Update 3:
7 July 2005
Having spent the last week in the various libraries, gossip taverns and assorted hell-holes of Bangalore I am glad to now return to my hosts' home and spend the remaining few days in India reading and collating all that I have learned.
Fellow Warg lovers, I cannot enthuse to you enough about the shher, unfettered joy which one may derive from spending several hours in a progressively deteriating state of sobriety discussing with a Brahmin (sp?) the great and wonderful creature that is known as the Warg. This man, his name was Rajinpur Khamar, told me of the great Hindu legends concerning Wargs, and how most uneducated Hindus believed them to be the chariot of demons. He, however, was an enlightened individual belonging to the Dhistar caste, who realised Wargs as the wonderous deities they truly are.
Anyway, my quest draws nigh to its conclusion, and so now I must go and sample more fine Indian foods and liquers, for this type of living is simply not possible at home.
