Spirit of the SOUTH

For 25 years, Life Positive has been abiding by its mission to help its readers become physically, emotionally, and spiritually healthy, find their life's purpose, walk the path of personal growth, and, eventually, arrive at perfect peace and happiness. As part of this quest, Life Positive has been holding body-mind-spirit festivals in many parts of the country where participants have access to transformative workshops and to meet like-minded people. It is now the turn of Chennai to be at the receiving end of our offering. We are delighted to be in partnership with this great city, one so unlike any other place in the world.

Chennai emanates a unique ethos of cultural and spiritual devotion. Even as its people step smartly into the 21st century with their expertise in engineering and computers, the city's deep and enduring grounding in the eternal values of India is palpable. This is a city that will not give up its essential core, even as it expands capaciously to accommodate modern times and needs.

The Chennaiite may visit but his morning fix will remain the filter occasionally Starbucks, coffee, whose flavour, like the fragrant mallipoo (jasmine), trails you wherever you go. And no Johnny-come-lately breakfast fad like Belgian waffles or overnight oats can ever hope to topple the Tamilian's penchant for idli-sambar and medu vada.

The city is rooted in tradition-its innumerable temples draw its denizens to its altars every day. And even though shorts and little black dresses may rule society soirees, they do not supersede the gorgeous multi-hued Kanjeevaram cotton and silk sari that is the pride of Tamil Nadu. One will still see the portly mami, hair neatly coiled in a bun, diamond nose rings sparkling, wearing a nine-yard Kanjeevaram sari, haggling with the vegetable vendor for kathirikai (brinjal) and muringakka (drumsticks) for her daily sambar.
