Be Your Natural Self
Lisa Schumacher

The morning after first seeing Gangaji on video at a friend's house in May of 1995, Lisa wrote this in her journal.

When Gangaji said “Be your Natural Self,” her transmission of impeccability and Love pierced my heart and I was overcome with an explosion of the bliss of Self-recognition. The Living Truth had been intimately spoken from inside of my heart to my heart. Truly, the moment of illumination is eternal. Beloved Gangaji takes everything false away until there is nothing left but Love Itself.

“A fire of Love was ignited and it burns to this day, nearly 30 years and half of my life later.”

“This is your resting place, your watering hole. Find what supports you, what includes you, and drink it in. Be nourished. Be enlivened. And when you feel thirsty again, drink some more.” —Gangaji
