Waisakh (April- May) A season where life and death are simultaneous. The seeds of Chaitra have died to give birth to a new awareness…with a sense of waiting…of hope…of expectation…when life all around is slowly wilting. The trees are beginning to shed, the waters are receding, the birds have quietened down and so has the sky…quiet and somber, and, all around is the sheer brilliance of gold reflected in the golden grain of wheat in the fields.
