from inside the meteorite


sign of god?, originally uploaded by piccola ala.

the meteorite consisted in a harrow like black rock that pierced the hearth and all around the valley it's possible to find 56 pieces of rocks like this, but of different sizes.
this one was the biggest one, quite like a rock montain and inside there was this cave from which I managed to take this picure.
This place is actually known among the indians not for the extraordinary piece of space rock but for the temple that was built just at the feet of it.
On the way to it we stopped in the jungle and I looked for cobras as the region is quite full with black big ones. The creazy thing is that as soon as we stopped the bike I heard the stalking noise of a snake and immediately knew where to look. A huge cobra was promenading in the dry leaves close to a water spot. the feeling that such an animal in the wild life can give you is something impossible to describe. I was petrified by wonder.
But more, when we where walking down to our bike a black big cobra crossed my way,- Nikil paniked- I was too atracted by the animal I walked straight forward him I was hypnotized by its beauty, I waited he crossed the way and while Nikil the poor lad was trying unsuccesfully to stop me I went to stand in front of the snake, he stopped, he turned his head and looked at me and that moment I will never forget. We were very close to each other and I knew nothing could happen to me, I had this weird certainty that the cobra would not attack me, I was not scared at all, fashinated, in a sort of trance but not scared.
Nikil did not live it in the same way. He got pretty pale and rushed to get out of the place, he did not like snakes at all and we saw another one crossing our street on the way home. I was hoping to see cobras all the time and this day I got compleately satisfied.
