1 review of Meena's Shop

Full of good karma

Meeting Meena and family was one of the experiences that I most fondly remember from this trip to India. On the way to Bhagsu McLeod is the Meena's store-workshop, a small room full of good karma. The shelves are full of wood carvings, stones of all kinds, large rocks, minerals and Tibetan bowls. A dreamcatcher hung over our heads, necklaces with stones set into macramé on the ground, on some simple cushions the ever present company of Meena and brothers. Behind the glass and wood counter, very close to the stones, Meena's always smiling. The morning I started the course (a friend and I) saw a strong cow go to the counter, Meena immediately removed from a huge bag a package containing cakes for the cow, when the package was empty the cow was encouraged on his way, and the cow, without hesitation, turned and continued up the street.

We stayed for 2 days of courses with Meena and family, it was a fun experience with friendly people. Besides having a couple of lessons we were lucky that Meena accompanied us on our trip to Dal Lake telling us things about the town, the lake, culture and beliefs, dreams and rejoicing with their songs. Dreamcatcher course-350rps. There is also a Mina catcher for the same price, so if you want one and want to learn to do it, it will cost the same as the facts, since the price of the course includes material to make 1 catcher and it will be a fun experience. Macramé course-300rps 5-6 hours in 1 day or 1.5 days to learn knotting with cord to make pendants, bracelets, set stones (includes material except Stone being crimped).
