Master Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov was born in Bulgaria in 1900. He came to France in 1937 where he lived until December 1986. What is most impressive about his teaching is the multiplicity of perspectives under which this unique subject is presented: 'Man and his perfection.' Whatever the subject he touches upon, it is inextricably linked to the functions of man, with what he must do to better understand himself and to have better behavior in his life, and if the Master's word has such power, it is because he himself is the most vivid depiction of his Teaching.
