About this title

From the Publisher:

Gangaji is an American-born teacher and author. She travels the world, speaking to people from all walks of life, responding to the deepest spiritual questions of our time. Gangaji’s books and tapes celebrate the end of the search. They are a joyous welcoming home that lend support for living one’s life as a clear and conscious reflection of the truth of one’s being.

About the Author:

Born in Texas in 1942, Gangaji grew up in Mississippi. After graduating from the University of Mississippi in 1964, she married and had a daughter. In 1972, she moved to San Francisco where she began exploring deeper levels of her being.

In her personal search for truth, Gangaji pursued a spiritual path. She took Bodhisattva vows, practiced Zen and Vipassana meditation, helped run a Tibetan Buddhist Meditation Center, and had a career as an acupuncturist in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Despite her successes, Gangaji continued to experience a deep and persistent longing for fulfillment. She prayed for a final, true teacher. This prayer was answered in 1990 when she met Sri Poonjaji, a disciple of Sri Ramana Maharshi, on the banks of the holy river Ganga in India. In this meeting with her teacher, whom she lovingly calls Papaji, the true fulfillment she had sought throughout her life was revealed.

Today, Gangaji offers Sri Ramana Maharshi and Sri Poonjaji’s radical invitation to stop the search for fulfillment and enlightenment and to fully recognize the truth of one’s being, which is already completely whole, totally free, and permanently at peace.

Each year Gangaji travels the world, speaking to thousands of people from all walks of life. A teacher, mother, and grandmother, she is the author of, You Are THAT! Satsang with Gangaji, Volumes I & II; Who Are You? The Path of Self-Inquiry; and Freedom & Resolve: The Living Edge of Surrender
