Film: Ayurveda - The Art of Being

I recently saw this film documentary about Ayurveda, a 3000 year old healing practice from India.

This practice embraces many Eastern derived practices and may even contain the fundamentals of homeopathic medicine. In the documentary it is mentioned that the Ayurvedic healers were nearly wiped out by the British conquest. Some practitioners had their hands cut off by the Brits so that they couldn't practice. Nothing like Western civilizing influences...

Fortunately, Ayurveda is making a comeback. I even noticed that a certain Ayurvedic Massage technique shown in the documentary resemble a Scientology practice known as a "NERVE ASSIST", which is implemented to relieve stress and physical conditions.
