Last year I left a reasonably well paid IT job and also finished a 7 year relationship as neither were working for me. <br /><br />I'm currently living in a Theravadan Buddhist Monastery in West Sussex UK and also retrained as a gong practitioner. I'm trying to set up my life to work for myself from April to November then head to India or Asia and travel, explore, work in Ashrams and monasteries etc for the winters. I want to deepen my spiritual practice so can't think of anywhere better to go than India. I look forward to reading more of your posts. I hope your journey on your path leads you to liberation and freedom from suffering.

I am also trying to find my path and see all the seemingly wrong directions as the means which will lead me to the right one. Experiences are the best teacher. I've been to India, to the sivananda ashram in madurai thanks to you.And I had a great time, it was absolutely the right thing to do. So it's really great that you're sharing your experiences here, I am sure it will help and encourage a lot of people.I am looking forward to the next part:)<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4277020627848966799.post-1446721810584566622018-04-09T16:06:39.507+05:302018-04-09T16:06:39.507+05:30Thank you for sharing!
