Manish Sisodia, the second eldest leader of the Aam Aadmi Party and former minister, has been keeping a distance from public events since the defeat in the Delhi Assembly elections. For the past few days, he was completely ‘disappeared’ and the phone was also shut down.
Now returned (Returns) Manish Sisodia has told that he was in Vipassana Center for the last 11 days (after 11 days). On the other hand, Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal is also engaged in Vipassana in Punjab. Sisodia said on X on Saturday, ‘Vipassana was at Vipassana Dhyan Camp in a village in Rajasthan for the last 11 days. Observation of silence, solitude, and your own inner self. The phone was also closed, completely chopped from the outside world. The camp was completed this morning.
Sisodia said that now he is making a comeback with new enthusiasm. He said, ‘I will return to Delhi by this evening, with new energy and new enthusiasm. And resolve – every child of the country should get great education. Good education makes every child not only successful but a better person. Humanization of education is also to be carried forward. The former Chief Minister said about Vipassana, ‘This is not just attention, a deep spiritual journey. Just 12+ hours a day to see your breath, just understand your mind and body without any response.
Seeing the same learning of Gautam Buddha, as he is really, and not as we want to see him. There is no dialogue in this journey. Neither phone, no books, nor writing, nor faced with no one. The first few days the brain runs, it is restless, but gradually time starts to stay. A strange peace begins to be born in the midst of every movement. Sisodia said that 75% of the people in the camp were 20-35 years old. When conversation on the last day, it was found that the race of success, tired life and inner restlessness have brought them on this path at such a young age.
His complaint was that in the education that made him worthy of this race of success, he would have taught the mantra to deal with this fatigue and these complications, then how happy the life of every educated person can be. The former Education Minister said, ‘I am happy that while being the Education Minister of Delhi, under the Happiness Course in schools, she was able to start #HAPPINESSCLASS for every child daily. This is a big step towards humanization of education, which was mentioned after spending ten days in Vipassana meditation.
