Escape Velocity. Breaking Free of What Holds You Back.
Dear Friend,
Occasionally I see social media messages from ex-colleagues in the Big Four firm I used to work and I’m surprised that they’ve stuck with it, despite making no real progress.
A promotion, a title change, more money and more responsibility, doesn’t necessarily do anything for the soul.
This is why, when given the chance, some people quit the grind and go off and do social work in South America, or train to be a yoga teacher so that they can stay in Ibiza all year round.
Whatever your own current circumstances, it’s useful to build up your escape velocity* to help you break out of a rut or an undesirable life situation when you need to.
*“Escape velocity is the minimum speed an unpowered object needs to break free from a planet or moon's gravitational pull and never return. [1]”
With your daily kundalini meditation, you’re stoking your escape velocity. The way it works, according to yoga, is through your state of awareness.
Normal human awareness can be envisaged as a 3-D state of awareness. Thoughtless awareness puts you into 4-D mode (turiya).
4-D awareness is not bound by 3-D constraints and so whatever may not be possible in 3-D awareness is so doable in 4-D.
Meditate to Manoeuvre. This is your ticket to ride. More below.

Best wishes
