Information and Instructions
Monthly Online Meetings with Gangaji
About our Meetings
Gangaji will meet with the group via the Zoom webinar platform. You will have the opportunity to raise your hand during a meeting to speak with Gangaji, and she will call on people as time allows. During the meeting you will be able to see Gangaji and also whoever she calls on, (as long as their video is enabled).
If you are going to speak to Gangaji on video we ask that your device (computer, phone, or tablet) is placed in a stable position and is not handheld. Naturally, it is helpful for Gangaji to see your face as clearly as possible. Also, please be seated in a quiet environment, away from background noise. See below for instructions on how to raise your hand in this virtual environment.

An hour before we are due to start you will receive an email with our Webinar link for the day. You can also go to your Member Portal to find the link to our monthly meeting and the numbers to call in by phone.
