Pottery Barn

The last thing I did in India was go on a heritage walk in the Nandi Valley just out of Bangalore. We saw British graves from 1800 and an incredible Hindu temple from 800... both fascinating.  But in between getting to those things we dropped in on a 'barn' where there were a team producing big pottery urns. 


Bangalore might be the software capital of the world (according to Indians) but here may as well been in the 8th century.  Such is the ever-present contrast of modernity meets medieval in India.  This guy spun his wheel with a big stick on the foot circle below.  When it slowed down he got the stick out and spun it again. And again.


These chaps were making their pots using the coil method (yes actually I do know a small amount about pottery I'll have you know).   I think they are used as clay ovens for cooking tandoori, I missed that bit as I was so distracted watching the guy with the stick.

  1. Look at the way my acquaintance Wesley Virgin's adventure begins with this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL VIDEO.

    As a matter of fact, Wesley was in the army-and shortly after leaving-he revealed hidden, "SELF MIND CONTROL" secrets that the government and others used to get whatever they want.

    THESE are the EXACT same methods tons of famous people (especially those who "come out of nowhere") and elite business people used to become wealthy and successful.

    You probably know that you use less than 10% of your brain.

    Really, that's because most of your brain's power is UNCONSCIOUS.

    Maybe this conversation has even taken place INSIDE your very own head... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's head about 7 years ago, while riding an unlicensed, trash bucket of a car with a suspended license and in his bank account.

    "I'm so frustrated with going through life payroll to payroll! When will I finally succeed?"

    You took part in those conversations, ain't it so?

    Your very own success story is waiting to start. All you need is to believe in YOURSELF.
