Any Fruit eaters in India???

Posted by Jenee the Fruity Gypsy on October 12, 2012 at 7:20am in Travel

On my way to iIdia in November and will be there for awhile. Would love to meet up with other fruit munchers while I am there. If you live there or might be around between November and April (over the winter) please let me know. Be great to meet up and share some fruit together :-)

    I saw a comment in this group of someone in India during that time:

    Hi jen It can be tricky I will admit! when I have gone to sit meditation courses has often been when I have not been completely raw. In Thailand they always have fruit but as everyone eats fruit there, it is not enough to live on. They always have lots of lettuce/tomato/ cucumber at lunch.

    I sat 20 days in the US and they provided fruit for me but it was a bit challenging to convince the, I was not going to get sick or faint!!! I have been to the center in india many times before and I have made it very clear on my application and with the center manager that I need LOTS of fruit every meal.

    Centers will not be happy about you taking fruit. I sometimes take dates as a back up. They are very reluctant as they want people to eat what is given and don't want people to use it as a detox center. Just make it clear this is how you eat and it is important for your health. I have always had dietary requests when meditating as i was vegan and allergic to gluten before raw  :-)

            Jenee, just curious, will they let you bring fruits to the meditation? I asked about that in Thailand, and they were reluctant. How are you gonna do that, logistically?
