  • Transcending Phenomena & Living Life

    35:26|
    As spiritual practitioners, we often search for the “right way” to practice — the most effective method, the surest path. In this search, we look for guidance, support, and reassurance. Yet, in chasing after experiences — whether uplifting or challenging — we may overlook what is most essential.In this episode, we reflect on the subtle tendency to become caught in phenomena, and how practice points us beyond them, toward a way of living that is simple, direct, and free.

  • Transforming the Ordinary into the Sacred

    34:55|
    What if every moment of life could be approached as a sacred act? In this episode, we reflect on the role of ritual in shaping how we find meaning in the everyday. By seeing life as a ceremony made up of countless ritualistic gestures, we are invited to discover the sacred within the ordinary.This talk explores how meditation functions both as a formal practice and as a subtle, ongoing way of being — a means of living in harmony with the world as it unfolds.#sacredliving #ritual #meditation #experiencingmeditation #kriyayoga #selfinquiry #davidmcgrath #theyogisway #innerpeace #frameworkforliving #mindfulliving #spiritualpractice
  • Experiencing Meditation - Entering the Subtle

    31:45|
    In this episode, I invite you to explore meditation not just as a technique, but as an entry point into subtler layers of reality and self-awareness. As our practice deepens, we may become more familiar with the inner landscape - yet much of what we encounter remains beyond language and definition. So how do we measure progress in a realm where nothing can be neatly grasped or explained?This talk offers insight into the paradox of growth in meditation, where the most meaningful shifts are often the quietest and least visible.#meditation #experiencingmeditation #kriyayoga #selfenquiry #experiencethesubtle #mentalhealth #davidmcgrath #theyogisway #yogajourney #innerpeace #frameworkforliving #psychotherapy #meditativeawareness
  • Knowing What We Want - And the Pain It Brings

    35:51|
    The human experience is marked by a deep contradiction: we often know what we want, yet our thoughts, words, and actions seem to steer us away from true fulfilment. In this episode we explore the inner tension between our pursuit of satisfaction and the persistent undercurrent of discontent that shapes our lives.Why does seeking happiness sometimes deepen our suffering? Why do our efforts to feel whole leave us feeling disconnected? And how can spiritual practice help illuminate the question at the heart of it all: Who am I?An honest reflection on suffering, self-understanding, and the search for peace.
  • Restlessness and the Human Condition

    33:33|
    Life is a constant flow of movement and change — but what drives this movement at the heart of human experience? This talk explores restlessness as a core feature of the human condition. When left unexamined, restlessness leads us toward distraction and disconnection. Through self-understanding and the practice of Yoga, we can begin to recognise the roots of restlessness and learn to channel its energy in ways that cultivate clarity, focus, and inner peace.An invitation to meet restlessness with awareness rather than resistance.#restlessness #focus #meditation #kriyayoga #mentalhealth #davidmcgrath #theyogisway #frameworkforliving #experiencingmeditation #psychotherapy #yogapractice #selfenquiry #innerpeace
  • Discerning the Real from the Unreal

    24:21|
    This talk explores the subtle yet profound distinction between the real and the unreal as it is experienced through the human condition. Our thinking minds weave concepts, stories, and identities that shape how we see ourselves and the world — but beyond this mental framework lies something deeper, untouched by thought.How can we begin to recognize the real, when the unreal has so completely shaped our perception? This episode invites reflection on how we navigate this fundamental question, drawing from the timeless insights of Kriya Yoga, meditative practice, and self-inquiry.#viveka #therealfromtheunreal #kriyayoga #kriyayogaeurope #kriyayogaireland #yogaireland #yogadublin #kriyayogatherapy #meditation #experiencingmeditation #mentalhealth #royeugenedavis #tapas #paramahansayogananda #freetocelebratelife #davidmcgrath #theyogisway #frameworkforliving #psychotherapist #freetobe #yamasandniyamas #kriyayogapreparationcourse #psychoanalysis
  • Making Sense of Meditation

    32:34|
    Making Sense of Meditation: Why Meditation Doesn’t Always Feel Like ProgressWhen we sit down to meditate, we often expect peace, clarity, or a deeper sense of self-connection. But what happens when meditation feels frustrating, confusing, or even unsettling? In this episode, we explore the nature of meditation as a practice - what it involves, how to measure our progress, and what it truly means to cultivate skill in meditation. How do we navigate the ups and downs of practice and understand what meditation is really teaching us?#MeditationPractice #MakingSenseOfMeditation #KriyaYoga #YogaAndPsychoanalysis #SelfEnquiry #MentalClarity #YogaPhilosophy #MeditationJourney #TheYogisWay #DavidMcGrath #SelfAwareness #MindfulLiving
