was attempted in those instances when the electro-metric shift
indicated that ovulation had recently occurred. To his and our
delight, the average of successes was considera bly higher using
the electro-metric technique than that employed by other
methods of timing ovulation. It seemed clear, however, that Dr. Langman's main interest
was not only in the timing of ovulation, but also in the problem
of malignancy in the generative tract in women. Fortunately, through a grant, and with the cooperation of the
Bellevue Hospital Gynaecological Service, more than a hundred
patients were examined electro-metrically. The records were
kept carefully and a marked voltage gradient between cervix of
the uterus and a reference electrode on the ventral abdominal
wall often appeared on the recording galvanometer. After a sufficient number of tests had been run to make sure
we were dealing with a valid finding, Dr. Langman and his
assistant examined something in the neighbourhood of one
thousand patients. These patients were on the wards of the
hospital and were subject to a variety of syndromes. They in
cluded fibromas, as well as the usual run of pathological events
in the generative tract of these women. In those that showed a
marked change in the voltage gradient between the cervix and
the ventral abdominal wall, careful watch was kept through sub
sequent laparotomy. There were a hundred and two cases where there was a sig
nificant shift in the voltage gradient, suggesting malignancy. Surgical con�rmation was found in ninety-�ve of the hundred
and two cases. The actual position of the malignancy varied all the way from
the fundus, to the tubes and to the ovarian tissue itself. It is
interesting to note that the electro-metric evidence of sharp volt
age change occurred in malignancies found not only in the im
mediate vicinity of the cervix but also through all the rest of
the generative tract, including the ovary itself. Thus we had an
astonishingly high percentage of successful identification of
r:J. alignancy in the generative tract, confirmed by biopsy. The fact tha t malignancy in the ovarian tissue was recognized
electro -metrically, and confirmed by biopsy-even though the
54 THE FEMALE FIELD
malignant tissue was several centimet res distant from the active
electrode in contact with the cervix-is in line with the dista nt
readings of the EKe and EEe. The order of magnitude of these
changes in voltage gradient was such that the possibility of
changing pH of the generative tract could be ruled out. Surprisingly enough, these findings were never picked up in
the literature and have not been extended further or repeated
under other conditions. This probably is because it is difficult for
people to recognize that these changes represent changes in the
�eld of the system; and, therefore-as in the case of the EKe and
the EEe-the active electrode need not be in direct contact with
the tissue which is showing the greatest changes in voltage
gradient. It took over thirty years before the EKe was perfected to the
point where it could become a useful adjunct in the clinician's
office. By that time the empirical results were so clear-cut that
the value of the electro-cardiogram could not be questioned. The
explanation of EKe, however, has never been really unravelled
satisfactorily. The fact that the electrodes do not have to be in
contact with the heart, that the change is exceedingly rapid and
cannot be explained by electro-phoresis or any of the other simple
answers to the transmission of changes of voltage gradient, was
finally ignored because of the value of the empirical results. Similarly, in the case of the electrical ovulation changes and
the malignancy changes in the generative tract of women, it is
not necessary for the electrode to be in direct contact with the
tissue showing the great change. But the voltage-change is trans
mitted over a distance promptly and in such a form that at
present the only successful explanation is that the electro
metric characters of tissue, in general, and of the generative
tract, in particular, are transmitted by the primary electro
dynamic field. 6
The results reported above suggested that the relationship be
tween ovulation and menstruation was not on quite such a firm
55 THE FE MALE FIELD
foundation as had been generally assumed. There can be no ques
tion that the chemistry of the endocrines is an important factor
in these activities of the generative tract. Primarily, however,
the chemistry provides the energy necessary for these activities,
and it has been almost entirely overlooked that the chemistry
involved in any physiological process must, necessarily, have
direction. The source of this direction can be assumed safely to be the
result of the activity of the nervous system and there is plenty
of evidence in the literature to suggest that in the hypothalamic
region of the brain there are nuclear masses whic h are concerned
primarily with the onset of ovulation, its completion and, also,
that another set of neural mechanisms has equal control over the
menstrual cycle. While experiments on ovulation in humans were going on,
parallel studies were carried out on experimental animals. With
the co-operation of the distinguished gynaecologist, Dr. Luther
Musselman, also Dr. Dorothy Barton, Dr. John Boling, and Dr. Vincent Gott, and numerous patient and cooperative subjects,
studies were carried out on rats, in particular, on rabbits, cats,
and so on. Various stages in the oestrous cycle in animals were
found to have electro-metric correlates which are valuable indi
cators of the kind of physiological processes which are going on
during menstruation, and during the whole cycle of oestrous
phenomena. In addition to the original findings on the rabbit,
Dr. Gott, in particular, extended them to the ovulation phenom
ena in monkeys. As a result of the very generous cooperation of Dr. Gertrude
Van Wagenen. it was possible for Dr. Gott to study the ovulation
problem in a group of Rhesus females. Five animals, for a total of
twelve menstrual cycles, were studied. It was found that in ten
out of twelve cycles there was a significant and consistent peak
of negative voltage that was higher than any other peak in the
cycle and. because of its distinctive pattern, may be distinguished
from any other peaks in the cycle. This distinctive peak occurred
in every cycle between the eleventh and fourteenth day, and this
is the period in which most of the ovulations are known to occur. It is believed that this distinctive and reproducible peak is the
56 THE FEMALE FIELD
electrical concomitant of ovulation. Possibly the two cycles without a significant peak, between
the eleventh and fourteenth days, are anovulatory cycles which
are fairly common in the monkey. Bi-weekly or weekly records
of the abdominal vaginal potential difference were made in two
monkeys from the date of conception until delivery six months
later. In other animals, records were taken from the second
month of pregnancy to the date of delivery. The records tend to level out somewhat as pregnancy pro
ceeds, so that by the third month the graph is almost a horizontal
line. The cervix remains negative after the second week of preg
nancy until the beginning of the third month, except for rare
instances when it becomes positive. By the third month, the
voltage has dropped to near the zero line where it hovers until
delivery. Despite these characteristics which differentiate pregnancy
from the menstrual cycle, there are no significan t and consistent
changes during the first month of pregnancy that might permit
the detection of pregnancy a few days after conception. These results, together with the findings of Dr. John Boling
in the oestrous cycle of the rat, make it quite clear that electro
metrics of the field characteristics of the living organism can
provide useful information about the whole physiology of the
generative tract. Since all of these experiments stemmed from the basic assump
tion that the living organism possesses an electro-dynam ic field
as a whole, with constituent and subsidiary parts or local fields,
which are specific components of the living system, the well
controlled experimental findings confirmed the general validity
of the primary assumption. Any individual component of the whole system has, of course,
its own characteristic field which is a part of the field of the
whole organism. Any variations which may occur can be assumed
to be variations in the flow of energy in the system, a flow of
energy which arises first of all in chemistry and is controlled and
directed by the electro-dynamic field of the whole organism. 57 THE FEMA LE FIELD
1
The experiments which had shown the positive correlation
between the electro-metrics of the generative tract in women and
the presence of malignancy throughout the tract led at once to a
further examination of the possibility of electro-metric correlates
of malignancy elsewhere. In the growth and development of every living system there
is obviously some kind of control of the processes. In the midst
of incredibly complex flux, direction is available for the control
of this growth and for differentiation. As a distinguishe d zoolo
gist once said, 'The growth and development of any living system
would appear to be controlled by someone sitting "on the
organism" and directing its whole living process.'One of the few things we know


 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. Choice: Choose the Highest and Least Selfish
I think what we all tend to do is try to make what seems to be the highest
decision, that which is most beneficial and loving, et cetera. We all try to
make a decision which is, in our view of it, the least selfish. We try to
choose “win-win” over “win-lose.” At the same time, we try to clarify our
perception of the conditions about which we feel we have to make a
decision—whether we’re seeing it in terms of “either/or–ness.” We try to
clarify in our inner mind, so it’ s very complex what our motivations are. Asimple thing like, “Should I pick up a new kitty at the animal shelter?” can
already be quite complex. On the other hand, it can be quite simple because
each and everything, if examined to the full elaboration of which the ego is
capable, becomes extremely complex. There’ s a much easier way to do it. “It’s a good thing to get a nice kitty at the pound: resist” (T rue). We know that having a pet increases longevity. It decreases heart attacks,
drops people’ s blood pressure. I see a lot of depressed people in the of fice,
and I always ask them, “Do you have a pet at home?” “No.” Hmm. Well,
we know that the presence of a pet increases longevity. We know that
they’re therapeutic. We know that they’re very useful in nursing homes. The
nursing homes I liked the best were ones that had dogs running around. If
the nursing home didn’ t have a dog running around, it had a lower
vibration. It did, really. And those which had Christian denominations
running them seemed to have a higher ener gy and vibration. And there were
always friendly dogs running around. So again, it isn’ t that this caused that,
but a higher level of spiritual awareness, whatever, resulted in greater
kindness on the part of the staf f, a higher healing rate. And the presence of
the dog—you can’ t say the dog caused the higher healing rate, but that
which chose to have a dog there saw the importance of love to healing. And
any health-field people who see the importance of love to healing are very
likely to be more capable of bringing about healing in their patients. So
every decision, then, can be seen, of course, from multiple viewpoints. And
that which is most loving is undoubtedly probably what dominates most of
the people on the field of spiritual inquiry. Of course, nowadays we can
calibrate a thing too, but that doesn’ t mean it has to rule you. You know, calibrating things is just verification; it’ s just verification. It’ s
extremely useful. It’ s extremely useful as a research tool. The strangeness
of this particular consciousness here was that it went through a whole great
variety of experiences within the levels of consciousness, and it happened
in a person with a scientific, medical, psychiatric, and psychoanalytic
background. So that the curiosity of the intellect then was—the physician
looked at it and said, “What in the world is that physiologically going on
with the body?” The psychoanalyst wanted to look at it. So, the self-
examination that went on was from the viewpoint which is not exactly
traditional. And the description of the state then was expressed in a form
that expressed the background of the entity. So Power vs. For ce, then, was
coming from the awareness that the scientific world, the world of theNewtonian paradigm, is ruled by logic and reason and science. So, how to
present it, then—first as a Ph.D. dissertation to a university faculty where it
would meet all the strict requirements of a Ph.D. doctoral dissertation—so,
it was first presented there, to the most skeptical academic community to
pass muster there before it went on and began to express itself in the
nonlinear domain. So what I tried to do was create a crossover for that great
block at 499. The great majority of spiritual seekers are in the 400s and
cannot seem to break through that 499 into the 500s. How to make that
bridge comprehensible was really the purpose of the work and the purpose
of the lectures. Certain spiritual information is transformative because it has
within it, innately, such powerful ener gy that merely to hear it already
transforms consciousness. So there is the commitment on the part of this
entity to state all these statements that should be made, knowing that to
merely hear that statement is itself of significance. And we’ll stop very
shortly. “The consciousness level of this community here sitting is over
435” (T rue); “440” (T rue); “442” (T rue); “444” (T rue); “445” (Not true). Four hundred and forty-four—what were we at, 431? We went from 431
to 444. That’ s what we did as a community today. We went from 431 to 444
as a result of just recontextualization of your own spiritual understanding—
just from the material itself, you understand? 431 to 444. The average
lifetime consciousness advances five points. So to go from 431 to 444—13
points—so, that’ s a quite enormous jump. We did that collectively. We did
that collectively. On a certain level, we all own each other. We all own each
other ’s consciousness. We’re all responsible for each other ’s consciousness
—not in a codependent way, but in understanding of the unity of the
consciousness of mankind. Every endeavor that each one of us makes to get
what was just said, it is helping everybody to get what was just said. My
endeavor as a teacher is to try to make it as comprehensible as possible and
defend the good name of God in the process, who has been much maligned
by religion and other people and needs a friend. God needs a friend. God
needs a friend in all of us. Every kind word is the glory of thanking God for
our existence. Your Intention Is the Most Profound Instrument
Any of those things which follow structure and form tend to be in the 400s. Don’ t forget, you are talking about a tool; you’re not talking about theultimate truth that may be revealed as the use of that tool. So many spiritual
practices may calibrate in the 200s, but it would be like calibrating the level
of a shovel, you know. With a shovel you can build the Taj Mahal, so you
can’t say a shovel is a weak instrument. You can build a Taj Mahal or you
can dig your grave, so the shovel is not the whole answer. So, the
consciousness of the person—let’ s say, any particular technique that you’ve
learned—and almost everybody in this room has been around the block a
little bit with dif ferent techniques, dif ferent teachings, dif ferent schools,
different consciousness teachers. The intention, the commitment, the
intention of the seeker is the most profound instrument. So, a person who is
profoundly committed to God and digs with a small shovel will get further
than a person with a small commitment but a major capacity for intellectual
curiosity. Don’ t forget, the intellect itself is greedy, and many people have
many books and have not moved much in their level of consciousness, so
you have to begin to suspect that one is suf fering from intellectual greed. The idea of having read everything and met everybody and known
everybody, and met every guru on the planet, and all, in itself becomes an
addiction. All you have to do is understand the absolute truth of one
sentence, and that’ s sufficient. All you need is one sentence. And so, I say
all spiritual work can start anywhere. You can pick out any place, because
you can unravel the whole sweater from any place on the sweater, isn’ t that
correct? And if you’re willing to be for giving—that alone—all you have to
do is be willing to be for giving everything and anybody, including yourself
and everybody else, no matter where in time or space, including all of
history, and you are already there. So, you don’ t need anything complicated. OceanofPDF.comCONCLUSION

Here are some of the main Truths for


are	brought	into	each	other’s	lives	“for	a	reason,	a	season,	or	a
lifetime.”	It	isn’t	the	length	of	time,	but	rather	the	depth	of	knowing	and
forgiveness	and	growth	that	occurs,	which	determines	the	meaning	of	a
connection	between	two	people. I	love	the	Joni	Mitchell	lyric	that	love	is
souls	touching	souls. Some	people	have	slept	together	for	30	years	but	their
souls	have	never	touched. By	some	estimation,	theirs	is	still	a	successful
marriage	…	but	there	are	many	ways	to	estimate	love. I	once	knew	a	man	who	was	younger	than	I	was	chronologically,	but	much
more	firmly	grounded	in	the	truth	of	his	being	than	I	was	in	mine. I	kept	up
this	inauthentic	mantra	about	how	he	was	much	too	young	for	me,	until	one
day	I	realized	that	the	quizzical	look	on	his	face	wasn’t	disappointment,	it	was
disrespect. He	had	expected	more	of	me. He	expected	me	to	be	more	honest. What	a	convenient	front	for	my	fear	it	was	to	go	on	and	on	about	how	he
hadn’t	had	his	babies	yet	and	since	I	couldn’t	give	him	those	then	of	course	I
wasn’t	the	woman	for	him. “For	a	lifetime,	you’re	probably	right,”	he	said. “But	I	didn’t	ask	you	for	a	lifetime. I	asked	you	for	Saturday	night.”
But	how	can	I	relax	on	Saturday	night,
	I	thought,
when	I	already	know	that
this	is	a	limited	run? I	saw	an	episode	on
Sex	and	the	City
	where	that’s	called
“expiration	dating”:	You	know	in	advance	that	there’s	a	date	past	which	you
can’t	continue	this. It	took	a	while	for	me	to	realize	that	that	had	never
stopped	me	from	enjoying	yogurt,	so	it	didn’t	have	to	stop	me	from	enjoying
men	either. The	idea	of	falling	for	someone	with	whom	there	was	a	built-in	time	limit
seemed	terrifying	at	first,	until	I	realized,
But	isn’t	that	what	death	is? Had	I
ever	said,	“Sorry,	I	can’t	love	you—after	40	or	50	years,	you’ll	probably	be
out	of	here”? No. We	have	the	double	illusion	that	life	is	long	and	love	is
short. In	fact,	life	is	short	but	love	lasts	forever. So	I	gave	the	young	man	a	chance—as	though	I	had	so	much	to	teach	him,
you	see. And	the	irony,	which	was	no	irony	at	all	to	him	but	simply	an
obvious	point,	was	that	he,	carrying	so	much	less	fear	than	I,	came	to	the
experience	with	more	wisdom	and	strength. Whatever	I	had	in	accumulated
knowledge,	he	bested	with	his	more	open	mind:	fewer	rules,	fewer	limits,
fewer	affectations	of	knowing	things	that	can’t	be	known. It	wasn’t	I	who	wasthe	guru	at	love	here;	it	was	he. I	thought	he	might	be	blessed	by	the	love	of
someone	more	knowing	than	he,	but	I	think	I	was	more	blessed	to	be	loved	by
someone	more
unknowing
	than	I. People	are	matched	perfectly	for	the	gifts
they	bring	to	each	other,	and	sometimes	it’s	those	who	teach	us	when
not
	to

introduced	into	our	thought	system	by	a	womanhating	institution,	let’s

 indicating that it is
a negative emotion, as shown by the direction of the
arrow. We see its relative power in this mathematical
model that shows the calibrated energies ofthe differ
ent ftelds.As we go up from the negative emotions of
30,50, and 75 into the positive emotions beginning at
200, we see that their power, from the viewpoint of
physics, actually increases. As we address the energy fteld of Fear, we begin to
realize that being fearful can attach to anything and
everything in our lives. There is nothing in our total 269 WORRY, FEAR, AND ANXIETY
experience as a human being to which fear cannot be
attached. We love our mother, and up comes the fear
of "What if we lose her?" We love our body and up
comes the fear of death or sickness. We love money
and up comes the fear of loss or of being accused of
being greedy. No matter what we think of, fear can be
attached to it. We love our automobile and up comes
the fear of an accident. A fearful person attaches fear
to everything; therefore, everything that comes into
the mind is coming into an energy field of fear and
thus gets colored with fear. There is even a fear of life
itself, as shown by the song,'''Fraid of living and 'fraid
of dying." In other words, this energy field has now
contaminated everything. Ifwe are the source of that energy field, then all
our experience comes into the field of fear, and every
thing in our lives can become fearful. The future is
fearful: old age, getting older, what is going to happen
to the body, what is going to happen to my finances,
what is going to happen to my relationships, what is
going to happen to my family, what is going to hap
pen to my bank account, what is going to happen to
my country, and what is going to happen to the
world? People who develop global fear will tell you about
their fear of nuclear annihilation, or intergalactic
wars, or meteors, or cataclysmic 'end times'. The
expansion of the fear does not change the fact that it
is still just fear. Glamorizing it and making it sound
dramatic does not change that it is just fear. The fears
of intergalactic war, human demolition, and the expi
ration of the human race are no different from the 270 HEALING AND RECOVERY
child's fear of the dark or his fear that a dog might
bite him. Experientially, fear is always just the same
emotion. Characteristic of all of this is the energy field
calledFear.Fear of'what'is reallyimmaterial. We have
to learn to look away from the thoughts and look
instead at the feeling. We actually have to look below
the feeling to the energy field out of which the feel
ing is originating and then learn how to handle this
energyfield.Whenwe do this,we lose ourfear offear,
and as that happens, we begin to learn how to handle
fear directly. It is an extremely simple thing to handle
once we are familiar with some rather easy tech
niques. The world pretty much runs people with fear
because their personal lives are also predominantly
run by fear. But once we have learned a way to avoid
getting cornered by fear, we begin to transcend the
world as well as transcend being a victim because the
world can threaten us only by fear. Ifthey cut off our
bank account, conduct an audit, run· away from us,
leave us, or fife us, the gun at our head is always the
same gun-the gun of fear. There can be the fear of
losing a part of the body-there is no end to the num
ber of fears, but there is an end to fearfulness and of
being a victim of fear. We will learn how to lose our fear of fear, how to
enjoy the process, and how to really start feeling good
about ourselves when we realize that we are no
longer the victim, the worm that is at the effect ofthis
all-pervasive fearfulness. The problem is not fear itself
but the energy field of fearfulness. We can begin to WORRY, FEAR, AND ANXIETY 271
see that we are in control of it because we are the
source of it. We start with admitting the truth that "I
am the source of my fearfulness." We know that in a
different mood, a fearful thing is no longer fearful. We
might say about the thing we fear, "I'm afraid of that,"
but when we are accompanied by someone else, or in
a different mood, such as a humorous one, and we are
having a good time laughing, then the thing no longer
engenders fear, so the source of fear is not out in
the world. There is no way of overcoming one's fear of the
world because there is no way the world can be con
trolled to end one's fears, nor can fears be overcome
by changing society, by changing the law, or by
changing the rules.The source of fearfulness is with
in oneself. Picture a big event.There are two aspects-one is
the event itself, and the second is how we feel about
it. Having more police at the event might make us
feel better, but, in fact, where are the police going to
be while our apartment is being robbed? At the other
end of town, naturally. Therefore, our handling of
fear is really up to ourself. It comes out of our will
ingness to own that we are the source of that fear,
which is occurring within our own consciousness. Therefore, we want to address it where it is actually
being experienced. Most people experience fear in a somewhat phys
ical way, so the first thing to do about a fearful expe
rience is eliminate paying any attention to thought. A
fearful feeling will engender literally millions of
thoughts. There is no end to fearful thoughts because 272 HEALING AND RECOVERY
they are coming out of the energy field of fear itself,
which generates an endless series of thoughts. Clinically speaking, handling the specific thoughts
themselves has a limited value, and the fearfulness
merely generates more thoughts later on, so we want
to use a technique that will handle fear itself. A person might just picture something fearful in
their life, or something fearful that they expect to
happen or has happened, or they can just fantasize a
fearful experience, such as being tied to the railroad
track with a locomotive bearing down on them. As
they look at what is being experienced, they will see
when they look past the thought, it is being experi
enced first in the body. They may notice a tenseness
in the stomach muscles, a queasy feeling in the stom
ach, shakiness in the arms and legs, or a dryness in the
mouth. Some people have intestinal cramps or diffi
culty breathing. Whatever it is, they look within them
selves to see what is actually being experienced. Radical truth means what is being experienced, not
what one is actually thinking about it or the concepts
that one is projecting onto the experience; it is not
the labeling of it but what one is literally experienc
ing within oneself. The technique is to let go of resisting the experi
encing of what is literally being experienced. Let go
of resisting the dryness of the mouth. Let it be there
and welcome it. Let go of resisting the flip-flop feeling
in the stomach and the trembling in the arms and
legs. When we do this, we are focused away from
thought about what is being experienced. We fully let
go and surrender being those sensations. The letting WORRY, FEAR, AND ANXIETY 273
go is like being the willow tree in the wind. The ancient wisdom ofTaoism states that the oak
tree, which resists the wind, is susceptible to break
ing, and the willow tree, which bends with the wind,
survives. Like the willow tree, we bend with the
incoming experience. We let it be, blend with it, and
welcome it. We say, "Let's have more of it." As we do
that, we will discover, much to our surprise, that there
is a limited amount of that sensation. It is as though
the amount offear we have is limited in quantity. How
can this be? It is as though this fear is like a pressure
tank that contains all the suppressed fear we have had
throughout our lifetime, starting in our childhood. There is all the fear that we could not allow ourselves
to experience or express, or were not allowed to
express. We were not allowed to have that emotion. For example, a man in military service was not
allowed to express the fearfulness because it was
thought to be unmanly or showed cowardice, so the
fear got suppressed, repressed, and pushed down out
of awareness. Fears we were not aware of have come up by the
thousands in our lifetime. The fear comes up and we
unwittingly brace our back. The fear is just pushed
out of awareness, or we drum our fmgers on the desk. The fear is so


 they are liver-
toxic, but doctors feel impelled to use them to prevent heart attacks and strokes. By being able
to do without statins, patients on the Gerson program avoid yet another source of toxicity. Any
remaining cholesterol surplus is easily eliminated by the niacin (vitamin B-3), which is an integral
part of the Gerson protocol. Of course smoking, another source of elevated cholesterol, is strictly
banned on the therapy. The Gerson treatment not only helps to clear arteries of plaque, (which medicine claims
cannot be done), thus avoiding strokes or more serious second heart attacks. It is also a natural
method of prevention, even in people who may have a genetic predisposition to heart disease, and
has also helped patients, who have already suffered a heart attack or stroke, to recover and even
restore some lost functions. Case History: In December 1993, the 87-year-old father of recovered Gerson patient M.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>

child’s developing organism is less able to deal with the many complications of gross overweight
than that of an adult. Several British researchers have stated that for the first time in human history
it will be normal for parents to outlive their offspring. A hugely successful recent movie produced by Morgan Spurlock, “Super Size Me,” unveiled
the truth about the destructive effects of fast food. Spurlock, a healthy 33-year-old man undertook Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007. All rights reserved.

www.thegersonway.comto eat all his meals at McDonald’s for 30 days, to find out what this exclusive diet would do to
him. Throughout the experiment he was regularly examined by gastro-enterologist Dr. Daryl
Isaacs, who declared that Spurlock was “an extremely healthy person who got very sick eating
this McDonald’s diet.” At one stage the doctor even told Morgan Spurlock that his liver had turned
into pat é and asked him to stop his experiment. But the moviemaker persisted. At the end of the
month he reported, “I got desperately ill. My face was splotchy and I had this huge gut. { He gained
25 pounds in 30 days.} My knees started to hurt from the extra weight coming on so quickly. It
was amazing and frightening.” On top of it all, his liver became toxic, his cholesterol shot up from
a low 165 to 230, his libido flagged and he suffered from headaches and depression. Within a few
days of beginning his ‘drive-through diet,’ Spurlock was vomiting out the window of his car, and
doctors who examined him were shocked by how rapidly his entire body deteriorated. Mothers cannot be solely blamed for their children’s faulty nutrition and inactivity. Very few
mothers receive any nutritional guidance from their pediatrician. The problem is that he doesn’t
know much about nutrition, either. All he has learned in medical school boils down to the usual
“protein, carbohydrates and fats” doctrine. And so he is unable to recognize the harm done by
the children’s favorite foods; for instance, that the animal products used in fast foods are heat-
damaged, poorly assimilated, too high in cholesterol and salt, but deficient in true nutrients—
vitamins, minerals and enzymes. As a result they don’t satisfy hunger, and so a vicious circle
is created, leading to overfed but undernourished children. If a child asks for more food after a
complete meal, the mother’s instinctive reaction is to dish out an extra portion; she doesn’t realize
that no additional amount of food will make up for the missing essential nutrients. The average American diet leaves children not only hungry but also with low energy, so they
spend a lot of their free time lounging around, doing nothing. Yet they would also like to play, win
at games, run, and eventually ‘show off to the girls.’ To make up for their low energy, they start
to ‘look for something,’ and unfortunately find it, too. What they find are cola drinks containing
caffeine and sugar stimulants, cigarettes full of toxic substances, and eventually alcohol and street
drugs, giving a brief ‘high’ and leading to addiction. The same vicious circle affects adults, too. Since the conventional American diet is devoid
of live nutrients, the body remains unsatisfied and craves more—not quantity but quality, proper
nutrition that it needs to function smoothly and well. Sadly, people don’t know or understand this,
and so they try to satisfy their craving with rich desserts, ice cream, cakes and cookies. These
don’t satisfy, either, but they do create weight gain, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and
eventually diabetes and worse. Obesity is a morbid condition indeed, and can only be overcome
by changing to a junk-free, nutrient-rich wholesome diet. One doesn’t need a degree in nutrition to know that all kinds of sugar are fattening, and that
the modern Western diet with its vast range of convenience foods is over-rich in sugar. However,
when it comes to official policy concerning nutrition, such basic facts are often swept aside for Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007. All rights reserved.

www.thegersonway.comcommercial reasons, which frequently clash with the interests of public health. One such recent
clash concerned the upper safe limit of sugar added to food, as recommended by the WHO (World
Health Organization). Professor Colin Campbell reported on this event in his book, The China
Study,  and with his permission we quote his account:
“The recommendation on added sugar is as outrageous as the one for protein. When this FNB
(Food and Nutrition Board) report was being released, an expert panel put together by the WHO
(World Health Organization) and the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) was completing
a new report on diet, nutrition and the prevention of chronic diseases. Professor Philip James
was a member of this panel and a panel spokesperson on the added sugar recommendation. Early
rumors of the report’s findings indicated that the WHO/FAO was on the verge of recommending
an upper safe limit of 10% for added sugar, far lower than the 25% established by the American
FNB group. “Politics, however, had early entered the discussion, as it had done in earlier reports on added
sugars. According to a news release from the director-general’s office at the WHO, the US-based
Sugar Association and the World Sugar Research Organization, who ‘represent the interests of the
sugar growers and refiners, had mounted a strong lobbying campaign in an attempt to discredit
the WHO report and suppress its release.’ According to The Guardian newspaper of London,
the US sugar industry was threatening to ‘bring the WHO to its knees’ unless it abandoned these
guidelines on added sugar. WHO people were describing the threat as ‘tantamount to blackmail.’
The US-based group even publicly threatened to lobby the US Congress to reduce the $406
million US funding of the WHO if it persisted in keeping the upper limit so low at 10%. There
were reports that the Bush administration was inclined to side with the sugar industry. “So, for added sugars, we now have two different upper ‘safe’ limits: a 10% limit for the
international community and a 25% limit for the US,” is Professor Campbell’s wry conclusion. Clearly, despite official claims, the obesity epidemic hitting the American people is not solely the
result of insufficient exercise!”
Osteoporosis
Also known as ‘brittle bones,’ this progressive loss of bone mass is unfortunately becoming
very common. It causes fractures or breaks at the slightest impact, such as a fall or other
accident. Fractures are immensely painful and heal slowly—or, in old people, not at all. A serious
break, necessitating weeks of bed rest, can lead to infected bedsores and other, potentially fatal
complications. More women than men suffer from osteoporosis, so it is assumed to be caused by ageing, post-
menopausal loss of the female sex hormone estrogen, lack of exercise, and smoking. However, we
have seen a 28-year-old man suffering from this condition! The conventional medical treatment
prescribes female hormones, calcium, Vitamin D, and regular exercise. The best that these can Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007. All rights reserved.

which is
mostly acidic, and accumulates in the body) comes from foods, air, body-
hygiene products, household products, building materials … the list goes on
and on. Today, most of the foods people eat and the liquids they drink are
acidic, mucus-forming, energy-robbing and protein-toxic. The refined
starches we eat act like glue in the tissues of our body, causing plaque to
build up, as we discussed earlier. This toxicity, being acidic, can inflame and
congest tissue to the point of causing tissue death. This toxicity and mucus is stored in all tissues, but noticed more in your
sinuses, throat, thyroid, lungs, muscles, liver, kidneys and skin. This is why
all these areas are affected when you have cold and flu-like symptoms. The
body tries to “purge” itself of these toxins, or as many of them as it can,
through natural processes called “disease.” Many “diseases” are nothing more
than elimination efforts by the body to purge itself of toxins, and/or dying or
dead cells. As previously stated, toxicity builds up intra-cellularly and interstitially
(around cells) in the vascular system, in the organs and glands, in the bowels,
and in the cavities of our body. Combine this toxicity with an over-acid diet
and you get inflammation, ulceration, tumors and eventually cellular death
(degeneration). These toxins and mucus create obstruction, blocking blood
and lymph flow to and from cells. This greatly reduces a cell’s ability to
function and stay healthy. Colds, flu, lymphatic conditions, lung conditions, gastrointestinal
problems, infections, to name a few of many conditions, are all symptoms of
this accumulation of toxicity in the body. Your immune system and/orparasites will naturally act upon this toxicity. Yet this natural response by
your immune system to this toxicity and, of course, to the parasites who feed
upon this toxicity, is oftentimes mistakenly called an autoimmune disorder. Parasites and immune responses are always secondary to the cause; they are
side effects of the symptom. THIRD ROOT: OVERACIDITY—ACIDOSIS

The body digests, absorbs, utilizes, reproduces, and eliminates in the presence
of fluids. These fluids include digestive juices, blood, extra- and intra-cellular
fluids, lymphatic fluids and urine. To fully understand the effects that food
and toxins have within your body, however, you first have to understand
opposites. Creation exists because of the dynamic interplay of opposites, without
which everything would be the same. (Of course, because God is One, the
closer to God you get, the more the opposites merge.) The interplay between
opposites creates movement, activity, shapes, sizes, colors, temperatures. As
complicated as chemistry is, it rests upon two pillars or opposites: hot and
cold, or yin and yang, the names for the two opposing dynamics within
Chinese philosophy and medicine. Hot is called acid and cold is alkaline. Acids initiate change and alkalis balance. This is the basis of all matter. The elements which comprise matter are either acid or alkaline in nature. Acid-forming elements include nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur. Oxygen,
calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium are alkaline elements. Many of
the alkaline elements are known as electrolytes because of their ability to
carry and deliver electrical charges. Alkaline elements have oxygen and
carbon dominating the hydrogen, whereas acids have nitrogen and hydrogen
dominating. To maintain health and vitality, all of your body’s fluids should be
alkaline, except for the stomach’s gastric juices, hydrochloric acid and pepsin,
which are acidic for initial protein breakdown. The acid or alkaline
measurement in your body is classified in what is called pH factors. The pH
means “potential of hydrogen.” The pH scale is 0 through 14—with 0 being
the most acidic, 7 being neutral, and 14 the most alkaline. Since each number
on the scale represents a logarithm, there is a 10-fold difference between each
number. This can be very significant when you understand that the pH of the
blood should be 7.4, or slightly alkaline. Coma and death can take placewhen the hydrogen atoms in the blood lower (by adding hydrogen atoms) the
pH to 6.95. The opposite can also be true. Convulsions and spasms can occur
when the pH becomes too alkaline (less hydrogen atoms), which is rare. It is
important to note that most convulsions and spasms are caused by mineral
utilization problems. All the food that humans eat can be divided into the above two
categories: they are either acid-forming or alkaline-forming. This depends
upon the ash left after their digestion, and upon the food’s dominating
inorganic minerals, which affect the pH of our body’s fluids. Acid foods
leave more phosphorus, iron and sulfur compounds, which push out alkaline
minerals like calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium. Acids crystallize,
thus irritating and inflaming tissues. These crystals are deposited throughout
the body causing inflammation, irritation and stimulation or agitation. Uric
acid, for example, is a by-product of meat metabolism and/or fungal growth
in the body. Uric acid buildup causes gout and other inflammatory conditions
throughout the body. There are many other acids formed during food digestion. These include
sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, butyric acid, lactic acid, acetic acid and
pyroracemic acid, to name a few. These acids, if not converted to salts by
electrolytes, will cause damage to tissue. The more acidic your body
becomes, the more damage you create within it. Men and women today eat mainly acid-forming foods, e.g., meats,
grains, pasteurized dairy products, eggs and cooked tomatoes. As acidity is
hot, these acids and compounds cause inflammation in tissues. Inflammation
causes cellular weakness and an inability of the cell to transport nutrients
across its membrane wall via cellular respiration, eventually leading to cellular
death. As previously stated, the only acid chamber in homo sapiens is the
stomach, where protein digestion begins. Note: Immediately after the stomach
contents move into the small intestines, bile and sodium bicarbonate are
secreted to alkalize this mixture now called chyme. The rest of digestion is
alkaline. The accumulation of acids and toxic foreign proteins in tissues causes an
immune response called inflammation. This inflammation is then diagnosed
as an “itis” of some sort, e.g., gastritis, colitis, cystitis, nephritis, bursitis, and
arthritis. These are not diseases, but inflammatory responses to acidosis. This
is why the treatment of these conditions with more acid-forming drugs orsteroids is ludicrous and will eventually lead to further degeneration of your
tissues. It makes much better sense to alkalize and detoxify, that is, remove
the acids and foreign proteins that are causing the problem in the first place. CNN recently reported that researchers at various universities have proven
that the genetic pattern of cells (DNA and chromosomes) can and is being
altered by acidosis, which weakens a cell, causing many changes in its DNA
and chromosome structure. ABOUT CONSCIOUSNESS AND DISEASE

Cells respond to states of consciousness just as we do. In other words, if
someone walks up
to you angry, you can get angry; if you hang around sick
people, you can get sick. Everything
is
 energy and everything
gives off
energy. There are unlimited levels to energy. From a spiritual perspective, anger
is a lower level of energy whereas love is a high level of energy. In spiritual
circles we call energy “consciousness” or “awareness.” God, or “total
awareness,” has been compared to a large mirror, while creation is thought of
as that mirror divided up into unlimited pieces, or various states of awareness
or consciousness. As I understand it, all life forms are merely pieces of this
mirror expressing themselves in various individual states of consciousness or
awareness. With birth into creation, we start out basically unconscious or
unaware, and become gradually more conscious in response to life around us. As a computer that is being set up with more software, or programmed with
more data, is therefore able to perform more functions, so each individual
piece of the “mirror of creation” will expand its ability to express itself the
more it awakens to its true nature. Since we humans are pieces of this mirror,
we act in the same way—that is, the more we experience, the more we
awaken or grow in consciousness. While it is very difficult to express these things in words, if you look
within yourself and at nature you can appreciate that all things are reflections
of the same essence; that is, all are a reflection in some way of God and all of
God’s creation. Your cells are no different. They possess consciousness. They are subject to the laws of cause and effect, just like you are. What you
put in, you get out. Your cells’ DNA and chromosomes carry memory
patterns far beyond those of simple genetics. They also include the traces of
the day-to-day “experiences” that the cell goes through, much as yourmemory records your daily experience. Viruses are proteins that affect the consciousness or life of a cell. They
weaken a cell, setting it up for an immune response. As stated earlier, nature

ished irretrievably, and all that remains of it is a sort
of wake  or track  in the present,  which  we call
memory. While you can make a guess as to what ex-
pericnce is coming nexc, in actual  fact you do not
know. Anything might  happcn. But the cxpcrience
which is going on now is, as ir were, a newborn in -
fant which vanishes be(ore it can even begin to gct
older. While you are watching this present experience,
are you aware of someone watching it? Can you 6nd,
in addition to thc cxpcrience itsclf, an expericncer? Can you, at the same time,  read this scntence and
think  about  yoursclf  reading  it? You will find  that,  to
think about yourself reading it, you muse for a brief
second stop reading. The first experience is reading. The second experiencc is the thought, "I  am read -
ing." Can you find any thinker, who is thinking thc
thought, "I am reading?" ln othcr words, when pres -
ent cxpcriencc  is the  thought,  "l am rcading," can
you think  about  yoursclf  thinking  this thought? Once again,  you muse stop  thinking just,  "I am
reading." You pass to a third expcrience,,vhich is the
thought, "l  am thinking that  I am reading." Do not
lct thc rapidity with which Ihcsc thoughts can change
deceivc you in1.o tite fccling that you think thcm ali
at once. But what has happened? Never al any time wcre
you able  to separate  yourself  from  your  present
thought,  or your  present  cxperience. The  first  pres -
83 TJIE  WISDOM  OF INSEClJRITY
ent experience was reading. When you lried to
think  about yourself reading, the experience
changed, ancl  the next present experience was
the thought "l am  reading." You could not
separate yourself from this  experience without
passing on to another. lt was  "ring around 1.he
rosy." When you were thinking, "I am reading this
sentence" you were not reading it. In  other
words, in each present experience you were
only aware of that experience. You were never
awarc  of bcing aware. You werc ncver able to
separatc the  thinkcr from  thc thought,  the
knower  from  the known. All you ever found was a
new thought, a new  experience. To be aware, then, is to be aware of thoughts,
feel- ings, sensations, desires, and ali other forms
of ex - perience. Nevcr at any time are you aware
oE any- thing which is not cxpcrience, nota
thought or feel - ing, but instead an experiencer,
thinker, or feelcr. lf this is so, what makes us
think that any such thing  exists? We might  say,  for cxample,  that  the 'T' who  is
the
thinker is this physical body and brain. llut this
body  is in no way separate from its thoughts and
scnsa - tions. Whcn you have a sensation, say, of
touch,  that sensation is pan of your body. While
that sensation  is going on, you cannot move the
body away from it  any more than you can walk
away from a headache  or from your own feet. So
long as it is present, that  sensation  is your  body
and is you. You  can removc  ON BEING  AWARE
the body from an uncomfortable chair, but you
can- not move  it from  the sensation  of a chair. The nolion  of a separate  thinker,  of an "l" dis-
tinct from the experience, comes from mcmory
and from the rapidity with which thought changcs. lt is  like whírling  a burning stick to give the
illusion of a  continuous circle of ti.re. If you
imagine that memory  is a direcc knowledge of che
pase rather chan a present  experience, you get the
illusion of knowing the past  and the prescnt at the
same time. This suggests t hat there is something
in you dislinct from both the past  and che present
experiences. You  reason,  "I know  chis present
experience, and it is different from that  past
experience. If 1 can compare the two, and notice
that experience  has changed,  I muse  be something
constant  and apart." But,  as a matter  of fact,  you cannot  compare  this
present experience with a pase experience. You
can only compare it with a memory of the past,
which is a  parl of lhe presenl experience. When you
see clearly  chat memory is a form of present
experience,  it will  be obvious that trying to
separate yourself from this  experience  is as
impossible as trying to make your  teeth  bite
themselves. There  is simply  experience. There is
not something or someone experiencing ex -
perience! You do not fccl feelings, think thoughts,
or sense sensations any more than you hear
hearing, see  sight,  or smell smelling. "I feel fine"
means  that a fine feeling  is present. It does  not
mean  that  there  is
85 THE  WISDOM  OF INSECURITY
one thing called an  "I" and another separate  thing
called a feeling,  so that  when  you bring  them  to-
gether this 'T' feels  the fine feeling. There  are no
fcelings but present feelings, and whatever feeling
is prescnt is "I.'' No onc  ever found an 'T' apart
from  sorne present experience, or sorne
experience apart  from an "I"-which is only to say
that the two are the  same  thing. As a mere  philosophical  argument  this is a waste
of
time. We are not trying to have an ''intellectual
dis- cussion." We are being awarc of the Cace that
any separate  'T' who  thinks  thoughts  and
experiences  expcricnce  is an  illusion. To
undcrstand  this is  to realize that life is entirely
momentary, that there is  neither permanence nor
security,  and that  there  is no 'T' which  can be
prote  ted. There  is a Chinese  story  o[ onc who  came  to a
great sagc, saying, ·•¡ havc no peace of mind. Please  pacify  my mind." The sage  answered,
"Bring  out your mind (your T) bcfore me, and I
will pacify it." ''These many years,"  he replied,  "I
have sought my  mind, but I cannot find it." "There," concluded the sage,  "it is pacified!" The real rcason why human life can be so
utterly  exasperating and frustrating is not beca  use
therc are  faces  called  dcath,  pain,  fear,  or
hunger. The mad -
ness of the thing is that when such facts are
present,  we circle, buzz, writhe, and whirl,  trying
to get  the "I" out of the experience. We pretend
thac  we are
86 ON BEING  AWARE
amoebas, and try to protect ourselves from life by
splitting in  nvo. Sanily, wholeness, and  integration
líe in the realization that wc are not clividcd, that
man and his presem cxpcricncc are onc, and that no
separa  te "l" or mind  can  be  found. While the notion that I am scparate from my ex-
perience  remains,  there  is confusion  and turmoil. Because of this, therc is ncither awarencss nor under -
standing oE experience, and thus no real possibility
of assimilating it. To understand this momcnt l must
not try to be divided from it; I must be aware of it
with  my whole  being. This,  like rcfraining  from
holding my breath for ten minutes,  is not something
I should do. In reality, it is che only thing 1 can do. Everything else is the insanity of attempting the im -
possible. To understand music, you must listen to it. But so

Diets Don't Work. by Raymond Francis
I f you are more than five pounds over your normal weight, you need to read my book Never Be
Fat Again. A catastrophic epidemic of overweight disease is sweeping America. More than two-
thirds of all Americans are overweight. This is not a cosmetic problem— it is a serious, chronic
and degenerative disease. Even a few extra pound s will accelerate aging, increase susceptibility
to cancer and other diseases, increase disability  and shorten life. Over weight is not a benign
disease, and no one should be or needs to be fat. Lean people live longer, have less disease, less
disability, more energy, and a higher quality of life. While millions spend billions trying to lose weight, this epidemic is getting worse every year. More than one-third of our children are overweigh t. Because of this, life expectancy is expected
to turn down, after two h undred years of increases. When I looked at this problem, I wondered why, af ter all those diets and all that money, time,
effort, diet books, diet programs,  gimmicks, magic pills and exercise machines overweight is still
increasing. I soon found out. Diets don’t work —so don’t go on a diet! Diets are not only
ineffective; they are dangerous, even deadly. Be sides that, who wants to count calories, weigh
out portions, be deprived, eat unnatu rally, and feel aggravated and starved? Perhaps it would be
worth it if it worked, but it doesn’t, because mo st diets are scientific ally and nutritionally
unsound. Their goal is weight loss NOW at any pr ice. They aim at lo sing weight, which is
merely a symptom of this disease. You ca nnot solve problems by attacking symptoms. Almost anyone can lose 5 to 10 percent of their weight on any number of diets. The weight may
go away for a while, but the vast majority of pe ople gain everything back and more, packing on
extra pounds. Studies show that overweight people who diet gain  more weight than those who
don’t. Yet at any point in time, one in three Amer icans is on a diet. It should be obvious that a
slim body and vibrant health are not the usual results of dieti ng. Many of these people end up
doing dangerous yo-yo dieting—cycles of gaining and losing weight— which actually doubles
the risk of dying from heart disease, damages i mmunity and raises the risk of premature death
from all causes. It is better to do nothing than go on a diet —the benefits of dieting are too small
and the risks too big. The reason I wrote my book Never Be Fat Again  was to help overweight  people lose weight
safely and permanently. But you don’t do that wi th a diet; you do it w ith a health-enhancing
lifestyle that includes nutritious  food, avoiding toxins and regu lar physical activity. Focusing on
weight loss alone is the wrong thing to do, because  overweight is a disease. Fat is a symptom;
you cannot cure a disease by attacking symptoms. Permanent weight loss is possible only by
regaining health. Always remember there is only one disease— malfunctioning cells—and only two causes of
disease— deficiency and toxicity. Overweight di sease is caused by deficien cy and toxicity; it is
reversed by addressing these two causes. So how do deficiency and toxic ity cause overweight? When the body is deficient in nut rients, the appetite is turned on in  order to get what is needed. Nutrient deficiency stimulates appetite, causes hunger and cravings and si gnals the body to store
fat. The problem is our processed-food diets do not  contain the required nut rients. So the appetite
stays on and we eat more empty calories. The Sta ndard American Diet is deficient in nutrients
while also being loaded with more calories th an we can use. Whenever we consume more
calories than necessary to maintain ou r current weight, we will store fat. Studies have found that calcium deficiency can tu rn on fat-storing genes, while adequate calcium
will speed fat burning. Similarly, a deficiency of  omega-3 fatty acids will activate fat-storing
genes, while adequate omega-3s will turn th em off and speed up fat burning. So guess what? Most Americans are deficient in both calcium an d omega-3s. The average American gets only a
fraction of the nutrition they requ ire for optimal health. This is why we are operating at far below
our biological potential,  resulting in our epidemic of ch ronic disease and overweight. These
deficiencies must be corrected if  you want to lose weight. As l ong as the body is not getting the
nutrition it needs, you will crave food even though you have just loaded up on high calorie junk
food. As you seek to lose weight by consuming fewer calories and increasing ex ercise, you must make
sure the calories you do consume are loaded w ith nutrition. You cannot simply eat smaller
amounts of nutritionally wo rthless foods. This means you need to  eat organic, fresh, raw fruits
and vegetables, sprouts, beans and whole grai ns—foods that contain th e highest amount of
nutrients and fiber per calorie. B ecause these real foods are both nutrient-rich and fiber-rich, they
will make you feel fuller. This satisfies hunger,  shuts off the appetite, and prevents the
consumption of too many calories. Empty-calorie, nutrient-poor, fiber-less, make believe foods
such as sugar, white flour and most pr ocessed and fast foods  are not options. Supplements are essential. They help to solve th e problem of cellular deficiency, and they also
support the body’s detoxification sy stem. Here is a list of the supplements I recommend that
work synergistically to provide nutrition, mi nimize free-radical damage and help the body
detoxify: The Beyond Health Comprehensive Kit forms the basis of this program. I suggest adding the following with Beyond Health-approved products: Acetyl L-Carnitine, Caroplete,
Choline Citrate, Coconut Oil,  Cod liver Oil, CoQ10, Garlic, Glucose Regulation Guard, Beyond
Health Magnesium Formula, Regular ity Guard, Selenium and Thiodox. Call 800-250-3063  for
help with this program. Toxins in our food and environment play a surp risingly important role  in our overweight
epidemic by impairing the body’s appetite and fat storage controls. Common food additives such
as MSG and aspartame, can make us feel hungr y even when we do not need food. Fat burning
can be turned off and fat storage turned on. Chemicals used in common plastics such as pht halates and bisphenyl-A, as well as PCBs and
solvents can cause weight gain. Animals exposed to pesticides can expe rience huge weight gains without any increase in caloric intake. Domesticated animals are fed growth promoters to fatten
them up, but when you eat their meat you ingest


 quantities and the form in which they occur in whole plant
foods. Eating a highly mineralized form of poison makes no logical sense whats oever. Salt eaters who cease the practice can often take years to expel all of  the retained salt from their bodies. But take heart, as the
bulk of salt (and cravings) diminish significantly within just a f ew short weeks of total abstinence. I cannot overemphasize the
importance of making the commitment to wean yourself from this ubiquitou s poison. Can I use vinegar in my salad dressing? All forms of vinegar, including apple cider and balsamic, are highly toxi c to the human body. Vinegar is made by diluting one
part acetic acid (a common poison found in any chemistry laboratory … in  a bottle with a skull and crossbones) with 19 parts
water. Vinegar excessively stimulates the thyroid gland, leading to hyper thyroidism and eventually hypothyroidism and concomitant
health issues such as endocrine disorders, calcium metabolic disorders, metabolic rate disorders, fat metabolism problems, body-
weight issues, lethargy, headaches, and the classic bulging of the e yes. This stimulation also accelerates the aging process. The body pulls phosphorus from the adrenal glands to negate the effects of ac etic acid in the system. Depleted phosphorus
results in impaired function of the adrenal glands and thus, again, the  entire endocrine system. The outcome of all this can include
body odor, pains in the heart, rapid pulse, increased mucus production, chronic fat igue, and headaches. Repetitive use of vinegar
will also result in hardening of the liver. Vinegar should not be cons idered “food.”

Is it okay to eat frozen produce? Some damage to living foods occurs when they are frozen. Freezing can ex pand and burst cell walls, and the resulting
oxidation diminishes the nutritional value of the food. However, nuts and s eeds, which are designed to survive through cold winters,
are less damaged by being frozen. Generally, the lower the water and the  higher the fat content of a whole, fresh food, the better it
will take to freezing. As for fruits and vegetables, the practice of freezing should be minimi zed but not necessarily eliminated, as it is one of the
least-damaging ways to preserve foods (especially when a chest free zer is used instead of the frost-free variety). One advantage of
freezing food relative to other forms of preservation is that freezing  introduces no known toxins. You should be aware that eating frozen and ice-cold foods damages the essen tial bacterial colonies that live in your gut and
may be harmful to the bacteria that produce vitamin B 12. Once again, we see that eating foods as we find them in nature proves to
be the most healthful … it is true every time. Are dehydrated foods OK to eat? Dehydrated foods are not whole foods; they have had their water removed. Unfor tunately, we have not been taught to
recognize the vital value of water as it comes packaged in fresh plant foods. Fruits and vegetables are nature’s most pristine water
filters, and the water we cook and dehydrate out of them can never be adequate ly replaced. Drinking water, no matter how purified,
alkalized, or “structured,” just doesn’t compare. Dehydrated foods can never be as nutritious as the whole, fresh foods they s tarted as. Nutrient damage has been shown to
occur, even if the water is replaced. The use of dehydrates is a personal de cision, but dried foods should always be considered at
best a compromise, second in quality to whole, fresh, ripe, raw, organic fruits  and vegetables. Current research indicates that vitamin B 12  changes to an analog and unusable form where it is found in dehydrated foods. This appears to be true, by the way, for spirulina, chlorella, algaes, and othe r pills and powders made from ocean plants. What about spices and condiments? In Natural Hygiene, there is a saying, “If you can’t make a meal of i t, it likely is not people food.” When people hear this
statement, they often view it as draconian and idealistic, for it rule s out the consumption of virtually all spices, seasonings, and
condiments. Yet, think about it: no creatures in nature season their f oods, nor even generally combine more than one food in a meal
(at least not for purposes of gustatory pleasure). Y es, humans are undoubtedly different than the “lower” animals. W e h ave the dexterity and the equipment to mix up grand
concoctions (“combo-a-bombs,” as R.C. Dini so aptly dubbed them), and we have  the ingenuity to create gloriously seasoned taste
treats. But I promise you, our digestive systems have not kept up with  our creativity—not by a long shot. In fact, they are virtually
identical to those of our ancient ancestors, as well as those of modern-day  frugivorous anthropoid primates. By design, we are
meant to eat one whole plant food at a time, unadorned, until we have made a mea l of it. Herbs and spices like garlic, onion, curry, cumin, ginger, cayenne, chili  powder, and oregano contain alkaloids and other toxic
chemicals. These seasonings stimulate our taste buds and nerves wh ile delivering toxins to our nervous systems. Their use should be
avoided, or at least minimized. They act as irritants in the digestive  tract, often causing the body to produce mucus for protection. They also function to disguise the bland or noxious taste of cooked foods and seduce  us into consuming foods that would not attract
us on their own. Like salt, spices provide such an intense “flavor hit” that our tas te buds lose their ability to recognize the natural but more
subtle tastes of fruits and vegetables. The same holds true for the use  of all condiments, including mustard and ketchup. Can I drink coffee on the raw diet? The beans in coffee are roasted, making them no longer a raw food item. The fa tal dose of caffeine is 10 grams, the amount in
approximately 70 cups of coffee. Caffeine is considered such a powerful drug t hat just three cups of coffee supplies enough caffeine
to disqualify an athlete from competing in the Olympic games. Many people take one tenth of the lethal dose every day. I had one patient who dra nk over thirty cups of coffee per day. His
health was failing, but it was regained when he stopped this noxious habi t, which he did overnight. Moreover, caffeine decreases the amount of pepsin in your body. Pepsin is use d in the digestion of protein. Ironically, many
coffee drinkers on the standard American diet criticize the raw diet  because they believe they would not receive “enough” protein every day, while their daily intake of coffee impedes their absorption of th e very protein they claim they need. Caffeine is also known to deplete the body of water, calcium, potassium, manga nese, and the vitamin B complex. Caffeine is
just one of many toxic substances that can be found in coffee. Should I continue taking my medications? The medical profession and its supporting industry, the medico pharmaceut ical cartel, operate from the theory that thousands
of separate illnesses exist whose symptoms can be treated or suppressed by  ingesting synthetic chemical compounds. The Natural
Hygiene approach is entirely different. We recognize that genetically inherited abnormalities exist, us ually arising from generations of poor dietary and lifestyle
choices, and that very little can be done about these. Otherwise, however, we propose that there is only one illness: toxemia. This is
a condition of unclean blood and tissues, caused primarily by improper diet and li festyle. Unchecked, toxemia and its attendant
enervation (nervous exhaustion) get progressively worse over the y ears, leading to all manner of symptoms. People find this very difficult to comprehend, but we must remember that t he symptoms are not the disease. Rather, symptoms
are actually the body’s methods of coping with toxemia. In order to “cur e” a disease condition, such as diabetes, cancer, or
cardiovascular disease, one must eliminate the underlying toxemia  of which the “disease” is only a manifestation. As you begin to eat a healthy 80/10/10  raw diet, you will no longer overload your body on a daily basis with toxic residue
from food. Your body will begin to clean your blood, tissues, and organs of their toxic ity, and the medical condition(s) for which you
are taking the pharmaceutical medicine(s) will fade away. Check wi th your doctor as your health improves, in time he or she will
likely agree that your need to medicate will become obsolete. Generally, the younger you are and the less time the body has spent in th e toxic state, the more rapidly it will clean itself. An
older person with more accompanying degeneration and accumulated toxici ty may take longer to cleanse and return to a healthy
state. Nevertheless, limited only by its vitality level, the body will  respond positively to cessation of the daily insult of cooked foods
and high-fat raw foods and to their replacement with whole, fresh, ripe, ra w fruits and vegetables. Still, food is only one part of
healthful living, and proper eating will never result in health in  and of itself. Pharmaceutical medicines are toxic substances that you introduce  into your system at your own peril


ates in the high 500s, which is akin to
perfection. Q: What is the risk of spiritual knowledge? A:  The downside of spiritual education is the buildup of the vanit y of “I
know” a nd the devaluation of people who are “not spiritual.” The ego takes
personal credit for spiritual co mprehension instead of realizing that the
capacity for understanding itself is a spiritual gift from God. Gratitude is the
antidote for pride. If one acqui res information and feels grateful about it,
then spiritual pride doesn’ t gain a strong foothold. Spiritual pride can work in two  directions, either by augmenting vanity
or, paradoxically, by your taking  the position that you’re worse than others. The position of I a m just a worth less worm  is just a vanity in rags instead of
robes. Q: Is ther e a momentum to spiritual work? A:  Once you cross the critical line of Courage (200), the rest becomes
accessible. The more you advance, the more you are likely  to further
advance; and the more you ad vance from wanting to advance, the more
advanced you get to be! Once you even begin to become interested in
spiritual matters, you’re already on your way and there’ s no ne ed to worry. Nobody would be interested in a book like this unless you were destined for
its truth,  any more than you’d be at diving lessons unless you we re planning
to go deep-sea  diving. The B uddha said that once you’ve heard of
Enlightenment, you’ll never be satisfied with anything less. T o merely have
heard of it already imprints your consciousness. THE MOST V ALUABLE QUALITIES AND A TTITUDES
FOR THE SPIRITUAL SEEKER
People often ask, “What are the qualities and attitudes needed to  advance
in consciousness?”Start wi th certainty and a feel ing of security instead of self-doubt or
timidity. Accept without reservation that you are worthy of the  quest, and
be resolved to to tally surrender to the truth about God. The facts that are to
be unreservedly  accepted are simple and very powerful. Surrendering to
them brings enormous spiritual advancement. 12 Spiritual Facts
1. The living proof of God’ s love a nd will for you is the gift of your own
existence. 2. There is  no need to compare yourself with others regarding “hol iness,”
merit, go odness, deservingness, sinlessness, and so forth. These are all
human notions, and God is not limited by human notions. 3. The concept of “the fear of God” is ignorance. God is peace an d love
and nothing else. 4. The depiction of God as a “judge” is a delusion of the ego that arises
as a  projection of guilt from th e punishments of childhood. Realize
that God is not a parent. 5. Christ’ s teaching was simply to avoid the negativity (calibrated levels
below 200), and the goal of his teaching was for his followers to  reach
Unconditional L ove (cal. 540). He knew that once the le vel of
Unconditional Love was reache d, the soul’ s destiny after death was
certain and the soul was safe. T his is essentially the same conclusion
taught by the world’ s great religions, such as Pure Land Buddhism. 6. Salvation and Enlightenment are somewhat dif ferent goals. Sa lvation
requires purification of the ego; Enlightenment requires its total
dissolution. The goal of Enlightenment is more demanding and radical. 7. It is not a personal “you” who is seeking Enlightenment but an
impersonal quality of consciousness that is the motivator. Spiritual
inspiration and dedication carry forth the work. 8. Comfort replace s insecurity when you realize that the most important
goal has  already  been accomplished. That goal is to be on the road of
spiritual dedicat ion. Spiritual development is not an accompli shmentbut a way of lif e. It is an orientation that brings its own rewards, and
what is important is the direction of your motives. 9. Every step forward benefits everyone. Y our spiritual dedication and
work is a gift to life and the love of all humankind. 10. There is  no timetable or pres cribed route to God. Although each
person’ s route is unique, the terrain to be covered is relatively co mmon
to all. Details dif fer based on past karma. 11. Intense prayer augments dedic ation and inspiration and facilitates
progress. 12. The Grace of G od is available to all. The strength of the ego can be
quite formidable, and without the assistance of the power of higher
spiritual beings,  it cannot of itself be transcended. Fortunately, the
power of the co nsciousness of every great teacher or avatar who has
ever lived still remains. Histo rically, the “Grace of the Sa ge” is
available to the committed spir itual seeker. T o focus on a teacher or
their tea chings by meditation makes the power and ener gy of that
teacher available to call upon. It is the will of every truly enlightened
sage that every student succee d, not just members of a particular
group. J ust as the individual seeker benefits all humankind, so too does
the Enlightenment of the teachers benefit the seeker. There are no
requirements or obligations. 14 Spiritual Principles
Evolution on the Map of Cons ciousness is aided by following certain
spiritual principl es, which, over time, unravel the ego’ s perception: The way
I s ee the world is exactly the way it is. T he “way” of s piritual advance ment
through consciousness is actually uncomplicated and simple. 1. Look at life not as a place to acquir e gain but as an opportun ity for
learning, which abounds  even in the smallest of life’ s details. The prim ary
spiritual quality is really one of  overall attitude. A spiritual attitude leads
one to be friendly, kind, and well-meaning to all life. W e find ourselves
walking over an ant carefully rather than squashing it, not as a compulsive
“must” or a religious rule but out of a greater awareness of the value of alllife. All animals  will be discove red to actually be individuals who respond
to respect and attention. Even plants are aware of when you love and
admire them. 2. Develop humility, with the awareness of the limitations of the mind
and appearance. Y ou become increasingly aware that life is filte red through
perception and that what you witness in the world are primarily attitudes
and perceptions rather than self-existent, external realities. Every single
“happening” is consequent to countless conditions, unseen and unknowable,
as the “cause” o f anything is the  totality of the universe up to that moment. Only someone with omniscience  would be able to ascertain the significance
of it, and  thus out of humility, y ou acknowledge your lack of o mniscience! “I know” gives way to “I don’ t know.”
3. Be w illing to ove rlook and for give. T his willingnes s allows the ser ious
spiritual student  to resign from the self-appointed duties of bein g the one to
judge, correct, control, direct, a nd change the world, and expre ss opinions
about everything. As a serious s piritual student, one is no long er obligated
to c ontinue these chores; inste ad, they are turned over to divine justice. Inasmuch as the mind has no i dea of what Reality even is, relinquishing
these for mer duties will be a relief and also bring an end to a lo t of guilt. It
is therefore quite helpful to give up “causes” and rallies for the oppressed,
downtrodden, other victims, and sentimentalities. Each person is merely
fulfilling their own destiny; allo w them to do so. W ith detachment, it will
be observed that most people enjoy the melodrama of their lives. 4. Observe people  with compassion. Observation reveals that physical
appearance is a great deceiver. Most people look like adults but are not
really ad ults at all. Emotionally, most are still children. The emotions and
attitudes that prevail in kinder garten and on the playground cont inue on into
adult life but ar e hidden in more dignified-sounding terminol ogy. W ithin
most people is a child who is merely imitating being an adult.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>Summarize the following text section accurately and concisely. Maintain specific details and numerical information, and use anti-repetition mechanisms:

fully carried out can not, and still more radiation
exacerbates it. 4. As shown by case studies, radiation
and radionukleotidy derived from the human body for only 12 -
14-day hunger wet or dry for 5-7 days. At the same person
much less to lose weight than normal fasting. as a result of
mentioned processes that occur during starvation, fully
solved the problem of radiation exposure. and indeed, after
Chernobyl, an academician AI V orobiev decided to use starvation
to people affected by acute radiation sickness (when formed
ulceration in the gastrointestinal tract). Bone marrow transplantation
and the use of a powerful antibiotic in such cases is almost
hopeless, but because of famine affected people are restored
their health. For the first time in world practice, the method of fasting helped
in the case where the powerless have been others, most modern
(American, Japanese) treatment options! and no wonder, since these
treatment options - the fruit of artificial reasoning, and famine -
natural process, nothing to do with them not having. 135
135After such entry pass to the main question - why
positions are held at certain times of the year? If we combine
the date of the posts and signs of the zodiac, we see that three of the
four positions account for "fire signs". Christmas
post (40 days) accounted for a sign of Sagittarius. Lent (48
days) at the sign of Aries. Assumption (14 days) on the sign of Leo, and
Petrova duration of fasting, is not constant and varies
8 to 42 days. This fluctuation is caused by adjustment to
natural rhythms. during the active sun, when a lot of energy,
expectancy increases. in cold years, on the contrary,
terms of hunger are reduced. There's no gag -
all the laws of nature. during these periods the Earth from space
falls increased the amount of energy, acting like
radioactive, may upset the body works. Remember
work AL Chizhevskogo "Terrestrial Echo of Solar Storms, and more immediately
become clear. If at this time to fast, then the space and increased
amount of solar energy will go to creating, enhancing
biosynthesis. If you still continue to eat, the energy is not
assimilating to cause destruction of cells, and free radicals
would be depressing effect on the cells, undermining the standard of
potential of the whole organism. But bacteria and viruses in this period
from an abundance of energy is converted into an active state, and successfully
attack the weakened body. It was at this time worldwide
observed in the influenza epidemic (spring and early winter) and cholera
(Summer). during the active sun, these processes become so
pronounced that in the middle of this century died out
majority of the population of Europe! You can starve in a different time
year, but the combination of high natural energy and hunger gives
best effect by activating the "fiery principle, which
when hunger is quenched. The ancient sages have used everything and gave
the best advice, we can only follow them. Protection against adverse environmental factors
Together with native toxins formed
in the body during fasting and displays brought about poisons
- Captivated by our way of life chemistry, from the poisoned atmosphere of
water and foods. But this, however, be expected. in our
environmental conditions, these facts can not be ignored. But
Fasting also gives a remarkable preventive effect. More
long after the dry hunger maintain the highest
protective potential, with the same periodic fasting person
becomes virtually invulnerable to nitrates, phenols, sulfur
gas and nuclear power plants. Cancer prevention
When I was studying for an RTD with Professor YS Nikolaev
He told me about an interesting experiment. Students
Stavropol Medical Institute 120 white rats divided them into 4 groups. 136
136One-control, and three others exposed 3-day-starvation. The first of these three sarcoma grafted to starvation, the second during
him, and the third-after. Did not starve the control group died
completely. Of the 30 individuals who have planted sarcoma before the experiment,
killed half of the 30 who were injected in the period of fasting -
third. All those who have had injections, after starvation, were
alive. As I wrote, during the dry fasting survive the most
strong, viable cells, so even short-term
Dry fasting is a major preventive measure
against malignant tumors. Another wonderful effect
Hunger was possible to fix the American scientist. They studied
the influence of starvation on the development of severe forms of cancer. Animals
divided into two groups - experimental and control. Control group rats were exposed to radioactive
radiation. Dose was selected so as not to cause rapid death
animals, but within 2-3 weeks after irradiation, all had cancer
blood. Another group - a pilot - were more fortunate. Until
exposure the animals were receiving the full fasting. Seemed
would be weakened by fasting the body must react to this
negative impact is even more acute, the disease should be more
severe. But the results were diametrically opposed! in the experimental group compared with the control of
diseased rats decreased by 70%. Update energy? As I wrote the water - one of the best energy-
carriers. This is achieved through a unique molecular
water structure and variability of its cluster structure. Also
scientists had proved that in the human body long before the
symptom onset form local sites
"Heavy" water, water with the wrong structure - pathological
zone. Any evil eye, damage, or simply human jealousy, in short all
Negative energy is in these pathological areas. During dry fasting is replacing the old
"Dead" water for high-quality, energy-date,
"Living" water, synthesized by the body. Dry starvation - is primarily a spiritual work is strengthened,
designed for cleaning the body and soul from the parasites of
these entities, which also serves to strengthen the willpower
and to strengthen the power of positive thinking in the early stages
evolution. Dry hunger burns evenly all the organs of the body
all unfit for its evolution, not only in the mechanical
Plan, but spiritually. Since after a minimum of 7-10 days
negative energy essence, feeling his death in
lack of food, start leaving you. Because they can not stand
dry hunger and positive vibrations emitted by you. Especially
if you underpins all positive cases. Dry hunger
137
137gives the amount of energy. It sounds incredible: how is it, man
nothing to eat, spending power, and its energy increases? But the paradox
no. Being deprived of food organic, organism strongly
begins to absorb the subtle energy of the cosmos and the Environment
