Dr. Aumatma Shah believes that health is SO valuable that it should be given as a gift. Moving beyond words and debate, she just started an experiment: Karma Clinic. At Karma Clinic, conventional and alternative medicine doctors see patients in need of healing the body, mind, and spirit. But there is no charge. Instead, each patient is given an opportunity to pay-forward for the person after them. Can such radical trust actually work? Dr. Shah thinks so. She believes that if something is truly serving the community, the community will step up to support it. Watch the inspiring gift-economy story of Karma Clinic!

    This is so inspiring in that it takes healing and health to the level that God planned it to be. A way for us to help each other and honor Him, without the limits placed on things by making them so tangible.
