Some connections don’t just comfort us.

Your job is what you DO.

Your work is knowing and believing in WHY you do it.

If you’re struggling to reconcile the two, inquire within. It’s worth the conversation. 💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏

Yoga is nature.

Surya Namaskar - Sun salutation too. I was bowing to great sun ☀️ and being exalted in it’s vitality at the banks of Ma Ganga. 🏞️

Yoga is just one big devotion to the gifts of life on earth that we often take forgranted.

Yoga is nature. 🌿

Tadasana — Mountain pose — took on a whole new depth in the presence of the Himalayas. 🏔️

Surya Namaskar — Sun Salutation — felt different too. Bowing to the great sun ☀️ on the banks of Ma Ganga, receiving its vitality in return. 🏞️

Yoga is a devotion to the gifts of life on Earth that we so often take for granted.

Yoga comes from nature.
Patanjali simply wrote it down.
Yoga helps us remember our true nature… which is nature itself.

Every pose felt less like exercise and more like conversation with the elements. 🌬️🌊🔥

The mountain, the river, the sun — all part of the practice.

Practicing yoga here felt like returning something to where it began.

Less doing yoga. More being yoga.

The body bows, and the Earth answers. 🌎

Grateful for the reminders. Grateful for the teachings.

Up, up, and away to Dharamshala in the mountains.

From the kirtan-filled devotion of Amritsar to the quiet rhythm of monks, prayer wheels, and mountain air at Tsuglagkhang Complex — home of Dalai Lama in exile.

We arrived on the Scorpio full moon.
The sound shifted. The air shifted. The altitude shifted.

The most narrow streets on winding bends with no guard rails — they must really trust the Buddha.

The Buddha, Gautama Buddha, realized that freedom from suffering comes through awareness, compassion, and understanding the nature of the mind.

Tibetans are here because, in 1959, the Dalai Lama and thousands fled Tibet after the Chinese occupation. India offered refuge, and this mountain town became a preserved home for Tibetan culture, spirituality, and art.

My first glimpse of the Himalayas is forever imprinted in my heart. I didn’t know how much I loved mountains until now.

For Tibetans, the Himalayas are sacred protectors — the roof of the world, guardians of spiritual life.
For many Indians, the Himalayas are the abode of the Divine — where sages meditate, where the Ganges is born, where earth meets heaven.

Vibrant, rich colours — nature elevated. Flowers adorning walkways, a fragrance soft and pure. Naturally, the food was next level, imbued with the synergy of the valley and the peaks, the rising heat and the coolness from above.

Everything built up, up, up.
More stairs after Goindwal had me quietly continuing the mantra.

Prayer wheels. Crystals. Thangkas. Puppies. Monkeys.

I really felt like the mountains wrapped around me. I was safe and cocooned. 🏔️💕🌱

It’s been a few days since I completed the steps at Goindwal and I continue to reflect on their significance.

The steps started working on me before I even left for this Yatra.
Do I complete them or not? For what, or for whom? Can I even do this?
Questions we might ask in so many areas of our lives.

On my journey through life, I’m learning of a bliss that comes when we lean into discomfort — the discomfort of our thoughts, our feelings, the very beliefs that lay the foundation for who we think we are and who we’re meant to become.

And that’s exactly what these steps represent.

84 steps. Reciting the Mul Mantra 11 times per step.

Mul Mantra (English):
There is One Reality. Truth is Its Name. The Creator of all. Without fear. Without hatred. Timeless. Unborn. Self-existent. Known by the Guru’s grace.

After each 11 recitations, you dip into the basin of water and then rise to the next step.
84 steps, soaking wet, and you get to witness — with compassion — how you show up to hard things, how you are more than your programmed mind and the stories you tell yourself.

At the halfway mark, when it started getting hard, I thought of a different loved one on each step, offering them my thanks and love for supporting me through this cycle of death and rebirth. When I thought of them, I saw and felt their radiant essence, and it filled my heart with gratitude and carried me through to the end.

From a Sikh perspective, the 84 steps represent the 8.4 million life forms the soul journeys through before this human life — the chance for liberation through remembrance.

In Kundalini Yoga, the repetition, the cold water, the rhythm, the effort, and the devotion become a moving meditation into deeper consciousness.

It took just under 5 hours, and the pain in my calves continues to remind me:

I can and will fight for my liberation.
Some days that is surrender.
Some days that is work.
I’m here for it.

Wahe Guru. ❤️🙏🔥🪽

As we had Saturn and Neptune moving into Aries in April this year, I had begun contemplating the words discipline and spirit and how they might converge in the year of the one (or 10 depending on your philosophy) - the year of the self and the radiant body respectively, and how they might speak to a different invitation for me to show up to myself this year.

More consciousness. Less pattern.
More embodiment. Less neuroticism.
More grace. Less fear.
More love. Less judgment.

I love the word contemplation perhaps even more than the word meditation because it gives room to breathe, to ask, to discover everywhere and endlessly, and this contemplation continues to unfurl like a rose in the coolness of the night.

Discipline is about disciple-ship, not the overwork and burnout we’re accustomed to in the west, where spirit gets circumvented- “tomorrow I’ll rest, “tomorrow I’ll play,” “tomorrow I’ll create.” All reflections of faith and spirit.

Devotion in action.

It has infinite forms.

Women gathering the sacred waters.
Simple stillness.
Children playing. Inner Children playing.
Reading scripture.
Upholding scripture.
Being in community.
Feeding community.
Loving community.
Breathing it in.
Singing.
Surrendering.
Serving.

Compassion. Awareness with passion.

Blessings to us all. Wherever we are on our journey. Whatever path calls. My wish is that we may listen, we may follow, we may seek, and we may find.

I didn’t go to the Golden Temple as a tourist.
I went as a nervous system.

And something inside me exhaled.

Thousands of people fed daily.
Everyone sitting on the floor, equal.
Heads covered. Shoes removed.

Safety is the foundation of love.
And you can feel when a place has built itself around that truth.

Insight matters.

The nervous system matters.

Development has an order.

Potential requires stability.

Before we map the system,
we strengthen the root.

💓 There’s a particular exhaustion
that comes from
understanding a pattern
and still living inside it.

You know where it came from.

You can explain it beautifully.

And yet… there it is again.

Patterns don’t persist because you’re weak.

They persist because they once protected you.

When safety updates, behavior follows.

That’s the work. 💓
