Rekh provided one of the most knowledgeable and sincere tours of several temples in Bangalore. I felt priviledged to have her escort me around to so many wonderful sites and she filled in the history and the importance of each site. She took me to places where some of the other tourists didn't know to go and pointed out the interconnectedness of these powerful places. She left no stone untouched and when we arrived at the Ramakrishna temple she gave me time to meditate at Sarada Devi's "rock". There was lunch included and she quickly responded to any need I had. I highly recomend this tour and Rekh. You cannot find any better in Bangalore. Sathyadewa
