A Review of ‘Aghori – Holy City Varanasi’ Documentary with Reza Aslan

November 3, 2022 //  by Kara-Leah Grant

I’m following a breadcrumb trail, and it’s led me to the Aghori. After the gruesomeness of watching the horror movie Midsommar last night – which is a nuanced and insightful look at grief, trauma, trauma-bonding, gas-lighting, ignorance, attachment, community and cults – I found myself on the FB group Tantrik Yoga Now on a post …

My Vision for Thames • Reflections from the Campaign Trail

September 21, 2022 //  by Kara-Leah Grant

Before I lay out the beginnings of my Vision, a quick update on the Campaign Trail. Feel free to skip down to the Vision! How’s the campaign going? He asked.

June 8, 2022 //  by Kara-Leah Grant

Can all triggers be healed (digested and dissolved)?

November 9, 2021 //  by Kara-Leah Grant

When I say that, given the right conditions, all triggers can be devoured, digested and dissolved, some people get upset and respond by saying that no, they can’t. They outline and explain their experience, stating how and why their trigger can not be devoured, digested and dissolved. This is attachment to triggers. This is identification …

Can you feel the love tonight? How about now?

November 2, 2021 //  by Kara-Leah Grant

It’s November. That means mid to late spring here in Aotearoa – the lambs have already been and gone, and so have the daffodils. But the trees are still greening up, and the mostly-steady heat of summer has yet to arrive. Can you feel the love? It’s also 2021. That means Covid-19, Lockdowns, vaccines and …
