Daniel’s Bio:

As most people grow up, there is a sense that there is more to life that what meets the eye. 

For me, that feeling was very strong.  I first turned to mainstream religion.  After a couple of years, it no longer satisfied me.  So with no real direction, I turned to drugs.

  After five years of using, I found myself a very angry person.  By the summer of ’96, I had a full-blown meth addiction.  During that summer, I over dosed and had a near death experience.  I then started having out-of-body experiences.

 Looking back at that time, even with all the frightening and painful things that were happening, I had no intention  of quitting.  It just happened.

 After a couple of weeks free from meth, I saw that using drugs was not going to fill the hole I was trying to fill.  That’s when I was introduced to meditation.

 In 1997, my life began to be devoted to finding Truth through meditation, seva and studying scriptures.  Over time, I found myself meditating five hours a day and experiencing numerous states of bliss.

 In 2005, I traveled for five months in India.  Most of that time was spent at ashrams and spiritual sites soaking up the teachings and essence of India.  Being in India led to an experiential knowing that what I was seeking all along is what I already am.  A seeker of God went to India but never came back.

 Once back in the states, I was hungry for satsang, reading every book on non-dualism and going to every satsang I could find.  I sat with Ramesh, Pamela Wilson, Mooji and Prakash.  In 2007, Pamela Wilson and Prakash invited me to start giving satsang here in the twin cities.
