From Krishna's love to Buddha's silence
KrishnaToBuddha
KrishnaToBuddha brings together two dimensions of one journey. Krishna represents love, celebration and participation in life; Buddha represents silence, awareness and inner freedom. The invitation is to live fully, be aware and be free.
Its teaching begins with the life we are already living, our relationships, thoughts, ambitions and struggles, and asks how we can take part in it fully without losing inner awareness.
Anantpuram is the initiative's retreat space in Udaipur, described as a place to pause, reconnect and awaken.
