Ayurveda
The Science of Living, Art of Being

Ayurveda

Sometimes it takes being at death’s door before you realize that health is life. There is no emotion quite like the feeling when you get a second chance to start over again, with a new lease of life like a fresh, blank canvas.

Ayurveda is the science of living healthily on all levels of being for as long as possible. Revealed by sages in India more than 5000 years ago, Ayurveda flourished into a great science where even the ‘miraculous’ was mapped out for everyone, any age, any culture.

Ayurveda is a medical system that empowers you to be your own healer; a user-friendly system that actually makes complete sense, incorporates all aspects of life and most especially is accessible to everyone. It is an honest system without hidden side-effects, a time-tested system that teaches you that the keys to ultimate health and contentment lie in your own hands. This is a mighty health practice that promotes full human expression through the integrated arts and humanist sciences such as yoga, prayer, art, literature, architecture, music, dance, gastronomy, astrology, sexology etc.

Ayurveda is the recorded source of Chinese, Tibetan, Unani medicine and complex modern day procedures such as plastic surgery. Ancient as it is, Ayurveda is poised to provide many missing links to today’s allopathic and naturopathic medicine, poised indeed to transform our modern healthcare as we know it.

Ring of Fire Book Launch – at Amandari Ubud, Bali

Ring of Fire Book Launch

Amandari, Editions Didier Millet and Dr. Lawrence Blair would like the pleasure of your company at the Ring of Fire Book Launch on Friday, 11 June 2010.

Ring of Fire

This fascinating odyssey began in 1972 with a 2,500-mile voyage through the fabled Spice Islands, in search of the Greater Bird of Paradise. A decade of further exploration followed, during which the authors lived among the Asmat cannibals of Papua and the healers of Bali, and encountered man-eating dragons in Komodo and the elusive “dream wanderers” of Borneo. With extraordinary courage, humour and passion for the unknown, the Blairs draw us into a magical land where ancient myths still flourish. Amid impenetrable rain forests, erupting volcanoes and startling natural beauty, the brothers have captured on film and in words the story of one of the most captivating and intriguing explorations ever made.
