Its an unique place to stay and unwind in Bodhgaya . It is a learning institute for Buddhist way of life and well being. They have many courses which you can undertake and learn about mediation and how to lead your life better. There are volunteers from all over the world. The food is healthy and good. Its a little away from the crowded streets and the hotels, filled with chirping birds and squirrels. Check out online to know about more.

One of the most affordable, cleanest and peaceful place. You can always join the morning drop-in meditation sessions at the small Gompa. This place is a km walk away from main road, from where you can take shared vehicles for ₹5-₹10 to the main temple area. Korean temple is nearby. If you prefer walking around places, you can walk around easily to all the main attractions.

The best place to stay in Gaya, when considering their garden and the air. Yes, very dusty and bad air in Gaya everywhere.

Nie place with gardens, a meditation room and dining facilities. Great place to stay with good rooms. Personally, I think its a pitty people are talking in the dining room nowadays and I think the range and prices of the courses is questionable. Popular Buddhism, but purely recommended as a place to stay.

Review №26

A very nice meditation and quiet retreat center, in a walled garden setting just beyond the bustle of Bodhgaya, with a mix of eastern and western perspectives. Daily schedule of meditation and dharma classes, as well as longer immersions and yoga. Check their web site for full details and schedule.

This is a very calm and soothing place. I was the only Indian at the time of my stay at the root institute and i would encourage all those visiting bodh gaya to have a days stay at the root institute too. The volunteers are very helpful as well as warmly welcoming.

I really enjoyed my days at Root Institute. I was outside of the Season, beginning to mid of September as guest there. I highly recommend the Institut. I walked every day to the Mahabodhi Temple by foot. By the way it´s just 4km one way and you can use a mediation walk back and force.The rooms at Root are more than enough and the foot was better that i expected. the cook more western than indian .. so not really spicy and good for the stomache.I´m really sure, if i need to come back, Root will be my first address. Many greetings and best wishes to all volunteers i´ve meet and thank you so much for everything.

Root Institute in Bodhgaya is a Buddhist meditation center that offers an ideal place to learn and practice philosophy and meditation. This center was founded by two Buddhists monks, Lama Thubten Yeshe Rinpoche and Kyabje Lama Zopa Rinpoche. The center permits people of any nationality and religion to visit the center, study and meditate on the preaching of Buddha as per the Tibetan Mahayana tradition. Even the tourists who visit this place can stay here to learn and meditate. Located in a peaceful, tree-shaded corner of the holy place, the Root Institute offers different meditation courses, ranging from 2 days to 21 days. One can find accommodation services along with good food here. Visitors can catch-up with the short meditation sessions and yoga classes held every now and then. The Root Centre also runs a number of social welfare projects, which benefits Bodhgaya and the neighboring villages.

When I walked into the meditation center, I felt quiet and serene, and the whole mind settled down. When we went, the volunteers and staff members were doing the arrangement. The flowers on the handles were turned directly to us, so that we were touched by the beauty of the flowers and the hearts of the people! It has helped many poor children to attend school, from basic living etiquette and hygiene habits to mathematics and computer knowledge and knowledge, teachers are very careful! Worth funding! Also worth visiting!

It is a pleasant place to be and enjoy absolute tranquility and calm. Silence is the main attraction and more if they are in retreats. The people are very friendly and always willing to collaborate and solve the required questions. Classes are held in a spacious room and there is an English translation.
