Gopi Warrier is a practitioner of Indian Ayurvedic medicine, a playwright, and a poet.
Life and career
Ayurvedic Charitable Hospital
In 2000, Warrier founded The Ayurvedic Charitable Hospital, with 30 beds, in London. [1] Warrier criticised the commercial aspect of Ayurveda clinics in Western countries, claiming that they were set up to trick people out of their money. [1] [2] In 2006, the hospital received a court order to wind up its activities due to insolvency, and the company was dissolved in 2012. [3]
Ayurvedic university
In 2004, Warrier, David McAlpine and Lady Sarah Morritt (trustees of the Ayurvedic Charitable Hospital) [4] founded Mayur, the "Ayurvedic University of Europe", in London; it offers a B.Sc. degree in Ayurveda. [5]
Ayurvedic restaurant
Warrier opened an “Ayurvedic restaurant” named Mantra in 2004 in the City of London. Rather than diners selecting dishes from a menu, the waiter would assess them and decide what food would be appropriate for them. [6] The restaurant abandoned this approach the following year. [7]
Plays and poems
Warrier is the author of three books of poems, Varaha, [8] and Lament of JC. [9] and "Tenth Incarnation".
Warrier has staged several plays in London [10] and Mumbai: God Sports, The Tenth Incarnation, Genesis of Karma -Three Faces of Evil, Siddhivinayak Saves Mumbai from Terror Attack. [11] "Ego of the Yogis - Searching for Spirituality in a Contaminated World" and "A Polyester Lordship" in London at the Steiner Theatre.
