About

I am Sandeep Kulshrestha, a Buddhism Practitioner since 2005. As I do not believe in cults, I follow the wisdom traditions of all Branches of Buddhism that has something to offer. Besides doing Gongyo and activities for SGI, I also read Dalai Lama, the mindfulness practices followed globally and variety of meditations. If we get fixated to one belief system, we can't grow more. I practice largely at home and I feel happy and blessed.
