Biographical Notes

Following receipt of a MA from Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, Guru Rattana earned a Doctorate in Political Science from the University of Geneva, Switzerland. Her thesis was the first study on international environmental co-operation. While in Geneva, she also worked for the United Nations Environment Program.

She went on to pursue an academic career, teaching International Environment and Development Studies at Dartmouth College, MIT, and New Hampshire College.

February 1977 she attended a lecture at Boston College by Yogi Bhajan, who was to have a profound influence on her life. He explained that with the practice of Kundalini Yoga anyone can develop a consciousness that liberates them from being controlled and manipulated. She realized that awakened consciousness is a necessary prerequisite for real political, social, and personal transformation.

Following the lecture, she attended her first 3 day White Tantric Course with Yogi Bhajan and soon began teaching Kundalini Yoga to her students at Dartmouth College.

In 1985 she moved to San Diego where she taught Philosophies of Life and European History at the U.S. International University. She lived in Palo Alto between 1994-1998 where she taught two Kundalini yoga and meditation courses: Your Life Is In Your Chakras and Balancing Male-Female Polarities at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. She was also invited to teach Kundalini Yoga at Stanford University as part of the Health Improvement Program. For many years, she taught at the Khalsa Woman's Training Camp and the 3HO Summer Solstice Celebration in New Mexico. She has lived and taught in San Diego since 1999.

Over the years, Guru Rattana has given hundreds of workshops and classes on personal empowerment, featuring Kundalini Yoga and Meditation. Her unique presentation incorporates a profound understanding of spiritual principles and human growth, and the transmutation of emotional energy into higher awareness. Each class is a milestone in consciousness.

A pioneering teacher, she uniquely synthesizes the basic techniques from the science of Kundalini Yoga and Meditation, incorporating insights from astrology, numerology, and principles from the internal martial arts - Tai Chi and Chi Gong.

Guru Rattana, Thank you for your encouragement. I am deeply grateful for the strong, clear spirit with which you sustain and invigorate us all. Your thoroughly sane and intelligent approach to spiritual practice and life in general is truly uplifting. It is a great tribute to Yogiji that he has spawned a generation of self-motivated, God-centered spiritual practitioners, such as you, who have benefited so much from his teachings that they are able to stand in their own strong and clear consciousnesses and serve as beacons of truth and light to new generations of seekers. –

Her life is devoted to experiencing higher meaning, feeling more and more alive, and establishing a spiritual connection with her Soul and the Divine. Thanks to her committed daily Sadhana, she is able to help others experience their own spiritual upliftment and Universal Connection.

Guru Rattana firmly believes that in higher consciousness and the heart, we can find solutions to all world problems. As we elevate our consciousness and become personally empowered, we transform our lives, relationships, and environments. Her life is devoted to helping people move beyond ego and fear to an experience of their Soul Self and the Divine in all life and to make their unique contribution to the world.
