it provides a favorite motif in Chinese art, represents a felicitous
sign, and is a symbol of female sexual essence. Major Chinese
medical treatises rank it with ginseng as the best of "superior med
icines." Legends claim that ling-chih brings eternal youth and as
sures longevity. It was said even to resurrect the dead, and hence is
sometimes called the ''plant of immortality." So fabulous was its
reputation and so rarely was it found that when a large growth of
ling-ch ih was reported to En1peror Wu of the Han dynasty in the
second century B. c., he declared a national celebration and or
dered a general amnesty.
I..p Earlier efforts to cultivate liu.�-chih failed, but in 1972 research
ers succeeded in doing so in Taiwan. Subsequent ly it was planted
successfully in Japan, South Korea, and China, and intensive re
search and experimentation became possible. Because ling-chih
has the same capability as ginseng to normalize blood pressure
and blood sugar, it too is classified as an adaptogen. In clinical
tests in China and Japan, it has been found effective in lowering
blood cholesterol and fat. It is believed effective in preventing or
alleviating some two dozen ailments or diseases, including bron
chial asthma, chronic hepatitis, diabetes, hemorrhoids, varicose
veins, rheumatoid arthritis, strokes, and deficiency of steroid
honnones secreted by the adrenal cortex.
More recently, reports that ling-chih can combat certain types
of cancer (of the breast, uterus, and digestive tract) have been at
tracting attention in Asian medical circles. Precisely why ling-chih
may be effective is not known, although one Japanese scientist sus
pects that the rich amount of the anticancer mineral germanium it
contains may be the answer. Ling-chih, ginseng, and garlic have
the highest amounts of germanium known. No large-scale re
search on ling-chih is being done by Western researchers.
FRoM HoRN TO NuTs: OTHE R FAVO RITE To NICS
One treasured Chinese aphrodisiac tonic that has n1et with
skepticism in the West is velvet deer horn. On a visit to Hong
Kong, when a British royal was told that the Chinese consumed
ground-up deer horn for health and longevity, he \Vas said to have
con1mented laughing ly that if deer horn was good for health,
ground-up table legs would be too.
The young plun1 blosson1 t·ker (also known as the spotted or
sika deer) sheds its antlers in the fall and grows ne\v ones in the
spring. Tht.· newly grown horn is soft, fuzz-covert.·d, and rich in
blood vessels. In tht.· sumn1er, before the new velvet horns harden
into bony antlers, the Chinese collect thent; they process then 1
and slice thern into paper-thin waters, which they sell at high
prices in ht.·rb phannacies. The Chinese use velvet deer horn as a
sexual tonic and as a gent·ral tonic tor debility and itnpainnents
related to age. In Siberia, where deer are plenty, scientists have ex
perirnt.·nted with an extr�Kt front the deer horn, pantocrine. They found that it enhanced physical statnina in n1in· in t'ertain lab

and an antidote tor dt·bility, nervousness, depr ession, n1enopausal
blues, rhcutnatisnt, and other ailrnents. Called wu-chia-pi, it takes
its n�une fron1 wu-cllia (Eifuthao((laus sctuicosus; A.rantho pattax
spiuosum), a thorny bush that grows in nuny parts of China and
Siberia; the bark (pi) of its root is used as a tonic. Scientists of the
Acader ny of Sciences of the Soviet Union took a great interest in
Chinese clain1s about this bush and spent years researching it.
Their experiments not only substantiated many of the Chinese
claims but also found that wu-c hia-pi regulates blood pressure and
blood sugar, just as ginseng does. Although wu-c hia-pi has some
properties similar to those of ginseng, calling it "Siberian gin
seng," as is sometimes done, is inaccurate.
Yet another ancient Chinese aphrodisiac health tonic receiving
an enthusiastic nod from modern researchers contains huang-chi,
or yellow vetch (Astr agalus hoan gtch y). The root of this herbaceous
plant has been popular among the Chinese as a tonic and versatile
medicinal ingredient for more than two thousand years. Chinese
physicians and nutritionists have claimed that huang-chi nurtures
life-force, and they have used it to treat many wasting diseases, as
well as prolapses of the uterus, night sweats, and diabetes. It is
often helpful to people recuperating from surgery, and as a de
fense against cold and flu.
The latest discovery about its immune-boosting qualities ap
pears to confirm age-old claims. Two scientists have found that
doses of huang-ch i taken over a two-month period greatly strength
ened the human immune system by bolstering defensive T cells
and restoring damaged ones, both in test tubes and in cancer pa
tients. Huang-ch i also lowers blood pressure and inhibits harmful
free radicals. Reseachers in Japan found that laboratory mice, nor
mally in heat for one day, became sexually active for as long as ten
days after eating the root.
The oldest surviving tree on earth is said to be the gingko or /�,,J.� a"d Ht•rhs for Lcwr
143 144 ginkgo (Gink�ftO biloba), and China is the source of transplants to
Europe and the Americas. Once a favorite of Chinese emperors,
gingko nuts are actually the seeds or pits of fruit grown on tall
gingko trees. The pulp of the fruit is toxic and corrosive, but the
"nut" inside is rich in vitamin B2, beta-carotene, and minerals.
Gingko nuts have been used by the Chinese as a cure for fre
quent urination, asthma, and vaginal irritation or infection. Shelled
gingkos, after soaking in vegetable oil for a hundred days, have
been used to treat tuberculosis in China for several centuries. Chi
nese scholars placed gingko leaves in their books to prevent dam
age by bookworms. Buddhists monks often ate a gingko nut just
before their Zen meditation to facilitate deep breathing and fore
stall coughs. Gingko nuts are always roasted before being eaten,
as they arc toxic when raw. Even roasted nuts must be eaten in a
limited number at a time.
Most of the positive properties of gingko nuts have been con
firmed by modern research. Laboratory experiments have isolated
an antibiotic ingredient in the nut that in the test tube etTectivcly
attacks tuberculosis, typhoid, diphtheria, and dysentery. The nuts
are known also to have anticancer properties. An extract from the
gingko leaf is now used widely in France and Germany as an anti
aging treatment for senile demen tia and memory loss. This is be
cause of its ability to improve blood circulation in the brain.
If an extract from the gingko can in1prove blood circulation in
the brain, can it do so elsewhere? According to a study in Tile Jour

example,	practice	two	thousand	small	breath	holds	and	reduced
breathing	for	blocks	of	five	minutes	many	times	throughout	the	day.
(You	don’t	have	to	count	each	breath	hold;	instead,	do	as	many	as
possible.)	The	more	severe	your	symptoms,	the	greater	the	number	of

Use	the	nose	unblocking	exercise	if	your	nose	gets	blocked;
Keep	your	mouth	closed	at	all	times,	including	during	sleep;
Observe	the	antics	of	your	mind	and	be	aware	of	repetitive	thought

Feel	your	inner	body	for	pockets	of	five	minutes	many	times	throughoutthe	day.	In	school,	put	70%	of	your	attention	on	listening	to	your	teacher
and	the	remaining	30%	on	your	inner	body	or	reduced	breathing;
Use

when	you	feel	stressed;
When	you	have	no	symptoms,	walk	with	breath	holds	on	the	out	breath
for	half	an	hour	each	day.	For	example,	hold	your	breath	while	walking,
on	a	trampoline,	running,	riding	a	horse	or	whatever	physical	exercise
you	like.	While	exercising,	hold	your	breath	for	as	long	as	possible
without	being	stressed.	At	the	end	of	the	breath	hold,	calm	your

Be	aware	of	the	concept	of	reduced	breathing	and	ensure	that	your
breathing	is	quiet	24/7.	It	is	not	necessary	to	formally	practice	reduced
breathing,	but	incorporate	it	into	every	activity	you	do.	Remember	that
when	you	reduce	your	breathing,	you	are	improving	blood	flow	and
oxygenation	of	the	brain.	You	are	also	stepping	out	of	thought	during
this	time.
Ensure	that	you	relax	your	tummy	and	chest.	Keep	your	chest	still	as	you
breathe!

An	adult	with	a	very	busy	lifestyle
Reduce	your	breathing	from	the	moment	you	wake	up	in	the	morning.
For	example,	while	lying	in	bed	for	a	few	minutes,	reduce	your	breathing
and	create	a	need	for	air;
Feel	your	inner	body	as	often	as	you	can	throughout	the	day;
Hold	your	breath	and	reduce	your	breathing.	For	example,	while	you	are
in	the	shower	or	washing	your	hair,	hold	your	breath	on	the	out	breath
and	build	up	a	good	need	for	air;
Reduce	your	breathing	by	relaxing	your	chest	and	tummy	while	you
drive	to	work;	ensure	that	your	chest	remains	still;
While	you	walk	from	your	car	to	work,	perform	breath	holds;
Go	for	a	20-minute	walk	during	your	lunch	break	and	do	many	breath
holds	throughout	the	walk;
When	you	return	from	work,	reduce	your	breathing	in	your	car,	while
watching	TV	or	reading	a	book,	etc.;
When	faced	with	confrontation,	bring	attention	immediately	to	your
inner	body.	Start	off	first	with	small	situations.	In	time,	you	will	be
calmer	regardless	of	what	is	taking	place	around	you.
If	you	need	to	challenge	somebody,	wait	until	your	anger	has	passed	and
approach	the	individual	while	keeping	most	of	your	attention	on	yourinner	body
Watch	out	for	repetitive	thought	processes,	especially	the	recurrent
thoughts	that	take	so	much	of	your	time,	reach	no	conclusion,	create
anger	and	tension	and	drain	you	of	energy.
Ideally,	spend	a	cumulative	90	minutes	per	day	divided	among	reducing	your
breathing,	exercising	with	your	mouth	closed	and	feeling	the	inner	body.	The
best	time	to	reduce	your	breathing	is	first	thing	after	waking,	during	the	day
and	as	the	last	thing	at	night.	In	addition,	bring	plenty	of	attention	to	your
inner	body.	This	will	reward	you	many-fold.

Pay	enough	attention	to	your	breathing	to	increase	your	CP	by	an	extra	4
seconds	each	week.	If	your	CP	is	not	increasing	from	week	to	week,	then	pay
more	attention	to	your	breathing	or	do	the	exercises	formally	by	allocating
sufficient	time	to	them	each	day.YOU	HAVE	TWO	OPTIONS

Have	a	high	CP	and	observe	your	mind
OR

Fight	your	symptoms	for	the	rest	of	your	life.
Ignore	it	at	your	peril!

A
fter	a	number	of	weeks	practicing	the	exercises	and	with	a	CP	of	perhaps
20	seconds,	you	may	reach	a	plateau	where	you	seem	to	be	making	no
improvement	in	your	condition	and	your	CP.	This	can	happen	regardless	of
the	amount	of	time	you	spend	at	reduced	breathing	exercises.	The	best	way	to
increase	your	CP	from	20	to	40	seconds	is	to	partake	in	physical	exercise.	If
your	Control	Pause	is	stubborn,	reduce	your	consumption	of	food	as	well	to
increase	your	CP	more	quickly.

In	achieving	a	CP	of	40	seconds,	your	mind	will	be	considerably	quieter.	The
attention	you	gave	to	your	breathing	while	reducing	it	will	also	play	a	vital
role.

Western	society	competes	for	our	attention	through	advertising,	media	and
noise.	Give	yourself	some	attention	for	a	change.	Your	body	is	not	just	a	head.

This	is	common	reading	in	many	self-help	books.	It	was	something	that	I
came	across	time	and	time	again.	However,


ilk-Type	1	diabetes
association.	In	ten	human	studies	(all	case-control)	summarized	in	a	paper
published	as	part	of	a	“controversial	topics	series,”
38
	the	authors	concluded
that	five	of	the	ten	studies	showed	a	statistically	significant	positive
association	between	cow’s	milk	and	Type	1	diabetes	and	five	did
not.
Obviously,	this	at	first	seems	to	demonstrate	considerable	uncertainty,	going	a
long	way	to	discredit	the	hypothesis.
However,	the	five	studies	that	were	counted	as	“negative”	did	not	show
that	cow’s	milk
decreased
	Type	1	diabetes.	These	five	studies	showed
no
statistically	significant	effect	either	way
.	In	contrast,	there	are	a	total	of	five
statistically	significant	studies	and	all	five	showed	the	same	result:	early
cow’s	milk	consumption	is	associated	with
increased
	risk	of	Type	1	diabetes.
There	is	only	one	chance	in	sixty-four	that	this	was	a	random	or	chance	result.
There	are	many,	many	reasons,	some	seen	and	some	unseen,	why	an
experiment	would	find	no	statistically	significant	relationship	between	two
factors,	even	when	a	relationship	really	exists.	Perhaps	the	study	didn’tinclude	enough	people,	and	statistical	certainty	was	unattainable.	Perhaps
most	of	the	subjects	had	very	similar	feeding	practices,	limiting	detection	of
the	relationship	you	might	otherwise	see.	Maybe	trying	to	measure	infant
feeding	practices	from	years	ago	was	inaccurate	enough	that	it	obscured	the
relationship	that	does	exist.	Perhaps	the	researchers	were	studying	the	wrong
period	of	time	in	an	infant’s	life.
The	point	is,	if	five	of	the	ten	studies	did	find	a	statistically	significant
relationship,	and
all	five
	showed	that	cow’s	milk	consumption	is	linked	to
increasing	Type	1	diabetes,	and
none
	show	that	cow’s	milk	consumption	is
linked	to	decreasing	Type	1	diabetes,	I	could	hardly	justify	saying,	as	the
authors	of	this	review	did,	that	the	hypothesis	“has	become	quite	murky	with
inconsistencies	in	the	literature.”
38
In	this	same	review,
38
	the	authors	summarized	additional	studies	that
indirectly	compared	breast-feeding	practices	associated	with	cow’s	milk
consumption	and	Type	1	diabetes.	This	compilation	involved	fifty-two
possible	comparisons,	twenty	of	which	were	statistically	significant.	Of	these
twenty	significant	findings,
nineteen	favored	an	association	of	cow’s	milk	with
disease,	and	only	one	did	not
.	Again	the	odds	heavily	favored	the
hypothesized	association,	something	that	the	authors	failed	to	note.
I	cite	this	example	not	only	to	support	the	evidence	showing	a	cow’s	milk
effect	on	Type	1	diabetes,	but	also	to	illustrate	one	tactic	that	is	often	used	to
make	something	controversial	when	it	is	not.	This	practice	is	more	common
than	it	should	be	and	is	a	source	of	unnecessary	confusion.	When	researchers
do	this—even	if	they	do	it	unintentionally—they	often	have	a	serious
prejudice	against	the	hypothesis	in	the	first	place.	Indeed,	shortly	after	I	wrote
this,	I	heard	a	brief	National	Public	Radio	interview	on	the	Type	1	diabetes
problem	with	the	senior	author
of	this	review	paper.
38
	Suffice	it	to	say,	the
author	did	not	acknowledge	the	evidence	for	the	cow’s	milk	hypothesis.
Because	this	issue	has	mammoth	financial	implications	for	American
agriculture,	and	because	so	many	people	have	such	intense	personal	biases
against	it,	it	is	unlikely	that	this	diabetes	research	will	reach	the	American
media	anytime	soon.	However,	the	depth	and	breadth	of	evidence	now
implicating	cow’s	milk	as	a	cause	of	Type	1	diabetes	is	overwhelming,	even
though	the	very	complex	mechanistic	details	are	not	yet	fully	understood.	We
not	only	have	evidence	of	the	danger	of	cow’s	milk,	we	also	have
considerable	evidence	showing	that	the	association	between	diabetes	and
cow’s	milk	is	biologically	plausible.	Human	breast	milk	is	the	perfect	food	for
an	infant,	and	one	of	the	most	damaging	things	a	mother	can	do	is	to
substitute	the	milk	of	a	cow	for	her	own.MULTIPLE	SCLEROSIS	AND	OTHER
AUTOIMMUNE	DISEASES
Multiple	sclerosis	(MS)	is	a	particularly	difficult	autoimmune	disease,	both
for	those	who	have	it	and	for	those	who	care	for	its	victims.	It	is	a	lifelong
battle	involving	a	variety	of	unpredictable	and	serious	disabilities.	MS
patients	often	pass	through	episodes	of	acute	attacks	while	gradually	losing
their	ability	to	walk	or	to	see.	After	ten	to	fifteen	years,	they	often	are
confined	to	a	wheelchair,	and	then	to	a	bed	for	the	rest	of	their	lives.
About	400,000	people	in	the	U.S.	alone	have	the	disease,	according	to	the
National	Multiple	Sclerosis	Society.
39
	It	is	a	disease	that	is	initially	diagnosed
between	twenty	and	forty	years	of	age	and	strikes	women	about	three	times
more	often	than	men.
Even	though	there	is	widespread	medical	and	scientific	interest	in	this
disease,	most	authorities	claim	to	know	very	little	about	causes	or	cures.
Major	multiple	sclerosis	Internet	Web	sites	all	claim	that	the	disease	is	an
enigma.	They	generally	list	genetics,	viruses	and	environmental	factors	as
possibly	playing	roles	in	the	development	of	this	disease	but	pay	almost	no
heed	to	a	possible	role	for	diet.	This	is	peculiar	considering	the	wealth	of
intriguing	information	on	the	effects	of	food	that	is	available	from	reputable
research	reports.
40–42
	Once	again	cow’s	milk	appears	to	play	an	important
role.
The	“multiple”	symptoms	of	this	disease	represent	a	nervous	system	gone
awry.	The	electrical	signals	carrying	messages	to	and	from	the	central	nervous
system	(brain	and	spinal	cord)	and	out	through	the	peripheral	nervous	system
to	the	rest	of	the	body	are	not	well	coordinated
and	controlled.	This	is	because
the	insulating	cover	or	sheath	of	the	nerve	fibers,	the	myelin,	is	being
destroyed	by	an	autoimmune	reaction.	Think	of	what	would	happen	to	your
household	wiring	if	the	electrical	insulation	became	thin	or	was	stripped	away
leaving	bare	wires.	The	electrical	signals	would	be	short-circuited.	That	is
what	happens	with	MS;	the	wayward	electrical	signals	may	destroy	cells	and
“burn”	patches	of	neighboring	tissue,	leaving	little	scars	or	bits	of	sclerotic
tissue.	These	“burns”	can	become	serious	and	ultimately	destroy	the	body.
The	initial	research	showing	an	effect	of	diet	on	MS	goes	back	more	than
half	a	century	to	the	research	of	Dr.	Roy	Swank,	who	began	his	work	in
Norway	and	at	the	Montreal	Neurological	Institute	during	the	1940s.	Later,
Dr.	Swank	headed	the	Division	of	Neurology	at	the	University	of	Oregon
Medical	School.
43
Dr.	Swank	became	interested	in	the	dietary	connection	when	he	learnedthat	MS	appeared	to


irely absent in civilization. Thus, while the wild animal is receiving excellent nutrition when food is available, it is
starving when food is not available. When the animal is
thirsty, it must drink from sewage-polluted water if no other
source of water exists. If the animal lives in an area which has
been subjected to treatment with insecticide sprays, much of its food supply may be poisoned. If ticks carrying tulmaria
and other transmissible diseases are active, no means of
defense are available. When injury from predators or
accidents occurs, no special care of the animal is possible.
When heavy snow and severe cold strike, there is no
protection against excessive exposure.
   In consideration of all of these facts, it would be far too
much to expect to find a condition of perfect health existing
throughout wild nature. The wonder is not that wild animals
are subject to some disease; the wonder is that they are able
to survive at all. The fact that they do survive and also
maintain a high level of physical excellence in many respects is important to us. Certainly much of the good health that
does exist in wild nature may be attributed to the use of raw
foods, and if good nutrition during times of food availability did not exist, it is doubtful that the animal could be carried
through many periods of intense stress, exposure, and food
scarcity. The use of raw food in nature gives health and vigor
to all biological life. If only cooked foods were available, it is
certain that life could not exist on its present scale, and the
extinction of many species would be probable.

I
NFECTIONS
   Biologists have often reported the existence of infectious
diseases in wild animals. It cannot be said that such diseases
are especially common, but they do occur. The reasons
behind the e pizootics which occasionall y spread throu gh animals of a particular area are not as yet fully understood. It
is known that most wild animals carry ticks which can
produce disease. When a particular species has multiplied
beyond the normal carrying capacity of the land, and sufficient food is no longer available, the ticks multiply in
number and their hosts may succumb to disease. Careful
studies of wild animal life have shown that cyclic reductions
in the numbers of certain species occur after a peak in
numbers has been reached, which exceeds the toleration point of range capacity. The causes of disease under such
conditions are not ascribed to malnutrition, although they can
be due in part to undernutrition, due to insufficient quantity of
food.
   Parasites are abundant in wild nature, but they seldom
seriously affect their host and their presence is of little
importance. In nature a live-and-let-live compromise—a mutual modus vivendi— has been established between
parasites and animals, and the presence of thousands of
parasites does not necessarily produce disease or cause death.
Most wild grouse, for instance, harbor thousands of minute
threadworms, but this has no noticeable ill-effects upon the health and vigor of the bird. It is only when the normal
conditions of animal life are altered, usually by human
interference, that parasites will gain the upper hand and
enfeeble their hosts. Continuous bad weather, a lack of food,
or close inbreeding within a stock may also tend to lower animal vigor and allow parasites to multiply enormously and
bring about fatal results. Fortunately, such conditions are not
sufficiently frequent or severe to produce a significant
amount of disease in wild animal life.

W
ILD ANIMAL DENTITION
   The real superiority of wild animal health—and this may be
attributed very largely to the use of uncooked food—is shown
by the almost complete absence of dental decay, and the very
low rate of parodontal disease, in all animals living under
natural conditions. The most complete study of wild animal
dentition ever undertaken was that of the British scientist, Sir Frank Colyer. A total of 18,365 wild animal skulls were
examined, covering all major groups of mammals. The
percentage of skulls showing traces of decay was less than
one-fifth of one per cent in all groups except the primates,
and in the latter the percentage was only 1.4 per cent. There was also remarkable freedom from infection in teeth which
had been injured in battle or accident. Even in the case of
severe injury, when teeth had been split through the pulp,
healin
g usuall y took place without su ppuration. Parodontal disease, involving localized bone destruction in the tissues
surrounding the teeth, was enti rely absent in some animal
groups and extremely rare in others. Hypoplasia, a condition
involving pitting of the teeth, was seldom noted in wild animal skulls, and was of a mild type in the few discovered
cases. Likewise, abnormal positions of teeth were noted in
wild animals, but only in a small percentage of cases and
involving slight irregularities of the dental arch.
   Colyer also studied the skulls of large numbers of captive
animals, and he found the presence of much dental decay,
parodontal disease, hypoplasia, and variation in tooth position in many of the specimens. The great contrast between the
near-perfect condition of wild animal dentition and the many
defects of captive animal dentition was always apparent.
Parodontal disease was the most severe affection of the
captive animals. Colyer stated that "The disease is caused by an alteration in the character of the diet of the animal, either
of a physical or chemical nature—in other words, by a
departure from natural diet and conditions." Other dental
defects in captive animals were also attributed to the feeding
of artificial foodstuffs which would not be consumed in wild nature. Colyer's important research is strong evidence for the
value of raw foods in maintaining excellent dentition with high immunity to all forms of oral pathology.
   Superior wild animal health is also manifested in other
ways. Sexual pathology is considered extremely rare in
nature. Degenerative diseases doubtless exist, but they are not
common. Dr. Herbert Fox, the famous veterinarian of the Philadelphia Zoological Garden, has made the most extensive
of all studies on the health of wild animals. He reports finding
less disease in recently captured wild animals than in those which are reared under zoological conditions. Concerning
neoplasms, Dr. Fox states that "there is an impression of their
extreme scarcity among wild animals." Dr. Fox found
arthritis in wild specimens but only in an extremely small
percentage of cases. Parasites were common, but they did not appear to lower animal vigor or act as an important cause of
disease.

S
ENILITY
   As many wild animals are victims of predation, accidents,
deep snows, sub-zero cold, etc., it cannot be said that their
average duration of life is especially long. Yet some wild
creatures doubtless do reach the natural termination of their
existence, and this is accomplished with fewer signs of aging than are seen in civilized man. The biolo
gist, Sir J. Arthur Thompson, has often referred to the healthfulness of nature as
being manifested by the absence of senility and the rarity of
more than mild senescence. He states that man has "a
monopoly of senility" and in wild nature "there may be indications of senescence or normal aging, but there is no
senility." It is difficult to tell the age of some mature animals
without examining the teeth for wear. After maturity is
reached, the aging process is very slow, and all animals look
very much alike. A decrepit animal is so rare that few naturalists, hunters, or trappers ever see one. As Thompson so
well points out: "Nature has much more to teach man than he
has yet learned, and it would be well, indeed, if man could
come closer to wild nature's standard of positive health and prolonged youthful-ness."

H
EALTH OF THE PRIMATES
   In the animal world, the primates are man's closest relative
from the standpoint of comparative anatomy and physiology. Their excellent example of health and longevity while living
on raw foods in their natural habitat is of special importance
to us. According to the naturalist, Barnes, the gorillas live in
nature a "life free from molestation, famine, or disease, also
judging by the worn teeth of one animal I secured, live in my
opinion, to much greater age than man." On the authority of
the primitive Dyaks of Borneo, who are in the best position to
know, the orangutan lives in nature fully 40 to 50 years
longer than man, and it is not seen to suffer from disease
during this period. Chimpanzees, gibbons, and baboons have a shorter life span, though they live far longer in the wild
state than they do in captivity, and they are quite free from
the symptoms of senility. Indeed, explorers and hunters in Africa almost never report seeing a senile primate. The
gorilla has been seen to lose a part of pigmentation of hair in
advanced years—the hair on the back and shoulders assumes
a silver shade—though this is indication of normal senescence rather than the pathology of senility.

HY ANIMALS ARE HEALTHY
   Philosophers of the past have referred to the health and
vigor of the wild and savage life, but, like Rousseau, they mistaking


 was easier and a better tone developed in the bowel. It’s not a matter of how harshly you le t water
into the bowel, how ba llooned you make the bowel or even how much you can hold. You eliminate as you need to, and that is what
develops a bowel wall. The colema board and associated parts represent a major advance for those interested in getting involv ed in
their own healing pr ocess. Not only does it make a colon treatment possible at home, but it also makes for easier planning of one’s
routine, time savings and puts you in control of the process. This equipment is light weight and inexpensive, easily stored a nd can
travel with you. Cutting the board in half and hinging it will allow you to pack it into a handy travel bag acceptable to most
transportation systems.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR TAKING A COLEMA
The colema board has been designed to provide a safe and easy way to take a high en ema. Once you are in the correct position, it
is possible to relax and virtually enjoy the rest of the procedure. Both hands are free so you may massage the abdomen and co lon.
For best results, massaging is most important.
Place body -temperature water in a  four or five gallon plastic bucket; do not fill completely.
The pail of water may hang on a hook, shower rod or be placed on a sink top or box. Make sure that your bucket is sturdy enou gh
to hold 5 gallons of water and that your hanging point is strong enough to hold the full bucket. There should be approximately four
feet between the colema board and the bottom of the pail. Add the mixture you are using (coffee and vinegar, clay water or ga rlic)
into the water.
Place the working end of the colema board over the toilet. The top of the board, where the head rests, may be placed on a chair or
the side of the tub for convenience. To prevent splashing of expelled fecal matter, place the lid for the splash board over t he end
area of the colema board.
Check to make sure the water can run freely through the tube that goes to the rectum.
Place a folded towel or foam pad on the board so that it will be comfortable to lie on. Before inserting the colema tip into the tube
on the board, rinse well. Apply a small amoun t of lubricant on the rectal tube so colema tip will be easily inserted, being careful
not to clog the holes. Position your body on colema board in order to easily insert the colema tip into the rectum. Slide bod y down
until the buttocks touch the wooden e dges of the support.
Open clamp to allow the solution to flow into the colon. You do not have to remove the rectal tip in order to evacuate. The f ecal
matter will bypass the tip, allowing normal bowel action. The colema board encourages normal peristalsis without producing
bowel distension. Begin abdomen massage. Start massaging upward on your left side. If you find any tender or sore areas,
continue to massage until the tenderness is gone. Continue up to the ribs on the left, then across the abdomen and do wn the right
side. This brings the solution to the ascending colon. When cramping or the desire to evacuate occurs, close off the water cl amp
(in-flow) and simply relieve the bowel. The small, pencil -like tip will allow free elimination without being remov ed.
Continue this procedure until you have eliminated the bulk of fecal mass or until you have exhausted the water contents in th e
bucket. This will normally take about 30 minutes. Be sure to clamp off tube before all the water is used, iin order to mainta in the
siphon action in the hose.
Upon completion of the colema, clean the board and tubes with a germicidal solution. When removing the tip for cleaning, be s ure
to replace the piece of 1/4 -inch rubber tubing that holds the tip on the adjustable holder of  the rectal tube. It is suggested that the
tip be immersed in a germicidal solution and stored until the next colema.
SIPHONING THE HOSE
To start the water flow in the hose you must siphon it. This is accomplished by putting the end that goes in the bucket  under the
faucet. Run water through it, past the u -tu be, then hold it up in the air so the water can run down the long part of the hose. Once it
has run down, close the clamp, then start it in the same way you did before and your siphon will be working. The idea is that when
water is pulled down the long part of the hose it will naturally draw the water up the hose from the bucket and around the u -tube.
To keep the siphon flow, always clamp off the hose before the bucket has run dry. This way you will ret ain your suction without
having to re -siphon. If the bucket does run dry, you must repeat the starting| procedure. Another way to drain the bucket is to
attach a small plastic fitting into a hole at the base of the bucket. Attach the neoprene hose to this fitting and the other end to the
colema board.

ADDITIONS TO THE COLEMA WATER SOLUTION
There are a few additives I might mention to use in the colema water. First of all, you can add a pint of coffee. Coffee help s bring
down bile from the liver and stimula tes the bowel wall to throw out the toxic material faster. You can also add clay water, which I
believe has a great effect on the mucus membrane, loosening it and releasing it faster. Of course, this procedure is repeated
two times a day for the seven -day period. After the week, the Maintenance Program is followed for seven weeks. It is
recommended that you follow this with another cleansing program. I feel this is the Ultimate Cleansing Program, a process whi ch
completely and thoroughly removes the toxic m aterial from the bowel.

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
The Ultimate Tissue Cleansing System is very good at overcoming pain. Pain of all kinds from any part of the body, such as in
arthritis, headaches, etc. In overcoming serious degenerative disease, it is re commended that the treatment be ongoing and
constantly applied for possibly one year and perhaps longer. It should be understood that this treatment cannot be considered  a
“cure all,” but rather is an important step for leading the body to detoxification a nd cleansing. Treatment must be given according
to the patient’s responsiveness - watch for reactions closely.
Three days may be all a patient can endure to begin with, especially with the elderly and very weak.
One day may be all that can be safely admini stered if the patient drops in energy level severely. Please remember that reactions
can set in quickly and must be attended to at once.
This is the most powerful detoxifying program I know of. Approach it with respect. We are unleashing potent healing pow ers that
may be overwhelming to the uninitiated.

COLEMA PREPARATION
Morning Colema
Add 1 pint of coffee and 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar to a little less than 5 gallons of water. (To prepare coffee, allo w 2
tablespoons of coffee to 1 pint of water; b ring to a rolling boil; let stand 15 minutes before using. You may want to make a 2 -day
supply of coffee each time).
Massage abdomen in rolling motion or use vibrator on colon, working from left side up to transverse colon, across abdomen lef t to
right, do wn ascending colon the right side.

Evening Colema
Add 1/2 to 1 cup of clay water to 5 gallons of water. Repeat massage or use vibrator. DO NOT MIX COFFEE AND CLAY
WATER BECAUSE THEY COUNTERACT ONE ANOTHER.
If you think you may have worms, you can substitu te garlic enemas for the clay water on the third and fourth days of the program.
(Even if you do not have worms, this is a good bowel cleanser). To prepare, place four unpeeled garlic cloves (clean) in a bl ender
with one cup of water; liquefy, strain liqui d and add to the colema water; take the colema as usual. Molasses colemas are also
good; add 2 tablespoons molasses to the colema water. No other ingredient is added.
During the 7 -day program, you may wish to have massages, foot reflexology or epsom salt baths; all are good.

Optional After Colemas
You may use rectal implants. All implants are placed in a baby enema syringe and squeezed into the rectum. For colitis or
bleeding, use 1 cup of flaxseed tea and 2 tablespoons of liquid chlorophyll or use 3 to 5  crushed Green Life tablets, and insert as
much liquid as can beheld. To assist elimination, add 1 heaping tablespoon of Green Life powder, 1/3 cup clay water and add
distilled water to thin the mixture enough to let it flow freely through the syringe.
After the 7 -day program, drink acidophilus culture for one month. Use 1 cup morning and night; this should follow each 7 -day
program. (Recommended: Continental, Kovac brands or Eugalan Topfer Forte

more money so he  could  make the  trip. He  was told  that by the  right use
of this law  he should  only see himself with his child  and let the  way be left

Your own wonderful human imagination is the  actual creative  power  of
God within you. It   is your savior. If you  were thirsty, water  would  be your
savior. If you  needed  a job, employment would  be your savior. Your imagi -
nation is the  power  to save  you from whatever  circumstances you now
find yourself. You  can experience your heart’s desire  through the  use of
your imagination. Nothing  is impossible  to your imagination. Your imagi -
nation is unlimited  in what it can accomplish. If you  can imagine  some -
thing, you  can achieve  it.
Let me  give you an example.  If you  were unable  to walk  and were con-
fined to a wheelchair, you  could  close your eyes and  imagine  yourself run -
ning on the  beach or wading  in the  water. If you  would  imagine  yourself
doing  this until it took  on the  tones of reality, you  could  accomplish a
healing  that would  allow you to actually walk  or run.
The way to use  your imagination creatively is this. Relax in a  chair or on
a bed and close your eyes. First determine  what it is you  wish to experi -
ence. Then, in this state  of complete  relaxation, bring  to mind  the end re-
sult of what it is you  desire. In other  words, if you  were seeking  a promo -
tion at work, the  end result might be  that people  would congratulate you
on your promotion. You  might move  to a larger office. You  would  enjoy
an increase  in pay. Take any one  of these  events and, with your eyes
closed, actually hear your friends congratulate  you on your promotion.
Feel their hand  in yours as they tell you  how happy they are  for you.
By actually feeling  that you  are being  congratulated,  your imagination will
go to work  to bring about that state  in your outer  world. You  need not be
concerned  about how  this will  be accomplished.  Your imagination will use
whatever  natural means are  necessary to bring it about. “I am the  begin -
ning and the end.” “My ways are  past finding  out.” What you  do in imagi -
nation is an instantaneous creative  act. However, in this three  dimensional
world, events appear  in a time sequence. Therefore,  it may take a  short
interval of time  to realize in the  outer  world  what you  have just experi -
enced  in imagination. After  you have performed  this act in your imagina -
tion, open your eyes and  go about your normal, natural  affairs, confident
that what you  have done must come  to fruition in your world. Make your
inner conversations conform to your imaginal act. You  have planted a
seed and you will soon see the  harvest of that which you  have sowed.
When you  go into your imagination, make sure  that you  are actually per -
forming  the action, hearing  the words, touching  the object, or smelling
the aroma  in your self conceived drama.  What you  do in your imagination
is not merely a  daydream in which you see events in your mind’s eye. You
must enter  the dream as if you  were actually there. You  must make
“then”  now and make “there”  here. To make this perfectly clear, imagine

goal. In that  case, you  would  not merely see a  new car in your mind’s

steering  wheel. Smell the  newness of the  interior. Feel yourself enjoying
a comfortable  ride. Feel the  happiness that would  be yours after  accom -

That which you  experience in imagination is an actual creative  act. It is a

Dr. Robert R. Gross:
BIRTH DEFECTS CAN  BE AVOIDED!
An Urgent Message to Prospective Parents

Life's grisliest disasters and maladjustments take place years before conception and then following, in the
womb " "As mother, so is the child. Most congenital deformities can be prevented, and monstrosities that
have appalled and frightened mankind since antiquity should become avoidable."

INTRODUCTION
Hygienic doctor Robert R. Gross did have a hygienic fasting retreat (The Pauling Health Manor) in the New York area for 25
plus years - together  with his wife, cookbook author Joy Gross.

 Each of us is the sum of what he was born with and everything that has happened to him up to this
moment. He is the product of his inheritance, intra - and extra -uterine environment, cultural background, the
personality of his parents, school and religious influences, and the customs and habits of the society in
which he lives.
Most of what has made us what we are was beyond our control. We realize this, not to weep over it, but
also not to let it pursue us throughout our life. We cannot rewrite the past but we can modify the present.
We can reshape the future by supporting the will to live in times of stress with Natural Hygiene knowledge.
Thus, we may overcome the inevitable crises in life with the least da mage and with the most momentum for
proceeding on our route in making our lives as rich and happy as they can be made.

INHERITANCE OR PREVENTABLE ACCIDENTS?
To a very limited extent inheritance is responsible for some deformities, susceptibilities that le ad to imperfect development, and
abnormal functions of the body. These deviations would be due to grossly microscopic entitles called "genes," located in the
chromosomes which, in turn, are found within the nuclei of the reproductive cells (ova and spermat ozoa). This inheritance or

hereditary factor is tremendously overplayed in importance and incorrectly blamed for the tragedies encountered in births and
infant life.
Natural Hygiene has always - and within the past few years, the epidemiologist of the medical profession also - realized that
most congenital (resulting from one's heredity) deformities are not foreordained by heredity but are preventable accidents of
development in the womb. It is very possible to circumvent most congenital deformities by improving the preparation for
pregnancy and by careful attention to stresses and Natural Hygiene habits during this period.

START OF LIFE
The life of an individual begin s not on the day he is born but even long before he is conceived. Life's grisliest disasters and
maladjustments take place, as often as not, years before conception and, then following, in the womb. Here, as an embryo (the
developmental stage until three months) and fetus (the developmental stage from three months to birth) he is subject to the
action of the elements and malice of the mother's non -hygienic living habits. These catastrophies go unnoticed at the time; they
may be signaled only by a rash, occ asional headache, and vomiting, irrascible temperament or nervousness.
For often there isn't any sign of the tragedy until the baby is born with a single eye (cyclopia) or a dwarfed body, a cleft palate,
unhearing ears, unseeing eyes, a blighted mind, cata racts, monstrosities, heart disease, or heart and organs being left outside
the chest cavity, or in failure of one or both legs or arms to develop, or in erythroblastosis fetalis.
Concern with congenital deformity has its roots in antiquity and the birth o f a deformed baby in ancient times evoked fear and
awe.
In savage cultures such babies were often sacrificed to the gods or thrown into a river as possessed of evil spirits. Even in  less
crude societies the mothers were sometimes brought to trial on mystical grounds and occasionally were burned at the stake. In
recent times the blame had been transferred mainly to the genes and family heredity in explaining the birth of freaks.
Experiments on animals, and Hygienists disdain this practice, have demonst rated conclusively that crippling deformities arise
from injuries and irritations to the embryo at certain stages of its development. An embryo that began its life with perfectl y
normal "genes" may, by the time it is born, have only one eye or two heads or  three legs.
External stresses applied to these animals included feeding deficient diets, subjection to extremes of temperature, presentat ion
of mazes and puzzles to unnerve and perplex them, diminution of oxygen, reduction of sufficient sleep and rest and  other
agents used to produce enervation. Effects of like disturbances and adverse influences on human pregnant women have been
proved beyond doubt.
•  •  •  •   Alcohol, nicotine, caffeine - the unholy trinity;
•  •  •  •   white sugar and white flour pro ducts,
•  •  •  •   canned, devitalized, demineralized and processed foods,
•   lack of sufficient sunshine, fresh air, proper exercise; mental poise and sufficient rest
are all devastating factors indulged in during pregnancy and cause birth mishaps of va rious kinds.

•  •  •  •   Anesthesia, surgery, exposure to X -rays, vitamin pills, cortisone and hormonal intoxication
•   and all drugs
should be completely avoided for they are hazardous and have profound effects upon the embryo particularly in the early
stages when the organs are in a "semi -fluid state."

TIME TABLE OF DEFECTS
The consequences that ensue from these above -named insults to the unborn baby depend upon the time they occur or on the
time that their cumulative poisonous effects has reached bey ond the danger point of toleration.
It is possible to draft a timetable or calendar, which relates deformities to the age of the embryo at the time of injury or passing
the vital toleration point of accumulated material toxins.
The latter are caused by (1)  an incorrect mode of living and by (2) consumption of drugs.
•   Stresses producing a one -eyed baby generally may come during the first week or two after fertilization of the egg for at this
time the cellular parts from which the two eyes will develop are  so close together as to be virtually single.
•   Next in order comes the stage at which conjoined (so -called siamese) twins may originate from an injury which prevents
separation of the two individuals.
•   In about the third week critical injury or "tole ration toxins" may result in the heart or other organs being left outside the body
cavity, or maldevelopment of legs or arms may occur - because this is the time when the heart and viscera are still outside
the body cavity and the limb buds are formed and starting to grow.
•   Injury in the fourth week, when the windpipe is developing from the gullet, may produce the well -known defect, which leaves
an opening between the windpipe and gullet - so-called tracheo -esophageal fistula.
•   In the fifth week, when  the lenses of the eye are forming, the embryo is vulnerable to congenital cataract.
•   During the seventh week it may be doomed to a cleft palate for the separated two halves of the palate normally start to
close at this time.
•   Injury or vital toxic a ccumulation in the eighth week may produce mongolism. It is at this point that the embryo begins to
develop the base of the brain and skull, the wall of the heart, the nasal bones and the fingers - all structures that are
blighted in mongolism.

•   The inner ear undergoes rapid differentiation during the ninth week and a mishap or "toxic torrent" at this period may re sult
in a deaf baby.
This is only part of the list of defects that can be created at the respective ages of the embryo and the whole matter rests on
quite a more or less orderly, scientific basis. These defects actually occurring during the various critical stage s


omy
(removal of pituitary gland). Marked degranulation of the anterior pituitary is found in both the
abnormal young and the adult sterile animals. Lack of vitamin E therefore produces a virtual
nutritional hypophysectomy in the young rat.
    The work recently done in this field by Dr. Hector Mortimer and his associates in McGill
University, Montreal, has included studies of skull development of rats. He has shown that the
surgical removal of the pituitary body at the base of the brain in very young rats produces regularly
a certain type of defect in skull development. This has been characterized by a lack of
development forward of the muzzle or face, with a narrowing of the nose and dental arches. He
found that by the addition of extracts made from the pituitary glands, which he had removed
surgically, he entirely prevented the development of these defects, thereby establishing the relation
of the injury to deficiencies of the hormones developed by that organ. Another approach to the
problem on which he has expended much fruitful effort, has been in connection with the study of
the skulls of individuals who are known to have disturbances in the functioning of the pituitary gland
through the interference caused by tumors. Common illustrations are the cases of acromegaly or
giantism. By associating these physical changes in bodily form with each x-ray, data obtained from
skiagraphs, together with the history and the nature of the tumor, considerable information has
been developed. Another important series of studies has included the correlation, by means of the
x-rays, of the skulls of individuals suffering from certain types of physical and mental disturbances,
with certain abnormalities in the skull as shown by the x-rays. By these various means Dr.
Mortimer has been able to divide the various types of skull defects and developmental and growth
defects into distinct classifications. With this yardstick he is able to classify individuals from their
Roentgenograms. It is of interest that in his work, in association with Dr. G. Levine, Dr. A. W.
Rowe and others at the Evans Memorial for Clinical Research and Neuro-Endocrine Research in
Boston, important relationships have been established through the examination of over three
thousand case histories. X-ray records of the skull are included in the studies. They report that
independent and previous physiological investigations gave evidence at the time of the examination
of disturbed pituitary function. Dr. Mortimer's excellent investigations seem to indicate clearly that
facial and dental arch form are directly related to and controlled by the functioning of the pituitary
body in the base of the brain. Dr. Barrie (3)  reports that partial deficiency of vitamin E, as shown in
the case of the female rat, results in the prolongation of gestation which may be continued as long
as ten days beyond the normal period. The offspring under these conditions are abnormal. Further,
animals deficient in vitamin E, occasionally give birth to a litter, but fail to lactate.
    When we realize that one of the best sources of vitamin E is wheat germ, most of which is
removed from white flour, usually along with four-fifths of the mineral, we see one cause of the
tragedy that is overwhelming so many individuals in our modern civilization. In many individuals it
may be wise to reinforce our modern white bread and starchy dietary with wheat germ, which can
be obtained in package form from the manufacturers of flour. As this is put up in cans, all air is
displaced with an inert gas when the cans are sealed. While in this way oxidation of the embryo
which is very fragile, is prevented, as soon as the seal is broken, oxidation sets in and progresses7/29/13 Nutrition and Physical Degeneration
gutenberg.net.au/ebooks02/0200251h.html#toc 219/250rapidly, producing a product that is not comparable to the wheat embryo of freshly cracked whole
wheat. My investigations indicate that Nature has put just the right amount of embryo in each grain
of wheat to accompany that quantity of food. If the whole wheat is prepared and eaten promptly
after grinding and exposing the embryo to oxidation, the effect desired by Nature is adequately
provided.
    It is important to emphasize in connection with the development of the deformities of the face
that other skeletal deficiencies or abnormalities result from the same disturbing factors. One of
these is the narrowing of the entire body, with a tendency to increase in height. This is shown in
many of the family groups of modernized primitives. The effect of this narrowing of the body,
which in girls results in the boyish type of figure due to the narrowing of the hips, introduces an
entirely new and serious problem in the experience of our modern civilization when confronted with
the problems of childbirth.
    Among primitive races living in a primitive state childbirth was a very simple and rapid process,
accompanied by little fear or apprehension; whereas, in the modernized descendants, even in the
first and second generations of those individuals born to parents after they had adopted the foods
of modern white civilizations, serious trouble was often experienced.
    We have been considering the changes which take place in the skeletal growth as a result of the
disturbances in the functioning of the pituitary body of the individual after birth, or of the mother
during the prenatal period. We are also concerned with changes in the soft tissues, particularly the
brain. I have presented data indicating that a very large percentage of mentally backward children
have disturbances in facial development. The available data also indicate that a large percentage of
those who are seriously injured in facial form have some disturbance in their mental or moral
character. Whether there is relationship between the processes which develop these physical
abnormalities in brain growth and mental efficiency, including emotional states and character traits
is now to be considered.
    An important contribution has been made to this phase of the problem by Dr. James Papez,
Professor of Anatomy at Cornell University, (4)  who concludes his report:
    Is emotion a magic product, or is it a physiologic process which depends on an anatomic
mechanism?... The evidence presented is... suggestive of such a mechanism as a unit within
the larger architectural mosaic of the brain.
    Research data have been presented which deal with the anatomical defects of the brain of
individuals suffering from the typical mental and physical patterns of the so-called Mongolian idiot.
In these cases the gyrus cinguli of the brain were found to be absent, which indicates the
impossibility that these individuals function normally either physically or mentally.
    Modern civilization has provided a large group of the defectives known as Mongolian idiots.
They have very definite characteristics both physical and mental. Among the former, one of the
most universal expressions is a vacant stare associated with a face that is markedly
underdeveloped in the middle third, usually accompanied by narrow nostrils and a narrow upper
dental arch.
    One of the outstanding characteristics of the group is their inability to develop mentally beyond
three to eight years of age. Because of the difficulty of building a character and intelligence level
beyond infancy, these unfortunates are housed largely in state institutions for feebleminded. Since
the physical picture is similar to that which occurs in a much less severe form in a large number of
individuals in our modern civilization, it is important that we study this group in the light of the
information that is available with regard to their physical, mental and moral characteristics, and in
the light of such information as is available regarding their origin.
    The surveys that have been made reveal the fact that nearly all of them are born to mothers
more than forty years of age, and apparently at a period of very low efficiency in reproductive
capacity. While most of the discussion and literature stress the importance of the age of the7/29/13 Nutrition and Physical Degeneration
gutenberg.net.au/ebooks02/0200251h.html#toc 220/250mother, some data are now available which throw responsibility also on the paternal side.
    Korosi, as reported by Tredgold in Mental Deficiency, came to the conclusion as a result of the
investigation of 24,000 unselected individuals that the children of fathers below twenty or above
forty years of age are weaker than the children of fathers between these ages. Also, the children of
mothers over forty years of age are weaker than those born to mothers below this age. Tredgold
presents data connecting defective structures in the brain with certain phases of physical behavior
and mental deficiencies. He quotes many authors whose data correspond with his own. Much of
this material relates to accounts of incomplete prenatal development of nerve structures in the
brain.
    We are particularly interested in the origin and the nature of the brain lesions. Penrose, (5) in
analyzing the relative etiologic importance of birth order and maternal age in Mongolism presents
data obtained from an examination of 224 defectives in which the total number of children in all the
families involved was 1,013. Accordingly, in these families approximately 20 per cent were so
affected. The average number of children per family was five and one-half. He states:
    Mongolian imbeciles are very often born last in a long family. This fact, which was pointed
out many years ago by Shuttleworth, has led clinicians to believe that Mongolism is to some
extent a product of the exhaustion of maternal reproductive powers due to frequent child
bearing.... The conclusion is widely accepted with the reservation that the affected child is not
necessarily born at the end of the family. Several cases are first-born, in fact, and it is sometimes
stated that the conditions occur more frequently


 of ancient
times—Zoroaster at 1,000. Muhammad I’ve repeatedly calibrated at 700, so
there was not the enormous power of spiritual truth to overcome, let’ s say,
the tribal proclivities of that part of the world, perhaps, so the teaching
breaks through—it breaks through. But don’ t forget, it broke through in
Christianity also in the middle. Certainly, the end times being positioned.
The truth of Christianity has broken through by some primitive negativity
and savagery, which expressed itself in that way. And now we see it sort of
delayed in the coming from that part of the world.
So, the spiritual person now is confronted with how to contextualize and
comprehend and understand the current world events, but then again, it has
been that way since I have been on the planet. World War I had just expired,
and then came the Great Depression, and then World War II, and I don’ t
know how many wars since then. And so, we’re always confronted with the
spiritual—the seeming  spiritual dilemmas of the expression of the ego, in its
expression as the actions, collective actions, of society.
In any case, all any of us can do is within our own heart to reach the
highest level of compassion and understanding and try to recontextualize it
compassionately, because in so doing, we undo it. So each of those who
were able to undo great negativity did so because in a way, their heart wassupported by the hearts of all of us. They just didn’ t reach 550 all by their
lonesome, out there on an ice floe, you know. So, the evolution of the
consciousness of mankind is dependent on all the contributions of all of us.
So, each one of us counts, and each one of us counts quite decisively. Each
one of us certainly counts quite decisively. “That’ s a fact: resist” (T rue).
You know, I’ve always been suspicious of holy-sounding religious
teachings, you know what I’m saying. Holy-sounding religious teachings,
you say, “Yeah, right.” I want to see, is that a fact, or is that not a fact?
The Harmony of the Universe
There’ s the question of where astrology, for instance, fits into this whole
picture. Well, if the universe is one karmic whole, one karmic oneness, then
all that’ s within the universe, including its physical expressions as the
planetary systems, et cetera, is part and parcel of that harmony, huh?
Therefore, the planets are also in harmony with that universality. I would
see it that, from a high level—we’ve said that archangels calibrate 50,000
and up, and you realize that we’re talking about logarithmic progression
here—one archangel at 50,000 that even thinks of you is likely to knock
you out of your body for some 20 or 30 years. And you’re lucky to breathe
again. Well anyway, so from some very higher level of Divinity, then...
let’s say, if everything is the interaction of ener gy fields, which can be
represented symbolically as an attractor field, that means that all things are
therefore in harmony. So, I don’ t see a constellation as causing something
within human experience on this planet. I see a third factor out here.
Because of this third factor, this constellation is in this position and this
event is happening commonly within the human experience, but this
astrologic position is not causing the human experience. Both the human
experience and the astrologic positionalities are expressing. So, if it is the
time for great harvesting, let’ s say, that which is supportive of life in all of
its expressions is expressing itself astrologically this way and has greater
crops on this planet at this time, right? And then, at a later time in the cycle,
the harvesting goes down and the astrologic position at that time is
different.
So, to explain the harmony of the universe, which is consistent with the
concept of the holographic universe and also the nonlinear dimensions of
reality, it isn’ t that “this” on this side of the universe is causing  “this,” but itis concordant; and those of you who are familiar with advanced theoretical
physics know that the spin of an electron on... and the spin of an electron
in another part of the universe—this one is not causing  the spin of this
electron, but if this one stops and reverses, so does this, but there’ s no
connection between the two of them. Which means that which you want to
call “cause” is really just a terminology, a verbalization and a concept, and
not a reality. But if you want to say there is a cause, the cause would then be
outside both the electrons and that which causes this electron to go this way
and this one, this way. So, this electron is not causing this. So, to me, an
astrologic position does not cause  pots and pans to break, but the timing of
pots and pans breaking is simultaneous with that but not caused by that, you
understand? Simultaneity does not mean causality. Just as peace appearing
on the earth and all people praying for peace—it doesn’ t mean necessarily
that the praying for the peace is causing  the peace. But the appropriate time
is an appropriate time for all things. And the appropriate timing of peace
appearing and the appropriate time of praying for peace are probably
simultaneous but not causal.
Some Spiritual Sayings Are Not Accurate
There are a lot of sayings, you know, spiritual sayings that are not exactly
accurate. I mean, if they were all accurate, everybody would be enlightened.
A lot of them are greatly inaccurate. To say, “All things are possible with
God,” is usually a hypothetical statement to counter somebody else’ s
argument in order to prove that you’re right. In usage, when looked at
exactly, it cannot be so, because that which God cannot be is “not God.”
“All things are possible with God” is usually used to explain or give some
kind of reification of the potential truth of something preposterous and quite
unlikely. However, there is a correct usage to it within the infinite power of
God in another context, in another sense... No, it’ s still not true. Because
of the nature of creation itself that each thing becomes the essence of its
own potentiality as the fulfillment of its own karma, there can’ t really be the
fulfillment of something else’ s karma, or a bird would turn into a toad. No,
a toad can only become a toad. So, we could say that that which “is” cannot
become that which it is not. It can only be that which it is. That has to do
with the self-identity of reality. The most dif ficult thing to see about in the
enlightened condition—let’ s say, the radical sense of “I”—the thing thatmakes it the most dif ficult to understand is that everything is radically only
that which it is. It sounds like a nonsensical statement, but the ego cannot
deal with anything except creating—cannot make any statement without
creating a duality, thereby negating the reality of that which it is attempting
to describe. Even the word is is incorrect. The radical reality of that which
sits and speaks through this is-ness here is beyond is-ness; it is beyond
beingness. Even a transitive, intransitive verb is incorrect. There is neither a
subject nor a predicate. There is neither a “this” doing a “that,” nor a “here”
as compared to a “there.” Those are all positionalities within mentalization.
Those are all mentalizations. No such thing can be. The only thing that’ s
possible is the reality of the cat being absolutely, completely, 101 percent
cat—not caused by anything extraneous to itself. The only absolute
statement of truth that’ s possible is the word I. To say “am,” the suf fix “am”
to “I,” is already a negation of the reality of the truth of “I,” “is-ness,” and
“beingness,” because the radical reality of that which I am is beyond either
“is-ness” or “beingness.” It is beyond existence or nonexistence. All such
terminologies are mentations. So the most dif ficult thing about seeing the
truth of the reality of who you are is the radical identity of the self as the
Self. That which you subjectively experience as Self is that and nothing
else. Then the ego comes in and tries to destroy that realization by adding
all kinds of adjectives, adverbs. “I am that I am” is already deviating from
truth. “Am-ness,” “beingness” itself, is beyond the radical reality of the
truth of that which you really are. Any verb at all is varying from truth. In
fact, any noun is already varying from truth, because each one is adding
something that is not essential to its essence, to that essence, and thereby
blurring the recognition of the radical reality of its essence. To add the word
“am” after “I” is already in error; it’ s already of f the point.

levels of consciousness on brain physiology and con
comitant neurotransmitters. Important is that from cal

and happiness. Below consciousness level 200, there is
a predominance of adrenaline and animal-instinct sur

Assisting Healing
In the previous chapter, we explored the utilization of
knowledge that arises from studying the nature of con
sciousness itself and its applications to mankind's
problems, especially in the areas of suffering. Now we
will explore the origin of illness and the letting go of it.
This will not be about philosophies or theories;
instead, it will concern what can be clinically verified
in our own personal experiences-that which is true
because we can validate it.This is the basis of clinical
science-the ability to repeatedly duplicate and verify
an observation within our own personal experience
and apply it to our individual problems to see if it
works. Essentially, we are expressing empirical pragma
tism. We will believe what we can prove to be true
through our own experience.
It is important to again explore the relationship
between body, mind, and spirit. It is a useful model that
is experientially real.Whatis the nature ofspirit? Is that
just a concept, a metaphysical extraction, a philosoph
ical position, or is it a conflrmable reality? What is the
exact nature of body, mind, and spirit?
In order to facilitate healing, it is essential to under
stand the relationship between the body, the mind, and
the spirit. It is important to know that the body has no
capacity to experience itself; it is insentient. The arm
cannot experience its armness nor can the leg experi
ence its legness. Instead, we experience the sensations
of the body and where it is in space. Sensations, curi
ously enough, also have no capacity to experience
43 44 HEALING AND RECOVERY
themselves.They have to be experienced in something
that is greater, which is mind. The experience of the
sensations and what they report about the body is actu
ally experienced within the mind.
As surprising as it may seem, the mind cannot expe
rience itself. A thought cannot experience its own
thoughtness; a feeling cannot experience its own feel
ingness; memory cannot experience its own memory
ness. They all have to be experienced in something
greater than the mind.The principle is that each thing
is experienced from an energy field that is less restricted
and less limited; each is always experienced in some
thing that is greater. Therefore, mind is experienced
because of the energy field of consciousness itself.
Consciousness is formless, infinite, and analogous to a
movie screen upon which we experience the move
ment of the movie. It is because ofconsciousness that
we experience what is in mind. That is the basis of
anesthesia in that when we remove consciousness,
there is no experience of either the mind or the body.
Consciousness itself is experienced in the infinite
energy field caped awareness. Because of awareness,
we know what is going on in consciousness. Because
of consciousness, we know what is going on in mind.
Because of mind, we know what the senses are report
ing about the body.Thus, we can see that what we really
are is several levels removed from the body, making it
rather clear that we are not the body.We are that which
is aware within that infinite field of consciousness. This
is very· important to realize, and in meditation, it is
relatively simple to verify the truth that one is that
which is aware of all these levels of reality. 45 ASSISTING HEALING
We will focus on the actual techniques that assist
healing, including how they occur and how to apply
them. We will also focus on the basic principles, such
as how the source of illness is often unconsCious guilt
plus a specific belief system that is aggravated by sup
pressed emotions. I will describe how I used these
techniques and understandings to heal myself of more
than twenty chronic, intractable illnesses that had been
totally refractory, or resistant, to traditional medical
treatment.
With a step-by-step approach, we will see how ill
ness is also a result of programming via the collective.
consciousness (and how not to buy into it), and how it
comes about as a result of belief systems. We will learn
that one can recover from illnesses within the parame
ters ofkarmic inheritance. There is no order of difficulty,
no matter how severe the illness may sound. We will
learn how to energize the self-healer that is present via
Nature in all of us, and we will look at the phenome
non of multiple personalities, which demonstrates the
truth of much of the following information.
Science and psychiatry are studying the clinical
condition of multiple personalities with increasing
interest because it explains so many different phenom
ena. In this condition, more than one personality
expresses itself through the body. Clinically, one per
sonality may have multiple illnesses, such as asthma,
allergies, gout, and many others, but when that person
ality leaves and the other personality comes in, the sec
ond one may well have none of those illnesses whatso
ever. That personality says, "I don't believe in any of
those things. I am not subject to them."As a result, we 46 HEALING AND RECOVERY
will look at the power of the mind over body.
A basic principle of recovery is that we are subject
to what we hold in mind, which may, however, be
unconscious (out of awareness). We will refer to the
Map of Consciousness to make this understandable
rather than sound mystical or puzzling in our expres
sions. It is helpful to remember that the direction ofthe
energy fields indicates whether it is a negative field
with a destructive influence or a positive field. Knowing
this will enable us to feel confident that we are operat
ing from something that is reasonable, confirmable,
and understandable.
Sharing my personal experiences demonstrates the
basic truths being presented here. You already know
these things intuitively, but in making them conscious,
you can use them as therapeutic tools, such as how to
prevent being programmed by a negative belief sys
tem, or how not to buy into a thought system.The mind
is so powerful that what it believes tends to manifest.
An interesting study appeared in the January 1987
issue of Brain-Mind Bulletin entitled "Expectancies:
What You See Is What They Give You." Research by
Princeton University showed that self-fulfilling prophecy
is just that, and what we actively believe tends to
manifest in our behavior and in that of others. This is
what they call a "creative social reality;' a serious issue
that affects everything from stock prices to the arms
race, not to mention everyday interactions (and, addi
tionally, the details of one's personal health).
We will proceed from the premise·that all phenom
ena are experienced in consciousness and address the
level ofconsciousness itself and its expression in mind. 47 ASSISTING HEALING
We will go to the level of cause instead of the level of
effect.The body is at the effect of what is held in mind.
If we want to know what we are holding in mind, all
we have to
