On A Train With Us In India

We used to embark on journeys to India with our students as pilgrims, searching for what we would refer to as the other half of the soul, a concept inspired by the profound writings of our esteemed mentor, Bede Griffiths. Our recent trip to India was especially poignant; it marked the first time in 26 years, since 1999, that we ventured without our students.

Although our intentions were different this time, we carried forward many of the invaluable lessons and practices we had cultivated throughout our pilgrimages. Along the way, we reminisced about some of those transformative experiences, and there’s one particular story we believe deserves to be shared.

If you had the opportunity to travel with us on a train through India, you would likely feel a wave of nostalgia while watching this video. There were numerous moments when we longed for the camaraderie of our fellow pilgrims, sharing in the depth and joy of the journey alongside us.

However, we must be clear: we have decided not to conduct our pilgrimage again. As the year unfolds, we’ll reveal the profound reasons behind this decision, shedding light on why we felt it was necessary to let go of leading these sacred journeys.

For now, we invite you to immerse yourself in our experience and travel vicariously with us through this captivating video.

In One Heart,
