I Want To Leave Society, HELP PLEASE Options

Does anyone know of anywhere that I can go in the Himalayas or India so that I can live life free from people? A monastery would be acceptable. Just somewhere that I can have food, clothes, shelter, and freedom from interaction with anyone. Preferably somewhere on a mountain or in a mountain range.

I am serious. It has been my dream to live quietly in the East, alone on a mountain, and now it's my only option to keep me from killing everyone I know.

It's interesting, I was just talking with someone who had disappeared for four or five months, I asked where she had gone and she said the phillipines, I said "Family?" her reply was "Backpacking, finding myself." This is something I feel you should take into serious consideration, often it's not society we hate, but it's living in society non-stop for so many days and nights.

I think before going east and joining something like monastery you have to be very careful, yes it could work, but it could also be totally disillusioning and leave you feeling worse for the wear. One solution is as stated earlier, travel to a far away place, it doesn't even have to be eastern, and just start living alone, hiking every day into the woods, spending time in solitude. Another solution would be go out and find a group of people living around you who feel the same way, more than likely they already exist and form a community. There are many different ways to travel, if this is your dream, if it really is all you want, there's no other way you want to go, choose very, very carefully.
