Introduction
Which country occurs to you when you hear the terms like ‘mystic’, ‘mysticism’
and ‘occult’? Ask any person at any
corner of the world. ‘India’ is surely
going to be the commonest reply (who
can say, ‘India’ is the only answer
from all the people). The greatest
poets in world literature have not only
referred to India as a mystic land,
they have also been initiated to
certain mystic practices to quench
their thirst for mystic knowledge. The
country with rich heritage still retains
its mystic flavor. Come to Kerala. Feel
the mystic thrills. Kerala is one of the
most favorite tourist destinations and
spiritual tour destinations for
travellers from all parts of the world.
Situated in the southwestern part of India, this state is a green land- streaked
land alongside Arabian Sea.

Afterwords:
Travel is no travel if it is without a compatible company. When you stand at a
Kerala beach and watch the sailing away of the fishing boat with an evening
view of the boat getting smaller and smaller till it appears to be a little floating
and swinging lamp on the vast sea, you may unknowingly say, ‘look at that’.
If your company or travel partner thinks you to be excessively romantic for
your excitement at this view, there can be nothing more frustrating.
To check your travel compatibility you can try MB Astrology Travel Compatibility
Software (http://www.mysticboard.com/mb-free-astrology-travel-compatibility).
Come to Kerala with a compatible company.
You just cannot miss the mysticism India – it’s incredible.
