SCIENCE & BUDDHISM

Join us for a beginner-friendly talk exploring Buddhism and science through simple ideas from cosmology, quantum mechanics, relativity, neuroscience, and biology.

Designed especially for young students, this session will offer a gentle introduction to both scientific inquiry and Buddhist thought in a way that is slow, clear, and easy to follow.

The talk will be led by Kazuhisa Sasaki, an editor at a Japanese publishing company and former editor-in-chief of its science book division. Drawing from his experience in science publishing, he will help make complex ideas accessible for young learners and curious minds.

Coming Home: Dharma | Art | Nature is a seven-day immersive retreat facilitated by Tejal Shah, bringing together Buddhist contemplative wisdom with creative and embodied practices.

Through painting, ikebana, movement, singing, writing, meditation, and relational healing exercises, participants will explore awareness, silence, compassion, and the four seals of Buddha’s teachings in a deeply experiential way.

Weather permitting, much of our time will unfold outdoors in nature β€” contemplating, resting, creating, and reconnecting with what is most essential.

This retreat emphasizes participant-led learning, joyful exploration, reflection, and intimate group sharing in a small and intentional setting.

πŸ—“ 13/09/26 β€” 19/09/26
πŸ‘₯ Maximum participants: 16
🎨 Material contribution: Rs. 1000 per person

Applications are now open for the Monsoon Residency Retreat at Buddha Pada.

This is an invitation for writers, coders, designers, researchers, artists, remote workers, and anyone looking for a quieter way to live and work through the monsoon.

Come for 2, 4, or 6 weeks. Bring your laptop, your notebook, your practice, your unfinished ideas, your need for silence.

The residency offers designated workspaces with WiFi, private rooms, wholesome vegetarian meals, walking paths, a contemplative library, and quiet corners across the campus.

But more than a workation, this is a space shaped by Dharma practice, self-directed retreat, and contemplative living.

You can work deeply, read slowly, write honestly, sit quietly, and return to a rhythm that feels more human.

If you are looking for a season away from constant stimulation, this may be your place.

Applications open now.
