Welcome
Welcome
There are moments on the spiritual path when we realise something quietly uncomfortable:
we speak about trust, freedom, and letting go — and yet inwardly, we are still holding on.
This short video extract (around 6 minutes) uses a simple story to reveal that reflex with warmth and clarity. It shows how the mind clings to its “branches” in search of security — and how, when real inner security is touched, nothing in life needs to be escaped.
The same life remains.
But the inner experience shifts — from panic to play.
You’re invited to watch and then pause for a moment of reflection.

Reflection
Take a moment to notice what stayed with you.
You might gently reflect on one or two of these questions:
What are my “branches” right now — people, roles, possessions, approval, certainty?
What happens when I stop asking these to hold me up, and instead touch the ground within myself?
There’s nothing to force or resolve.
Simply noticing the shift is enough.
If you enjoyed this exploration and feel drawn to go a little deeper, this theme is explored more fully in an upcoming in-person retreat:
Awakening Higher Consciousness — A Raja Yoga Retreat
Seabeck, Washington State (USA) • 7–11 May 2026
Set in a peaceful area overlooking the Bay, the retreat offers four days to reset and reconnect with the quiet centre of your being. Through simple meditation practices and clear insights, we explore higher consciousness as a lived, practical experience — supporting clarity, inner stability, and a lighter way of engaging with life.
Whether you’re new to meditation or already exploring spirituality, you’re very welcome. The environment is calm, the approach gentle, and the community warm and thoughtful.
