Assam heeft een wereldfaam veroverd voor de beste thee. Sinds 1823 werd reeds genoteerd dat de theeplant op een natuurlijke wijze groeide in 'the upper Brahmaputra valley'. Inmiddels groeide de theeplant over bijna geheel Assam. Ongeveer 51% van de lokale theeproductie in India komt van de deelstaat Assam. in 1911 werd voor de thee kwaliteit een onderzoekscentrum gebouwd in Jorhat/Assam.

The Indian government's Citizenship (amendment) Bill - CAB - lead to protests in NE India. As a consequence of the barricades and curfews in various parts of Assam, my travels in the area were impacted. At one point we were advised to take shelter at a police station and wait for a police escort to accompany us to our destination, Jorhat centre. The main access roads had barricades, like this one, where tyres had been set alight to stop traffic.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chillum_(pipe)
Another name for a chillum is a hash pipe or pure pipe. Chillums were mainly used in India by Sacred Sadhu men. This chillum was made of beautiful black ceramic clay.
This Chillum was most likely made in India. Inside there is a small marble shaped black ceramic blocker which stops whatever is being smoked from being drawn into the smoker’s mouth. It easily rolls out for cleaning but I have never used this item for anything other than for a curious display piece. I have never seen another piece but guess that they are readily available in the Middle East.
Chillum (pipe)

A chillum, or chilam, is a straight conical pipe with end-to-end channel, traditionally made of clay and used since at least the eighteenth century[1] [2] in India. It was invented in India.[citation needed] The culture of chillum-smoking has spread from India to the rest of the world since the mid-1960s.[dubious – discuss]
Contents
Chillum stone
When smoking a chillum a chillum stone is often inserted in the pipe to keep from directly inhaling debris much like a screen or filter is used in other pipes. They are generally tight fitting, conical with a flat top and usually have a small hole drilled down through the centre and slits down the sides to allow smoke to pass freely. Before they were commercially available people would search for the right sized pebble off the ground to fit their pipes. Some still do.
According to Alfred Dunhill, Africans have long employed chillum-style pipes for smoking cannabis and later tobacco. Gourds and various horns were often employed while conical bowls were common in Uganda. One of the more famous pipes is an ivory cone pipe once belonging to "Waganda" monarch King Mtesa.[3]
More recently, it has also seen use in sacraments by Rastafari.[4][5]
Since the 1960s the embellished bamboo chillum has become an American folk art form. These pipes are handmade and often sold by the artists on street corners in places like the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco and the Greenwich Village area of New York City. As designs these contemporary smoking pipes recall traditional decorated bamboo pipes from Borneo,[3] however, the American carved bamboo design often employs a brass lighting fixture for a bowl. Since the 1970s, street artist Darrel "Pipeman" Mortimer of San Francisco has made nearly 10,000 such pipes, each signed, numbered, and sold personally.[6]
Rastafari ceremony
In "reasoning sessions" and grounations, the ritual chillum used is made of a cow's horn or conical wood piece, fitted with a long drawtube giving the smoke time to cool before inhalation.
A bong-like chillum equipped with a water filtration chamber is sometimes referred to as a chalice, based on a quote from the Biblical book of Deuteronomy.[7] Thanks and praises are offered to Jah before smoking the chillum.[8]

Satras are socio-religious institutions in the Assam region of India that belong to the Mahapuruxiya Dharma. Monks, called bhakats, live in satras under a satradhikar. In some orders of the religion, the bhakats are celibate (kewalia bhakat). The satras are not merely religious institutions but play cultural and historical roles in society. A dance form that was initiated by Srimanta Sankardeva and later developed within the sattras, and thus called Satriya dance, is one of the eight classical dance forms in India.

About Majuli Island
Mājuli or Majoli is a large river island in the Brahmaputra river, in Assam, India. Mājuli had a total area of 1,250 square kilometres (483 sq mi), but having lost significantly to erosion it has an area of only 421.65 square kilometres (163 sq mi) in 2001. Majuli has shrunk as the river surrounding it has grown.
The island is formed by the Brahmaputra river in the south and the Kherkutia Xuti, an anabranch of the Brahmaputra, joined by the Subansiri River in the north. Mājuli island is accessible by ferries from the City of Jorhat. The island is about 200 kilometres east from the state's largest city —Guwahati. The island was formed due to course changes by the river Brahmaputra and its tributaries, mainly the Lohit. Mājuli is also the abode of the Assamese neo-Vaisnavite culture.

Majuli - Upon reaching here, you realize its not just a destination, but a way of living aswell. Starting from the various modes of transportation, dwelling in bamboo cottages and having food cooked on firewood, it completely lets you soak yourself in the daily lifestyle. This place, said to be the largest river island, even preserves the culture of Assam.

Treehouses and jungle lodges in Bheemeshwari, Karnataka- the beautiful Bheemeshwari jungle lodge is almost 2 hours away from Bangalore, hidden from hectic and busy city life. This idyllic spot has the river Kaveri on one side and the jungle on the other. A part of the Government of Karnataka’s venture to increase tourism, the Bheemeshwari Jungle Lodge is less known than the more popular Kabini. More peaceful than adventurous, a vacation in Bheemeshwari can include boat rides down the Kaveri, a jungle safari usually just with deer or fox sightings, mild adventure sports like zip-lining or just lazing around by the river. There is no mobile phone network service here, making this really a perfect vacation to switch off and be one with nature.
