Important Notice:

I have stopped publishing articles here and moved to a new site Clarke Scott's website

Clarke Scott is a fully ordained Buddhist monk trained in the Tibetan tradition. A student of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, Clarke has received personal instructions—direct one-to-one instructions—on Madhyamaka philosophy and meditation from His Holiness. Recently Clarke moved to Tasmania to pursue a Ph.D in Buddhist philosophy from the University of Tasmania.

Arrived in Delhi

I’m sitting in my hotel room in Delhi as I write this. The flight was smooth although it seemed longer than the 16.5 hours. Luckily, I was able to score an aisle seat on both planes.

Walking out of Delhi airport into the waiting throng of Indians, wasn’t as bad as I had been led to believe. In fact, the Indians seem to be very kind. Having said that, my taxi driver had a bung eye which made him look shifty! I had a pre-paid ticket, but I wasn’t going to leave anything to chance so when he asked me where I wanted to go, I said to him while looking him in the eye: Centura Hotel, which I know is two minutes away from here. Needless to say the drive there was silent…was this my doing? I guess I will never know.

As I haven’t slept in 26 hours and it is still only 4.27 am I will probably leave this post here. Oh and I don’t have internet access until I get to Dharamsala, so you will probably end up reading this days later than the actual event.
