Maharishi Bhardwaj Foundation

Our office is in the Sidhi Complex, which is located in West Patel Nagar. We are right in front of the Board Colony, so that’s usually the best way to explain where we are to anyone looking for us. West Patel Nagar is a very busy neighborhood with a lot of shops and people always on the move. The Sidhi Complex is an older building, and it has that typical commercial feel with lots of stairs and narrow hallways. Maharishi Bhardwaj Foundation operates out of one of the rooms here. It’s a bit cramped because we have so many boxes of files and extra chairs for when people visit. The walls are a bit scuffed and the ceiling fan makes a clicking noise when it’s on the highest setting. We usually keep it on though, because it gets very hot in the afternoons. There’s a lot of noise coming in from the street—horns honking and vendors calling out. It can be a bit distracting, but you learn to tune it out after a few weeks. We have a small desk for our computer and a larger table where we do most of the sorting. It isn't a fancy corporate office, just a local spot where we can get our work done without too much fuss. Most of our day is spent handling phone calls and writing up reports. It’s a busy life here in the heart of Patel Nagar.
