Ammaji, Yogacharini Meenakshi Devi Bhavanani

Yogacharini Meenakshi Devi Bhavanani, affectionately known as Ammaji, was born in the USA. In 1968, Ammaji travelled to India to study Yoga, met her Guru Yogamaharishi Dr Swami Gitananda Giri and became his Rishipatni, thus forging one of the most amazing Yoga teams of the past century.[1] A true Indian by heart, mind and soul, she received her Indian citizenship in 1992, an event that she describes as the proudest day of her life.[2]
