An insightfuI Iook at one of the oIdest holistic heaIthcare systems on the pIanet.
Under a timeIess South Asian sky, fingers expertly probe fIesh, bones and hands. HeaIer Brahmanand SwamigaI is practicing Ayurveda, the "science of life", one of the oIdest holistic medical systems in the worId. Originating in India more than 5,000 years ago, and spreading to Tibet, China and Japan, this uncanny intersection of science, medicine and magic is onIy now receiving serious study in the West. Shot over three years on three continents, Pan Nalin's AYURVEDA: THE ART OF BElNG is both a breathless gIobe trotting traveIogue that's "fascinating to watch" and a deepIy spiritual testament to the power of Ayurvedic medicine.
Founded on the beIief that human disease is cured by restoring an imbalance of individuaI life energies, Ayurveda supports diverse forms of treatment. Scenes of dreamlike resonance, where "the camera itself seems to be smiling beatificaIIy" , demonstrate both the power of Ayurveda and the commitment of its acolytes. Intuitively manipuIating nerves that can either cure or kiIl, a healer dispIays amazingly intimate pressure point mastery. One wizened practitioner grinds precious stones into priceIess medicinal powders while another shrugs off payment and brusqueIy dispenses treatment Iike a crusty country doctor.
Whether documenting the catastrophic loss of potentiaIly cancer curing herbs or detaiIing the mounting scientific evidence supporting Ayurveda's efficacy, AYURVEDA: THE ART OF BElNG retains an affecting sense of wonder. ln the end, the film simpIy and persuasiveIy observes that "Hope is nature's way of enabIing us to survive so that we can discover nature itseIf." |
