Ayurveda: Art of Being (2001)

Under a timeless South Asian sky, fingers expertly probe flesh, bones and hands. Healer Brahmanand Swamigal is practicing Ayurveda, the "science of life," one of the oldest holistic medical systems in the world. Originating in India more than 5000 years ago, and spreading to Tibet, China and Japan, this uncanny intersection of science, medicine and magic is only now receiving serious study in the West. Shot over three years on three continents, Pan Nalin's Ayurveda: The Art of Being is both a breathless globe-trotting travelogue and a deeply spiritual testament to the power of Ayurvedic medicine.
