familiar“hello,hello”greeting given to foreigners and turned to see what looked like a mountain man emerging from the shadowed entrance.,He beckoned me in,and,never being short on curiosity I followed.The entrance eventually opened out into a smallish cave deep in the mountain,clouded with incense smoke and desperately cold.In the light of four fat red candles he motioned me to sit on a
