Lindsay Wagner, Actress and author
In her book, Maya introduces the Ayurvedic diet with a universal flavor and shows how to awaken Ahamkara (the memory of who we really are) through the proper use of wholesome foods. By understanding our individual body types, and using foods that best support and enhance each one, we are employing a powerful and essential method of attunement. I am truly grateful to Maya and a handful of other Vedic scholars who continue to devote their lives to sharing this knowledge with the rest of the world. A world that is in great need and which, hopeful, may finally be ready to receive it.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews   12 of 12 people found the following review helpful: Not for the beginner...., 3 Dec 1997 By A Customer Tiwari's book initially appealed to me as a natural leap, since I had read a good deal about the ayurveduc lifestyle by popular authors such as Deepak Chopra. But ayurveda is a rather complicated health strategem dependent upon an analysis of body type; if the reader is not intimately familiar with his or her own ayurvedic body type, the recipes will be almost impossible to apply correctly. And, ultimately, this is a cookbook. However, the author, who writes compellingly of her own life-threatenting illness and lifestyle change in the introduction, does a great job of illustrating how taking one's own health by the "horns" can produce amazing results. It's just very hard to relate to, and the references to Hinduism will be arcane to those unfamiliar with them. Nevertheless, I tried some of the recipes, and found them to be satisfying, even if some of the ingredients were hard to find -- even in my multi-cultural area. I would recommend this book only to those readers who plan to make a commitment to the ayurveduc lifestyle in partnership with an ayurvedic practioner, in which case this book will probably serve them well.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
