John H. GANO III

I'm an only child from Pittsburgh and attended Clemson University.  I have had successful careers in athletics, commercial real estate, new product development and founded my own intellectual property company with 12 patents subsequently issuing in various technologies.  

I began my own spiritual journey consciously in this lifetime in 1987.  My spiritual studies include A course in Miracles, Christianity, David R. Hawkins MD, Phd., The 12 Steps, and Vedanta.  I have read and studied many other teachers and teachings on my journey as well.  

Visiting the Buddha Relics in Asheville NC a blessing from a Monk activated a Kundalini awakening that required many years before full worldly participation was possible.  I am forever grateful to Vedanta, Brother Shankara, Swami Sarvadevenananda, and Swami Sarvapriyananda for helping me to integrate these gifts.  Raised in Christianity, I was initiated in Vedanta by Swami Sarvadevananda and now am Hindu and Christian.  

My wife Liz and my greatest teacher.

Our dog Weezer!  He is in charge of general disruptions, barking at squirrels, falling leafs, and imaginary things outside.  Walks and car rides are his favorites.
