again and Happy Trails.
Tom
Your articles are always written so eloquently with Divine Wisdom. Thank you for your work. I look forward to reading it every month. God Bless You.
Namaste,
Kimberley Ashley
I love reading your monthly articles, they are inspiring! Why is it that India is the cradle of so many world religions? Buddhism, Hinduism and Sikhism to name but three!
Best wishes and kind regards,
Patricia
Not only are the products amazing and beautiful, but the informational emails I am now receiving are full of fascinating facts which I like to share with my friends. I have seen many beautiful and meaningful items on your website which I will purchase as soon as I am working full-time again. This is something I look forward to very much.
L. C. Martin
I just wanted to say that I find your scholarly knowledge to be amazing! I am familiar with many of the authors in your bibliographies and am amazed at your extensive readings.
I enjoy your articles so much..even tho they are meant to promote sales, that aside, it is nice to read 'religious' articles that are full of the love, goodness and compassion that we should all strive to practice in our every day lives.
I always look forward to your artilces. You must be a very learned and wise person.
Carol Cone
Wonderful article...thank you very much..will send it on to others who might appreciate it...sincerely,

Thank you for sending me the above reading material.I am a Chinese reader. Because of my job working in a Buddhist temple in Shanghai and work as a editor of a free Buddhist journal.I knew your "Exotic India"for a few years. I think you are great and one of the best I know on line. I give you sincere gratitude from the bottom of my heart. I love India and her people and her brilliant spiritual culture. It is through you and your "Exotic India" that I find myself more close to the truth of Indian life and spirit. Thank you again.

I have greatly enjoyed your articles on a subject I know much too little about. Keep them coming! Thanks
Bob Speckman, Oregon, USA
Your newsletter is a wonderful idea! I fear I am merely a "window shopper" in your gallery, but your articles are most informative! You gain much merit by your service in educating the public about the significance of this sacred art. May this work also bring you much joy and prosperity!
Ana Foscari
Your monthly articles on philosophy and iconography are some of the best I've been able to find since searching over the last few years. Always very clearly and logically explained in their spiritual significance and deep philosophical upderpinning rather than just superficial and sentimental devotional tracts any New Age shop has. Look forward to them every month and print them off to save.
Gerard, Australia.
I had to write to tell you how much I look forward to receiving the Exotic India newsletter. I always learn something, am always inspired, and am always appreciative, even though I have not shared my thanks with you until today.
What you are doing has real value. Thank you for your efforts! Many blessing to you.
Sincerely,
Heather Sielicki
I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your articles on India. I read each one and many I have printed out to save as I am deeply interested in the culture, philosophies and arts of your country. I visited South India last winter and hope to get back to explore North India next year. I am an artist and am doing a series of paintings that have resulted from my love of India. I have 2 works in a show this month that are my exploration into the complex dichotomy of Shiva and his Dance.
Again thank you for the great articles and for your fine company.
Sincerely,
Eve Bennett
Just a note of thanks for your very interesting website. Its only one of few that I look foward to. Best Regards

I have been reading your articles on Jewelry and Ramayana and have enjoyed both of them both. I have seen the Epic Ramayan and am now in the process of watching Shri Krishna. Keep the articles coming. They are exceptional and very informative.
Elizabeth Kotulak
Thank you so much for yet another wonderful article. I have learned so much about Eastern philosophy, iconography, and theology through reading your monthly articles. I keep a file of them, and often refer to one or another in preparing presentations at the Interfaith Center I help direct.
Please continue your very important contribution to the education and enlightenment of human kind.
Gratefully

Thank you for your great coverage of art and mythology images--I am always impressed with your articles.

Having read and enjoyed your "Article of the Month" for several years, I just want to thank and congratulate you for these excellent texts. As a journalist specializing in religious questions I have learned much - especially about Buddhism and the different facets of Hinduism.
Now I have a request (or a proposal if you like): Would it be possible for you to publish something about the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara/Chenrezig/Kwan Yin? He/she is one of the most fascinating figures in the buddhist pantheon and I would be very glad to learn more about "He (she) who hears the cries of the world".
Best regards!
Dietrich Haubold
I enjoyed receiving and reading this--have forwarded to several friends. Many thanks.
Harriet

Thank you for providing such a wonderful, informative news letter.I am SO glad I discovered your site. Thanks again
Gordon
I am so grateful that I have found your web site. From my first visit to Southern India I have felt in my heart the most special place for India. When I stepped of the Airplane for the first time I felt like I had returned home. I loved the people, the smells, the beauty all around and most of all how the sacred permeated everything.
I can not thank you enough for offering me the chance to order gifts and alter items from India. I have placed two orders and both arrived beautifully wrapped with a signed card in a few days. Sooner than it takes me to fly to India. I have told my friends of your web site.
Thank of you for sending the informative article today. I really enjoyed it. I think that I shall go have Indian food tonight.
May there be Peace on Earth.
May All Beings Be Happy.

Once again, you have done us proud, to put forth another well written discourse. I hope you are one with the great mind, the universe, brahman, only coming out to illuminate, like a firefly, a dark night in the world of men.
