I departed from home at 5:30 a.m and reached Jyoti Bhawan,
Jamal in an hour. We all headed to Budanilkantha in a microbus and arrived
there at 7 a.m. After reaching, we had a lovely breakfast.
I could see the majority from Newar community and some
foreigners. Guru’s bhajans inside the premises in a loud speaker took me back
to the last year. I was there for 12 days back then. The environment was the
same, very peaceful –well facilitated along with water supply and solar energy.
After the breakfast, I checked the schedule. It began from 8
am. With an hour of anapana followed by an hour of meditation, vipassana
was at 10 a.m. We had lunch at 11 am and rested until 12:30. As the bell rang,
we went to the hall and continued our meditation till 4 pm with short breaks in
between. Before departing, we relished the lovely meal again.
Food provided was mild, tasty and healthy. I wondered how
they manage and was convinced that there are good people in this world who give
donation for other’s benefit. It is a safe place. The facility of pick and drop
makes it even safer.
I wished to stay there forever as the place is full of
nature and is too peaceful. However, after having donated some amount, I had to
return back home with a peaceful mind.
