A self-funded Buddhist monastery and meditation retreat hidden in a mountainous hideout can now be easily accessible with modern day infrastructure. The benefit of such convenience bringings you right to the door steps either you commute by foot or with a two wheeler. This magnificent monastery is ideal for spiritual seekers to recharge their devine soul through meditation. Buddhist monks act as caretaker runs this monastery large enough to accommodate 50 odd people. A small number of living quarters are built for stay overs. Accommodation is primarily for those coming to learn and practice meditation. Monks who are experience in this art will guide and teaches you the right approaches. The monastery are equipped with simple amenities like toilet, place to shower, kitchen and a chanting hall. Electricity is not an issue here but don't expect 5 star hotel services. Come prepared with some necessities to ward off uninvited guests like mosquitoes. Enjoy fresh air, serene atmosphere with dead silence calmness, hilly surrounding environment, untainted stream water and freshly grown vegetables from around. A perfectly balanced retreat to regain your composure and reenergized your soul.
