Content Advisory:
The Highest Pass and Road to Dharma include footage of Anand Mehrotra, who has been the subject of multiple public allegations of sexual misconduct. While there has been no legal adjudication of these matters at this time, the filmmaker acknowledges and supports the individuals who have come forward. The presence of Anand in any of our content and documentaries does not imply endorsement of him or his alleged actions. Furthermore, the content was produced and distributed years before the public allegations arose in 2026. More information at www.SafeHouse.yoga including a public statement from Adam Schomer.
