Namaste India


“I believe that there are days in our lives when we feel defeated in our efforts but not in our intention.

I believe that there can be no bigger God than the One within Us.

I believe there can be no bigger Buddha than that of Universal Peace.

Diffferent Journeys...Different Homes...Dharamshala Hotels..!





A home in Dharamsala, A Hotel in the mountains, a Restaurant on the way side, while you make a journey..you break your travel for a meal, which lasts for more than an hour because, you get caught up in a chat over a painting on the wall.

The brush, the camera lens are both adept at capturing moments in history, the passing of seasons, snow n sunshine, Tibet in its ancient dilemma of surviving the chill, as the urban winds of change arrive on the doorstep of old forgotten homes.

Yes, travel must always..like the brush and the camera lens, capture the heart n spirit of the people you meet on the way, their problems, their traditions, their cuisine and if you are lucky, you might get to share the hospitality  and warmth of their home..!

In and around Dharamsala India..


We discovered the art of good health, yoga and meditation with a chanting Guru, vedic kitchen, health food, a bout of spirituality at His Holiness, the Dalai Lama Teachings..and so much more..!

Mcleodganj with its buzzing energy of cosmopolitan flavors the shouts and screams of  wayside vendors and holy baths at Bhagsu Nag...Shrines in and around Dharamsala forgotten in age and still revered with faith in daily ballads sung with unquestionable devotion.

Our hosts at Vidya Niwas were friends and mentors both as were the students we met on our holy trip. We look ahead to more of this by coming back again for discovering our souls and Dharamsala more..

Oh..!, The Comfort of Good Friends, Good Food and A Warm Cozy Bed..!


Yes every time we plan a holiday ,we never forget to make a list of all we can do, we browse thru hotel listings and mark our hospitality stay.....forts and palaces, shrines and monasteries, the beach and the mountains.....

Flights and buzzing bus stands, a thought on whether we should do it by train to see the green countryside..Maps and landmarks, sightseeing and adventure trails, an event which could not be missed..even the spiritual trend begins with Yoga Gurus and Buddhist teachings.

We find ourselves in the middle of a shopping spree which outgrows our pocket, share dairy notes with fellow travelers over a cup of hot 'chai', return home and get back to the usual routine and work..!

As the days pass by on the calendar, there are some memories which although not planned on your schedule still linger and make it as a holiday of a lifetime. The good friends we picked up on the trail, the sharing of  conversation n food and above all the heart touching care n concern of your hosts and warm hospitality. Yes, even the warm quilts and the evening stars,  the weather your journey guide and a good book which tells you all..!

Enjoy your Trip with Warm Hospitality in Dharamsala Hotels..!

Tradition in a Tea Cup..Tibetan Tea..!


The ancient Tibetan Tea House culture has found its way through the long dreary winter journeys on the ancient Himalayan Silk Route. The much acquired flavor of traditional 'butter tea' which was a high calorie energizer for the mountain folks, still is very much a top favorite in Tibetan homes and Monasteries. 

However, as the days passed by, the ancient knowledge of Tibetan herbs n medicine soon became a tea blend trend for the present day tea culture from Tibet. These teas can be drunk at anytime of the day for creating better toning of the skin and a digestive balance of the body. 

Indian herbal tea leaves freshly hand picked in the mountain valleys of  Dharamsala and Palampur, are fragnant with the British afternoon sessions where people gathered for conversation. The famous Kangra tea today has many Tibetan tea brews for you to discover in Dharamsala India..

India Travel..the terrians of the Himalayas..!


From the time of Marcopolo and ancient chinese travelers, discovering new places, new cultures has been the passion and path of gaining insight into the knowledge of Earth. While, we look for glossy brochures, healing home stays, adventure and history chapters in our sightseeings, few can deny  that a holiday which has been designed according to the needs of the client are primarily in the focus of personal attention. They require detail study of the destination and how it can contribute to the vacation requirement of the customer. 

The 'Himalayas' in India in the foothills of the Dhauladhar range in Dharamsala, Shimla, Manali and Mussorrie, Nainital in the Garhwal Hills and even the remote areas of Kinnaur and Spiti Valley are truly an experience of a lifetime. The mountains are alive with the legends of Gods n Goddesses, they jingle with the travelling ballads of the shepherds and resound with the  chants of rotating prayer wheels..a wonderway way to be blessed..!

Building a Buddha Shrine, 2014 !



A Buddha in your house can dispel negative perceptions on achievement and self disillusion. Many a time a statue in a sacred shrine will prompt many devotees at its feet..however, there is no better altar than that of faith and that we must build ourselves in our own heart.

The hand crafted sculpture of India has been inherited from centuries of travelling Buddhists around the globe. In your own home, you too can create your own Buddha shrine which can prompt your soul moment of truth and peace in the house. 

Find yourself a Buddha from Dharamsala, the town of His Holiness, the Dalai Lama and the trending hub of neo-buddhism with flourishing Buddhist artistry.

The Art of the Gods n Goddesses of India..Spirituality a Creation of Mankind..!




The art of India has fascinated many from days of old. The vision of man from centuries found expression in stone , brass, bronze, gold, silver and many more. As man created divinity , God manifested himself in the craft of wall carved frescos, statues and handmade embellishments!  

The might of the natural elements Fire, Water, Earth and Air was reincarnated and born to the beauty of Man, Art and Tradition,  translated itself in the cultural bonanza of various international hues and color.....However the creation of art knew not the boundaries of man made Nations, Caste and Creed.
It recognized only its Gods,  in shrines , shops, studios and the select study of  spirituality in various religions n art forms.

In India statue casting is as old as the civilization of the Sages....at Buddha Bazaar discover the many moulds of this human creation......

Playing with your Childhood..!


It is essential that the  child in you be always alive....a childhood well spent goes a long way in developing the moral and physical character of a human being. 

Who can forget doll parties, school matches and outdoor picnics. What you do at home is a reflection of what you will do in life later on. Childhood influences build up a society which can teach in all that it has learned.

High Tea in the Mountains..!



The Mountain air is stimulating to the spirit, it can build up an appetite as we explore the mountain stream..in seconds there can be a drifting cloud who will with careless abandon change the weather clock. You are left wondering why you did not carry your jackets and raincoats..at that moment you remember your favorite hot 'chai' to bring the chatter back and enjoy the serenity and the music of the flowing n healing waters around you..!

Buddha Chat


The Buddha is an eternal figure not measured by years, by age or by the passing seasons. There are many Buddhas in our heart. One which can cry like a child in its acute sense of desire, it can weep when it loses an object or person of great love ! 
Life is a journey...a roaming ant, once in its curiosity came across a loose strand of hair of the Buddha. Surely it thought this must be the aging of mankind. It went to the Buddha and was surprised that even while he sat on his scanty grass mat, his body emaciated  with days of fasting, his eyes closed in deep trance,  there were still the heart beats of a free soul which could be heard.  !!
