The Myth of Time

Is there enough time?

The desert gives no answer.

It has no clocks. No calendars. Only the wind moving across the dunes and the sun rising and disappearing each day.

Perhaps this is why, in the Yogic tradition, time is not always seen as something fixed. The past has already gone. The future has not arrived. There is just the present.

Over the years, riders have joined our Relief Rides at the very last minute — sometimes just a week before departure.

A visa. A flight ticket — and we take care of everything else.

There are a few spaces left, and you can comfortably book yourself onto our November 2026 Pushkar Relief Ride.

You never know what you might discover until you go.

Come ride with us.

Find the ride you already have in you.

Sometimes the best journeys begin with a decision that doesn’t quite make sense on paper.

You may not have ridden a horse in years. You may be wondering if you’re ready for two weeks of adventure in a place you’ve never experienced before.

Take the leap.

For nearly 25 years, Relief Riders International has brought riders together to explore extraordinary landscapes on horseback while helping communities in need through medical, educational and humanitarian programs.

Along the way, strangers become friends, unfamiliar places become unforgettable, and the adventure becomes something much more meaningful.

“An experience like no other! My experience of the February Nagaur Relief Ride was a breakthrough that picked me up and put me down somewhere exponentially further along the road than I expected to get. In my field of travel writing, the description ‘life-changing’ is bandied about loosely, but I could not be more sincere when I say this trip changed my life.”

— Andrew Mersmann, Author of Frommer’s 500 Places Where You Can Make a Difference.

Some 620 million people across India defecate outside, the largest number world-wide. About 70% of rural Indians don’t use toilets, and 28 million children have no toilet facilities in school, according to Unicef. It is common practice for India’s mothers to dispose of their children’s waste in the open.

After 10 years of working in the humanitarian field, it is clear to us that simple measures such as sanitation and hygiene are essential for children to survive.

About 48 per cent of children in India are suffering from some degree of malnutrition. Diarrhea and worm infection are two major health conditions that affect school age children, at the least impacting their learning abilities, at worst contributing to high child mortality rates.

Ride with us this November and make the difference.
