It’s time to say goodbye to Sagar Island and Hariharananda who has assured me that we can learn everything in life, including healthy sleep. He said, the best way to learn is through repetition. Through practice and repetition, we can teach ourselves all skills.

I start my journey up north with a boat trip. Hari offers me to accompany his brother Gaurav on his boat, who is on his way to the Bihar School of Yoga, in Munger.

I accept with gratitude and soon sit next to Gaurav in a narrow, long wooden boat that glides through the sluggish water.

Yes, now I finally feel like I'm on my way. I've spent the last 2 nights outdoors and I already feel carefree.

The river is several hundred meters wide, it is one of the most important waterways in India. It connects Calcutta with the north of the country.

There are mainly ferry boats and fishermen on the river.

With every mile we ship north, I leave my daily routines behind.

It is good for me to turn my back on the past and enjoy the very moment

The green landscape passes me and I doze off in the heat and enjoy the warm wind.

On the first evening of our trip to Bihar, after a long boat ride, we dock at a jetty.
