The sacred grove of Mawphlang, Meghalaya is
undoubtedly one of the rarest places in the world- Its an undisturbed
patch of forest since many many years; protected by its own
people from generation after generation. Anything belongs there remains there, for ever!. Grass to trees, everything that grows in this land lives and dies here. When most of its people still depend on firewood there is no one collects a thing from this
living forest. I heard sons and daughters of Mawphlang do not even pluck a leaf from
here and take it outside. There are no CC cameras to keep an eye on its beloved people and curious guests who come from all over the world. There are men and women inside this sacred grove with their little
ones, but in the form of monoliths. Vertical ones represent men and
horizontal ones represent women and in fact the caretaker had names for some and tons of stories around them. Trust me, each second spent inside this grove was worth breathing.
It's a family meeting..
Generation gap..
