The Untold Story of Waterloo
"Most of the people living in Trinidad would agree that mystery shines throughout the island. But it might only be a small number who realizes that such mystery, to a large extent, owes its existence to Indian spirituality.
In the Village of Waterloo, for example, there is the well-known Temple in the Sea. There is a Lingam (sacred stone) with a natural imprint of a cobra. The cobra is a form of Lord Shiva – a Hindu deity. And there is a strange fruit that puzzles people about its existence. What is behind it all? The answer is Indian Spirituality.
In addition to showing how they are all connected; this book takes the reader on a journey to explore the spirituality embedded within the various places of interest in the village, as well; it explores the village’s 160-plus year history of sugar operation and some aspects of Indian immigration into the Caribbean during the colonial period.
