Sitting with Gangaji is not a class, it’s an EXPERIENCE of transformation.

If you are ready to open to a more conscious life of peace and fulfillment, then join us for this special virtual satsang.

In this intimate online gathering, Gangaji will begin by addressing one of the fundamental traps we fall into: idealization.

Like many of us, you can make the mistake of idealizing what your day-to-day lives will look like – what you will have, and how you will feel once you reach “enlightenment.”

You might imagine that you can and must manifest your personal happiness by altering your internal or external circumstances with some thing or someone.

You may hope that when the right partner is found, when your parents or children change, or when you have the right job making the right amount of money, finally, you will be okay. You will be at peace.

But in a moment of reflection, you know in your heart that simply isn’t true. Peace cannot be found in what comes and goes.

Gangaji offers a radical, life-changing invitation...

Right here, right now, exactly as you are, in the precise circumstances that you find yourself in, you can discover true and lasting peace and fulfillment.

You can discover the peace that is who you are, no matter where you are.

In the willingness to expose the idealizations that distract you, you have an opportunity to recognize that what you truly want is already here, whole and complete.

You can fully realize the core of peace alive in you. And in that, you immediately discover there is no gap between what comes and goes in your day-to-day life and the permanent reality of your being.

What does is it really mean to live your daily life out of the realization of who you are?

What does it mean to be true to your self?

During this special virtual satsang, Gangaji will share from her direct experience how it is possible to lead a meaningful, loving, responsible and fulfilled life each and every day.

Join Gangaji and together we'll explore how to:

  • Recognize and unravel your limiting definitions
  • Discover the capacity of your heart to face life’s hills and the valleys
  • Challenge your concepts of “enlightenment”
  • Stop overlooking the primal, ever-present innocence of your being

“Can life be lived as a regular human being, with all the ups and downs, and still be conscious and nurtured by the truth of who one is? Yes. Yes!” – Gangaji

About Gangaji

Gangaji shares a simple message: This is an invitation to shift your allegiance from the activities of your mind to the eternal presence of your being.

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. 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 pursued many paths to change her life including relationship, motherhood, political activism, career, and spiritual practice, but even the greatest of her successes ultimately came up short.

In the wake of her disillusionment, she made a final prayer for true help. In 1990, the answer to her prayer came unexpectedly, taking her to India and to the meeting that would change everything. There on the banks of the river Ganga, she met Sri H.W.L. Poonja, also known as Papaji, who opened the floodgates of self-recognition. In this meeting Gangaji’s personal story of suffering ended and the promise of a true life began to flower and unfold.

Today, Gangaji travels the world speaking to seekers from all walks of life. A teacher and author, she shares her direct experience of the essential message she received from Papaji and offers it to all who want to discover a true and lasting fulfillment.

Through her life and words, she powerfully articulates how it is really possible to discover the truth of who you are and to be true to that discovery. She is the author of Hidden Treasure: Uncovering the Truth in Your Life Story, The Diamond in Your Pocket: Discovering Your True Radiance and Freedom & Resolve: The Living Edge of Surrender.
