Vital organs are not meant to be removed, but to function! Prevention, notdrugs, is the answer to our aging problems.Water Is DeceivingWhat is in a sparkling glass of water may look pure, taste pure, smell pure, but you will stillhave to drink it at your own risk.Here are pertinent suggestions:1. The water must flow from the purest possible source. Adequate safeguards must preventpollution of this source.2. Frequent surveys must be made to detect potential health hazards.3. An enforceable system of rules and regulations must prevent development of healthhazards.4. Proper safeguards must protect water quality from source to house.5. Only qualified personnel may operate the water supply system.6. The water source must have enough reserve to meet peak demands.7. Bacterial monitoring must be continuous.8. Only specified, scientific tests may determine water quality.9. Water with bacterial levels above precisely stated limits must be considered unsafe forpublic consumption.Consider, for example, Cleveland, which dropped thousands of pounds of nitrates andphosphates into Lake Erie, part of its metabolism. These wastes originated from homes,hotels, laundromats and offices. These wastes included, among other things, phenol, iron,zinc, sulfuric acids, ammonia, and hydrofluoric acid (which incidentally eats through glass).All this created complicated drinking water problems for Cleveland. And for most industrialcities.It's Time To Become AlarmedWe do not know from day to day just what pollutions may exist in our own water. There is,however, one way to be sure, and that is to distill your own water. You are then sure that youwill get the purest water possible.A Twin Cities ProblemI remember reading about a Coon Rapids, Minnesota, housewife who telephoned the statehealth department to report that water from her home well had a peculiar "foam" on it. Thatwas the first sign of a problem that later became one of concern to several million people inthe Twin Cities area.The "foam" came from surfactants, the active ingredient in detergents. Surfactants do notoccur in nature. Thus, when they are found in an underwater supply, their origin can betraced directly to sewage discharge.Nitrates become hazardous to formula-fed infants. Boiling water does not make the watersafer, it only increases the concentration of the nitrates.Nitrates-A Nebraska ProblemNitrates fed to our Nebraska soils-to increase our food supply along the Platte Valley-have9/18/13 5:28 PMpage 2
Page 13 of 15http://www.wlake.com/water/page2.htmbecome a health hazard to the longest-lived people in the nation. Since the water table ishigh, nitrates filter into the water supply for drinking purposes. Since 10 parts per million canbe fatal to a newborn child, it is time to become concerned. Our luscious valley, with its tall,waving corn, is rapidly becoming a death trap.Today, mankind has destroyed our soils, our water and our air. The lure for wealth has over-shadowed our gift of life. Through our soils we have opened the doorway to hosts of newinsects and plant diseases. Through our contaminated waters we are killing our wildlife andour babies in their cribs. The air is unfit to breathe. Life today is not living. It is merelyexisting. Where will it all end? Is it a problem for one of us, or all of us? "If our soils are sick, our plants are sick. If our plants are sick, our animals are sick and if ouranimals are sick, we humans become sick," says Paul Brinkman.Behind The CurtainAmericans during any year eat millions of pounds of beef from cattle that had "cancer eye,"or similar tumorous disorders. Thousands of cattle carcasses checked by federal inspectorsare held in meat plants until tumorous parts are whittled out. The remainder of the meat is puton the market.Millions of cattle carcasses are detained briefly in meat plants while parts are cut out becauseof other diseases and injuries ranging from adhesions to tuberculosis. The rest is just "fine"for consumption.In the meantime, federal regulations continue to permit meat processors to carve out infectedor damaged portions of animals, condemn the cancerous parts of cattle, and sell the rest ofthe meat on the market.Since the meat processors do not want to lose their profits, they would much rather feed thiscancer-ridden meat to the unsuspecting public as "U.S. Choice. "Eco-AgricultureI am happy to report that a new form of clean agriculture is gaining a toehold in the UnitedStates. It is being called eco-agriculture by the publisher of Acres U.S.A.-a journal laymanand farmer alike ought to read-and it relies on scientific principles as well as the practicalexperience of organic growers.Science has proved that plants with balanced hormone and enzyme systems provide theirown protection against insect and fungal crop destroyers. The seat of this balance is soilfertility, starting with a pH managed by keeping calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodiumin proper equilibrium. The trace minerals also figure since they are keys to properfunctioning of plant enzymes.The full package known as eco-agriculture can and does produce more abundant bins andbushels, and does it while improving nutrient quality in food for animal and humanconsumption. What a boon to agriculture and to the health of our nation.The people of Hunza do not use toxic chemicals. They grow from two to three crops peryear. There are no insects or diseases. Why not channel our research and educational dollarswhere they will do some good?The Wheel Of HealthWe live by the law of transformation. Transformation from the soil to the plant-from theplant to the animal or human, then back to the soil again, forming an everlasting cycle ofhealth. The dust of the earth then becomes the cells in our bodies. We live by the law of9/18/13 5:28 PMpage 2
Page 14 of 15http://www.wlake.com/water/page2.htminterdependence. No soul or body is an island by itself. It is a part of something else always.Therefore, we must first consider the soil, which is the mother of us all. We must becomeconcerned about the air above us, from which we cling to the "breath of life." The wateraround us must be pure and free of all inorganic minerals and chemicals. Every cell in ourbodies must be bathed in the purest water. Life is purity. We cannot live by "bread alone. "Air, water and sunshine are responsible for life and growth. Each of these gives something tothe other.Paul Brinkman, a former president of Queen Ann School of Cosmetology, so ably expressedhimself in these words: "Water cannot be destroyed, but it can be made sick! Man with hisadditives has defiled the laws of God. You can always expect something unnatural wheneveryou violate something natural."Mr. Brinkman became interested in distilled water especially since he was concerned abouthis diabetic condition. Imagine his surprise when he checked out sugar free. It likewisesurprised his doctor. According to any edition of Merck's Manual, the exact cause of diabetesis not known. The cause lies in the inadequate production of insulin by the beta cells of theislets of Langerhans. The cells are alive; it is just that they do not function. My inspiringteacher, Dr. Landone, stated that the mineral deposits enclose the cells with a mineral film sothey are unable to function. I am inclined to believe his conclusions because there has to be acause. Whether distilled water will cure diabetes is not for me to say. It is not within my fieldto diagnose; however, with the knowledge derived from my study of distilled water, I feelquite emphatic about its merits.There is much to learn about water. I have merely touched on a few pertinent facts of waterin its relations to vibrant health and longevity. The facts I gathered have proved themselvesto me. When men can live to the age of 120, 1 become alert! There has to be some cause. Iam convinced that the inorganic minerals and chemicals in water become a hazard to everyman, woman and child. The body must be free of sludge to operate efficiently. Theeliminating organs cannot expel all the deposits, so nature does the next best thing and tucksthem wherever she can. Since water is the greatest solvent known, it becomes the best agentto carry out that which is brought in.The test is very simple. Place a mirror or glass under a dripping faucet. Let it dry, andobserve the water spots. Then place this glass in distilled water. The distilled water willdissolve the water spots. This is what the whole story is about-this is the cause of all ouraging diseases. Dr. Landone cured his heart condition. Captain Diamond cured his arthritisand lived to the splendid age of 120 years. Could distilled water be the answer? If it is, howdifferent living in this world could be. Since we live but one, therefore. should. we not livewisely? The choice is clear-it is now up to you,Disease does not exist without cause. It begins where cause begins and persists where causepersists. Chronic disease means chronic provocation. Cure cannot take place until the causeof disease is removed. Symptoms may subside or be palliated and suppressed; a crisis maypass, but disease persists so long

When	President	Eisenhower	took	it	upon	himself	to	filch	$30,000,000	from	the
	deceived	taxpayers	in	order	to	help	force	more	poison	vaccine	into	the	resisting

children,	the	American	Medical	Association,	with	its	machinery	geared	to

money	making,	raised	its	loud	voice	in	opposition,	because	it	was	not	getting	all

the	fees. The	Bulletin	of	the	National	Health	Federation	(March,	1956)	stated:

The	A.M.A.,	however,	recently	attacked	the	public	health	officials	as	‘violating

the	principles	of	free	enterprise	in	medicine.’	The	House	of	Delegates	of	the

A.M.A. is	demanding	that	all	free	inoculations	stop	and	that	the	task	be	turned

over	to	the	doctors	on	a	fee	basis. This	gives	us	an	idea	of	what	American	Free	Enterprise	means. It	merely	means

that	the	trusts	are	tree	to	exploit	the	people	and	if	someone	else	wants	to	do	the

same—the	fight	is	on. If	someone	wants	to	stop	the	exploitation	and	warn	the	people,	the	money	trusts

in	power	"squelch"	them—if	they	can. In	1946,	during	one	of	our	most	serious	polio	epidemics	in	Los	Angeles,	I	wrote

a	book	called	POLIO	CONTROL	in	which	I	denounced	the	"virus	theory"	and

named	vaccination	as	one	of	the	causes	of	polio. The	medico—drug	trusts	had

their	stooges	working	for	two	years	trying	to	get	something	legal	on	which	to	put

the	book	out	of	circulation. I	had	had	a	lawyer	go	over	the	manuscript	before	I

had	it	printed	and	I	had	the	Post	Office	examine	the	printed	book	to	be	sure	it

was	in	order	and	nothing	was	said	that	was	against	the	law. The	lawyer	said,	"The	book	is	dynamite	but	it’s	well	documented	and	entirely

within	the	law." When	the	"medical	opposition"	couldn’t	get	anything	on	me

lawfully	they	used	unlawful	measures	and	had	their	stooges	in	the	Post	Office

bar	the	book	from	the	mails. No	jury	trial	was	permitted	and	no	testimony	of

mine	was	accepted. Their	charge	was	that	the	"book	was	dangerous	because	it

disagreed	with	accepted	medical	belief." So	the	book	went	out	of	circulation,	but

not	before	two	editions	had	been	sold	to	all	parts	of	the	world—mostly	to

drugless	doctors. The	medical	trust,	through	their	hirelings	in	the	Better	Business	Bureau,	had	not

let	the	newspapers	sell	me	even	one	inch	of	advertising	space	for	fear	the	people

would	learn	the	truth. One	of	the	large	newspapers	in	Los	Angeles	said	to	me,

"We	think	you	have	a	good	book	but	our	hands	are	tied;	if	you	can	get	the	OK	of

Mr. Sample	of	the	Better	Business	Bureau	we	can	take	your	ad." When	I	talked
	to	Mr. Sample	and	"downed"	all	his	arguments	with	proof	of	the	damage	done	by

vaccination	and	all	the	case	histories	of	polio	from	vaccination	etc. he	merely

said,	"If	you’re	right	then	a	lot	of	other	people	are	awfully	wrong." But	he	still

refused	to	allow	the	papers	to	advertise	my	book. The	years	went	by	and	many	doctors	in	various	parts	of	the	world,	England,

Australia,	France,	United	States,	etc. learned	that	viruses	did	not	cause	polio	and

that	the	disease	occurred	in	patients	soon	after	vaccination,	and	in	the	limb	in

which	the	injection	had	been	given. Many	lives	would	have	been	saved	if	my

book	could	have	reached	the	people. But	selfish	medical	interests	destroyed	it

because	of	information	that	has	since	then	been	proven	to	be	true. It’s	hard	to	say

what	they	will	try	to	do	to	this	book. But	whatever	they	attempt	is	likely	to

boomerang	and	explode	right	under	their	plot. WHAT	HAPPENS	TO	THE	"MARCH	OF	DIMES"? In	a	letter	from	R.	N.	Newcomb	to	LIFE	magazine	(Aug.	1949)	the	question	was

Fruit plays an extremely important role in FIT FOR LIFE. We're not
going to tell you anything outlandish, like the enzymes in certain fruits
burn fat so that you feel you have permission to overeat anything you
want and then burn it away with irrational quantities of fruit. That would
be not only irresponsible but also a physiological absurdity. One of the
foremost roles that fruit plays in FIT FOR LIFE is that of resting the di
gestive tract, thereby freeing up energy to be utilized in cleansing, repair,
and weight loss. Obviously, proper food combining and the correct consumption of
fruit deal extensively with not only what you eat but also when. If someone were to ask you what you thought was the worst time of day
to eat, I wonder what you would say. Probably "Right before going to
sleep," as so many other people think. Even though eating right before
going to sleep is a horrible habit, it's second to the most counterproduc
tive and destructive time of day to eat. And that time is in the morning
when you awake. WHAT? I can hear your shrieks of disbelief from here. "But what about all those admonitions about having a hearty breakfast for
energy?" What about them? Do you know what the all-American coffee
break is in this country? People eat a big, hearty breakfast "for energy,"
and the body is so tired from the work of digesting it that "pick-me-ups"
are the only way people can make it through to lunch without falling
asleep! I know what a tremendous blow this is to one of the most condi
tioned and deep-rooted belief systems. THE PRINCIPLE OF CORRECT FRUIT CONSUMPTION • 55 Just for a moment try to forget everything you thought was true about
breakfast. Try to forget for a moment all the advice of the nutritionists,
dietitians, doctors, and other experts. Just for a moment rely only on your
own common sense for an answer as to whether breakfast has a positive or
negative influence on your weight. Remember, ENERGY IS THE ESSENCE OF LIFE. When you wake up in
the morning, you are rested and at the height of your energy level for the
day, provided that your system did not spend the night contending with a
"midnight snack" or miscombined meal. On what are you going to ex
pend that morning burst of energy? A "hearty breakfast"? You know that
digestion uses an enormous amount of energy. A hearty breakfast, which
is usually a slap in the face of the principles of proper food combining,
cannot bring you energy! IT USES IT! How else could the food be digested
if energy were not being expended? Most traditional breakfasts of toast
and eggs, or cereal with milk, or meat and potatoes are ill-combined,
forcing the body to work for hours spending its energy. Food spends ap
proximately three hours or more in the stomach alone if properly com
bined. Energy can't even start to be built until food is absorbed from the
intestines. Strictly from the standpoint of energy, does it make sense to
have breakfast when you wake up in the morning? If breakfast is skipped,
not only will you not pass out from lack of food (your body is actually still
using the food eaten the day before), but you will be far more alert and
energetic. The word breakfast is actually a distortion of the words break and fast. Originally the word breakfast was used to indicate the meal used to break
a fast. A fast is the abstention from food for an extended length of time,
not one night's sleep. An integral part of FIT FOR LIFE is this: FROM THE TIME YOU WAKE
UP IN THE MORNING UNTIL AT LEAST NOON, CONSUME NOTHING BUT
FRESH FRUIT AND FRUIT juiCE. F,at or drink as much as you desire; put
no limitations on how much you want. If you desire it, have it; but listen
to your body—don't overeat! If you have nothing but fruit and fruit juice,
you will be able to create, not burn up, a huge chunk of your available
energy for the day. Fruit demands practically no energy to be digested,
because it does not digest in the stomach. It needs no further digestion if
well chewed. The intestines are where all nutrients are absorbed. Because fruit finds
its way into the intestines within minutes instead of hours, its nutrients
are immediately absorbed and utilized by the body. By eating fruit you
make your entire day more productive and more energetic, because you
have conserved rather than squandered your energy. You will be amazed
at what an incredibly dramatic effect this will have on your entire life
5b • FIT FOR LIFE once you adjust to ONLY FRUIT AND FRUIT JUICES UNTIL NOON. After
experiencing the wonderful benefits, you will wonder why you ever ate a
heavy meal first thing in the morning. A heavy breakfast means a heavy
day. A light breakfast means a light, vibrant day. You can eat as much
fruit as you want during the morning, right up until about twenty to
thirty minutes before you eat something else. Once you have eaten an
other food, three hours should elapse—at least—before anything else is
eaten. Once again, listen to your body. When your stomach is empty,
you can have more fruit. Literally thousands of people from my seminars have stopped eating
heavy foods in the morning and have just fruit and fruit juice. They have
made incredible turnarounds. Many of them come to me and say, "Lis
ten, you know when I first heard this, I was a big breakfast eater, but I
was willing to at least try what you said and then go back to eating break
fast." They didn't, they couldn't go back to heavier breakfasts. If you want
to know what it feels like to swallow an anvil, all you have to do is eat
exclusively fruit and fruit juice in the morning for about ten days, and
then try to go back to having a heavier meal in the morning. You simply
won't do it. Yes, perhaps you will on occasion, and that is certainly
okay. Because occasionally is one thing. Every day is something entirely
different. The consumption of exclusively fruit and fruit juice in the morning is
at the very heart of FIT FOR LIFE. Interestingly, many people have told
me that although they don't adhere to the program exactly all the time,
the one thing they do most consistently is adhere to the exclusive con
sumption of fruit and fruit juice before noon, because with that alone
they still reap enormous benefits. It is without question the major con
tributing factor to the success of FIT FOR LIFE. If you are going to start
with only one principle, this should be it. FRUIT EXCLUSIVELY IN THE
MORNING. Some people think that a lot of fruit and fruit juice is fattening. The
only time fruit can cause any negative manifestations at all is when it is
altered by heat or incorrectly combined, meaning consumed with or im
mediately following any other food, WHEN EATEN ON AN EMPTY STOM
ACH, FRESH FRUIT CAN HAVE ONLY A POSITIVE EFFECT; IT
ACCELERATES WEIGHT LOSS. When we tell people they can freely eat
more fruit than usual and make this a habit in their lives, some of them
initially express concern over the amount of calories they are taking in. Calories are enemies only if they are consumed in foods that are highly
processed or ill-combined. High-quality calories, those found in high-
water-content food, are not going to add to your weight problem. They
will furnish the energy to do away with it. THE PRINCIPLE OF CORRECT FRUIT CONSUMPTION • 57 I have always found calorie-counting to be such a bore. It is a depress
ing way to determine what to eat. I implore people to forget about calo
ries and think of high-quality food. Calorie-counting is a very antiquated
and ineffective means of trying to regulate one's weight. It looks viable in
theory, so does the theory that the sun orbits the earth. Calorie-counting
is an unrealistic gauge by which to measure one's progress. That is why
so many calorie-counters do not find the results they are looking for, even
though they diligently count their calories. I remember once going into a very nice restaurant in Palm Springs for
breakfast. This establishment prided itself on the fact that everything on
the menu had the number of calories indicated next to it. Here is why
calorie-counting is practically worthless: I worked out two possible break
fasts from the menu. Both had three items. One was 220 calories, the
other 190. Well, if I were operating under the delusion that a calorie is a
calorie is a calorie, and I should eat fewer at a meal whenever possible, I
would have opted for the breakfast of 190 calories. But understanding the
principles of Natural Hygiene as 1 did, I unhesitatingly had the

G. A. Vojtovich, created his method of fractional
fasting along the same lines.
However, the great architect of the widespread
propagation of therapeutic fasting was the psy-
chiatrist Yuri Nikolayev (1905 -1998): to him we
owe the approval and the introduction of the
method (for which he coined the name Razgru-
zochno -dieticheskaja terapiya, abbreviated as
RDT – Diet -fasting therapy) to the USSR’s state
health system. The documentary Le jeûne une
nouvelle thérapie, made in 2011 by the French
director Thierry de Lestrade and the journ alist
Sylvie Gilman, translated into Russian under the

pays tribute to the work of this courageous doc-
tor.
Yuri Nikolayev was born into a family of estab-
lished vegetarians, lovers of yoga and oriental
philosophy. According to Nikolayev himself, his
parents were in close contact with Lev Tolstoy,
the most famous vegetarian in Russia, and his fa-
ther corresponded with the American writer
Upton Sinclair, a fervent supporter of the hy-
gienic cause and author of the book The fasting
cure. Besides, he was also busy translating Her-
bert Shelton's books into Russian.

was published on YouTube in April 2017.
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frYoung Yuri’s ideas and position took shape in
this fertile soil. He started his career as a doctor,
served as a military doctor after graduation, and
was a student under the famous academic M.O.
Gurevich in the psychiatric clinic of the First In-
stitute of Medicine in Moscow in 1939 - 1941.
His interest in fasting was likely to have been
initially stimulated by the family environment,
was later consolidated thanks to the contribu-
tion of Prof. Bakulev, President of the Academy
of Medical Sciences of the USSR. In 1956, Prof.
Bakulev published an article titled Po povodu od-
nogo metoda lecheniya  (Regarding the treatment
method) in the journal "Meditsinskij rabotn ik"
(The medical worker). The article described a
successful experiment in the treatment of
chronic diseases with fasting, specifically some

denal ulcers after a 12- day water  fast.
It must be said that discussion of "fasting" in the
USSR of the 50s and 60s was certainly difficult.
The specter of hunger was still very much alive
in the country. The nine hundred days of the
Nazi siege of Leningrad, with thousands of
deaths from starvat ion and numerous incidents
of cannibalism, as well as the challenging post -
war years characterized by scarcity of food had
left a profoundly mark on the collective uncon-
scious of the Soviet population and the memory
of deprivation had not subsided in a lit tle over a
decade. However, Prof. Bakulev was able to di-
rect the attention of the scientific and medical
community to the possibility of applying thera-
peutic fasting, and Nikolayev was certainly
Copyright © Vera Giovanna Bani 2019 www.dryfasting.infoThis Ebook was purchased by Gilberto Franchi email: gilbertofranchi@hotmail.frdeeply impressed. So much so that he too, in his
psychiatric practice, found constants worthy of
interest. He wrote:
"I noticed that some schizophrenia pa-
tients often give up eating and resist when
they are force -fed. I wondered if this renun-
ciation of food was not perhaps an instinc-
tive reaction to the sick organis m's defense.
So, I tried to treat these patients with a par-
adoxical method: the dosed fast”
In the late 1940s -1960s, Nikolayev intensified
his observations of schizophrenia patients who
became the object of his doctoral thesis, pre-
sented in 1960 under the title Razgruzochno- di-
eticheskaja terapiya shizofrenii i ee fiziolog-
icheskoe obosnovaniye  (RDT diet -fasting therapy

kolayev's selflessness in his work of furthering
therapeutic fasting would not have been success-
ful, had it not been for a decisive stroke of luck:
Nikolaeyv’s wife, also a psychiatrist employed in
the rehabilitation of alcoholics, happened to
handle the case of Lev Bulganin, son of an im-
portant man of t he party, the Chairman of the
Soviet Council of Ministers, N.A. Bulganin.
The Nikolayevs both treated the illustrious pa-
tient together and managed to cure him by ap-
plying the method of therapeutic fasting. The
powerful N.A. Bulganin, wishing to express gra t-
itude for his son’s healing, assured Dr. Nikolayev

his observations.
Using fasting to treat thousands of cases of
schizophrenia and other psychic disorders, he
noted that, by eradicating the disease at the root,
fasting could heal several diseases simultane-
ously. Thus, with copious clinical results in hand
and the protection of the high -ranking official
Bulganin, Niko layev soon succeeded in intro-
ducing therapeutic fasting into clinical practice,
thus contributing to its approval by the Soviet
Ministry of Health.
In 1961, Nikolayev was appointed director of
the psychiatry program at the Rostov -on-Don
Medical Institute. During the two years in this
position he had managed to set up a school of

merous colleagues.
In the decades that followed, Nikolayev worked
in Moscow at the Soviet Scientific Research In-
stitute of Psychiatry an d coordinated the work of
the numerous fasting wards that had been
opened everywhere throughout the Soviet Un-
ion.
The development of the method benefited im-
mensely from the collection Problemy
lechebnogo golodaniya (Problems of therapeutic
fasting), published in Moscow in 1969. It com-
prised the contribution of scientists such as P.K.
Anokhin, A.A. Pokrovskiy, P.A. Fedorov, in ad-
dition to Nikolayev. It comprised approximately
sixty articles dedicated to therapeutic fasting in
psychiatric practice, to the neu rophysiology of

pathophysiology of fasting. Nikolayev himself
spoke of the growing interest and fervor in the
studies in the introduction to 1988 edition of his
book Golodaniye radi zdoroviya  (Fasting for
Health), published for the first time in 1973 with
200,000 copies.
At the end of the 1990s, the Republic of Burya-
tia hosted a pilot experience to introduce fasting
dietary therapy (RDT) in the practice of medical
and hospital facilities at the state level. Under the
scientific direction of Prof. A.N. Kokosov, a
training program for RDT specialists was estab-
lished in the republic, with lectures, seminars
and conferences on the method aimed at both
doctors and health personnel, and the interested
public.

Eckhart Tolle
Eckhart Tolle is a world-renown spiritual teacher and the author of the
books “The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment” and “A
New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose”, both of which have sold
in the millions.His work, which has been influenced by a wide range of spiritual
teachings, is centered on the recognition that the now is all that there is.
Here are 30 pearls of wisdom from Eckhart Tolle:
1. Instead of reacting to the content that arises in your life—thoughts,
external events, other people, the scenery, and so on—, allow the content
to be. That is, instead of identifying with what arises in the now, become
aware of the now itself, beyond the phenomena that arise in it. To become
aware of the now itself means that you become aware of the stillness that
underlies everything.
2. Becoming aware of the now also means realizing that you are the now,
or noticing the “observer” that witnesses life’s events with detachment,
and without being possessed by them.
3. The underlying stillness is underneath and between all of your
thoughts. In fact, it surrounds all of the content in your life.
4. Meditating in the morning will help you to begin the day in the
undercurrent of stillness.
5. Most people are not aware of the field; they’re only aware of what
happens in the field. In fact, it’s not just that they’re only aware of what
happens in the field, but they identify with what happens in the field in
their search for self.
6. Fear of loss is when you identify with part of the content—withsomething in the external world–, and you think that if you lose it, you’ll
lose part of who you are. For example, when you tell yourself that without
this or that, “I’m no one”.
7. You’ll live in a state of continuous joy, no matter what arises, when you
realize that what arises isn’t that important. What arises is just
consciousness playing with form.
8. Become a participant in the play of form by creating without self-
seeking; when you create without self-seeking, you’ll create beautifully.
However, when you create and there’s self-seeking in it—when you tell
yourself “I need”, “I want”, or “I must have”–, then you infuse the
creative energy that is flowing through you with negativity.
9. The power of consciousness flows through you, and it loves to create;
simply let it flow.
10. Think of the last time you were in a traffic jam; you felt stressed
because you needed to be at “X” place, but you weren’t moving. However,
the same spaciousness that is easy to become aware of when you’re
contemplating nature, for example, surrounds even this event which we
call a “traffic jam”. Shift your awareness from “traffic jam” to
spaciousness.
11. You find the spaciousness surrounding any event simply by allowing
that moment to be. Say “yes” to anything that happens, instead offighting or resisting what is. What’s the point of saying “no”, if it is?
Simply tell yourself, “It is what it is”. When you do this you become aware
of a dimension that is deeper than the event that’s taking place.
12. If you get angry about something that’s happening around you, do the
same thing; simply say, “Here’s the energy of anger; it is what it is”. Of
course, it’s much easier to notice the stillness that surrounds something
such as a flower, than it is to notice the stillness that surrounds anger.
However, the stillness surrounds everything, even strong emotions such
as anger.
13. True surrender does not mean to passively put up with whatever
situation you find yourself in, and to do nothing about it. It doesn’t mean
to stop making plans or initiating positive action. Surrender is about
yielding to, rather than opposing, the flow of life.
The only place in which you can experience the flow of life is in the now.
So, to surrender means to accept the present moment, unconditionally,
and without reservation. It’s relinquishing any resistance to what is.
14. Thinking that you are the physical form that you’re occupying, with its
psychological make-up, and the stories that it tells itself about who it is
and what has happened to it during its lifetime, is an illusion.
15. Know yourself as something that is beyond form. To lose yourself in
some form is suffering.16. Every time that you react to a form that arises in the stillness or the
spaciousness that exists around everything that there is, you identify
more and more with the world of form.
17. An exercise that Eckhart Tolle recommends in order to become more
aware of the present moment is to stop a few times throughout the day
and look around the room you’re in as if you had just been born into that
room, even if it’s just for a few seconds. Simply allow your entire self to
be present and alert in the room, and enter the moment more fully. Don’t
think about what you’re looking at; just look at it.
18. Most of your suffering is self-created. Almost all suffering arises out
of your interpretation of something that is; that is, it comes from your
thoughts about the situation, not from the situation itself.
19. There comes a point in which a person says, “I’ve suffered enough”,
and at that point they’re ready to listen to the message that there’s
another way to live. There’s another way to live that does not create
further suffering. This way of living is when you stop mentally arguing
with what is, and when you stop identifying with the world of form and
with the mind-created self.
20. When you stop inflicting suffering on yourself, you’ll stop inflicting
suffering on others.
21. You’ll never be able to arrange the world of form exactly as you wantit, and you’ll never be able to accumulate all of the forms that you think
that you need in order to be yourself, if you identify your sense of self with
the world of form. It’s in the nature of the world of form that nothing
stays fixed for very long.
22. The world of form will never make you feel complete and happy. Stop
demanding that people, places, and situations make you happy and fulfill
you. You need to go deeper, instead of staying at the surface.
23. When you see the inability of the world to make you happy, and when
you notice the short-lived nature of whatever forms you encounter, you’ll
begin to step out a state of unconsciousness and start to become more
enlightened.
24. Accept what is. If someone cuts you off in traffic, it’s like a sudden
gust of wind. You don’t personalize a gust of wind, so don’t personalize
the fact that another car just cut in front of you. It’s simply what is.
25. The ego is habitual and compulsive thought processes that go through
your mind continuously. It’s about being trapped in thought and in
mental noise.
26. Even your mental chatter is surrounded by stillness; simply tell
yourself, “I’m full of mental noise, and that’s OK.” This will allow you to
move beyond it.
27. The pain-gap is the gap that exists between your rigid expectations ofhow things should be, and the way things are. Acceptance of what is
releases you from the discomfort of the pain-gap.
28. Whatever you think that the world is withholding from you, you are
withholding from the world. Give to the world, and to


 and be used by the body’s chemistry. Tomake them soluble, enzymes break down the proteins, separating the individualamino acids one from the other, because amino acids are soluble. Enzymes thatdigest proteins work as though they are mirror images of a particular amino acid.They fit against a particular amino acid like a key fits into a lock. Then they breakthe bonds holding that amino acid to others in the protein chain, and then, what Ifind so miraculous about this process, the enzyme is capable of finding yet anotheramino acid to free, and then yet another.
So with sufficient churning in an acid environment, with enough time (a few
hours), and enough enzymes, all the recently eaten proteins are decomposed intoamino acids and these amino acids pass into the blood where the bodyrecombines them into structures it wants to make. And we have health. But whenprotein chains are heated, the protein structures are altered into physical shapesthat the enzymes can’t “latch” on to. The perfect example of this is when an egg isfried. The eggwhite is albumen, a kind of protein. When it is heated, it shrivels upand gets hard. While raw and liquid, it is easily digestible. When cooked, largelyindigestible.
Stress also inhibits the churning action in the stomach so that otherwise
digestible foods may not be mixed efficiently with digestive enzymes. For all thesereasons, undigested proteins may pass into the gut along with the undigestedstarches. Starches convert best to sugars under the alkaline conditions found inthe mouth. Once they pass into the acid stomach starch digestion is not asefficient. If starches reach the small intestine they are fermented by yeasts. Theproducts of starch fermentation are only mildly toxic. The gases produced byyeast fermentations usually don’t smell particularly bad; bodies that regularlycontain starch fermentation usually don’t smell particularly bad either. In otherwise
healthy people it can take many years of exposure to starch fermentation toxins to
produce a life-threatening disease.
But undigested proteins aren’t fermented by yeasts, they putrefy in the gut (are
attacked by anaerobic bacteria). Many of the waste products of anaerobicputrefaction are highly toxic and evil smelling; when these toxins are absorbedthrough the small or large intestines they are very irritating to the mucousmembranes, frequently contributing to or causing cancer of the colon. Proteinputrefaction may even cause psychotic symptoms in some individuals. Meateaters often have a very unpleasant body odor even when they are not releasingintestinal gasses.
Adding a heavy toxic burden from misdigested foods to the normal toxic load
a body already has to handle creates a myriad of unpleasant symptoms, andgreatly shortens life. But misdigestion also carries with it a double whammy;fermenting and/or putrefying foods immediately interfere with the functioning ofanother vital organ—the large intestine—and cause constipation.
Most people don’t know what the word constipation really means. Not being
able to move one’s bowels is only the most elementary type of constipation. Amore accurate definition of constipation is “the retention of waste products in thelarge intestine beyond the time that is conducive to health.” Properly digestedfood is not sticky and exits the large intestine quickly. But improperly digestedfood (or indigestible food) gradually coats the large intestine, making an ever-thicker lining that interferes with the intestine’s functioning. Far worse, this coatingsteadily putrefies, creating additional highly-potent toxins. Lining the colon withundigested food can be compared to the mineral deposits filling in the inside of anold water pipe, gradually choking off the flow. In the colon, this deposit canbecome rock-hard, just like water pipe scale.
Since the large intestine is also an organ that removes moisture and water-
soluble minerals from the food and moves them into the blood stream, when thelarge intestine is lined with putrefying undigested food waste, the toxins of this
putrefaction are also steadily moved into the bloodstream and place an even
greater burden on the liver and kidneys, accelerating their breakdown,accelerating the aging process and contributing to a lot of interesting andunpleasant symptoms that keep doctors busy and financially solvent. I’ll havequite a bit more to say about colon cleansing later.
The Progress Of Disease:
Irritation, Enervation, Toxaemia
Disease routinely lies at the end of a three-part chain that goes: irritation or
subclinical malnutrition, enervation, toxemia. Irritations are something the persondoes to themselves or something that happens around them. Stresses, in otherwords.
Mental stressors include strong negative emotional states such as anger, fear,
resentment, hopelessness, etc. Behind most diseases it is common to find aproblematic mind churning in profound confusion, one generated by a characterthat avoids responsibility. There may also be job stress or ongoing hostilerelationships, often within the family.
Indigestible foods and misdigestion are also stressful irritations, as are mild
recreational poisons such as “soft” drugs, tobacco and alcohol. Opiates aresomewhat more toxifying, primarily because they paralyze the gut and induceprofound constipation. Stimulants like cocaine and amphetamines are the mostdamaging recreational drugs ; these are highly toxic and rapidly shorten life.
Repeated irritations and/or malnutrition eventually produce enervation. The
old-time hygienists defined enervation as a lack of or decline in an unmeasurablephenomena, “nerve energy.” They viewed the functioning of vital organs as beingcontrolled by or driven by nerve force, sometimes called life force or élan vital.Whatever this vital force actually is, it can be observed and subjectively measuredby comparing one person with another. Some people are full of it and literallysparkle with overflowing energy. Beings like this make everyone around them feel
good because they somehow momentarily give energy to those endowed with
less. Others possess very little and dully plod through life.
As vital force drops, the overall efficiency of all the body’s organs
correspondingly decline. The pancreas creates less digestive enzymes; the thymussecretes less of its vital hormones that mobilize the immune system; the pituitarymakes less growth hormone so the overall repair and rebuilding of cells andtissues slows correspondingly; and so forth. It does not really matter if there is oris not something called nerve energy that can or cannot be measured in alaboratory. Vital force is observable to many people. However, it is measurableby laboratory test that after repeated irritation the overall functioning of theessential organs and glands does deteriorate.
Enervation may develop so gradually that it progresses below the level of
awareness of the person, or times of increased enervation can be experienced asa complaint—as a lack of energy, as tiredness, as difficulties digesting, as a newinability to handle a previously-tolerated insult like alcohol.
Long-term consumption of poor-quality food causes enervation. The body is a
carbon/oxygen engine designed to run efficiently only on highly nutritious food andthis aspect of human genetic programming cannot be changed significantly byadaptation. Given enough generations a human gene pool can adapt to extractingits nutrition from a different group of foods. For example, a group of isolatedFijians currently enjoying long healthy lives eating a diet of seafoods and tropicalroot crops could suddenly be moved to the highlands of Switzerland and forcedto eat the local fare or starve. But most of the Fijians would not have systemsadept at making those enzymes necessary to digest cows milk. So thetransplanted Fijians would experience many generations of poorer health andshorter life spans until their genes had been selected for adaptation to the newdietary. Ultimately their descendants could become uniformly healthy on rye breadand dairy products just like the highland Swiss were.
However, modern industrial farming and processing of foodstuffs significantly
contributes to mass, widespread enervation in two ways. Humans will probablyadjust to the first; the second will, I’m sure, prove insurmountable. First,industrially processed foods are a recent invention and our bodies have not yetadapted to digesting them. In a few more generations humans might be able toaccomplish that and public health could improve on factory food. In themeanwhile, the health of humans has declined. Industrially farmed foods have alsobeen lowered in nutritional content compared to what food could be. I gravelydoubt if any biological organism can ever adapt to an overall dietary that containssignificantly lowered levels of nutrition. I will explain this more fully in the chapteron diet.
Secondary Eliminations Are Disease
However the exact form the chain from irritation or malnutrition to enervation
progresses, the ultimate result is an increased level of toxemia, placing aneliminatory burden on the liver and kidneys. Eventually these organs begin toweaken. Decline of liver and/or kidney function threatens the stability and purityof blood chemistry. Rather than risk complete incapacitation or death from self-poisoning, the overloaded, toxic body, guided by its genetic predisposition andthe nature of the toxins (what was eaten, in what state of stress), cleverly channelssurplus toxins into its first line of defense—alternative or secondary eliminationsystems.
Most non-life-threatening yet highly annoying disease conditions originate as
secondary eliminations. For example, the skin was designed to sweat, eliminationof fluids. Toxemia is often pushed out the sweat glands and is recognized as anunpleasant body odor. A healthy, nontoxic body smells sweet and pleasant (like anewborn baby’s body) even after exercise when it has been sweating heavily.Other skin-like organs such as the sinus tissues,


.” The Eightfold Path asks for each
person to change how the mind works, plucking out what is wrong,
inefficient, and superstitious, then exchanging those outworn habits for
increasing clarity. In other words, the waking-up process, which Buddha
experienced in one night, is laid out as a lifelong program:Right view or perspective
Right intention
Right speech
Right action
Right livelihood
Right ef fort
Right mindfulness
Right concentration
Some of these steps sound natural. W e all want to believe that our
actions and words are virtuous. W e don’ t want to go wrong in our ef fort and
intentions. Other parts of the path need special guidance. What is right
mindfulness? Right concentration? These aspects have their roots in the
meditation practices of Y oga, which Buddha also reformed and brought
within reach of ordinary people.
As a storyteller, I didn’ t feel it was my place to spread Buddhism.
That’ s best left to the modern equivalents of the wandering missionaries
who first preached Buddhism. It would be unseemly for me to step on their
toes. But I’d like to speak to you, the reader, who might be coming to
Buddha from the cold. I came to Buddha that way, and I asked the obvious
question: What can this teaching do for me? Is there something that will
open my eyes and make me more awake, right this minute?
Personally, I found three things. They are known as the three Dharma
seals, or to put it in plain English, three basic facts about Being. They spoke
to me far more than the Middle W ay because of their universality, which
extends far beyond the boundaries of religion.
1. Dukkha
Life is unsatisfactory. Pleasure in the physical world is transient. Pain
inevitably follows. Therefore, nothing we experience can be deeply
satisfying. There is no resting place in change.
2. AniccaNothing is permanent. All experience is swept away in flux. Cause and
effect is endless and confusing. Therefore one can never find clarity or
permanence.
3. Anatta
The separate self is unreliable and ultimately unreal. W e apply words like
soul and personality  to something that is fleeting and ghostly. Our attempts
to make the self real never end but also never succeed. Therefore, we cling
for reassurance to an illusion.

READING THIS, CAN  anyone escape being shaken to the core? Buddha wasn’ t
just a kindly teacher who wanted people to find peace. He was a radical
surgeon who examined them and said, “No wonder you feel sick. All this
unreal stuf f has filled you up, and now we have to get rid of it.” Naturally, a
lot of listeners ran back to conventional religion, and just as many ran back
into materialism, which promises that body, mind, and the physical world
are absolutely real.
Why should we accept Buddha’ s word that they aren’ t? That, I think, is
the crucial question. There’ s not much challenge in accepting that one’ s life
contains suf fering, and only a small challenge in accepting that flux and
change create dissatisfaction. Both facts seem psychologically self-evident.
But to accept that the entire world, and everyone in it, is an illusion? That’ s
an enormous challenge, and it requires a complete shift in consciousness to
meet it.
The word illusion  has a host of meanings, and some are very enticing.
The illusion, for example, that when you fall in love it will last forever. The
illusion that you will never die. The illusion that ignorance is bliss. Buddha
saw the danger hidden in these enticements. He rarely spoke harshly, but I
can imagine him bursting all these bubbles: love ends, everyone dies,
ignorance is folly. But if he had stopped there, Buddha would have wound
up a tiresome moralist.His definition of illusion was so absolute it almost freezes the blood.
Whatever can be seen, heard, or touched is unreal. Whatever you cling to as
permanent is unreal. Whatever the mind can think of is unreal. Does that
leave anything free from the withering grip of illusion?
No.
Yet once we get over our shock, Buddha declares that with a shift in
consciousness, reality reveals itself. Not as a thing. Not as a sensation. Not
even as a wisp of thought. Reality is purely itself. It is the ground of
existence, the source from which everything else is projected. In the most
basic terms, Buddhism exchanges a world of infinite projections for the
single state of Being. A freedom so complete it doesn’ t have to think of
freedom or say its name.
Which brings me to the subversive reason I decided to write a novel on
the life of Buddha. By telling his story from the inside (early on I intended
to call the book I, Buddha ), I could trace every step that led Siddhartha to
stop believing in the world. His tale isn’ t really that of a romantic prince,
suffering monk, or triumphant saint. It’ s a universal soul journey that begins
asleep and ends awake. Siddhartha woke up to the truth, which sounds
inspiring, but in this case the truth demolished his entire self. It overturned
every belief, purified every sense, and brought total clarity to the mind’ s
confusion. In sum, this book has been a kind of seduction, coaxing the
reader step by step toward a vision that none of us was brought up to see.
Through the eyes of Buddha, the root of suf fering is illusion, and the only
way out of illusion is to stop believing in the separate self and the world
that supports the separate self. No spiritual message has ever been so
radical. None remains so terribly ur gent.
OceanofPDF.comThe Art of Non-Doing
A Practical Guide to Buddhism
After being inspired by Buddha’ s life, the most important thing is not to let
him slip through your fingers. This can easily happen. First of all, because
he didn’ t want anyone to hold on to him. Buddha was like a supernova
exploding in the sky, spreading light in all directions. Before the explosion
you could locate him in time and space. He was a person like any other,
however brilliant and charismatic. But after the explosion known as
enlightenment, he turned into something else, something very impersonal.
Call it pure spirit, essence, or transcendent wisdom. By any name, he was
no longer a person, which makes for special dif ficulties. How do you follow
a teacher who is everywhere at once?
I can imagine sitting down with a reader and being asked that question,
which would lead to quite a few more.

How am I supposed to follow someone who constantly insisted that he was
no longer a person and didn’ t have a self?
Ideally, you follow him by losing your own self. Which seems
impossible, since it’ s your self that’ s fascinated by him. It’ s your self that’ s
suffering and wants to be rid of suf fering. The primary message of
Buddhism is that this self cannot accomplish anything real. It must find a
way to disappear, just as Buddha did.
 The self r eaches its goal by not being the self? It sounds like a paradox.
Yes, but Buddhists found three ways to live the wisdom their teacher
left behind. The first way was social, forming groups of disciples into a
Sangha, like the group of monks and nuns that Buddha gathered in his
lifetime. The Sangha exists to establish a spiritual lifestyle. People remind
themselves of the teaching and keep the Buddhist vision alive. They
meditate together and create an atmosphere of peace.
The second way to follow Buddha is ethical, centered on the value of
compassion. Buddha was known as The Compassionate One, a being who
loved all of humanity without judgment. Buddhist ethics bring the same
attitude into everyday life. A Buddhist practices being kind and seeing
others without judgment, but in addition displays love and reverence for life
itself. Buddhist morality is peaceful, accepting, and joyous.
The third way to follow Buddha is mystical. Y ou take to heart the
message of non-self. Y ou do everything possible to break the bonds of
attachment that keep you trapped in the illusion that you are a separate self.
Here your aim is to tiptoe out of the material world even as your body
remains in it. Ordinary people are doing things all day, but in your heart
you’ve turned your attention to non-doing, as the Buddhists call it. Non-
doing isn’ t passivity but a state of openness to all possibilities.

If I practice non-doing, what would I actually do? It still seems like a
paradox.
The third way confronts Buddha’ s most enigmatic side. How can you
shed the separate self when it’ s the only thing you’ve known? The process
sounds frightening, for one thing, because there’ s no guarantee. Once you
accomplish “ego death,” as it’ s often called, what will be left? Y ou might
wind up enlightened, but you also might wind up a blank, a passive non-self
with no interests or desires. People find the Buddhist path rigorous because
you are asked to re-examine everything you think will get you ahead in life
—money, possessions, status, accomplishments—and see them as a source
of suf f


 of your
religionists have described the Triune Truth as Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Some of
your psychiatrists use the terms
superconscious, conscious and
subconscious. Some of your spiritualists
say mind,  body, and spirit. Some of your
scientists see energy, matter, ether. Some
of your  philosophers say a thing is not true
for you until it is tru e in thought, word, and
deed.  When discussing time, you speak of
three times only: past, present, future.
Similarly,  there are three moments in your
perception —before, now, and after. In
terms of  spatial relationships, whether
considering the points in the  universe, or
various  points in your own room, you
recognize here, there, and the space in
between.
In matters of gross relationships, you
recognize no “in -between.” That is because  gross relationships are always dyads,
whereas relationships of the higher realm
are invariably triads. Hence, there is left -
right, up -down, big - small, fast -slow, hot -
cold,  and the greatest dyad ever created:
male -female. There are no in -betweens in
these  dyads. A thing is either one thing or
the other, or some greater or lesser  version
in relationship to one of these polarities.
Within the realm of gross relationships,
nothing conceptualized can exist without a
conceptualization of its opposite. Most of
your day -to-day experience is  found ed in
this reality.
Within the realm of s ublime relationships
nothing which exists has an opposite. All Is
One, and everything progresses from one
to the other in a never -ending circle.  Time is such a sublime realm, in which
what you call past, present, and future exist
inter-relationally. That i s, they are not
opposites, but rather parts of the same
whole;  progressions of the same idea;
cycles of the same energy; aspects of the
same  immutable Truth. If you conclude
from this that past, present, and future exist
at one  and the same “time,” you are  right.
(Yet now is not the moment to discuss that.
We can get into this in much greater detail
when we explore the whole concept of
time—which we will do later).
The world is the way it is because it could
not be any other way and still exist in the
gross  realm of physicality. Earthquakes
and hurricanes, floods and tornados, and
events that you call natural disasters are
but movements of the elements from one  polarity to the other. The whole birth -death
cycle is part of this movement. These are
the rhythms  of life, and everything in gross
reality is subject to them, because life  itself
is a rhythm. It is a wave, a vibration, a
pulsation at the very heart of the All That  Is.
Illness and disease are opposites of health
and wellness, and are made manifest in
your reality at your behest. You cannot be
ill without at some level causing yourself  to
be, and you can be well again in a moment
by simply deciding to be. Deep  personal
disappointments are responses which are
chosen, and worldwide  calamities are the
resul t of worldwide consciousness.
Your question infers that I choose these
events, that it is My will and desire they
should occur. Yet I do not will these things
into being, I merely observe you doing  so. And I do nothing to stop them, because to
do so would be to thwart your will.  That, in
turn, would deprive you of the God
experience, which is the experience you
and I have chosen together.
Do not condemn, therefore, all that you
would call bad in the world. Rather, ask
yourself, what about this have you judg ed
bad, and what, if anything, you wish to do
to change it.
Inquire within, rather than without, asking:
“What part of my Self do I wish to
experience now in the face of this calamity?
What aspect of being do I choose to  call
forth?” For all of life exists as a tool of your
own creation, and all of its events  merely
present themselves as opportunities for
you to decide, and be, Who You Are.  This is true for every soul, and so you see
there are no victims in the universe, only
creators. The Masters who  have walked
this planet all knew this. That is why, no
matter which Master you might name, none
imagined themselves to be victimized —
though many were truly crucified.
Each soul is a Master —though some do
not remember their origins or their
heritages. Yet each creates the situation
and the circumstance for its own highest
purpose and its own quickest
remembering —in each moment called
now.
Judge not, then, the karmic path walked by
another. Envy not success, nor pity  failure,
for you know not what is success  or failure
in the soul’s reckoning. Call not a  thing
calamity, nor joyous event, until you decide, or witness, how it is used. For is a  death a
calamity if it saves the lives of thousands?
And is a life a joyous event if it  has caused
nothing but grief? Y et even this you should
not judge, but keep always  your own
counsel, and allow others theirs.
This does not mean ignore a call for help,
nor the urging of your own soul to work
toward the change of some circumstance
or condition. It does mean avoiding labe ls
and judgment while you do whatever you
do. For each circumstance is a gift, and in
each experience is hidden a treasure.
There once was a soul who knew itself to
be the light. This was a new soul, and so,
anxious for experience. “I am the light,” it
said. “I am the light.” Yet all the knowing of
it and all the saying of it could not substitute
for the experience of it. And in the realm  from which this soul emerged, there was
nothing but the light. Every soul was grand,
every soul was magnificent, and eve ry soul
shone with the brilliance of My awesome
light. And so the little soul in question was
as a candle in the sun. In the midst of the
grandest light —of which it was a part —it
could not see itself, nor experience itself  as
Who and What it Really Is.
Now it came to pass that this soul yearned
and yearned to know itself. And so great
was its yearning that I one day said, “Do
you know, Little One, what you must do to
satisfy this yearning of yours?”
“Oh, what, God? What? I’ll do anything!”
The little soul s aid. “You must separate yourself from the rest,
of us,” I answered, “and then you must  call
upon yourself the darkness. ”
“What is the darkness, O Holy One?” the
little soul asked.
“That which you are not,” I replied, and the
soul understood.
And so this th e soul did, removing itself
from the All, yea, going even unto another
realm. And in this realm the soul had the
power to call into its experience all sorts of
darkness. And this it did.
Yet in the midst of all the darkness did it cry
out, “Father, Father,  why hast Thou
forsaken me?” Even as have you in your
blackest times. Yet I have never forsaken
you, but stand by you always, ready to remind you of Who You Really Are; ready,
always ready, to call you home.
Therefore, be a light unto the darkness,
and cur se it not.
And forget not Who You Are in the moment
of your encirclement by that which you  are
not. But do you praise to the creation, even
as you seek to change it.
And know that what you do in the time of
your greatest trial can be your greatest
triumph.  For the experience you create is a
statement of Who You Are —and Who  You
Want to Be.
I have told you this story —the parable of
the little soul and the sun —so that you
might better understand why the world is
the way it is —and how it can change in an  instan t the moment everyone remembers
the divine truth of their highest reality.
Now there are those who say that life is a
school, and that these things which you
observe and experience in your life are for
your learning. I have addressed this  before,
and I tel l you again:
You came into this life with nothing to
learn —you have only to demonstrate what
you already know. In the demonstration of
it will you function it out, and create yourself
anew, through your experience. Thus,  do
you justify life, and give it purpose. Thus,
do you render it holy.
Are you saying that all the bad things that
happen to us are things of our own
choosing? Do  you mean that


 Concentrations in the testes, skeletal muscle, heart, and brain increased
after 30 min but remained virtually constant in other tissues. Levels of DMSO had
declined to minimal values in all tissues after 24 h.
4 The ratio of dimethyl sulfone to
DMSO 4 h after oral administration of 35S-DMSO was found to be virtually constant 16 Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) in Trauma and Disease
in liver, testes, kidney, spleen, small intestine, heart, and plasma.4 The lowest levels
of 35S-DMSO were found in the lens of the eye. The half-life of 35S-DMSO was
prolonged in hard tissues, and virtually no radioactive DMSO is found in any tissue
1 week after the last dose of a single or repeated administration.4
Rhesus monkeys were given daily oral doses of 3 g DMSO/kg for 14 days, and
its major metabolite, dimethyl sulfone, was measured in serum, urine, and feces by gas–liquid chromatography.
5 DMSO was quickly absorbed and reached a steady-
state blood level after 24 h and then was cleared from blood within 72 h after treat -
ment ended. Serum DMSO declined in a linear fashion as described by second-order kinetics.
5 Dimethyl sulfone half-life in serum was calculated to be 38 h and appeared
in blood within 2 h, reaching a steady-state concentration after 4 days of treatment. Following DMSO administration, dimethyl sulfone was cleared from serum after 120 h. Urinary excretion of unmetabolized DMSO and dimethyl sulfone accounted for about 60% and 16%, respectively, of the total ingested dose.
5 The absorption of
DMSO by monkeys appears similar to that for humans, but its conversion to dimethyl sulfone and its urinary elimination are more rapid in monkeys.

PENETRATION
There are four principal variables that influence the penetration of a solute through any given membrane: (1) the diffusion coefficient through the membrane, (2) the con -
centration of the agent in the vehicle, (3) the partition coefficient between the mem -
brane and the vehicle, and (4) the thickness of the membrane barrier.
6 Penetration
agents are designed to affect one or more of these variables without causing perma -
nent structural or chemical modification of the physiological barrier. Alteration of membrane thickness is less practical for drug delivery (it is difficult to conceive of nontoxic agents that could reversibly decrease the thickness of the stratum corneum), so most penetration agents, including DMSO, attempt to reversibly alter variables 1–3 given earlier.
There is some evidence to suggest that DMSO can increase diffusion through the
stratum corneum by disruption of the barrier function.
7 This probably occurs through
aprotic interactions with intercellular lipids and may also include reversible distor -
tion of lipid head groups that produce a more permeable packing arrangement.8,9
DMSO may play a role in partitioning as well by forming solvent microenvironments within the tissue that can effectively extract solute from vehicle. Finally, DMSO can have a profound solubilizing effect on less soluble agents in a variety of vehicles, increasing penetration simply by delivering a higher concentration to the membrane barrier.
10
CHEMICAL CHAPERONES
The actions of DMSO as a chemical chaperone are discussed in Chapter 1. Chemical
chaperones such as DMSO, glycerol, trimethylamine n-oxide, and other small mol -
ecules have been found to stabilize and help in the folding of proteins.11
Chemical chaperones differ from molecular chaperones, which are small molecules
found in the endoplasmic reticulum. These chemical chaperones also differ from 17 DMSO in Basic Pharmacology
pharmacological chaperones, which are small synthetic molecules that can induce
 correct  folding by binding to the hydrophobic domains of a given protein in an adenos -
ine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent fashion.12 The older the cell, the more difficult it is
to cope with protein misfolding.13 Whether DMSO can also act as a pharmacological
chaperone has not been determined. Although DMSO has not been used extensively
in misfolded protein diseases, it may offer some hope as a treatment due to its osmo -
lytic activity in preventing aggregate formation in neurotoxic gain  disorders such as
Alzheimer’s disease (deposition of amyloid-β  peptide in brain tissue and neurofibril -
lary tangles within neurons), Parkinson’s disease (deposition of aggregated α -synuclein
in Lewy bodies), scrapie or mad cow disease (pathological prion protein production), and Huntington’s disease (excessive number of CAG repeats in the huntingtin gene).
It follows that if DMSO is successful in treating neurotoxic gain disorders, it could
also be useful in loss-of-function  diseases such as nephrogenic diabetes mellitus,
Gaucher’s disease, Fabry’s disease, and cystic fibrosis.
14 Loss-of-function disorders
are generally caused by missense point mutations. Examples of point mutation disor -
ders are sickle-cell disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Loss-of-function muta -
tions can alter the normal folding proteins and lead to their degradation, a process that could be blocked by DMSO and by the cell’s ability to try and stay healthy.
14
Toxic gain disorders involve proteins that fail to fold into their normal configuration, and in their misfolded state, they can become toxic in some way and quickly aggre -
gate, leading to the formation of inclusion bodies that eventually result in cell death.

DMSO AS A PAIN MEDICATION
Many ancient cultures believed that pain was a test of faith or a punishment by the gods for human folly. The remedy for pain was to appease the wrath of gods with magic, rituals, or sacrifice of animals and humans.
Ancient philosophers considered pain to be an emotion. Aristotle in his
Nicomachean Ethics  saw pain not as an internal noxious sensation but as spirits
entering the injured body to affect the soul. This explanation that pain was an exter -
nal force that entered the body and could be treated by prayer endured for centuries. This thinking was partly replaced by the seventeenth-century discoveries of a mech -
anistic theory to explain pain. One of the earliest expositions of pain mechanics were the descriptive 1644 writings of the French philosopher and mathematician René Descartes, who proposed a more pragmatic approach to pain. Descartes correctly believed that pain did not come from the outside but rather within the body where it traveled through nerves to the brain.
Pain is the most common reason for people to seek medical help and is a major
presenting complaint in a multitude of medical conditions and disorders. It has been common knowledge for thousands of years that acute or chronic pain can signifi -
cantly interfere with a person’s quality of life and normal daily function.
Woolf
16 has described three types of pain. First, there is nociceptive  pain, which
acts as an early warning, protective system that can feel a harmful stimulus, such as an object that is too hot or cold, or too sharp, and react to minimize the pain.
The second type of pain is inflammatory  and occurs when there is tissue injury, for
example, with an inflamed joint, a local or systemic infection, or following surgery. 18 Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) in Trauma and Disease
This type of pain is adaptive in the sense that the individual limits the movement of
the body part in pain in order to shorten the duration or the degree of the pain and accelerate its eventual recovery.
The third type of pain is pathological. Pathological pain is not adaptive or pro -
tective  as in types 1 and 2 but results from tissue damage affecting the nervous
system.
16 This type of pain can occur in the absence of inflammation or noxious
stimuli and may persist for a long duration when stimuli are excessively intense or prolonged. The quality of pathological pain can be severe or moderate and may inter -
fere with sleep or daily function. At the same time, pain can downgrade the health and psychological well-being of the individual.
17
Pain killers, particularly opioid drugs, are the leading cause of unintentional over -
dose deaths in teens and adults, and according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), such deaths have reached epidemic proportions in the United States. The number of unintentional drug poisoning deaths exceeds either motor vehicle accidents or suicides, two of the leading causes of death in the United States.
18
One of the reasons for easily overdosing and dying from narcotics is their powerful action as central nervous system (CNS) depressants, especially when the narcotic is combined with alcohol or another pain medication.
19
For these reasons, an analgesic medication with a high margin of safety, which
lacks CNS depressant activity and is void of the danger of unintentional overdose and death, has been an elusive Golden Fleece quest by the pharmaceutical industry and by academic and government-sponsored research.
These pharmacological properties in an analgesic agent and avoidance of death
by overdose appeared to have been solved in 1964 when Jacob et al.
20 first reported
on the local analgesic potential of DMSO in humans. The use of DMSO as a pain medication in humans is discussed in detail in Chapter 3.

Upon analyzing the mean of variation of the estimated mental age from these
twelve tests practiced on the control group within the 180-day period, in
comparison with that obtained by the treated group, a definite difference emerged.
There was a significant improvement in the psychometric profile of the children
treated with DMSO aminoacid therapy. It contrasted with the static state of the
control group where the variation was practically nonexistent when the
conventional approach was used.
None of the children treated with the experimental compound showed any signs
of toxicity or intolerance.

THE NEW TREATMENT FOR LEARNING DISABILITIES
For the last three decades learning disorders have been viewed primarily from the
perspective of special education problems. During early investigations into the
causes of “brain-injured” children, a variety of labels have been leveled at these
youngsters. The more common names for their behavioral characteristics include
brain injury, brain damage, minimal brain damage, minimal brain dysfunction,
hyperkinesis, perceptual defects, dyslexia, hyperactivity, and many more. Still, no
single cause has conclusively been found, and treatment has differed with the
training and course of study of the diagnosing doctor, depending on whether the
doctor is a neurologist, psychologist, psychiatrist, internist, educator, or
nutritionist.
But positive neurological findings have been reported in up to 85 percent of
the children with learning disabilities. In one study, 97 percent of the patients
showed evidence of brain dysfunction. In another study, a genetic component was
considered the cause and, in fact, at least five times more boys than girls have
learning disorders, which
suggests that some are genetically sex-linked. Of the
51.5 million school-aged children in the United States, an estimated 10 percent
have some type of learning disability.
The therapy for these disorders may be pharmacological, nutritional, or
environmental. Pharmacologically, learning disorders that are, in general,
considered brain damage are treated with cell-building substances such as aminoacids, phosphates, and potassium. They are administered in combination with
“carrying” solvents such as DMSO so as to actively interfere with the language
disorder, which may have a bearing on the recovery and/or development of speech.
The addition of amino acids to DMSO develops and activates the functional
activity of the brain.
A clinical research project was conducted by the Department of Abandoned
Children of the National Health Service of Chile, in 1969, under the direction of
the department head, Carlos Nassar, M.D. On a total of forty-four children of
school age with learning and developmental problems caused by low intellectual
capacity, Dr. Nassar used DMSO aminoacid therapy (Merinex) by injection and
by mouth.
The personal histories of the children showed high percentages of retardation in
learning to walk, speak, in psychomotor development, and other actions. They had
unmotivated aggressiveness, rebellion and irritability, convulsive attacks, and
convulsive pathologies of the brain. Intellectual examinations before the
experimental trials indicated that they had IQs of between thirty to eighty-five.
This IQ examination was repeated at three, six, and ten months during the course
of treatment with DMSO aminoacid therapy.
A series of twenty intramuscular DMSO aminoacid injections, alternating with
the oral administration of capsules, proceeded. Almost all the children were
treated during periods ranging from six to ten months, except for six children in
which treatment was extended a year.
In contrast with the poor results obtained using other methods of therapy, the
progress in mental capacity observed by Dr. Nassar for these DMSO-treated
children was extraordinary. He accomplished a heightened capacity for learning in
them in a relatively short time. More than 70 percent were classified “favorable”
responses. He saw an “increase of the IQ, an evident and accelerated progress in
basic achievements, an overall improvement of intellectual capacity, evident
progress in reading, writing, and mathematics, better coordination of movements
and improved manual skill, and a decrease of behavioral problems.” The doctor
also saw his patients gain better psychomotor control, and observed the elimination
of anger for no reason, a general reduction of irritability, and a lessening of
disobedience.
Nassar stated unequivocally, “When analyzing the cases treated and evaluating
the clinical and psychometric tests, which were performed with the greatest care
and conscientiousness, we can conclude that Merinex is undoubtedly beneficial
and useful in the treatment of oligophrenic [mentally deficient] children; anincrease in their intellectual faculties and progress in basic achievements were
registered in a high percentage of the cases. During the clinical research, we
observed that the treatment not only increased the IQ but also has a beneficial
influence on behavior problems, improves psychomotor coordination, and
eliminates irritability, nervous erethism [abnormal excitement], unmotivated
aggressiveness, and rebelliousness.”
Additional investigations supported the Nassar study. For instance, at the
Department of Psychiatry, the University of Chile, neuropsychiatrist Azael Paz,
M.D., did research on fifty learning disabled children between the ages of five and
fifteen. They did not suffer from organic brain trouble, brain paralysis, congenital
brain damage, epilepsy, or pseudoneurotic mental retardation. Their problems
were only language disorders.
DMSO aminoacid therapy (Merinex) was administered to a part of the group—
thirty patients—exclusively by mouth, in dosages of two or three capsules a day
during a period of six months. In the other twenty children injection treatment was
given intramuscularly, with 5 cc doses of three ampoules per week, until twenty
injections, alternating with a rest period of fifteen days, were completed. The
injections were then resumed with the same time rhythm and duration as the first
cycle until an average of six months of treatment was reached. During the rest
periods, the DMSO aminoacid oral treatment was also given in daily doses of two
or three capsules, according to the age of the child.
Dr. Paz reported that there are excellent possibilities for stimulating and
accentuating the development, the psychic evolution, and learning of children with
the help of this therapy, which activates and stimulates the energetic oxidative
metabolism of the brain. The neuropsychiatrist noted a gradual development of the
faculty of greater awareness, changes and progress in the moral attitude of the
child, the unfolding of the personality, the dawning of self-criticism, and the
satisfaction of establishing his own personal identity.
The favorable results reported in this clinical study of DMSO for learning
disabilities were summed up by the researcher in the following way:
1
.
Disappearance of mental lethargy.
2
.
Evidence of sensorial reactions.
3
.
Disappearance of automatic movements.
4
.
Disappearance of inertia, passivity, and negativity.
5
.
Growing interest and initiative in tasks and activities.
6
.
Improvement of the physiognomic expression (use of facial features to revealcharacter) and of the spoken language.
7
.
Lucid activity, group contact, and disappearance of unprovoked
aggressiveness.
8
.
Losing shyness and developing self-esteem.
9
.
Successful training to carry out chores, to shop, eat, and dress without help,
etc.
10
.
Learning to read and write and to do homework.
Paz concluded: “The therapy with Merinex, injections and capsules, has led to
a rapid biopsychological development and to the evolution of the intellectual
faculties of the children, making them capable for school learning.” The
therapeutic response was quicker and more efficacious in the group subject to
treatment with injections and capsules than in the group treated exclusively with
capsules alone.
Added to this extensive and convincing South American study, physicians in
Spain confirmed, in late 1982, that children victimized by Down’s syndrome
undergo a positive social adjustment when they are administered DMSO.

REVERSING SENILE DEMENTIA AND OTHER FORMS OF
PSYCHO-ORGANIC DECAY
In the brain of a young healthy adult, there are about 12 billion neurons, the cells
that send nerve impulses through the body. As part of the aging process each day,
the brain loses about 100,000 neurons. They get used up and die and psycho-
organic decay eventually sets in when enough neurons have been lost.
Geriatric specialists estimate that 15 percent of people sixty-five to seventy-
five years old and 25 percent of those seventy-five and older are suffering from
senile dementia, one of the forms of psycho-organic (PSO) decay. Thus, senility or
dementia is in no way the same as aging, for if you can prevent PSO decay you
will avoid senile dementia, but will continue to age. Senility or dementia is the
term applied to destructive changes in the functioning cells of the brain. It is a
brain disease and a mental disease. While there are senile physical changes as
well, they are not always present in the brain of the senile person.

actual return to fletcherizmu and its variants. Experience
and practice the author confirm this. The method of prolonged chewing
has several advantages over the separate power supply. They are reduced
to the next.
- Therapeutic chewing accessible to everyone and does not require medical
control.
- Therapeutic chewing - is a process separate food in a clean
form, since any food consisting of protein, fat and carbohydrates,
digested separately: in the mouth and small intestine to digest
of carbohydrates, and in the stomach - protein components.
- The body smoothly and slowly with the usual diet
leads to normal, all systems of the gastrointestinal tract
and restores the natural immune system without the possibility of
violation of the established system of biorhythms of the body.
- Medical chewing required to restore the body systems
the least amount of energy compared with other methods.
Therefore we obtain the energy savings of an organism allows
implement most of its restoration opportunities.
- Provides recovery of the body and its systems:
digestive, nervous, immune, and others.
- Significant reduction in food intake (2-4 times)
prevents the appearance of excess weight after the course

- Naturally produced by the conditioned reflex -

- A signal for repeating the cycle of therapeutic chewing may serve as

252And now some examples.
Andrew K. asked me for help. He weighed 240 kg. Not
times to lose weight, but then it grew even more. After
familiarity with the system of medical chewing began losing weight and up to 8
months of continuous therapy chewing threw 100 kg.
Two women from Armenia, weighed 100 kg and 120 kg. After treatment
chewing weighed 65 kg, respectively, and 70 kg.
My neighbor Kostya was hospitalized with a stomach ulcer - perforation.
His mother came to me asking for help. I advised
discharged from the hospital on receipt. Kostya was thoroughly chew
scheme of medical chewing. Ceased to eat meat.
A month later he was healthy. Now he chews a long time.
Alesha from the village Pokrovskoye Ryazan region suffered ulcer
stomach. One month of munching on the scheme of medical chewing. Within a month
was healthy.
Patient NM in November 1998 came in 81 th hospital in the city of Moscow
diagnosed with a bleeding stomach ulcer. Doctors Hospital insisted
for immediate surgery, but the patient refused and moved to
therapeutic chewing. Chewed 21 days each spoonful of food (porridge on the water)
for 3 minutes. After 21 days he was discharged from the hospital. Ulcer healed.
since 1998, periodically applies a therapeutic chewing. Relapse
peptic ulcer disease is no.
Patient L., age 62, suffered from insulin dependent diabetes
and asthma. It took her about two years for full recovery in
relatively low level of self-organization in carrying out
therapeutic chewing.
There are many other examples.
Most my main idea - it's the combination of the two natural methods.
Dry fasting cleans the body and normalizes the exchange
substances, very good, naturally lost weight, stomach
decreases and acquires its normal volume. On the other hand,
after fasting in the body with the large reconstruction
processes. Cells actively absorb nutrients, and if
at this time do not limit yourself to eating, your weight quickly
reaches the same standards and are likely to exceed it by several
kilos. If the output immediately begin to apply the method
therapeutic chewing, the stomach will never be stretched, the body
would ideally absorb all the nutrients, respectively,
restoration and rejuvenation of the body will be optimal. I
never seen a single person who when combined
these two methods to gain weight. On the contrary, even at the exit, he again
begins to fall.
Everything is as always very simple, just need a little stretch will
and patience.
Usually, all my patients, I give full such recommendations.
Go to a certain food, clean the intestines, liver (about
that you learn in the next chapter). We must start with the weekly 24
253
253hours of wet starvation. Occasionally, some starved to three times
a week for 24 hours. In other words, one day they ate, and the next
day hunger strike. If a man allowed himself too much in those days, while eating, then
24-hour fasting several times a week quickly forced to lose
this weight. Then they go to a three-day wet-fast, let alone
then start making waterless fasting days.
More detail in my written the next chapter. We at the Center
they basically are combined starvation, several
courses. It looks like this: five days of dry hunger, five
Wet days, the yield of seven days, then again everything is repeated. Starve
more than 10 days makes no sense, as the weight falls mainly in the first
7-10 days. For such courses can naturally throw of 15
to 30 kg, but can be more - it all depends on the weight and purpose.
Here are some simple tips violating feeding regime, the implementation
which helps to achieve a common goal - to lose weight, lose weight.
1. To distract from thoughts about food, try to do some
or interesting work, read a book, go to the movies, walk
outdoors. Remember, boredom - your enemy, you have an ally
overeating and obesity.
2. Apply a meal in a small dish to make it seem
large quantity, take a fork or spoon a small
the amount of food, cut thin slices of bread to emerged
the illusion of a more ample servings. There is a need to slow, then the sense of
satiety is attained earlier.
3. If you want to go to visit, before leaving eat anything
diet, such as lettuce, then it would be easy to refrain from
temptation to try anything for you forbidden to visit.
4. If you are very hungry and feel that you do not soak
until the next meal, drink slowly sips a third
glass of milk.
5. Preferably in the house have the scale to continuously monitor the mass
his body. Control can serve as a measurement of centimeter
waist belt in the morning: one inch waist - is one kilogram
weight.
6. Try not to visit the pastry department, and will not happen
in a society with a sweet tooth. Remember: there is a piece of cake in his mouth 2
minutes in the stomach 2 hours, but a lifetime on the hips in the form of excessive
fat.
7. Necessarily rule out food dishes and products that increase
appetite: spicy food, spices, meats, etc.
8. Be sure to hang in the kitchen scheme therapeutic chewing to
She was constantly before his eyes during a meal.
9. Ideally, the best after 6 pm is not.
10. One of the main conditions of reliable high-quality diet
- Must be pre-programmed himself to the weight that you
want. Take a piece of paper and left-handed writing your numerals
desired weight and always keep before the eyes of these figures.

To show the important role of nutrition, I would like to tell you about
amazing Hunza tribe. The tribe, which lives in India in the Valley
Hunza, called an "oasis of youth." Life
inhabitants of this valley of 110-120 years. They almost never get sick,
look young. One of the missionaries organized a hospital there
and was both discouraged - go weeks, months, and patients
was not - and I'm glad this discovery: it means that there is a certain image
life, approaching the ideal, when people feel
healthy, happy, not age, as in other countries, has a 40 -
50 years of age.
Hunza to a hundred years playing outdoor games, women in this
age still have their babies. According to the scientists who have studied
the life of this tribe, they eat mostly raw fruits
and feta cheese. Interestingly another: the inhabitants of Happy Valley
there is a period when the fruit is not ripe - it is called "starvation
in spring and lasts from two to four months. During these months they
almost nothing to eat only once a day, drink a beverage made from dried
apricots. Apricots there most honorable fruit. tribe is
even a saying: "Your wife will not follow you there, where no
apricot fruit. " It is curious that diet in this
tribe erected a cult and is strictly enforced. There should be less.
It is in the enviable power is the secret of Hunza health. They
eat a little, in their diet
