The Decline and Renewal of Spiritual India for Westerners
www.christophertitmussdharma.org
In early February, 20I8, I completed my 45th year of teaching the annual retreats in India. I feel blessed to have had such an opportunity. The Buddha taught the Dharma in India for 45 years from the age of 35 years to 80 years. I have spent more than seven years in India since first arriving there in October 1967 after making the six-month overland journey from England. During the mid-1970s in my period as a Buddhist monk, I spent more than two years in the country from the Himalayas to very south of India. l listened ito a range of wonderful spiritual teachers and stayed in numerous ashrams reflecting, meditating and studying ancient texts, such as the Bhavagad Gita, the Upanishads, Advaita Vedanta and more.
