The story of Cinta Sinta is that of a remarkable overcoming of unimaginable adversity. Abandoned at birth in Singaraja, Bali and paralyzed with polio, her early years were spent in orphanages, hospitals and later living in a banyan tree with fellow orphans. These experiences have given her a vast compassion for her fellow humans, and an affinity for the natural world. Her life became full of encounters with high-level politicians, saints, sinners, sorcerers, governors, mayors, bishops, gurus and holy-men. She survived a deadly orphanage fire, an attempted murder, chemotherapy, was smuggled out of a hospital to avoid an unnecessary amputation, and is now healed of her polio.
