If you find a job that pays you well enough, you could get a work visa.
There are religious visa, too, and then visa for NGO-people, charity-people, and so on. You could join some charity and help out there, in order to get a visa. Check with the Web Site of the respective Indian Embassy.
Have you ever been to India?
If not, perhaps rather take a lookg vacation, or a sabbatical of a couple of month before you decide to throw your job away and move there.
India certainly is an impressive experience, but different people get impressed in different ways,
It makes a great difference if you are a tourist on a five-star all-inclusive tour or if you are living there like the middle class.
Living in India causes a binary distribution if notions: Love it or hate it, and you better make sure that you will love it before you give up wour job.

That is a noble perspective. I commend you for thinking that way. I am not as brave but I also want to work while I stay.
