\"InAuteur Benti Banach verbleef tussen 2003 en 2007 voor viermaal langere tijd in Spiti. Hij had het voorrecht op de school Munsel-Ling te mogen werken: het middelpunt van de samenleving waar alle verhalen samenkomen.<\/p>\n

Spiti is een droog en zanderig Himalaya gebied. Surely the gods live here, this is no place for men… een uitspraak van Kipling. Prachtig in\u00a0haar schoonheid en tegelijkertijd hard voor de mensen om er te leven. Vraag\u00a0 je de kinderen op de school Munsel-Ling wat ze het mooist vinden aan Spiti, dan is steevast ‘de bergen’ hun antwoord.<\/p>\n

Benti Banach\u00a0vroeg zich af ‘Wat gaat er in de valleibewoners om? Wat drijft hen? Waar worstelen ze mee?’ Het boek In de Schaduw van\u00a0Boeddha<\/strong> beschrijft het leven van de valleibewoners. Het leest prettig weg,\u00a0met hier en daar een vleugje humor. Op het moment dat\u00a0Benti\u00a0zijn wandeling\u00a0over de paden door Kaza beschrijft, zie ik het voor me. Natuurlijk omdat ik daar een aantal malen\u00a0ben geweest. Wat, naar mijn mening,\u00a0in\u00a0het\u00a0boek niet\u00a0beeldend beschrijft, is de natuurpracht en -kracht van de bergen,\u00a0de vallei en de agrarische\u00a0velden.<\/p>\n
