上午，照常上课，下午去了附近一座山上的庙，看到不少猴子，有一个差点把我水壶偷走.......
晚饭期间无比狂热的歌声唤起了我的好奇心，听起来像是圣歌，能隐约的听到“哈里路亚“等基督教词语。 于是在饭后与几个同学步行十几米，顺着歌声来到了一个独立的大厅。探头一看，其盛况空前，大约能容纳200-300人的大厅里站满了手舞足蹈的人们，我们被一位手拿相机记者似的人物邀请进入了这狂欢一般的盛会，前台是一个看似很现代的乐队在演出，但唱的却是圣歌，主唱那个哥们儿唱的极为投入，煽情到死，下面的人们男女老少无不激动狂热，所有人都在舞动着自己的双臂，有两臂向天随着音乐摆动的，还有极其夸张大肆鼓掌打拍子的，绝大多数人都是闭着眼睛，高声狂唱，歌词似乎很多都是Hindi，但中间夹杂的英语却被唱的极其清晰响亮“Jesus, we worship you!!" 仿佛一种力量，作为没有宗教信仰的我都能感到那种感染力的强烈，用我寒酸的语言是形容不出来的，如果你曾经看过电影Borat中落魄的borat跑到了一个教堂里的那段场景，你就知道我所说的这些印度人当时显得有多么的疯狂，比起电影里的，有过之，而无不及。
遗憾的是，我没能带相机把这次意外的经历纪录下来，但我相信在剩下的日子里还会有类似的节目，到时再拿出来分享，不过我算是第一次体会到了宗教所带来的强大力量。

乐器
像我昨天那篇写的, 那个音乐会震撼的都不行了，尤其是打鼓的那个爷们儿，就是我心中的偶像，看着他身体随着节奏的自如的摆动，实在是让在下佩服的五体投地。巧事就这么发生了，音乐会后我们来到了一家当地比较“豪华“的餐厅吃饭，就在我还对那鼓声意犹未尽的时候，RM教授告诉我我们一行的一个女孩正在学打印度鼓，随后我马上转向她，激动地问我可不可以一起学，得知，她才上了一节课，而且正想找人一起分担下学费。。。。。。 哦也！
说做就做，今天下午我正式开始了我第无数次的学乐器里程。一堂课下来感觉很有意思，这个乐器是由两个一大一小的鼓组成的，对于平常用右手习惯的人来说需要用左手去拍打大鼓， 右手敲击下鼓，第一节课下来一共学到了五个音，还没有五线谱复杂，而且对于新人很容易上手，但愿我能继续追随昨晚那场震撼的音乐会给我留下的余音，坚持下来！
印度鼓课上
由于航班延误，在曼谷呆了一天一夜，顺便和飞机上认识的一印度哥们游览了一下曼谷，注意我那恶劣的长裤，是他妈借的，由于那个皇宫不允许穿短裤入内，我只好忍辱负重乖乖的到门口租了条长裤。。。。
就是这么一个小小的“超龄“乐队， 震撼了我的心灵。最左边那个就是传说中打鼓很牛逼的哥们儿。

a day of great experience
I was hesitating about whether I should write this journal in English or Chinese, obviously chinese is my first language which I'm usually more comforble with, but since I'm gonna have to write papers in English in near future and all languages that came to my ears these days are english or the local language of Mysore, then i decide to write in english.
for the morning, this is the second day of classes, honestly for the first class I'm embarrased to speak that I couldn't really understand the prof's accent so that I just copied down afreen's notes right after the class, and for the gender class, i was being asked by the annoying "feminist" prof about chinese policies of women social status since there're only two men in the group. Apprently i was not prepared to argue about this gender issue since the majority of the class is female.
Actually what I call the great experience started at the early night about 6:30. Dr. Majithia just simply took our group to Dragon Mohan temple in Mysore where there is a splendid theatre to listen to the Hindustani Vocal Recital by Dr.Prabha. In fact at the beginning of this special concert, I was not paying great attention, gradually, as the fabulous drumer in the "band" got in to the role, the music has intensely penetrated to my soul, I feel like levitating with the tones of the singing of the old brown lady on the stage, and fantastic drumer was just my idol..... Dear Jesus, that was absolutely what I was expecting to happen in such a mysterious country---India!
later, Majithia just took us to another the so called sightseens in Mysore, the Jewel Rock resturant, there we just had an excellent dinner ever since we came to this country. The noodle that I have ordered was So fucking spicy which was one of the most fantastic food I have ever had in a year. Also, Majithia was eager to have us drank the indigenous beer called King fisher which made me feel pretty awesome since that was the first beer I drank in India.
Anyways that was the reason that I'm feeling a bit dizzy at the moment, however I'm quite fucking enjoying my experience today, hope for more, still got almost 2 months to spend, Lastly, I wish all the fellows who are writing the 高考tomorrow successfully!
Cheers!

hinduism
经过三十小时的延误，终于到达印度南部历史小城mysore，学生搭配很美妙算我俩男七女，而且看起来女同胞们的质量还是很不错的：）
今天以正常开课，虽然是暑期课程，但从课程安排以及论文数量上来看，还是挺紧张的。 印度文化课很有意思，已经给我朦胧的印度印象又加上了一层神秘的面纱，不过印度文化既然很大程度上是一种精神上的自我约束和反省，也正是我现在所期望的从另一个角度上了解自己，所以我很期待。
昨天晚上教授给我们放了关于甘地的电影，很震撼人心，绝对的伟人。他的理念和其他传统意义上一枪杆子夺取江山的伟人有着根本意义上的区别。 甘地为了解放在英国统治下的印度的自由并没有采取武装冲突，相反他带领大家直接往英国人的枪口上撞得头破血流，这种行为为的是让英国人能够最终意识到其自身的邪恶，以达到让英国殖民者不得不妥协给与印度独立的目的。 这种做法看似愚蠢，而却非常之理智。其间，甘地又多次以绝食的方式号召而且达到了让人们停止暴乱的效果，显示了他极强的人格魅力和对非武力解放印度的坚定信念。虽然甘地并没有能够阻止巴基斯坦的独立，但他的一生绝对堪称伟大和传奇，与毛主席一样，在印度他被印到了每张钞票上。
mysore这个地方似乎比较落后，但愿学期结束后可以有时间去泰姬陵，从儿时就梦想游览的神秘古迹，伟大的古印度，一直伟大的中国！
哥们说的对, 我已经改过来了 哈
