Happy new year!


Thank you for everything 2020. We had many difficulties through 2020, our chirity school has been closed till now and guesthouse had opened last September however sitll we do not have guests due to lockdown. It is not only us people all over the world having the taugh time. But we are happy that we are healthy…

In India there are more than 10 million new cases of COVID 19 in last December, but the number of new cases per day is now less than the peak. Gradually Bodhgaya returning to normal situation and the World Heritage Mahabodhi Temple has been open for normal hours since mid-December. Domestic travel has also been made easier with the launch of new flights between Gaya and Mumbai airports from 25 December.

We hope that we will see the return of safe travel days and many new encounters and reunions.

It is said that after Buddha’s enlightenment, lotus flowers bloomed when he walked here.

Every year at this time in winter, Buddhist monks from all over the world gather here and the temple is crowded with them and tourists, but at present it is quiet. Although Bodhgaya, with its only tourism industry, has been hit hard economically, I thought this was a valuable time to see the Mahabodhi temple in its true form as a ‘temple’ and not as a tourist attraction.

We pray for your health and happiness from here in Bodhgaya.
