Geshe Michael Roach was born in Los Angeles in 1952, and grew up in Phoenix, Arizona.┬а┬аIn 1975 he graduated with honors from the Religion Department of Princeton University, and is also a recipient of the McConnell Scholarship Prize from the UniversityтАЩs School of Public & International Affairs.┬а┬аHe has as well received the Presidential Scholar Medallion from the President of the United States at the White House.┬а
Michael is the first westerner in the 600-year history of TibetтАЩs Sera Mey Monastery, one of the largest in the world, to be awarded the degree of┬аGeshe┬а(Master of Buddhism), after completing the required 25-year course and public examinations.┬а┬аIn 1987, he founded the Asian Classics Input Project, which trains and pays refugees to digitalize the classic books of the East, and provides thousands of ancient manuscripts online without charge.
The ACIP project led to the discovery and preservation of several dozen ancient texts of yoga, and in 2003 Michael founded the Yoga Studies Institute to translate, distribute, and teach these authentic, ancient systems of yoga exercise.┬а┬аHis novel about a young woman who discovers and shares the deeper teachings of yoga,┬аHow Yoga Works,┬аis a bestselling classic found in many languages, in yoga studios around the world.
