katora

Yes, katora, there are many hippies in India. They are everywhere. The hippies are very very scary. Do you know they even have magical powers. They can hypnotize you -- you may wake up making noises like a monkey. Also, if you talk to hippies they can distort your mind with subversive ideas.

It is better for you to stay in China where there are no hippies.

Katora, I am a reformed hippy and have tried hard to mend my ways, I travel to India as often as I can and will soon hopefully be living there. I like many shall pot up everywhere, I still like flowers, I follow a teacher that confirms that only Love is the Path of Truth, personally I really enjoy music and I am a vegetarian. Gads, I still must be a hippy.

Now I am on behalf of many hippies offended by the fact that you do not like us, do you know many of us, are we awful, do we smell, is our hair untidy, I shaved mine off but it is long inside, is it our beads, the way that we kiss and hug those that we meet and like. Oh God what is wrong with us, do we steal, murder, rape, do we say nasty things, are we prejudice is that it. I know, it is that we try to live in harmony, that is it isn't it, harmony, I bet we are all greenies at heart, saving whales and kind and generous to fellow human beings. No, we are against pollution, destroying the planet, corruption, exploitation, that's it isn't that's the one that is upsetting.

Sorry, Shit Happens Luv.

All sarcasm aside Katora, such prejudices against people will only cause you a great deal of grief, India is not the place to go if you have prejudices you will not enjoy your journey and in many ways your life is very shallow, even hollow if you have such thoughts and feelings. Maybe it is time to consider unconditional love and respect for all people, whether they are racially, socially, culturally or physically different from you. If it is the Political or Cultural Narrative of China that Hippies are nasty people then time to leave China in a big hurry sister.

I've also heard some of them have AIDS
Some hippies are gypsies really and steal your money when you are not looking


For God's sake....

I think our member, seventies'hippy is to blame, I will try to prevent him from getting a visa, the whole of India will be a safer place to travel if he is prevented from leaving England.

I thought hippies are now as declared endangered species!

Hey! Is it true that you can catch AIDS from just talking to a Hippy? Or even just looking at one from across the street? Is it true that hippies invented AIDS?

This is the funniest thread I've read in a long time!

The people you should be really scared of, Katora, is those who cut their hair short, washed under their arms, put on suits, became accountants and IT managers but remained free-thinking individuals on the inside. Maybe you had a business meeting with a hippy today? Are you safe anywhere?

I wouldn't like to name names, but you might be reading posts by hippies right now!

Hello Katora
Don't let all these jokers throw you off. China just put my country on the list of places they will give people a visa to visit. Is a visa for India something new or have they just opened up?

If you are really afraid of hippies you should know that India is where they learned how to be hippies. The Indians taught them and then they took it all over the world.

Actually I just realised why I felt so at home on my first trip and each subsequent trips to India, all Indians are Hippies, its true, look at the hare krisnas, anyone that wears a sari, hippies wear saris. What about the dudes that rub themselves in the ash and have dread locks, wo hippi, how about the musicians and the people that sell stuff on the streets, all hippies. But what about the middle class Indians, they're cool, just like the hippies that went to uni and flipped out for a bit then found IT, wo hippi in the apartment hi ho. Well anyone that waves incense about and puts colour on their fore heads just has to be a hippi, actually Catholic Priests do the incense bucket and play with beads, wo hippi.

That's it there are more hippi's than non hippi's, peace and love man
