Mark Amaru Pinkham has been involved in the study and practice of natural healing for over 25 years.
He studied elements of Ayurveda (Hindu Medicine) for seven years in his 20's.
During this time he also attended massage school and became a Licensed Massage Therapist.
In his 30's he worked as a massage therapist while attending acupuncture school in Santa Fe, NM.
Afterwards, Mark studied at Hei Long Jiang College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Harbin, China,
He then went on to work as a Licensed Acupuncturist in both AZ and WA.

In the 1990's, after apprenticing with a Peruvian Shaman in the Inca Spiritual Tradition for over three years,
Mark realized that his diverse training had prepared him for an important part of his life's work,
that of reuniting Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Peruvian Shamanism.
He founded the 7 Rays of Healing System, one that he believes was once taught on Lemuria,
before being taken to China, Peru and India, where it merged with the indigenous healing traditions.

This ancient healing system is a comprehensive Gnostic healing system,
a part of the Lemurian-Goddess-Gnostic revival,
which is the mission of The International Order of Gnostic Templars.
