Exploring Buddhism

Everyone has a story to tell.

About This Journey

I’ve always struggled with defining the unique selling point of this blog. It started as a daily journal, which never motivated me enough to write consistently. Now, it has transformed into a space where I document the highs and lows of my life. This approach doesn’t just keep me grounded, grateful, and humble, but it also brings immense joy and a sense of purpose to my everyday life.

Discovering Tushita Meditation Center

Does it ever happen to you where you open your phone to look at something, and before you know it, you are watching cat videos and it’s 3 AM? My Google search one evening took a similar turn, starting from “Therapy Groups in Delhi” to “Meditation Centers in Delhi.” Among the many suggestions, one jewel stood out: Tushita, located in the posh heart of Delhi, Hauz Khas.

I impulsively texted my best friend about this place, eager to attend their next session. Despite the summer heat, the walk from the metro station was worth the effort. The entrance to Tushita, depicted in the photo at the top, welcomes you to a world cut off from the outside—no internet, no network, just people and meaningful conversations.

During my first visit, the teacher, known as Venerable, not “Vulnerable” (a mix-up I made initially), greeted me with warmth and humor. Contrary to popular belief, the crowd at these centers isn’t just retirees; there are young professionals, businessmen, and even recent graduates.

A Session to Remember

The session began with a simple meditation to leave the day behind, followed by teachings that were both profound and personal. It’s an experience I choose not to fully document here because it’s something you truly have to experience firsthand.

Reflections

The experience at Tushita brought a calmness to me that is hard to describe. I’ve learned a great deal not only from the teacher but also from fellow attendees. There’s much more to share, but that will have to wait for another post. Stay tuned, and let me know if you’d ever like to join me for a session!

Tushita is currently on a summer break and will resume sessions on August 15.

Signing off for now, and remember—everyone has a story to tell.
