The experience was wonderful and moving, but the time frame was a bit tight. Unfortunately the guide did not meet me at the meeting given, I had to cross the river, and the ferry was taking its time, and it was also the last ferry for the day. He took me to the parmath niketan on his scooter and when ee arrived the chanting had already begun. So there was no time for an introduction and explanations beforehand. He explained to me what this ceremony is about and that it's done every evening, and then took me on his scooter to the Ram Jhula from where I had to get to my hostel on my own. It would be nice to share meeting point information with the guides and instruct them to follow those, and to share beforehand which of the many ceremonies along the Ganges would be visited.
