About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Having realized the unsatisfactoriness and stress of the home life, seeing first-hand the unsatisfactoriness of the Electoral process, inspired by Gotama Siddhartha and taking sustenance from the religious institutions likewise inspired by him, have gone forth into a life of homelessness

ABOUT ME

Anatta

PHILOSOPHY

Every thing that exists is nothing but a product of the human mind

The present is a present, presented to present presents

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Having gone forth into homelessness, it would be helpful to have a house to stay in from time to time if visiting urban centres
