Pratima Mumford

Pratima’s many experiences with LSD from the age of 15 created a profound desire to awaken spiritually and recreate those enlightening experiences but without the help of substances. She thus embarked on numerous spiritual journeys, hitch hiking around the world to study with Hindu gurus in India, Buddhist monks in Tibet and Southeast Asia, Native American Indians in the United States, shamans in SouthAmerica, and witch doctors in Africa.

For six years, she studied under her final guru, Papaji, in the Advaitic lineage of Ramana Maharishi and gave Satsang on his request for seven years worldwide. Additionally, she served as the Australian emissary of mystic physicist Nassim Haramein and travelled to Egypt, Mexico, Croatia, and Bosnia with him.

Pratima also created the handicraft industry of beadwork in Bali, where she lived for 29 years, working to empower over 300 local women by making them financially independent.

With a life long passion for astrology, she has read hundreds of charts, including that of David Bowie, and regularly provides global predictions at the annual Woodford Folk Festival.

Pratima also hosts monthly gatherings called "Turning Point Talks" in Mullumbimby, inviting inspiring speakers to share their insights.
