Gante was a really profound kind of life transforming revelation for me, and I came to Gante quite late in my life. At the time that he started with Gante, I had also begun to explore meditation. He is as learned in the Western classics as he is spiritually committed to his Hinduism. So Gante became a kind of a figure that through which I entered this whole different ethical universe. It opened up some dimension of spiritual growth for me that has been continuous to be really central in our lives.
