rought together by the energy to do a task. Normally,
successful bus inesses have to plan their growth by
developing bus iness plans and financial budgets. In our
case, our only business plan was to try to keep up with
life’s powerful wave that was carrying us forward. Our
only budget was to hire who ever showed up who could
help us. But no  matter how h ard we tried, it seemed that
life just kept stepping things up to another level.
A perfect example of how our miraculous growth took
place organically can be seen by some unexpected phone
calls I received in the mid-1980s. The first was in the
spring of 1985 from a woman  who introduced herself as
a vice president of Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield.
Empire handled New York City and was one of the
largest Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance providers in the
country. Part of its efforts to convert medical practices in
the area to ele ctronic claims was to sell the doctors a
practice management system. The company had been
developing its own software but didn’t feel it was
competitive w ith The Medical Manager. I was very
honored when  she told me that Empire wanted to drop
its system and market The Medical Manager under a
private label. You certainly couldn’t beat having Blue
Cross Blue Shield marketing your p roduct to its doctors.
Before I could catch my brea th, I was contacted by BlueCross Blue Shield of New Jersey with the same request.
Then came South Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, Hawaii,
Mississippi, Colorado, and a few others. All those Blue
Cross Blue Shields ended up marketing The Medical
Manager to the doctors in t heir states. I saw this as a
living le sson in the power of  surrender. For years I had
been willing to let go of my personal preferences and
focus on doing the absolute best I could with what life
presented me. I hadn’t expected anything in return, and I
was very humbled to see what was unfolding.
By the 1986– 88 period, Personalized Programming
had about a dozen employees, most of whom were
programmers. We were a tiny company, yet we were
earning millions of dollars a year in royalties alone.
Systems Plus had very quickly realized the enormous
potential of the medical marketplace and dropped all its
other products to focus exclusively on The Medical
Manager. As head of Personalized Programming, it was
now my job to do business with all these large
corporations. I had never worked at that level before. But
just as life had  given me on-the-job training to become a
builder and a programmer, s he was now training me to
be a corporate  executive. I had already seen too much,
however, to be a convent ional executive. Even in
business, I intended to continue trusting the flow of life
as my ultimate adviser.
One thing I sa w again and again on this ride with life
was tha t the right person would show up at just the right
time. I literally banked on that perfection, and it is
amazing how it kept happening. Even our corporate
attorney, Rick Karl, was into yoga and meditation. It
seemed that life was surrounding me with spiritually
oriented people, not only at the Temple, but also in my
business.
How life managed to do this is perhaps epitomized by
the foll owing p erfectly orche strated sequence of events.
It began when Systems Plus asked us to host arepresentative from a laboratory equipment company
who wa nted to  meet the Medical Manager development
team. It  was rare that System s Plus sent prospects out to
the woods in Alachua, but in this case there was no
choice. Systems Plus staff practically begged me to wear
a j acket, laced-up shoes, and have everyone on their best
professional b ehavior. Paul Dobbins was our visitor’s
name, a nd he had an extensive background as a senior
technical analyst and product manager.
I sent Rick Kar l, our very presentable attorney, to pick
up the gentleman from the Gainesville airport. When he
returned, Rick stuck his head in my office with a grin on
his face the size of the Cheshire cat’s. Then, in walks our
important gues t. The first thing I noticed was that he had
a particular piece of jewelry wrapped around his upper
arm. It looked remarkably similar to the special bangle
that Yoganand a used to wear. As it turned out, it was.
Paul Dobbins was a follower of Yogananda, had taken the
lessons, and had been doing Kriya yoga for many years.
You can  be sure I was shocke d, but imagine how he felt.
He flies  in from St. Louis on this important business trip
to m eet the pre sident of the company that wrote the top-
rated m edical practice ma nagement system in the
country. He walks into the president’s office and sees
pictures of Yogananda all over the place.
At first,  there were no words  between us. Paul just sat
down on the couch and t ook in the beauty of the
moment. The energy in that room was befitting the
presence of a master. I couldn’t keep my eyes open, and
Paul was visibly overcome. A fter sitting in silence for a
while, I  asked him if he would  like to see the Temple. We
walked down the tree-lined road, onto the rustic dirt
path, an d into that holy place adorned with the pictures
of grea t masters. Needless to say, this was not Paul’s
usual business trip.
Paul ex tended his visit through the weekend and
stayed in a small ten-by-ten-foot guest room on Templeproperty. Come Sunday, he didn’t want to leave. Paul
had apparently gotten into meditation on his own, and
he didn’t have many people around him who were into
yoga. H e was overwhelmed by what was going on at the
Temple and the strength of the Gainesville spiritual
community. He came to me after Sunday services with
the inev itable question: “May  I stay and work for you?” I
felt dee p in my heart that Pau l belonged here and that he
really wanted to be p art of the Temple and the business.
But I didn’t feel right about him just leaving the company
that had sent him here, so I told him let’s wait and see
how things unfold.
Some months later, I received a rather panicky call
from Paul. He told me that his company had suddenly
been sold, and his boss and many other employees were
bailing out. Paul was turning in his resignation but
wanted to continue working with The Medical Manager
in some  manner. Life’s message was perfectly clear—it
was time to offer Paul a job.
Paul ar rived in less than a  week with some of his
belongings. We  allowed him to stay in that same ten-by-
ten-foot guest room until he  found a place of his own.
Five yea rs late r, Paul was sti ll living in that tiny room. I
have no idea w hat he did with his belongings, but I do
know that he came to morning and evening services at
the Temple like clockwork.
Paul wa s a tremendous asset  to the company, and he
showed up exactly when he w as needed the most. Shortly
after he  joined the team, we began getting contacted by
the major national laboratories. They all wanted us to
interface The Medical Manag er to their labs. Paul was an
expert i n the field, and we were one of the first practice
management systems to implement electronic
connectivity with the major  lab companies. We could
never have succeeded as we  did without Paul on our
team. W hen I reflect back on how he came to us, it looks
like a gift from  the universe. T wenty years later, Paul stillworked for the company and,  to this day, lives in a home
with his wife and family bordering Temple property. It
appears that some things are just meant to be.3 8.
T h e  T e m p l e  K e e p s  G r o w i n g
M orning meditations took on a whole new meaning as
the software company got larger and larger. Not only
were meditation and yoga essential for continuing my
inward journey, but they were essential for keeping the
mind s ane. So much is demanded of you when you’re
running an organization on which so many people rely
for thei r livelihood. The mind needs time to quiet down
and keep everything in perspective.
Leaving Temp le services on a winter morning after
sunrise, we often find the field covered in a mist of dew.
Giant oaks, pines, and hickory trees embrace the field on
three si des, and the north sid e opens up to that beautiful
rolling pasture that slopes down to the tree-lined stream.
Just standing out there with  a quiet mind is heaven on
Earth.
It wasn’t that way one misty morning in early
December 1988. When we walked out of the quietude of
the Tem ple onto the interior field, we heard the roar of
large machinery coming from the north. To our utter
surprise, we saw giant bulldo zers and other land-clearing
equipment on our neighbor ’s rolling field. We didn’t
know w hat to make of it, so we walked up the hill to

 it is extremely dangerous to be playing with them like it were some
game. It is now thought that these viral proteins become a part of our cells’
DNA structures in some way and are passed down through genetics. Again, it
is important to understand God and the word “consciousness.” As what we
have experienced in life becomes a part of our memory patterns, so it is withall life, including the tiniest cells within the body. All life has memory and
emotions, right down to the smallest created substances and elements. This
has been proven over and over again with plants and animals, as well as with
cells.
Men and women must awaken out of this “sleep state,” and ascend in
their awareness toward God. This will broaden their perspectives and their
understanding of how simple and how beautiful health and life really is. It is
time to fill yourself (your consciousness) with love, energy, health and
vitality, and to rise above the lower levels of disease.
“Detoxification and Regeneration” is the only answer to our current
dilemma. The consciousness of treatment has taken us down a devastating
road. Cleaning your body out of all these toxins and strengthening your cells
is logical, and proven to overcome the many conditions mentioned above.
It’s your body. Think about it. Trust in yourself and God (nature). Learn
all you can about true health and vitality through nature and the tools (food
and herbs) that nature supplies for your health and vitality.
Wake up! It’s almost too late
now.

MODULE 4.5
 Chemical Toxicity:
Environmental, Hygiene, Household and Drug

If you know anyone with chemical or environmental toxicity, you know
firsthand the amount of suffering involved. I helped an individual who was
so chemically toxic that the very smell of gasoline fumes made her faint. We
have destroyed our home (Earth) with chemicals, and now it’s too late. We
can only stand by while the Earth detoxifies itself through many atmospheric
and land changes. This is one of the biggest disgraces in human history.
Similarly, our physical bodies are ravaged with disease, as cancer is now
climbing to one in every two males and one in every three females. That
means that half the population has cancer and most of these will probably die
from it. At the same time, the other half of the population is developing it.
The Natural Resources Defense Council relates that over 85,000 synthetic
chemicals are in commercial use today, many now known to cause cancer, as
well as damage to the brain, nervous system and reproductive systems. It is
estimated that human technology releases over 6,000,000,000 pounds of
chemicals into the environment every year. Whales and porpoises are
beaching themselves in ever greater numbers. Fish are dying everywhere, and
animals in the wild are developing cancer and birth deformities as never seen
before. What is it going to take for humans to awaken to this? Every single
individual, I don’t care how wealthy or intellectual, is ingesting over 120
pounds of chemicals each year, including over ten different pesticides each
day. Our immune systems cannot handle this level of insult to the body.

 of the Earth;  the Land
°f the  'I AM';  the  Land  in which  must  come  the  First
Ascended  Master  Freedom  to mankind"! 64 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES
May  I remind  you  tonight,  your  Goddess  of Liberty  in
the Harbor  of New  York  is but the symbol  of the Great
Being,  Who  will  one day come  to be known  to the children
of Earth!  I say to you,  one day That  Great  Being,  shall  stand
in the midst  of mankind  visible  to all! Then  the Earth  will
know  what  Harmony  means.
Try to understand,  Oh Beloved  Ones,  everything  which
irritates  or disturbs  you,  is just  the human  creation  which
wants  to longer  hold  its dominion  within  and  about  you.  It
should  be your  signal  to call your  "Mighty  I AM  Presence"
into action,  to take  command  of you  and  your  world.
There  is no power  to harm  you,  even  of your  own  crea-
tion,  Beloved  Ones!  There  is no power,  I say to you,  which
has power  to harm  you  even  of your  own  creations,  in the
Acknowledgment  of your  Presence!  Please,  Oh  Beloved
Students  of Saint  Germain,  know  that  neither  your  own
creation  nor any  one's  else  has power  to limit  or harm  you!
Even  the discarnate  entities  have  no power  to touch  you  or
harm  you,  if you  will  take  your  stand  in the Presence  of
Light  and  say to them:  "Be  gone"!
Do not yield  to those  things  thru  superstition,  or belief,
or by suggestion.  The  world  is full of suggestions.  Be Firm!
you do not have  to accept  them.  Be Firm!  I plead  with  you!
Don't  accept  suggestions  from  anything  or anybody.  If you
will draw  That  Tube  of Light  about  you,  you  will  have  an
Invincible  Protection;  which  does  not allow  suggestions  of
any kind,  to charge  your  world  or find  entrance  there.  I
say to you  now:  Be Firm!  Be Firm!  Be Firm! DISCOURSE  VIII  65
There  is no power  to act except  your  Presence,  when
once  you  come  to know  It! Become  serene!  Issue  your  De-
crees!  either  for the Freedom  of America  or the removal
of discarnates,  and  then  go on about  your  work.  Do not
allow  your  contemplation  to be on that  which  you  do not
want.  You  compel  it to come  into  your  world  if you  do;
but stand  firm  in the Fulness  of your  Presence,  which  is the
All-Power  of your  world.
Remember,  your  Higher  Mental  Body  will  release  in-
stantly  into  your  body  and  world,  everything  you  require,
if you  will  but realize  it! If you  will  but feel  the Fulness  of
Its Power  at your  Call.  Feel  It flow  thru!  Even  as I speak
These  Words!  Feel  that  Power  flow  thru  you  from  your
Presence—an  Invincible  Activity,  forever  sustained  and  ac-
tive within  your  minds  and  bodies.  It is True!  It shall  re-
main  so within  you,  unless  you  insist  upon  allowing  your
attention  to go and  be fastened  upon  discordant  things!
We are in This  Class,  making  a Tremendous  Effort  to
set you  Free—every  one  here!  If you  will  but follow  Our
Explanations  and  refuse  to let fears  or doubts  trouble  you,
then  you  will  have  no struggle!  I say to you,  doubts  and
fears  no longer  have  power  to hold  or bind  you.  Doubts
and fears  are dissolved  from  your  world!  Whatever  has
been  accumulated  there  is dissolved.  If you  allow  your  at-
tention  to be on doubts  and  fears  again,  the fault  is yours!
In This  Class  they  have  been  removed  from  your  world.
You are given  the  Opportunity  to stand  firm  with  your
Presence,  and  no longer  experience  what  you  have  created. 66 THE  "I AM"  DISCOURSES
Remember,  I have  said  to the Students  of Saint  Germain
in America,  one-third  of all your  accumulation  of discord
has been  dissolved  for you  in your  world,  and  I mean  Every
Word  of it! One-third  of what  would  be considered  in the
old occult  parlance,  one-third  of your  probation  has  been
set aside  for you—all  the  Students  in America  and  the
World,  of the "I AM,"  under  Beloved  Saint  Germain.  Will
you not accept  This  and  let the Fulness  of Its Power  act in
your  world,  to produce  Perfection  for you ?
Beloved  Ones,  is it so difficult  to realize,  that  We  are
Wholly  Free  Beings  wielding  Infinite  Power,  today  coming
to render  Assistance  to the Children  of Earth ? Is it so diffi-
cult to feel It? Is it so difficult  to accept  the Infinite  Power
of Love  and  Freedom  which  We  offer ? Is it so difficult  in
the Acknowledgment  of the  Presence,  to maintain  Self-
control ? It means  Harmony  in your  world,  which  allows
these  Great  Currents  of Energy,  not only  from  your  Pres-
ence,  but  Those  Great  Cosmic  Currents  to go forth  with
Their  added  Strength  and  Power—to  strengthen  and  en-

, actually has more dire consequences inmen. A fractured hip in a male, most commonly related toosteoporosis, is associated with a 25 percent mortality rate inthe first year of occurrence. T estosterone prevents and reversesosteoporosis.
An extremely common consequence of low testosterone
levels in men is the onset of depression. They lose their interestin life, and their energy levels go down. Replacement of testos-terone brings back energy, restores lost strength and interest inlife, and leads to the buildup of muscle.
Very often the libido returns too. I’ve seen male patients in
their 70s who hadn’t had sex in 25 years who, with testosteronereplacement, began having sex on a daily basis. Of course, theirpartners’ hormones had to be dealt with as well.104 THE MIRACLE OF BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES  THE CORRECT USE OF TESTOSTERONE
As with any other hormone, testosterone must be used correctly,
especially since testosterone can convert into other hormonesthat may cause other problems.
It is often beneficial to determine the blood levels of
testosterone. The test for free testosterone level is the mostimportant test in this regard, not the more frequently usedtest for total testosterone level. The free testosterone levelindicates the amount of biologically active testosterone thatis available. However, levels of testosterone go up and downduring the day.
The highest levels occur early in the morning, before
testing is usually done. I have found that most men after theage of 50 have a level either below the normal range or else inthe lower range of normal. Yet many of these men still getmorning erections (an excellent indication of adequatetestosterone levels) and have no problems with performanceor libido.
No matter how low the level, if a man has no sexual
problems I do not replace testosterone. Normal levels of freetestosterone range from 50 to 210. Normal levels of totaltestosterone range from 250 to 1,000. I find that checkinglevels of testosterone is more useful in determining correctreplacement dosages—too much or too little.
When replacing testosterone, one should be aware that this
hormone can be converted into other hormones that may haveunpleasant consequences. One is the form of estrogen knownas estradiol, which can cause prostate cancer and possiblycolon cancer. The other is dihydrotestosterone (DHT), whichmay cause prostate enlargement and male pattern hair loss.
Because of these possibilities, the levels of these two
hormones should be monitored. High levels of DHT can often105 ANDR OPAUSE—THE MALE MENOPAUSE  be avoided by correct placement of testosterone cream or gel
on the skin. It is always best to apply testosterone to areas ofthe body devoid of hair. Certain enzymes found around hairfollicles can convert testosterone into DHT (in other words,applying the cream to a shaved area will not help). Acceptableareas may include the upper and inner arms, shoulders, backof the knees, and around the ankles. Certain supplements canalso help in this regard, among them saw palmetto, beta-sitosterol, and pygeum.
There are ways to keep estradiol levels lower.  Discuss with
the compounding pharmacist or your medical doctor theaddition of 10 percent chrysin to the testosterone cream.Chrysin is an aromatase inhibitor. Aromatase is necessary toconvert testosterone into estradiol, so anything that lowers thisenzyme is beneficial. Arimidex can be used to lower estradiol.The recommended dose for men is 50 mcg per day, availablefrom a compounding pharmacy.
Zinc is another important supplement to use while on
testosterone. The prostate gland absorbs more zinc than anyother area of the body. Zinc also acts as an aromatase inhibitor,thereby keeping estrogen levels low. As a side note: the eyes aresecond in the absorption of zinc, which helps prevent maculardegeneration, the most common cause of adult blindness.
The dosage of testosterone should usually be about
¼tsp
of a 10 percent transdermal cream twice a day. The prescrip-tion should read: “T estosterone 10%. Apply
¼tsp BID [twice
a day] to hairless area” (upper or inner arms, shoulders, back ofknees, or ankles). When the libido returns, one dose a day maybe adequate.
Blood tests that should be monitored include:
• T otal testosterone
• Free testosterone106 THE MIRACLE OF BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES  • Estradiol
• DHT• PSA (prostate specific antigen) with free PSA
The benefits of testosterone far outweigh any potential
downside. But it should be used safely with attention toprostate health. In addition, too much testosterone can raisecholesterol levels, cause male pattern baldness, raise levels ofred blood cells, and possibly cause aggressive behavior.
WHY PROGESTERONE
Many people, even some physicians, do not consider proges-
terone to be a male hormone (it is), and some are not awarethat men produce estrogen (they do). Once again, men andwomen produce exactly the same hormones, but in differentamounts. I prescribe progesterone for most of my malepatients over 50 for a number of reasons. As men get older,their levels of progesterone decrease, becoming almost non-existent around the age of 50. This is about the same age whenmen start putting on their “middle-aged paunch.” Could therebe a connection?
The answer is a most definite yes. And the reason?
Progesterone is the number one hormone for lowering insulinlevels, the hormone that creates fat right around the middle.This is also the time of life when men may experience fatiguebetween 3 and 4 in the afternoon or getting sleepy whiledriving or after eating—the classic times for tiredness relatedto over-production of insulin. When insulin levels go up,blood sugar goes down.
A brain deprived of sugar gets sleepy. The number one
cause of people falling asleep while driving is hypoglycemia.The number one cause of hypoglycemia is too much insulin.107 ANDR OPAUSE—THE MALE MENOPAUSE  The number one cause of too much insulin is low proges-
terone. One of the first benefits people experience afterstarting progesterone is that they no longer get sleepy in theafternoon, after eating, or while driving.
Another reason I believe men over 50 should take proges-
terone is that I suspect that it prevents prostate cancer. Icannot point to studies that show this, but it is logical. As menapproach andropause, their progesterone levels drop and theirestrogen levels start rising. This is also about the time thatprostate cancer becomes a risk. If estrogen causes six differentcancers in women, why wouldn’t it be up to no good in menas well? Not only cancer of the prostate but also cancer of thecolon could be caused by excess estrogen in men’s bodies.
Other benefits from progesterone in men are as follows:
prevention of Alzheimer’s disease, prevention of osteoporosis,prevention of coronary artery spasm, reversal of depression,and elimination of asthma.
JIM B. ’S STORY
The dramatic effects of progesterone in men are perhaps best
illustrated by the story of one of my patients, Jim B. When Ifirst met Jim, he was 54 years old. He came into my office, satdown, and with no other preamble stated, “Doc, if you don’thelp me, I’m going to commit suicide.” He added that I was hislast resort.
He had four major complaints: 1) he was (obviously)
depressed, 2) he was severely hypoglycemic, 3) he had asthma,and 4) he had osteoporosis.
I told him right off that his problems were easily resolved
and that he had a deficiency of progesterone. He looked at mequizzically and said that over the previous several years hehad been back and forth across the country, spent tens of108 THE MIRACLE OF BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONES  thousands of dollars, consulted with the best doctors in the
finest clinics and institutions, had hundreds of blood tests andprocedures done, and no one had ever mentioned the word“progesterone,” much less tested for it. And here, in the spaceof several minutes, I identified this as his problem.
Although he strongly suspected I was a “quack,” he agreed
to a trial of progesterone. In only three days he was saying, “Inmy entire life I have never felt so good.”
This response was exactly the response I had expected.
Progesterone affects every neurotransmitter in the brain andcan readily eliminate depression. It prevents the over-produc-tion of insulin and helps hypoglycemia. It is wonderful foreliminating asthma. This may possibly be related to its anti-estrogen effect. Estrogen is a common cause of asthma, andmen often have high levels of estrogen. Progesterone is alsobeneficial for preventing and treating osteoporosis.
During their training, doctors receive an extremely limited
amount of information about hormones. Thus it is notsurprising that every medical specialist Jim had spoken to wasunable to diagnose his problem.
I consider progesterone the second most important
hormone for replacement in men. There are actually no down-sides to using this hormone. It must be obtained from acompounding pharmacy. The cream is used in lieu of an oralform in order to bypass the liver. The prescription I usuallyrecommend is: progesterone 100 mg/

her old, unsuccessful pattern?“You’re here this weekend to talk about healing,” I said, “and in your
case, physical and emotional healing would be superficial. Your need is for
a healing at the level of belief.”
“Meaning what?” she asked.
“I suppose we could say you need a better love life with God. First your
concept of ‘higher ’ power has to be reexamined. God or spirit stands beside
us in every aspect of our everyday lives. Second, the belief that God is
masculine must  be exchanged for a genderless alternative, given how
threatening masculine energy is to you. If you can begin to see how your
notion of spirit has been shaped  by your early childhood, you can start to
look at love as a mirror of the present instead of the past.” This last is a key
concept:
When you fall in love, you fall for a mirr or of your own most pr esent needs.
The intense desirability of another person isn’t innate in that person.
Desire is born in the one who desires. In Clare’ s case, since her underlying
self-image is that of a helpless, unloved girl, any show of power arouses
incredible yearning in her.
There is nothing wrong with this—we all project similar needs in our
search for love.  Nor is there anything wrong with the bedazz led state of
infatuation that Clare has so often sought. Each affair, real or imaginary, has
a repeated message to offer her: “You are loved.” It is the simplest of
messages, but often the hardest  to absorb. For spirit isn’t saying, “You are
loved as long as your passion for this man lasts.” It is saying, “You are
loved,” without any qualifications. If Clare does begin to gain insight and
remove the obstacles that block her vision, spirit’ s message will be awaiting
her. There is infinite patience in spirit, infinite willingness to wait upon our
attention. And one day, in her own time, Clare will notice.
“I think that each man you have loved is a tiny reminder of who you are,”
I told Clare. “This isn’t solipsistic but a natural reflection of your needs.
You aren’ t judged by the love life you choose, since no one is outside
yourself to judge—there is only you as the Self, looking at you from a
different angle.”
“I don’ t see how that helps,” Clare said.“The Self looki ng at you is the primary relationship you bring into all
situations,” I said. “Realizing that, you will start to reduce expectations for
other relationships. In your case you expect a lot from fantasy, but you
could transfer those expectation s to yourself. What do you really want from
men? Security, well-being, a sense of belonging? These are all available to
you from  your own Self, and your healing will be to fall in love with that
Self.”
The secret to spiritual healing is that its foundation is already laid. In his
exalted poetry, Walt Whitman speaks of the ever -presentness of love:
There was never any more inception than there is now,
Nor any more youth or age than there is now,
And will never be any more perfection than there is now,
Nor any more heaven or hell than there is now.
I read this passage to Clare, who sat silently for a moment. “I’ve been
around for a while,” she said, “and I’m not unconscious. I see that I’m
stuck, and for a long time this concept of learning to love yours elf has been
prescribed to me. But I honestly cannot see how it works.”
“The reason for that,” I said, “is that you are bringing the wrong  model to
your notion of what self-love is. In duality, love connects two separate
people. If that is your model of love, you will have no choice but to see
self-love in much the same way. That is, you’ll try to separate off the parts
of yourself that you value and direct appreciation toward them. But
fragmentation is the problem, not the solution. Self-love and self-division
don’t go togethe r. Self-love isn’t on the level of personality; it’s on the level
of being. Being is whole, and when you recognize that, every part of
yourself rejoins its true status as totality. Learning to love and accept the
powerless, lonely little girl inside you, giving her permission to be part of
you, will lessen her role in directing your love life.”
If you strip away  the details of Clare’ s story, her search for love in all the
wrong places stands for a much more general condition. Love between
“you” and “me”  is a dualistic conception. People have been falling madly in
love for centuries, but that hasn’t solved the deeper problem of inner
division. If anything, such divisi on has been exacerbated as generation after
generation tries to resolve separation through others. What heals inner
division is a change of perception.You are not just a small piece of divine essence that was create d to exist
separately. At the level of your soul you are the whole of spirit. Your
connection to God is complete and seamless; your loving relatio nship to the
universe is total. The mind cannot conceive of this all-inclusiveness,
however, while being caught in its own dualism. We think of ourselves as
father or mother, son or daughter, man or woman, here or there, this or that.
Separation is built from our own self-image.
Thought cannot restore wholeness because by definition thoug ht is also
fragmented. Yet everyone’ s mind contains the essence of spirit; silence and
intuitive knowle dge come naturally to us. The fact that we have drastically
devalued these aspects of our inner life doesn’ t abolish them. Already you
can touch on valuable parts of your life that you can know only by setting
thoughts aside. How do you know if you are happy, or intelligent, or
awake? These aren’ t issues you reason with; they are self-evident.
You do not have to think in order to see and hear; you do not have to
have an active dialogue inside your head to know that you exist.
Awareness is awar e of itself befor e it gains knowledge of anything else.
The deep er reaches of intuitive knowledge, however, feel foreign because
our cultu re hasn’ t shown us how to explore the inner world. When we turn
to privileged outsiders—to seers and poets, for example—we discover
many truths that only the silent voice of spirit can reveal. If we could rise
above our narrowness of vision,  we would perceive our higher Self directly,
as W alt Whitman did:
There is that in me—I do not know what it is—but I know it is in me....
Do you see O my brothers and sisters?
It is not chaos or death—it is form, union, plan—it is eternal life—it is Happiness.
The fact that we cannot sustain Whitman’ s vision means that our growth
from duality to unity is still under way, which is why the path to love exists.
The ability to live in the Self must be relearned—this is what walking the
path is all about.
TENDER COUR TSHIP
The next stage of romance, courtship, is more than just the time for winning
one’s love. At a subtler level it brings together two people’ s perceptions.Beneath the lovers’ talk and tender emotions, the fragile birth  of spirit is
being tested. Its survival depends not just on how exalted and transformed a
man and woman may feel. An act of interpretation must also take place, in
which the right words are found for a shared experience.
Courtship is a tender, tentative stage in which two lovers decide whether
to pursue a new reality or return to the old. It is the first phase in which two
futures are at stake, not just one.
In ancient India the spiritual equivalent of this phase was called Satsang,
a word that can be translated as “the company of truth,” or more loosely,
“the sharing of spirit.” When disciples sat at the feet of their master,
listening to his wisdom, they were taking satsang, but any communion of
spiritual seekers is given the same name. Before departing this world, Christ
told his disciples, “Where two or three of you gather in my name, I will be
there.” That is satsang without the master ’s physical presence. Turning your
conversation in the direction of spirit makes a casual chat with a friend a
form of satsang as well. The link with courtship is very clear, for courtship
is about  speakin g your heart to another, sharing your spirit in a way you
cannot do alone.
The satsang of lovers often takes place in silence, which holds true for
some of the greatest saints also; simply to be in their presenc e infuses us
with the spirit of God. People who feel genuinely comfortabl e with each
other are able to talk about their fears, wishes, and hopes, but the
communion of lovers is far more intense. Courtship is a shared birth, a rare
opportunity to exchange what is most innocent in each partner. Intimacy
allows a man to tell a woman things he did not know existed within himself,
and the same for a woman.
What becomes shared may have never existed in the past. The past is
based on memor y

• An outstanding physician solved the problem of diabetes
Some years ago I received a clipping from a magazine descr ibing
the origin of the discovery of insulin. This is the essence of the  article
as I recall it.
About forty years ago or more, Dr. Frederick Banting, a brillia nt
Canadian physician and surgeon, was concentrating his attention on
the ravages of diabetes. At that time medical science of fered no
effective method of arresting the disease. Dr. Banting spent
 130  considerable time experimenting and study-ing the international
literature on the subject. One night he was exhausted and fell asleep.
While asleep, his subconscious mind instructed him to extr act the
residue from the degenerated pancreatic duct of dogs. This was the
origin of insulin which has helped millions of people.
You will note that Dr. Banting had been consciously dwell-ing on
the problem for some time seeking a solution, a way out, and his
subconscious responded accordingly.
It does not follow that you will always get an answer overnight. The
answer may not come for some time. Do not be discouraged. Keep on
turning the problem over every night to the subconscious mind pr ior
to sleep, as if you had never done it before.
One of the reasons for the delay may be that you look upon it as a
major problem. You may believe it will take a long time to solve it.
Your subconscious mind is timeless and spaceless. Go to sleep
believing you have the answer now. Do not postulate the answer in the
future. Have an abiding faith in the outcome. Become convinced now
as you read this book that there is an answer and a perfect solution for
you.
• How a famous scientist and physicist escaped from a Russi an
concentration camp
Dr. Lothar von Blenk-Schmidt, a member of the Rocket Society and
an outstanding research electronic engineer, gives the followi ng
condensed summary of how he used his subcon-scious mind to free
himself from certain death at the hands of brutal guards in a  Russian
prison camp coal mine. He states as follows:
“I was a prisoner of war in a coal mine in Russia, and I saw m en
dying all around me in that prison compound. We were watched over
by brutal guards, arrogant officers, and sharp, fast-thinking
commissars. After a short medical checkup, a quota of coal was
assigned to each person. My quota was three hundred pounds per day.
 131  In case any man did not fill his quota, his small food ration wa s cut
down, and in a short time he was resting in the cemetery.
 “I started concentrating on my escape. I knew that my subconscious
mind would somehow find a way. My home in Germany was
destroyed, my family wiped out; all my friends and former associ ates
were either killed in the war or were in concentration camps.
“I said to my subconscious mind, ‘I want to go to Los Angeles, and
you will find the way.’ I had seen pictures of Los Angeles and I
remembered some of the boulevards very well as well as s ome of the
buildings.
“Every day and night I would imagine I was walking down Wilshire
Boulevard with an American girl whom I met in Berlin prior to the
war (she is now my wife). In my imagina-tion we would visit th e
stores, ride buses, and eat in the restau-rants. Every night I made it a
special point to drive my imaginary American automobile up and
down the boulevards of Los Angeles. I made all this vivid and rea l.
These pictures in my mind were as real and as natural to me as one of
the trees out-side the prison camp.
 “Every morning the chief guard would count the prisoners as they
were lined up. He would call out ‘one, two, three,’ etc., and when
seventeen was called out, which was my number in sequence, I
stepped aside. In the meantime, the guard was called away for a
minute or so, and on his return he started by mistake on the n ext man
as number seventeen. When the crew returned in the evening, the
number of men was the same, and I was not missed, and the discovery
would take a long time.
“I walked out of the camp undetected and kept walking for twenty -
four hours, resting in a deserted town the next day. I was able to live
by fishing and killing some wild life. I found coal trains going t o
Poland and traveled on them by night, until finally I reached Pola nd.
With the help of friends, I made my way to Lucerne, Switzerland.
“One evening at the Palace Hotel, Lucerne, I had a talk with a  man
and his wife from the United States of America. This man ask ed me if
 132  I would care to be a guest at his home in Santa Monica, Cal ifornia. I
accepted, and when I arrived in Los Angeles, I found that their
chauffeur drove me along Wilshire Boulevard and many other
boulevards, which I had imagined, so vividly in the long months in the
Russian coalmines. I recognized the buildings, which I had seen in my
mind so often. It actually seemed as if I had been in Los Angeles
before. I had reached my goal.
 “I will never cease to marvel at the wonders of the sub- conscious
mind. Truly, it has ways we know not of.”
• How archaeologists and paleontologists reconstruct ancient
scenes
These scientists know that their subconscious mind has a memory of
everything that has ever transpired. As they study the ancien t ruins
and fossils, through their imaginative percep-tion, their subc onscious
mind aids them in reconstructing the ancient scenes. The dead p ast
becomes alive and audible once more. Looking at these ancient
temples and studying the pottery, statuary, tools, and household
utensils of these ancient times, the scientist tells us  of an age when
there was no language. Communication was done by grunts, groans,
and signs.
The keen concentration and disciplined imagination of the scienti st
awakens the latent powers of his subconscious mind enabling him t o
clothe the ancient temples with roofs, and surround them with
gardens, pools, and fountains. The fossil remains are clothed with
eyes, sinews, and muscles, and they again walk and talk. The p ast
becomes the living present, and we find that in mind there is no time
or space. Through disci-plined, controlled, and directed imagination,
you can be a companion of the most scientific and inspired think ers of
all time.
• How to receive guidance from your subconscious
When you have what you term “a difficult decision” to make, or
when you fail to see the solution to your problem, begin at onc e to
 133  think constructively about it. If you are fearful and worried, you are
not really thinking. True thinking is free from fear.
Here is a simple technique you can use to receive guidance on a ny
subject: Quiet the mind and still the body. Tell the body to relax; it has
to obey you. It has no volition, initiative, or self-conscious
intelligence. Your body is an emotional disk, which records your
beliefs and impressions.
Mobilize your at-tention; focus your thought on the solution to your
problem. Try to solve it with your conscious mind. Think how happy
you would be about the perfect solution. Sense the feeling y ou would
have if the perfect answer were yours now. Let your mind play w ith
this mood in a relaxed way; then drop off to sleep. When you aw aken,
and you do not have the answer, get busy about something else.
Probably, when you are preoccupied with some-thing else, the ans wer
will come into your mind like toast pops out of a toaster.
In receiving guidance from the subconscious mind, the simple way
is the best. This is an illustration: I once lost a valuable ring, which
was an heirloom. I looked everywhere for it and could not locate it. At
night I talked to the subconscious in the same manner that I would talk
to anyone. I said to it prior to dropping off to sleep, “You know a ll
things; you know where that ring is, and you now reveal to me where
it is.”
In the morning I awoke suddenly with the words ringing in my ear,
“Ask Robert!”
I thought it very strange that I should ask Robert, a young boy ab out
nine years of age; however, I followed the inner voice of intuition.
Robert said, “Oh, yes, I picked it up in the yard while I wa s playing
with the boys. I placed it on the desk in my room. I did not think it
worth anything, so I did not say anything about it.” The subconsc ious
mind will always answer you if you trust it.

FLATULENCE OR BOWEL GASES
Certain chemical processes in the col on produce various gases as by -products of normal bowel function. Some are odorless like
carbon dioxide, while others are very odorous such as hydrogen sulfide. Bowel gases are of no consequence in a healthy colon.
This isn’t true in a diseased colon, howe ver. Excessive gas is an indication of bowel disturbances and can be very serious in its
consequences. For example, when there is a bowel stricture or obstruction due to constipation, the gaseous products may becom e
trapped, not being able to exit the anus. Extreme pressure may develop, causing pain, swelling and other symptoms to appear.
Gas production does not always come from a normal metabolic process. In fact most gaseous wastes are the result of abnormal
conditions in the bowel. They are the produ cts of inferior processes at work in the body. Specifically, they are the result of
putrefactive fermentations. When undigested proteins find their way into the colon, they provide nourishment for unfavorable
bacterial growths. These undesirable bacteria a nd virus are responsible for the breaking down of organic compounds by way of a
putrefactive process. This process is undesirable specifically due to the fact that these organisms produce toxic, poisonous,  disease -
producing (morbid) by -products as a result  of their metabolic functions. The waste materials they produce are injurious to body
tissues. These organisms were not intended to inhabit the human body. Those that are beneficial and indeed necessary for good
health cannot live in an environment which i s dirty, toxic and constipated. When there are pockets, diverticula and ballooning in
the bowel, there is non -moving waste accumulating in the colon. These conditions are ripe for putrefactive fermentation to occur
and result in considerable flatulence, di scomfort and seepage of toxins into the body. A healthy colon produces little to no
flatulence. Taking care of gases in the bowel has been one of the most difficult problems to handle from a nutritional standp oint.
When we start changing the diet and go in to the natural fibered foods that nature has given us, and leave off any man -handling, we
find that we have more of a gas condition. It is like the stirring up of a dirty basement and as we brush it clean, there is a lot of dust
that has formed.

The one unusual thing I observed in taking care of people with a lot of gas is that they could go to town and eat the worst diet
possible and they would be free of gas. You could put them on coffee and donuts and nothing but that for 2 or 3 days and they
report no  gas whatsoever. And. when we put them on a natural fiber diet. as prescribed in our diet advice, then we have gas to
contend with. However, they began to say they were passing off the gas easier - their stools became softer; they did not have to
force the  bowel movement; they did not have to cause pressure: the feces moved easier through the bowel and they no longer were
having problems with constipation. However, the gas still persisted, but it seemed to get less and less and, over a period of  three
month s, we found that it came down to a minimal amount.

Once a bowel has diverticula, it will never become totally free of gas. There are very few people who can say they have no ga s
|whatsoever. To get the gas out completely is almost an impossibility in this  day and age because we cannot live the way of life
necessary to accomplish that task, but I do think it can come down to a minimum and will cause no disturbance – no distress.

THE EFFECT OF GRAVITY ON THE BOWEL
An important thing to realize is that we ha ve pressure, both mechanical and chemical, to take care of as far as the bowel is
concerned. On the chemical side, we have the effects of the acidophilus bacteria, acids and putrefactions. On the mechanical side.
we have peristaltic action and the ever -present downward pull of gravity. Gravity, we must realize, brings on more problems than
most people can possibly imagine. Do you remember the historic landings of American astronauts on the moon? Were you
watching television when it showed them on the moon’s  surface, easily jumping 10 -12 feet high? When they walked, you could
see them bounce with each step. They looked like they were bouncing on a trampoline, because gravity on the moon is much less
than here on earth. Gravity on earth is very harsh on our bo dies. When we walk or stand, our body is pulled down toward the earth.
We have to live with this constant tugging on our vital organs. We find that the intervertebral disks are being pressed down.  I’m
sure we would have few disk problems if everyone lived on the moon. Because there wouldn’t be enough pressure from its gravity
to cause disk problems. On earth we have gravity problems, especially when we are tired. I have said before that tiredness is  the
beginning of every disease; that is when gravity has i ts greatest effect on the body. When we are tired, we begin to lose muscle
tone, so we find that internal organs are more easily pulled downward. When gravity takes its effect, our shoulders begin to droop:
we can have scoliosis or we can develop curvature  of the spine. The softest tissue in the body is the transverse colon, and it is the
only tissue in the body that goes completely from the right side to the left side of the body. If it was made of bone, it wou ld stay in
position; but since the colon is ma de of very soft tissue, a prolapsus or dropped transverse colon can happen as a result of
gravitational pull. There is a new disease coming: it’s called gravitosis. The symptoms are as follows.

PROLAPSUS OF THE TRANSVERSE COLON
When we have prolapsus, all  the organs above the transverse colon are going to fall as well and those below it will suffer the
effects of pressure. When the transverse colon comes down, for exam pie, bladder pressure develops. The uterus can develop
flexions and retroflexions and co uld double over the bowel causing constipation. We sometimes find that there is pressure on the
fallopian tubes or the ovaries. Many times the egg from the ovary cannot pass into the uterus properly and this can cause ste rility.
Still further, we find that  women have more cysts on the ovaries than on any other organ in the body. There are more hysterec -
tomies given to women than any other operation; and I believe it is because a good deal of pressure is against the tubes, pre ssure
which does not allow prope r circulation of blood or the removal of toxic material. But women are not the only ones subject to
pressure -caused troubles; a man with a prolapsus experiences prostate gland pressure. The urethra, through which urine flows from
the bladder, passes throug h the center of the prostate gland. When there is pressure on the prostate gland, urination is difficult.
There will be retention of urine, which is one of the liquids we can absorb back into the body. This can mark the beginning o f
arthritis and joint tro ubles, especially as we grow older. So we find we can have prostate gland and bladder troubles, uterine and
ovarian disturbances, all because of prolapsus caused by gravity.

Many doctors and gastro -intestinal specialists are making their living treating  hemorrhoids and other anal, rectal and bowel
problems caused mainly by pressure from the transverse colon and various organs involved while we are eliminating at the toil et. I
think the toilet is the most abominable device ever invented in our civilizatio n. We find that the Indians never had any rectal
troubles; they had no hemorrhoid troubles whatsoever. Why? They squatted to defecate. If you go to France, Italy or South
America, you will find that the toilet is often a hole in the floor and you have to s quat. This is the normal eliminating position, the
one in which all of our internal organs are held in the proper position. When this position is habitually used for eliminatio n, no
veins will protrude from the rectum.
Now to add to the problem, we may hav e gas or we may have a hard stool. There is pressure against the rectum whenever we have
hard fecal material or excessive gas. These problems are aggravated by fatigue and by the gravitational pull. It is well that  you
know this so you can learn to overcom e these things. To overcome the problem of gravity when and if you must sit on the toilet,
one thing to remember is to keep your hands over your head. You’Il find when you push down, the force is really against the r ectal
tissues and the rectal areas, so t o overcome this keep your hands above your head. That’s the way it should be done anyway, if
you’re going to use the regular toilet seat. In fact, in our sanitarium we had a little rope above and off to the side of the  toilet to
hold when there was a bowel  movement, which kept the hands above the head.

der Kroon  COLITIS  “His grand-daughter Tandeep Kaur is of 13 years. She was a victim of colitis in 1973. For two months shetook western medicines and injections but there was no relief. At last for 15-20 days twice or thrice daily urine-drinking restored her to her normal health.”  from Manav Mootra by R. M. Patel  COLITIS  “Wrong habits of eating lead many people to suffer from colitis either in the region of small intestine or the large one. Shri Yogindra Pankh, B.sc. (Agriculture), suffered from this very painful disease. He is an employee of Khadi Gramodyog Research Committee, Harijan Ashram, Ahmedabad. When allopathy and homoeopathy failed to cure him, he consulted Dr. Adal Beharam, M.D., of Bombay. The latter advised to adopt urine treatment which the pat1ent d1d and was consequently relieved of his trouble.”  Manav Mootra by R.M. Patel  CONSTIPATION  “Shri Pravinchandra Chunilal, aged thirty-six, is a businessman of Bombay (11 0/111, Swadeshi Market, Bombay-2). He had constant Constipation for years together and 53 weighed only 90 lb. He was not able to insure himself only because of his underweight. He undertook urine treatment methodically and not only could cure his old constipation but could increase his weight up to 125 lb.”  Manav Mootra by R. M. Patel  CONSTIPATION  “Shri Keshavbhai Makanbhai is a teacher in village Hajira, Surat. On the advice of his grandfather he treated his three children with urine for their ailments. After this incident he happened to read my book which confirmed his faith in urine therapy. He undertook urine treatment to get rid of his own constant constipation. Here is his account of his cure:  I started only with drinking urine on 10-4-59 and gradually increased to 5 oz. a day till 14-4-59 and gradually my constipation disappeared. On 15-4-59 I took urine once in the morning only. I was feeling very hungry indeed. My abdomen had become quite soft. My chronic constipation was removed by the above treatment Urine is the doctor of the farmers, my grandfather used to say. Constant constipation had badly affected my bowels and at times swelling appeared. For this I started again urine treatment on 5-11-59 for 15 days and I feel myself quite free from it.”  Manav Mootra by R. M. Patel  CONSTIPATION  “Shri Gamanlal K. Parikh is a resident of Dhalni Pole, Ahmedabad. He suffered for many years from chronic constipation and felt itching on the entire body. One night swelling appeared on the whole body and his face looked fearful. He had some acquaintance with Shri Ranjitbhai. So he sent for him and narrated the story of his trouble. He advised him to stop allopathic treatment and to begin urine therapy. Gamanlal agreed to this suggestion. He used to pass urine only once a day in the morning. So his son was asked to store his urine which was utilised in rubbing his father. Just when the rubbing was being done on the abdomen, he felt sensation for motion. On that day he had a very loose motion and the bowels were cleared within a few minutes. At noon and in the evening also he had clear motions. The next day when Ranjitbhai came for rubbing. He was pleased to know that there was 75% improvement. He continued the treatment for three days more and was completely cured.”  Manav Mootra by R. M. Patel  54 CONSTIPATION  “Shri Pravinchandra Parikh is a resident of Khajurini Pole in Kalupur, Ahmedabad and works in a shop of Arvind milIs. Hts body was fatty due to constipation and his heart and memory were very weak. Pravinchandra developed some faith in urine therapy and began to drink urine secretly. Afterwards he disclosed it to Shri Ranjitbhai and reported that he felt excessive heat in the body. Shri Ranjitbhai asked him not to be alarmed, as the heat could subside by itself. Pravinchandra also felt itching sensations. However he continued drinking urine thrice a day. Heat subsided after a few days of treatment. This treatment for two and a half months eliminated his constipation totally and the body became light. The weakness of heart and brain also disappeared. Now he began to relish food. For two and a half months, he had given up the use of salt and took khakhara (dry bread), milk and vegetables in his diet.”  Manav Mootra by R. M. Patel  CONSTIPATION  “Another case involved a man with constipation. His body was fatty due to constipation, and his heart and memory were very weak. He had developed some faith in Urine Therapy and began to drink urine secretly. Excessive heat and a slight itching sensation was noticed, but he continued drinking urine three times daily. Heat subsided after a few days of treatment. This treatment for two and a half months eliminated his constipation totally, and the body became light.

He has a shop in the busiest area of Delhi, Sadar Bazar. I once went to this market with one of my friends on some errand. My friend happened to know Mr. Gupta and as we passed through his shop, he stopped there for some time. I was introduced to Mr. Gupta as a doctor, who after some small talks asked me if I can help him with his constipation of three years. He used to take laxatives but 55 this was becoming a habit with him. In those days I was experimenting with urine, and if I got a chance, I tried to suggest it to the patient. I said to him to come to me at any convenient time and get physically examined. In my dispensary I took his urine for examination and mixed some tincture cardamom in it and gave it to him. I advised him to take this mixture three times a day, abstain from tea and spicy food and to come again next day. I continued this process for three days. Mr. Gupta reported that he was feeling slightly better. I then told him the truth on fourth day, gave him Armstrong's book and asked him to go through it. He read it many times over and discussed the matter from time to time with me also. Finally he got convinced and started taking urine thrice daily. After two months when I met him he looked smarter. He had gained weight and appetite was improved.  "Miracles of Urine Therapy" by Morarji Desai  CONSTIPATION  An old man aged 62 had not passed his stool for three days when he came to me. He was in the habit of taking laxatives, and had come lately to the conclusion that too much drugs are uncurious to health. As his frame of mind was suitable to suggest nature cure, I asked him to stop eating. I advised him to drink enough water and his own urine at least three times a day and also to put a urine-soaked wet cloth over his pelvis and keep it wet. After ten hours, at eleven o' clock at night he felt the need to pass stool. The quantity of stool passed was enormous and he felt very light and relieved. He had a sound sleep in the night. Second day morning when he when he came to me I gave him my copy of the book 'The Water of Life'. He now takes water of life daily and is free from constipation.  Miracles of Urine Therapy by Morarji Desai  CONSTIPATION   Mr. E.J.P., The Netherlands "Around 1975 I heard and read about urine therapy for the first time. That was in Bombay, India. Much earlier, when I was eleven years old, I had heard about and seen this remarkable ritual in which freshly discharged urine is consumed, for example by animals (goats and certain apes use this method during illness). It certainly was interesting that this ancient exceptional knowledge should once again enter my life in the form of a book by Acharya Jagdish B. He is an Indian publisher who had made it his mission in life to promote and popularise this excellent, personal therapy. In this same period, the Indian prime minister Morarji Desai made no bones 56 about the fact that drinking urine was the secret of his virility and energetic attitude towards life. If I remember correctly, this man was well into his seventies and still functioned as prime minister. I recently heard that he is now in his nineties and still leads an active and healthy life. Although I was familiar with this fantastic therapy and had heard that it can help cure illnesses such as cancer, leukaemia, gangrene and many other infections, I could not bring myself to directly try out this method. This happened approximately four years later. In all that time, I still had not found anybody who was experienced in this method, and so I had to rely on my feeling which told me that this knowledge was indeed valuable. Fate placed me in a situation in which I was put in an isolation cell for


 the long run, were “for my own good.” I
immediately came up with a good -sized list.
Then I took a look at things I have done for others that did me no good at all —that, in
fact, actually damaged me in some way —but that  I did anyway, because I loved that other
person, or that project. Again, I came up with a pretty healthy list.
Now the One Soul inspired me to ask myself:
Can you begin to understand how souls could be doing the same kind of thing?
Does it seem to you pos sible that soul -beings would do this as part of their
journey —to advance either their own evolution... or the evolution of another?
I had to admit that suddenly I had a better conceptual understanding of all of this. Then I
suddenly saw a “movie” in my head. I was caused to imagine an exchange between myself
and another soul. In my vision I was walking down a sidewalk in some city and I came
across a street person leaning up against a building, clothes a mess, hair oily from not
having been washed in wee ks, and smelling... well, interesting...  for lack of a better
description.
The street person held out a small paper cup as I passed by. “Would you have any spare
change?” she mumbled.
Oh, this same person is on this same spot six days out of seven, I said to myself. She’s got
a real racket going. Why bother even looking for work when you can pick up who knows
how many dollars a week just standing here asking for it?
I passed her by without giving her so much as a look... but then I turned b ack and
headed straight for her. “Tell me something,” I blurted. “Why don’t you just get a job like
everybody else rather than standing here asking people for money?”
“If I did,” the bag lady replied, “who would be here to let you see who you really are —?”
I was stunned by her answer.
Stunned into silence.
I invite you, now, to move into that silence yourself. Consider her reply. How does it feel
to you? What is your intuitive response? Please give this some thought as you prepare to
move into the final cha pter of this book; as you prepare to embrace The Final Change...
“Show yourself to me,”
said I to God again.
And this is what happened next:
I became pregnant with Light.
My eyes were sunrise and sunset, both.
Freckles announced themselves planets and s tars,
and beamed upon my cheeks.  Each of my lips became a kiss to the other,
my ears heard oceans of life.
Between my eyes there was an indigo wheel,
between my toes, blond fields.
My hands remembered climbing -trees,
my hair, each Lover’s fingers.
And then  I whispered,
“But why have you made me this way?”
And it was told to me:
“Because I have never had Your name before,
nor heard the way You sing it.
Nor stared into the Universe through eyes like These.
Nor laughed This way, nor felt the path that These te ars take.
Because I have not known These ecstasies
nor risen to These heights, nor experienced
every nuance of the Innocence
with which you create your lows,
nor how a Heart could grow so wide,
or break so easily
or Love
quite so unreasonably.”

THE NINTH CHANGE
HERE IS WHAT  I now understand: Some souls co -create experiences that are clearly (on a
human level) hurtful and damaging to themselves. Nobody can know why they are doing
this.
Maybe they  have come to their present incarnation in order to experience the “other
end” of something they have done to others in a previous lifetime.
Maybe they have come to allow other souls a chance to experience themselves in a
particular way.
Maybe they have co me to provide “players” or “actors” for some larger “scene” in the
whole drama of life, the acting out of which will permit huge numbers of humans to come
to a singular realization at once. (Those who were killed in the 9/11 tragedies come to
mind... as  do the millions murdered in the Holocaust.)
I cannot know, and I cannot pretend to know, the soul -agenda of the people who die of
starvation or are sexually abused or have suffered one loss after the other in their lives or
who in some other way have live d lives of struggle, pain, and sadness.
I can only keen for them, yearn for them to have their suffering end, notice the part of
me that wants no one  to suffer and nothing  to be abused, and, as Mary O’Malley advises, let
my heart break as I do —because as my heart breaks, my heart opens. I can only stand in
honor of them and of their sacrifice and of their journey and of the soul choices they have
made in order to take  their  journey.
Then I can decide who I am  in relationship to them.
Who am I, and who do I choose to be, in relationship to the starving children of the
world? Who am I, and who do I choose to be, in relationship to the oppressed and the
downtrodden? Who am I, a nd who do I choose to be, in relationship to the disaffected and
the disadvantaged, the disavowed and the disconnected, the dispossessed and the
disenfranchised? Who am I and who do I choose to be?
That  is the question. That  is what life gives me an opport unity to decide. And likewise,
who am I and who do I choose to be in relationship to my own incredibly good fortune, the
gifts I have been given, the talents I have been allowed to nurture, the kindnesses I have
been granted, the opportunities I have been offered, the intelligence I have been permitted
to possess, the success I have been able to experience?
What do I want to make of this life, and of my Sacred Self in relationship to it? That  is the
question. That  is what life gives me an opportunity to dec ide. And my life lived  is my
decision and my answer.
You are faced with the same opportunity. And this much I know. The universe is
conspiring in your favor. It is placing before you in every moment all of the right and
perfect people, circumstances, and s ituations with which to answer life’s only question:
Who am I?
Have you decided yet?  As I’m sure you know, there are two ways to decide anything. One way is to decide it,
and the other way is to not decide it. Yet always remember: Not to decide is to decid e.
The important thing is not to allow yourself to be defined by default. If you think you are
making no decision by making no decision, you are making a mistake. If you are not careful,
the biggest decision you will ever make could be the decision you nev er made.
So let’s be clear: all of life is a deciding. You are deciding... with every truth you
embrace, with every thought you birth, with every emotion you express, with every
experience you produce... you are deciding Who You Are and Who You Choos e to Be.
Every act is an act of self -definition.
All the changes in the collective experience of humanity have been created through the
collective experience of humanity —and all the changes in the singular experience of your
life have been created though t he singular experience of your life. I said it before and I’ll say
it again: Life is an energy that feeds off the energy of Life Itself. Life is self -nourishing and
self-creative. Life informs life about life through the process of life itself.
When a chan ge occurs in your life it is because something in your life was not working,
and you sought to change that. You may not think that you did —you may not have any
conscious awareness that you did —but you did, I promise you. You and those who co -
created with y ou.
Let me give you just one example of how this can occur.
A man comes home from work every day in a sour mood about life at the office. He has
come to dislike his job, despise his boss, disrespect his co -workers, and disparage the
whole company. He is a clever man, though, and since he does not yet have even the
slightest prospect of another job, he manages to cover his true feelings very well. He says
nothing untoward, offers no criticism, displays no antipathy, and is seen on the surface as
nothing but a loyal, model employee.
After months of this he is suddenly laid off. Downsized. Let go. He can’t figure it out.
What did he do to deserve this?  Nothing. The answer is, nothing. But he did do something to
create  it. His negative energies, inward and hidde n as they were, created the energy field
from which emerged the outcome with which he is abruptly faced.
Do you believe this? Do you believe that this is the way something like this can happen?
Trust me. This is exactly the way it


 may

night blindness, accumulation of calcium in tissues, and sometimes prostate
enlargement in men. Hemorrhoids due to blockage of the portal vein draining the
liver are often the result of this congestion.
The Liver-Gallbladder Flush
The importance of cleansing the debris from the liver and gall bladder, thus
keeping the bile free flowing, cannot be overemphasized. This can be effectively
accomplished by doing the Liver-Gall Bladder Flush (a form of which at one time was
widely used at the world famous Lahey Clinic in Boston, MA), which is necessary
even if one has had their gall bladder removed. The four basic active principles in this
procedure are:
A. Apple juice (high in malic acid) and ortho-phosphoric acid, which acts as a
solvent in the bile to weaken adhesions between solid globules.
B. Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate), taken by mouth and enema, which allows
magnesium to be absorbed into the bloodstream, relaxing smooth muscles. Large
solid particles which otherwise might create spasms are able to pass through a
relaxed bile duct.
C. Olive oil, unrefined, which stimulates the gall bladder and bile duct to contract
powerfully, thus expelling solid particles kept in storage for years.
D. Coffee enemas, which consist of a coffee solution retained in the colon. They
activate the liver to secrete its waste into the bile, enhancing bile flow and further
relaxing the bile duct muscle.
The Liver-Gall Bladder Flush is one of the most important procedures for persons
over 15 years of age. If one is above 15 years of age and his or her physician gives
approval, he or she should do this the first week of Metabolic Medicine's Cancer
Cure Program, and should, with his or her physician's approval, repeat it every 2
months. The steps in doing this are not difficult and are as follows:
For 5 days prior to the "Flush," consume as much apple juice or cider as the
appetite permits, in addition to regular meals. You may add a total of 90 drops of
Phos-A per quart of apple juice or cider each day. Nutritional supplements should
also be taken during this time. The first preference for juice would be freshly juiced
organic apples, and secondly, apple juice or cider (unsweetened and preferably
organic if possible) purchased either from the health food or grocery store. A person
should be sure to read the labels carefully and obtain a juice that has no additives
whatsoever.
87
Winning The Cancer War
If one is a severe hypoglycemic, is diabetic, or has difficulty tolerating the juice or
cider, he or she may take 20 drops of Phos-A with each meal (90 drops daily) in
water or some type of juice other than apple. Due to the high acidity, it is wise that
one brush his teeth or rinse out his mouth with M ilk of Magnesia or baking soda
solution after taking the ortho-phosphoric acid.
At noon on the sixth day, one should eat a normal lunch. Two hours after lunch, 1
or 2 tablespoons of Epsom salt (magnesium sulfate) dissolved in 1  to 3 ounces of
warm filtered, distilled, reverse osmosis water should be taken. The taste may be
objectionable to some. If so, the mixture can be followed by a little citrus juice if
desired (freshly squeezed if possible).
1. Four hours after lunch, one should take a 1-quart coffee enema with one-fourth (1/4)
cup of Epsom salt dissolved in it. This should be retained for 15 minutes and expelled.
The coffee should be made as strong as one can tolerate but no stronger than 6
tablespoons of ground coffee per quart of water.
2. Five hours after lunch take 1  tablespoon of Epsom salt, dissolved as the previous dose
(Step 3).
3. Six or seven hours after lunch, one may fast if desired. However, it is preferable to have
a fresh fruit salad with shipped cream, using as many fresh fruits or berries in season as
possible. The whipped cream is necessary to cause gall bladder contractions. Use
heavy, unpasteurized whipping cream as a dressing on the salad, whipped with a little
raw (unheated) honey if desired. One can eat as much as desired of the whipped-
cream-covered salad. If fresh fruit is unavailable, frozen berries such as strawberries,
blueberries, boysenberries, blackberries, raspberries, etc. can be used. These should
also be covered with whipped cream and a large portion eaten. Take citrus fruit or juice
after the cream and fruit meal, if desired. For hypoglycemics, the cream should balance
the fruit. However, each hypoglycemic should adjust the amount of salad eaten to his
individual tolerance.
4. At bedtime, there can be 1  of 3 choices (Note: Olive oil stimulates the gall bladder and
bile duct to contract powerfully, thus expelling solid particles kept in storage for years.
All juice should be freshly squeezed if possible):
A. Take one-half (1/2) cup of unrefined olive oil or 6 tablespoons of Formula F
followed by a small amount of orange, grapefruit, or lemon juice if the oil taste is
objectionable.
B. Take one-half (1/2) cup of unrefined olive oil or 6 tablespoons of Formula F
blended with one-half (1/2) cup of orange, grapefruit, or diluted lemon juice.
C. Take 4 tablespoons of unrefined olive oil or 4 tablespoons of Formula F
88
Winning The Cancer War
followed by 1  tablespoon of citrus juice every 30 minutes until 6 ounces of
oil have been consumed. This choice is preferable for those who are
unusually weak or who have had gall bladder problems in the past. It has
been found helpful to rinse the mouth with an alcohol base drink like
Sherry to cut out the residue of the oil taste. If an alcohol base drink is
unobtainable, try a natural carbonated drink, or club soda. (Do not
swallow the alcohol drink or the carbonated drink.)
D. (Note: If one should vomit during the consumption of the oil and juice, the
procedure should be continued until it is finished. It is not necessary to
make up for the amount that was vomited. Nausea felt during this process
usually indicates stimulation of the gall bladder and/or liver.)
5. Immediately upon finishing the oil and juice (or while taking it), one should go
to bed and lie on the right side with the right knee drawn up toward the chin
for 30 minutes before going to sleep. This encourages the oil to drain from the
stomach, helping contents of the gall bladder and/or liver to move into the
small intestine.
6. If one feels quite ill during the night, another strong coffee enema with one-
fourth (1/4) cup of Epsom salt dissolved in it may be taken.
7. If there is a strong feeling of nausea the following morning, one should try to
remain in bed until it subsides somewhat. Vomiting should not be forced.
8. Upon arising, one must take another strong coffee enema with Epsom salt in it
or, 1  hour before breakfast, take 1  tablespoon of Epsom salt dissolved in 1  to 3
ounces of warm distilled or filtered water.
9. If one continues to feel nauseous or very sore in the upper abdomen even after
the enema, a light diet of sprouts, fruit (raw or steamed), yogurt or kefir, and
freshly extracted vegetable juices (especially with beet greens in them) should
be resumed. If one finds that the Metabolic Formulas cause discomfort
immediately after the flush, they may be omitted for three days.
Helpful Hints
1. Taking one hydrochloric acid tablet at bedtime w ill help reduce any nausea
during the night.
2. If you have a tendency to get nauseated from the oil, take 2 tablespoons of
Aloe Vera juice after your doses of oil and citrus juice.
89
Winning The Cancer War
3. Placing a hot water bottle over the liver area (under the right ribcage) during
the night also helps relieve nausea.
Note: One should not be frightened by the above references to nausea, vomiting,
soreness of the abdomen, etc. Chances are that the symptoms won't be severe
enough to cause vomiting or soreness of the abdomen, as this happens only very
rarely. Many people complete this procedure with minimal discomfort, and nearly
everyone feels much better after completing it. Flushing the liver and gall bladder in
the manner described (if the gall bladder is present) stimulates and cleans these
organs as no other process does.
Oftentimes, persons suffering for years from gallstones, lack of appetite, biliousness,
backaches, nausea, and a host of other complaints w ill find gallstone-type objects in
the stool the day following the flush. These objects are light to dark green in color,
very irregular in shape, gelatinous in texture, and of sizes varying from "grape seed"
size to "ch

He keeps his marriage a secret from his mother, because he is afraid
it might “kill her” or more aptly, he might kill her. He maintains a
separate apartment with all of the household trimmings for the sole
purpose of meeting with his eighty-five-year-old mother every
Sunday. She does not know that he is married and owns his own
home where he lives six days a week. He plays this little game out
of fear and guilt about being married to a “Shiksa.” Although he is
a fully grown man who is highly successful in his own professional
world, he is still controlled by his mother. Each day he talks to her
from his office and lives out his bachelor fantasy.
Parental-and family-associated guilt is the most common strategy
for keeping a rebellious person in tow. The examples above are only
a small sample of the multitude of statements and techniques for
helping a son/daughter to choose guilt (present-moment immobility
over a past event) as the price of genealogy.
Lover- and Spouse-Related Guilt
The “If you loved me” guilt is one way to manipulate a lover. This
tactic is particularly useful when one wants to pun-96 / Your Erroneous Zonesish a partner for some particular behavior. As if love were contingent
upon the right kind of behavior. Whenever one person doesn’t
measure up, guilt can be used to get him back into the fold. He must
feel guilty for not having loved the other.
Grudges, long silences and hurtful looks are useful methods of
engendering guilt. “I’m not talking to you, that’ll fix you” or “Don’t
come near me, how do you expect me to be loving after what you’ve
done?” This is a commonly employed tactic in the case of straying
behavior on the part of one partner.
Often, years after an incident, an action is recalled to help the
other person to choose present-moment guilt. “But don’t forget what
you did in 1951” or “How could I ever trust you again, when you
let me down before?” In this way one partner can manipulate the
other’s present with references to the past. If one partner has finally
forgotten it, the other can periodically bring it up to keep the guilt
feelings about the past behavior current.
Guilt is useful in making a love partner conform to the other’s
demands and standards of behavior. “If you were responsible, you
would have called me” or “That’s the third time I had to empty the
garbage, I guess you just refuse to do your share.” The goal? Getting
one partner to do what the other wants him to. The method? Guilt.
Children-Inspired Guilt
The parental guilt game can be reversed. Guilt can be a two-way
street and children are just as apt to use it in manipulating their
parents as the reverse.
If a child realizes that his parent cannot cope with his being un-
happy and will feel guilty for being a bad parent, the child will often
try to use that guilt to manipulate the parent. A tantrum in the su-
permarket may produce the desired candy. “Sally’s father lets her
do it.” Therefore Sally’s father is a good father and you’re not. “You
don’t love me. If you didTHE USELESS EMOTIONS—GUILT AND WORRY  / 97you wouldn’t treat me this way.” And the ultimate, “I must be ad-
opted. My real parents wouldn’t treat me like this.” All these state-
ments carry the same message. You as a parent ought to feel guilty
for treating me, your child, in this way.
Of course, children learn this guilt-producing behavior by
watching the adults in their world use them to get the things that
they want. Guilt is not a natural behavior. It is a learned emotional
response that can only be used if the victim teaches the exploiter
that he is vulnerable. Children know when you are susceptible. If
they constantly remind you of things that you’ve done, or haven’t
done, for the purpose of getting what they want, then they have
learned the guilt trick. If your children use these tactics, they picked
them up somewhere. Very likely, from you.
School-Inspired Guilt
Teachers are superlative guilt originators, and children, since they
are most suggestible, are excellent subjects for manipulation. These
are some of the guilt messages that produce present-moment unhap-
piness for young people:
“Your mother is really going to be disappointed in you.”
“You should be ashamed of yourself for getting a C—a
smart boy like you.”
“How could you hurt your parents like that, after all
they’ve done for you? Don’t you know how badly they
want you to go to Harvard?”
“You failed the test because you didn’t study, now you’ll
have to live with yourself.”
Guilt is often used in schools to make children learn certain things
or behave in certain ways. And remember that even as an adult you
are a product of those schools.98 / Your Erroneous ZonesChurch-Related Guilt
Religion is often used to produce guilt and therefore manipulate
behavior. Here God is generally the one you have let down. In some
cases the message is that you will be kept out of heaven for having
behaved badly.
“If you loved God, you wouldn’t behave that way.”
“You won’t get into heaven unless you repent for your
sins.”
“You should feel bad because you haven’t gone to church
every week, and if you feel bad enough, perhaps you’ll be
forgiven.”
“You’ve disobeyed one of God’s rules and you should feel
ashamed of yourself.”
Other Institutional Guilt Producers
Most prisons operate on the guilt theory. That is, if a person sits
long enough thinking how bad he’s been, he will be better for the
guilt. Jail sentences for nonviolent crimes such as tax evasion, traffic
citations, civil infractions and the like are examples of this mind-set.
The fact that a strikingly large percentage of inmates return to law-
breaking behavior has done nothing to challenge this belief.
Sit in a jail and feel bad for what you’ve done. This policy is so
expensive and useless that it defies logical explanation. The illogical
explanation, of course, is that guilt  is such an integral part of our
culture, that it is the backbone of our criminal justice system. Rather
than have civil law breakers help society or repay their debts, they
are reformed through guilt-producing incarceration that has no be-
nefit to anyone, least of all the offender.
No amount of guilt, however large, will change past behav-THE USELESS EMOTIONS—GUILT AND WORRY  / 99ior. Moreover, jails are not places where new legal choices are
learned. Instead, they encourage a repetition of illegal behavior by
embittering the prisoner. (The policy of imprisoning dangerous
criminals to protect others is a different issue, and not under discus-
sion here.)
In our society tipping is a practice that has come to reflect not su-
perior service but the guilt of the person served. Effective waiters
and waitresses, cab drivers, bell boys, and other serving employees
have learned that most people cannot handle guilt for not behaving
in the correct way and will tip the standard percentage regardless
of the quality of service received. Thus blatant hand extending, nasty
comments and looks that are designed to wither are all used to
produce guilt and, fast on its heels, the big tip.
Littering, smoking and other unacceptable behavior may be things
that you can be made to feel guilty about. Perhaps you’ve dropped
a cigarette or a paper cup. A stern look by a stranger can send you
into paroxysms of guilt for having behaved in such a crass fashion.
Instead of feeling guilty about something you have already done,
why not simply resolve not to behave in an antisocial manner again.
Dieting is an area that is loaded with guilt. The dieter eats one
cookie and feels bad for a day for having been weak for a moment.
If you are striving to lose weight and give in to counterproductive
behavior, you can learn from it and work at being more effective in
your present moment. But to feel guilty and full of self-reproach is
a waste of time, for, if you feel that way for very long, you are likely
to repeat the excess eating, as your own neurotic way out of your
dilemma.
Sexual Expression Guilt
Perhaps the area where guilt flourishes best in our society is in
the realm of sex. We have already seen how parents engender guilt
in children for sexual acts or thoughts. Adults feel no less100 / Your Erroneous Zonesguilty about matters of sex. People sneak into porno films so that
others won’t know how bad they’ve been. Some people can’t admit
to enjoying oral sex and often feel guilty for even thinking about it.
Sexual fantasies are also effective guilt producers. Many feel bad
about having such thoughts and deny their existence even in private,
or in therapy. In fact, if I had to locate a guilt center in the body, I
would place it in the crotch.
This is only a brief listing of the cultural influences that conspire
to help you choose guilt. Now let’s take a look at the psychological
payoffs for feeling guilt. Keep in mind that whatever the dividend,
it is bound to be
