for proper tissue function, growth and repair.
High calcium supplementation will push out or deplete your phosphorus
levels.
Calcium cannot be properly utilized without parathyroid hormones.
Stone formation, including bone spurs, will result if you supplement
anything but plant calcium, especially when the parathyroid is weak.

Organically-grown produce contains higher levels of some essential
minerals than does conventionally (non-organically) grown produce, and
appears to contain lower levels of toxic heavy metals. Even if modern food
practices did not affect nutrition (which they do), all minerals that humans
need for optimal health do not exist uniformly in soils. Soils that are deficient
in certain minerals can result in low concentrations of major or trace minerals
in drinking water and plant crops, which contribute to marginal or deficient
dietary intake. Luckily, we are able to draw from a wide variety of fruits,
vegetables, nuts and herbs from all parts of the world.
MAJOR MINERALS

Calcium (Ca)
Acid/Alkaline
: Alkaline-forming
Types
: protein bound Ca. 46%; diffusable Ca. 6.5%; ionized Ca. 47.5%
Food sources
: Kelp, sesame seeds, dark leafy green vegetables, carrots,
oranges, almonds, broccoli, papaya, sunflower seeds, walnuts,
cashews, Brazil nuts, tofu, bone meal, brown rice, and most fruits
and vegetables.
Note
: Coffee, commercial teas, carbonated drinks, (soda pops, etc.),
marijuana, excess salt, cigarettes, refined sugars, alcohol, and
chemical diuretics all inhibit or “pull” calcium out of bone and
tissues.Uses in the body
: Calcium is the most abundant mineral (metal) in your
body. Necessary for bone, cartilage, tendons and connective tissue
strength. (Used in bone matrix.) Assists the actuation of many
enzymes including pancreatic. Works with neuro-transmissions.
Used in ATP,
Adenosine Triphosphate release (cell energy reserves).
99% of the body’s Ca is located in the bones and teeth. Plays a role
in blood clotting. One of many cellular transporters.
Deficiencies
: A lack of utilization is epidemic. Utilization requires
parathyroid/thyroid hormones and alkalization.
Short term deficiencies
: Muscle cramping and spasms, pounding
heartbeat, loss of sleep, irritability, tooth decay, periodontal disease,
softened bones, nervousness, back and leg cramps, brittle bones,
connective tissue weakness including varicose and spider veins,
hemorrhoids, prolapsed conditions of organs and skin, petechiae, hot
flashes, hot and cold syndrome, and heart arrhythmias. Plays a role
in muscular contraction. Use is regulated by parathyroid hormone
and vitamin D. Builds bones and teeth. Normalizes heart action,
nerve irritability, blood coagulation, normalizes metabolism. Calcium
neutralizes excessive serum histamines. Increased calcium
consumption can increase calcitonin production by the thyroid gland
(C-cells). This actually inhibits bone reabsorption, thus creating the
opposite effect of rebuilding your bones. Lead interferes with
calcium utilization.
Long term deficiencies
: Osteoporosis, scoliosis, rickets and diseases
involving the loss of calcium from the bones or the failure of
growing bones to have enough calcium for strength and proper
growth. Stunted growth. Also, arthritis and depression.
Toxicity
: Acidosis, bone spurs, kidney stones, stenosis issues, and
calcium deposits in tissues. Also possibly hypertension, confusion,
nausea and vomiting.
Carbon (C)
Acid/Alkaline
: Acid-forming
Food sources
: Air, carbohydrates, sugars, fruits and vegetables, nuts,
olives and avocados.
Uses in the body
: Main source of energy. A component ofcarbohydrates and building blocks of fats and amino acids.
Necessary for teeth, connective tissue, skin, hair and nails.
Chlorine (Chloride) (Cl)
Acid/Alkaline
: Acid-forming
Food sources
: Most fruits and vegetables: coconut, avocados, dates,
turnips, lettuces, kale, kelp/dulse, celery, tomatoes, potatoes, apricots,
orange juice, pineapple, watercress, raw white cabbage, spinach,
asparagus, cucumbers, parsnips, carrots, onions. In cooked dried
beans and peas, and sea salt, etc.
Toxic sources
: Water supplies
Uses in the body
: An electrolyte, along with sodium and potassium.
Affects blood, nerves, epithelium. Aids digestion and elimination,
normalizes osmotic pressure in blood and tissues. Helps maintain
normal heart function, acid-base balance and water balance.
Increases capacity of blood to carry carbon dioxide to lungs for
excretion. Helps to cleanse both the intestines and body of toxins.
Produces the normal acid environment in stomach. (This aids in
absorption of iron and vitamin B12.)
Deficiency
: Disturbed digestion, water retention issues, weight loss.
Toxicity
: Very toxic in even slightly higher amounts. Symptoms are
weakness, confusion and coma.
Hydrogen (H)
Acid/Alkaline
: Alkaline-forming
Food sources
: All foods, especially carbohydrates and fats. Sugars, fruits
and vegetables (especially carrots, celery, spinach, tomatoes and
cabbage).
Uses in the body
: Blood; all cells.
Magnesium (Mg)
Acid/Alkaline
: Alkaline-forming
Food sources
: All fruits and vegetables, especially dark leafy greens,
seaweeds, nuts, seeds, dried fruits, potatoes, sesame seeds, alfalfa,figs, brown rice, kelp, pineapple, honey, celery, whole-grain
products, almonds, avocados, bananas, apples, peaches, lima beans,
black-eyed peas, wheat germ, brown rice.
Toxic sources
: Water
Uses in the body
: Strengthens muscles and nerve tissues. Activates many
enzymes, especially in carbohydrate metabolism. Needed for proper
bone and teeth formation. Conditions liver and glands. Stimulates
elimination. May help combat stress, maintain muscle contractions
and aid in adaptation to cold, and regulation of normal heart rhythm.
May reduce effects of lead poisoning and reduce kidney stones.
Also, blood albumen.
Note
: Alcohol, diuretics, emotional or physical stress, diarrhea, zinc, and
fluoride increase the need for magnesium.
Deficiency
: Symptoms may include diarrhea, fatigue, calcium depletion,
and heart arrhythmias. Also, soft and porous bones, poor digestion,
GI upsets, fatigue, sleep disturbances, irritability, confusion,
cramping and spasms, tachycardia, nervousness, kidney stones,
convulsions, poor complexion. A severe magnesium deficiency may
result in coronary heart disease, mental confusion, and blood clot
formation.
Toxicity
: Severe nausea and vomiting, extremely low blood pressure,
extreme muscle weakness, difficulty breathing and heartbeat
irregularity.
Nitrogen (N)
Acid/Alkaline
: Acid-forming
Food sources
: Proteins (Amino Acids). Dominating foods: nuts, seeds,
alfalfa, green leafy vegetables.
Toxic sources
: Meats
Uses in the body
: Acts like and is the main element of a protein and the
mineral phosphorus. Muscles, cartilage, tissue, tendons, ligaments,
lean flesh.
Deficiency
: Abnormal growth, thinness, neuromuscular issues, and
death.
Toxicity
: AcidosisOxygen (O)

mushrooms, carrots, nuts (pecans, almonds, etc.), whole grain
products, dried fruit, legumes.
Toxic sources
: Meat, grains, intestinal products and wastes, phosphate
mining, soaps, phosphate additives in carbonated drinks, etc.
Uses in the body
: Phosphorus is essential for calcification of bone (85%
of your body’s pH is in your skeletal system). Used in many enzyme
processes including metabolism. Controls the activities of most
hormones and many vitamins. A factor in carbohydrate, fat and
protein metabolism. Organic phosphates are a part of all cellular
structures and many of their functions. Part of ATP (Adenosine
Triphosphate), which is a cell’s power company. Used in the
oxidation of sugars for the formation of ATP.
Builds bones, teeth,
blood, brain and hair. Metabolism of fats and carbohydrates.
Transporter of fatty acids.
Deficiency
: Leads to bone pain and poor bone formation, osteoporosis,
poor memory, tissue weakness, prolapsed conditions, fatigue,
irritability, poor growth, rickets, skin sensitivity, decreased appetite
and weight. General weakness. Excessive amounts of phosphorus
can occur from prolonged and excessive intake of non-absorbable
antacids, high consumption of soft drinks,


rition

THE ENZYME COMPLEX
   I adhere to the philosophy that both the living organism and
its enzymes are inhabited by a vital principle or life energy
which is separate and distinct from the caloric energy
liberated from food by enzyme action. I would not like to
think, when a person talks to me face to face, that it is the
energy of the potato he has just digested that is producing his whimsical remarks and animated conversation. I prefer to
believe that complex emotions, such as joy, sorrow, and
anger, are powered by the same vital energy that the enzyme
complex utilizes in metabolizing food—not by the caloric
energy of a potato or other food. Emotions are capable of being expressed even in starving persons where there is no
food in the body to supply caloric energy.
   I define the enzyme complex in biological rather than
chemical terms. The enzyme complex harbors a protein
carrier inhabited by a vital energy factor. For almost a hundred years chemistry has maintained that enzymes work
by their mere presence, without being used up in the process.
It has implied that the energy powering enzyme activity is
derived, not from the enzymes, but solely from the substrate
(the substance being changed or metabolized). If that is true, where does the energy come from to trigger or start the
reaction before the energy of the substrate is released to
become available? Chemistry concedes that only the living
organism can make enzymes, but it implies it can do this
without paying a price. Official chemistry maintains, at least by implication, that enzymes are mere chemical flunkies; that
they are recklessly expendable. The Food Enzyme Concept
holds that organisms endow enzymes with a vital activity
factor that is exhaustible. Also that the capacity of a living
organism to make enzymes—the enzyme potential—is
limited and exhaustible.
   The chemical conception that enzymes work by their mere
presence, without being used up in the process, is based upon
the epochal work of O'Sullivan and Tompson on invertase,
published in 1890. Nowhere in this wo rk of almost a hundred pages do the authors state that enzymes work by their mere
presence and are not used up in the process. O'Sullivan and
Tompson took a tolerant attitude toward the definition of
Roberts, Lumlian Lectures (1880), that the living body imparts a definite amount of vital force to enzymes, and that
this force acts upon a substrate until it is exhausted.
   Enzymes represent the life element which is biologically
recognized and can be measured in terms of enzyme activity.
Our easiest measurement is a lack, for various chemical
reactions fail to occur without enzymes: a radiated or cooked
potato will fail to sprout. Thought of for years as catalysts, enzymes are much more than these inert substances. Catalysts
work by chemical action only, while enzymes function by
both biological and chemical action. Catalysts do not contain
the "life element," which is measured as a kind of radiation
which enzymes emit. This radiation cannot be measured simply by any ordinary device, but it can be demonstrated by
biological means and other methods. The following are means
of identifying this hidden entity: The Mitogenetic Rays of
Gurwitsch, Kirlian Electro-Magnetic Photography, Rothen's
Enzyme Action at a Distance, and Visual Micro Observation of Working Enzymes. Enzymes contain proteins and some
contain vitamins which can and have been synthesized by
chemists. However, the "life principle" or "activity factor" of
the enzyme has never been synthesized. The proteins in
enzymes serve merely as carriers of enzyme activity factors. We can summarize that enzymes are protein carriers charged
with vital energy factors, just as your car battery consists of
metal plates charged with electrical energy. The objectionable idea that enzymes are not exhaustible was coined by others
later and ignores the biological evidence that is the topic of this book, Enzyme Nutrition.
ENZYMES AND DISEASE
   The human race is at least half sick. In a biological sense,
there are no completely healthy people living on the
conventional diet. Even those young adults who feel fit have
health defects. Some have dental caries, thin hair,
approaching baldness, acne or allergies, headaches, impaired vision, constipation, and so on, ad infinitum. And these are
just superficial phenomena that the individuals can spot
themselves. Medical examination finds more. How many
ailments afflict the human race? One hundred? Five hundred?
One thousand? Are we more expert in breeding disease than are wild animals? Can you name even one species of wild
animal afflicted with a hundred diseases? Fifty? Twenty-five?
Or even one? We must exclude "wild" animals that feast at
our
garbage dum ps. To make themselves disease- proof, do wild animals perform some special ceremony we don't know
about? We shall see.
   There are three classes of enzymes: metabolic enzymes,
which run our bodies; digestive enzymes, which digest our
food; and food enzymes from raw foods, which start food
digestion. Our bodies—all our organs and tissues—are run by metabolic enzymes. These enzyme workers take proteins,
fats, and carbohydrates (starches, sugars, etc.), and structure
them into healthy bodies, keeping everything working
properly. Every organ and tissue has its own particular
metabolic enzymes to do specialized work. One authority made an investigation and found 98 distinct enzymes working
in the arteries, each with a particular job to do. The liver has
numerous different enzymes working. No one has ever
investigated how many specific enzymes are needed to run the heart, brain, lungs, kidneys, etc.
   Since good health depends on all of these metabolic
enzymes doing an excellent job, we must be sure that nothing interferes with the body making enough of them. A shortage
could mean trouble, many times serious. Modern research is
implicating enzymes in all of our activities. Even thinking
involves some enzyme activity. In 1930, 80 enzymes were
known; in 1947, 200; in 1957, 660; in 1962, 850; and by 1968, science had identified 1300 of them. If you wanted to
find out how many enzymes are known today, you might
have to hire a specialist full-time to make a survey. And
although thousands of enzymes are known, many more
reactions have been identified for which the enzymes responsible are not yet known. Hundreds of metabolic
enzymes are necessary to carry on the work of the body—to repair damage and decay, and heal diseases.
   Digestive enzymes have only three main jobs: digesting
protein, carbohydrate, and fat. Proteases are enzymes that
digest protein; amylases digest carbohydrate, and Upases
digest fat. Nature's plan calls for food enzymes to help with
digestion instead of forcing the body's digestive enzymes to
carry the whole load. If food enzymes do some of the work,
according to the Law of Adaptive Secretion of Digestive Enzymes, the enzyme potential can allot less activity to
digestive enzymes, and have much more to give to the
hundreds of metabolic enzymes that run the entire body. If
food enzymes did some of the work, the enzyme potential
would not be facing impending bankruptcy, as it is now in the bodies of millions of people on the minus diet—food minus
its enzymes. Our enzyme potential has a problem somewhat
similar to a checking account which could become
dangerously deficient if not continually replenished. THE FOOD ENZYME CONCEPT
   The Food Enzyme Concept introduces a new way of
looking at disease. It heralds a revolution in our understanding of disease processes. According to the Food
Enzyme Concept, enzymes possess biological, as well as
chemical, properties. When ingested, the enzymes in raw food, or supplementary enzymes, result in a significant degree
of digestion, lowering the drain on the organism's own
enzyme potential. The heat used in cooking destroys all food
enzymes and forces the organism to produce more enzymes,
thus enlarging digestive organs, especially the pancreas. When an excessive amount of digestive enzymes is made, the
enzyme potential may be unable to produce an adequate
quantity of metabolic enzymes to repair body organs and fight
disease. Are digestive enzymes being wasted? The Food
Enzyme Concept furnishes conclusive proof that in most people digestive enzymes are being used up with reckless
abandon. Although the body makes less than two dozen
digestive enzymes, it uses up more of its enzyme potential
supplying these than it uses to make the hundreds of
metabolic enzymes needed to keep all of the organs and tissues functioning with their diversified activities. The
digestive enzymes of civilized humans are infinitely stronger
and more concentrated in enzyme activity than any of the
metabolic enzymes—more concentrated than any other
enzyme combination found in nature. Human saliva and pancreatic juice are loaded with enzyme activity. There is no
evidence that wild animals, living on natural raw diets, have
digestive enzyme juices even remotely approaching the
strength of those found in civilized human beings.
THE LAW OF ADAPTIVE SECRETION
OF DIGESTIVE ENZYMES
   If the human organism must devote a huge portion of its
enzyme potential to making digestive enzymes, it spells
trouble for the whole body because there is a strain on
production of metabolic enzymes and there may not be
enough enzyme potential to go around. There is competition
between the two classes of enzymes. Does science


 are:
• All bacteria can very quickly change according to their environment, not only
from generation to generation, but in a single lifetime. This means t hat a simple
change of conditions (bacteria food supply) can create a new type of bacteria in
a few minutes! Friendly acidophilus in our intestines could quickly be come any
other bacteria - if its environment changes. Any particular bacterium can
become any other bacterium and revert back again, if the conditions  (food
supply) change
• Bacteria need food  to survive and multiply. No food – no bacteria. Bacteria can
only feed on dead organic matter. (There is no bacteria known to eat any living
cells). If organism does not provide the necessary conditions for bacte ria to
multiply (there is no dead organic matter and toxins) such an organism  is not
susceptible to bacteria invasion and it does not get sick at all. Th erefore if you
inject bacteria to induce a disease – only 40-60% of the weakest organisms will
develop a disease and among those who do, there will be several types of
different symptoms ( different diseases ), depending on the particular
combination of pre-existing conditions  for each individual organism.
• Given time, bacteria can learn and adapt themselves to extreme  conditions, by
entering into a hidden state, undetectable by conventional types of mi croscopes.
When you restore favorable conditions (food supply) once more, bacteria
appears and starts multiplying again. In modern medicine such bacter ia are
known as “drug resistant”.

With regards to viruses, most of the “facts” made available t o the general public are
simply not true. Viruses are not alive.  This is official. They cannot move, do not have
any metabolism, cannot multiply and do not have any attribute whatsoe ver associated
with living organisms. They are simply very complex organic compounds  (nucleic
acids), created and modified as a result of the activity of surr ounding living cells. Some
of the above compounds (viruses) could be quite toxic. Bacteria can use viruses as
food. Our cells use and produce viruses in the metabolic processes.

The above facts indicate, that ever-present viruses and living bacte ria in our body are in
perfect symbiosis with it in a healthy state (the fact wide ly accepted by medical
science) and therefore they are not the cause of disease.

When we are healthy, there is hardly any food for bacteria i n our body, except in the
intestines. Bacteria live there happily, helping us greatly to break down and absorb
complex food as well as to dispose toxins. If our diet is healthy, we have only
“friendly” bacteria, which are perfectly adapted to feed on and br eak down such food
for us.
  10  All bacteria are under the strict control of our mind-body syste m. Medicine says that
our “immune system” is functioning properly.

However, when our body becomes damaged, poisoned, overloaded with toxins, it
makes an effort to dispose of and/or break down dead matter and tox ic deposits,
wherever they may be accumulated. Modern medicine knows very wel l which toxins
are accumulated in which organ. For example benzene goes directly and accumulates in
the thymus gland. Bacteria from the intestines are allowed to enter the  blood stream and
are transported to the disposal site. Very quickly these bacter ia adapt to the local
conditions. The bacteria most adequate to these conditions is created a nd toxic/dead
organic matter is transformed by it, hopefully for easier disposal by the body.

When the toxic sites are large, the proportion of bacteria explodes. Di fferent types of
bacteria will be adapted to the current condition in this part of the  body. Bacteria in
large amounts may create additional toxins which usually do not help us  and cause
certain symptoms, enabling us sometimes to identify their type. In this scenario,
bacteria are not the cause of disease, but they simply take the advantage of any initial
pre-existing toxic state  in our body. Killing bacteria with antibiotics sometimes gives
relief, because you gave your body more time to restore the balanc e, reducing the rate
at which toxins are neutralized and excreted.

Medicine has already tried the concept of sterile (bacteria free) body. It was shown
beyond doubt, that it does not lead to a good health at all.

In view of the above, the statement that viruses or bacteria cause  disease is therefore no
more accurate, than saying that files cause garbage. (For mor e details, read the book by
Arther Baker, listed in the reference)

  11  The mind

Very little attention in the medical literature is paid to the  functioning of a perfectly
healthy mind in a perfectly healthy body. I highlighted the mind here with a r eason. To
be exact, conventional medicine largely ignores the mind as the ult imate manager of all
functions of the body, and therefore ignores the role of the patient’s ultimate command
over his own body.

The current scientific model of the human body is electrochemi cal (biochemical). The
body is divided into many different organs, each producing and/or accept ing various
biochemical compounds. The nervous system somehow (?) produces electrica l
impulses controlling the lot. These electrical impulses cause va rious organs to produce
complex chemical reactions. Going deeper into details, DNA, the ch emical messengers
theory etc. the picture becomes complex beyond comprehension, and still  does not
explain the wonderful functioning of our body. Medicine accepts, that the  “program”
controlling all vital functions of the body is embedded in our “subconscious mind” (the
“sub” probably meaning that this part is considered lower or less important).

The orthodox science treat our conscious thinking mind as the highest possibl e, and yet
they all admit that using it, they cannot comprehend and explain how thei r own bodies
function in detail and why.

In contrast, yogis for thousands of years demonstrate that it is pos sible to control every
function of their body (including the stopping of the heart for a couple of  days) by
learning to attain higher  states of consciousness.

  12  Medical education

Students of medicine, our future doctors, are forced to memorize an enor mous quantity
of bits and pieces  of information, the most important being the names of chemicals and
hormones and their relationship to various organs and functions of the body.

I highlighted the “bits and pieces”, because they do not form a com plete picture of the
way our body functions. To a serious scientist their collection pose s more questions
than it provides answers.

After young doctors complete their University studies and their initial supervised
practice, they practice on their own, continuing their “education” during  their working
life.

Let us analyse, how they update their knowledge. Critical study of Medical Journals
and complex results of clinical research requires time and signi ficant effort from
doctors for which they are not being paid. Another source of new informa tion is that
concerning new drugs manufactured by chemical companies. This inf ormation is
simple and quick to absorb: it comes with short and complete instructio ns on how to
prescribe drugs to patients, details of dosages etc. It also c omes with “free samples” of
drugs to make the doctor familiar with the name of the drug, by bein g always at hand.
Well-informed drug sales representative would offer a doctor pers onal assistance in
acquiring familiarity with any new drug. Each year a mult itude of new drugs is
introduced to medical practice in this way. After several years  of medical practice, most
of the doctor’s new knowledge comes from such sales representati ves, who usually do
not have any medical education at all.

  13  Progress

Previous chapter in this book provided quite some criticism of the pract ice of
conventional medicine.

The indisputable progress in many areas of medical and other rela ted sciences was yet
to be mentioned. This would include among others: the life saving emerg ency
treatments, technology and instrumentation for chemical and biological  analysis and the
breathtaking progress on the frontiers of “mind-body” medicine.

Deepak Chopra, MD, a pioneer of modern mind-body medicine, is the author of
numerous inspiring and mind-bending books, which are listed in the Reference s. In his
books, he illustrates the process of mind and body interaction drawing up on many
clinical examples as well as research results from medica l science and modern quantum
physics. He has met and continues to meet with the considerable opposit ions from his
colleagues- conservative medical scientists, who insist that the y should see everything
under their microscope to believe it. Deepak Chopra points out, that me dical science
simply ignore monumental advances made in other sciences, mainly  in the Quantum
Physics.

Not only do microscopes have limited resolution, and the visible band width of light is
extremely narrow (0.4-0.7 micrometers), but even if we could separ ately look at each
molecule, atom or an elementary particle – there is exactly not hing to look at!
Physicists have found quite a long time ago, that any elementary particle or atom is just
a form of energy


 only
assuring us that Mr. Dalal had no hope of recovery from his infarction. A
week later this prediction was confounded when an extremely frail Mr.
Dalal and his wife appeared again on the street. Mrs. Dalal, very much
alive, waved from beneath her blue sari, looking as cheerful as ever, if
somehow changed.
My grandmother waited, and only a few months passed before Mrs. Dalal
fell sick. A minor cold turned to pneumonia, and in those days when
penicillin was not so readily available or believed in by common people,
she died, suddenly, in the middle of the night.
“Like Rama and Sita,” my grandmother murmured, wearing a look on
her face that could be mistaken for triumph. She described the last scene
between husban d and wife, when Mr. Dalal took off his prayer beads and
laid them  tender ly around his wife’ s neck before she passed. “That is a real
love story,” she said. “Only love can work such a miracle.”“No,” I proteste d, standing impatiently by the stove. “Mrs. Dalal is dead.
You call that love, but now they both have nothing.” My father had already
told me, in his measured, clinical voice, that Mr. Dalal’ s survival had been a
fluke, not a miracle. He could be expected to die within the year.
“You just don’t understand,” my grandmother reproached me. “Who do
you think gave Mrs. Dalal her wish? When she loved her husband, she was
loving God, and now she is with him. Every real love story is a love story
with God.”
An old woman with a cosmic mind is a good place to begin to talk about
love. For this story isn’t about Mrs. Dalal. A Westerner would be skeptical
that she had achieved anything of value by dying for her husban d, assuming
that was what  had happened. The point of the story lies in my
grandmother ’s deepest beliefs:
A man and a woman can r eflect divine love in their love for each other.
Loving your beloved is the way you love God.
Human love survives death.
If you could hold the same beliefs, your love would contain a profound
power and meaning. Actually, I shouldn’ t deprive Mrs. Dalal of her own
meaning. The neighbors whispe red that she was murmuring “Rama” when
she died. Anyon e who can say God’ s name at such a moment might well be
wooing her lover. Looking back, I now realize that for her, death itself was
a healing. How many modern people in the W est can say the same?
Despite the fact that love is important to everyone, few of us could deny
that love is in a crisis—no deeper crisis exists. Either love isn’t a powerful
enough force to save us from our darker nature or something has happened
to turn us away from love. Perhaps love was never the answ er we were
looking for.
Any of these possibilities could be true. If they are, however, to be
human is truly tragic. In his last major work, Civilization and Its
Discontents,  Sigmund Freud painted a picture of human nature that is
grimly unloving. Humans, he asserted, are motivated by an instinct for
sexual gratification that society can barely keep in check. They  are born to
take sadistic satisfaction in the plight of enemies; they will use ruthlessviolence to obtain money, powe r, and sex; and only the threat of retribution
from someone more powerful keeps this violence in check. According to
Freud, Christ’ s injunction to love thy neighbor as thyself is a psychological
impossibility.
Every adult has seen enough of life to agree at least partially with this
devastating assessment, and modern psychology, by and large, is based on
it. The famous Milgram pain experiments from Yale in the 1950s
demonstrated that when ordere d to give electric shocks to strangers in a
laboratory settin g, average people would follow such orders willingly, even
when the subjects screamed in agony and begged them to quit. Where is
love in all of this?
The dir ect experience of spirit is the only lasting foundation for love.
Despite all the evidence to the contrary, in some profound way we were
created for love to the very depths of the human soul. This spiritual vision
of huma n nature  has prevailed against all odds. Its roots go back in India
more than two thousand years to the Vedic scriptures. Veda is Sans krit for
“truth” or “know ledge.” The hymns of the Rig Veda are considered to be
humanity’ s oldest devotional expression, but as it expanded into thousands
and thousands of scriptures, Veda continued to emphasize the same point:
the human being is a mirror of God. Our being and God’ s Being are one.
In the Vedic view we are not passive observers of reality but creators, as
God is. The mask of matter disguises our true nature, which is pure
awareness, pure creativity, pure spirit. Like light streaming from a bonfire,
reality streams from us, and our choice is to emanate love or non-love.
Contrary to Freud’ s dark view, the Vedas say that it is much more natural
for us to create from love than non-love. They declare that humans “are
born in bliss, sustained in bliss, and return to bliss again after death.” This is
a drastic shift in perception from modern psychology, and yet to be truly in
love always brings a new perception—everyone can validate the sudden
ecstasy and bliss that makes romance so sweet. But to have a complete
vision of love means being willing to under go a much more total shift of
perception.
When you per ceive yourself as spirit, you will not simply feel love—you will be love.In spiritu al terms, to be love is only natural. It is our departure from love
that is unnatural. The ancient scriptures recognized man’ s violence and saw
it clearly : one of the most important teachings of Veda is the Bhagavad-
Gita, which is set on a battlefield before a murderous war. Yet in the Vedic
tradition an unbroken successio n of saints, seers, masters, and sages have
seen beyond violence and expressed themselves as follows:
Life is love and love is life. What keeps the body together but love? What is desir e but
love of the self?... And what is knowledge but love of truth?
The means and forms may be wrong, but the motive behind is always love—love of the me
and the mine. The me and the mine may be small, or may explode and embrace the
Universe, but love remains.
The voice is that of a South Indian master, Nisar gadatta Maharaj,
speaking to followers in the late 1970s. The expression “life is love and
love is life” has such ancient roots that no idea is more venerable. Yet this is
a love we have lost contact with in our own age, distracted as we are by
sexual attraction, unstable emot ions, and religious dogma. Love based on
the experience of spirit gives rise to the possibility that we can return to our
true nature, throwing aside our unloving behavior as a bad and very long
dream.
A love based on “higher” values espoused by the world’ s religions
seems, as Freud pointed out, impossibly ideal. The scriptural injunctions to
love the Lord with all thy heart, all thy soul, and all thy might  are legion.
Yet there is sober truth in Emily Dickinson’ s mournful little poem:
Sometimes with the Heart
Seldom with the Soul
Scarce once with the Might
Few—love at all.
If all our attempts to find a spiritual foundation for love have shown
themselves to be so wanting, where can we turn?
Spirit can only be called on when it is real, and it can only be real if it is
real for you. In other words it has to be you. This is exactly what the Vedas
teach. Rather than “soul,” they equate spirit with “Self,” not the everyday
self with its thoughts, wishes, needs, and drives but a higher Self that is
silent and eternal. The difference is explained in a classic Vedic metaphor:every person is like a piece of gold. If you were a gold ring, a gold watch, a
gold chain, you could say “I am a ring, a watch, a chain,” but these are
temporary shapes. In truth you are just gold—that is your essence, no
matter how the shape changes.
In the same way, we each have  a self, defined in modern psychology as
an image developed over time. It is a mysterious fusion of ego, personality,
and memory that everyone amasses between infancy and early childhood.
Being complete ly personal, your self is also completely isolated and
separate from every other self. Yet, if you saw yourself truly, you would no
longer identify with this haphazard, ramshackle thing, your self. In truth
you are the Self, created from the same spirit that in infinite form is called
God. You are one grain of gold, compared to which God is all the gold that
exists, and yet you can rightfully say, “I am gold.”
We all draw upon the higher Self for identity, life, awar eness, will, and love.


• The subconscious cannot reason like your conscious mind
Your subconscious mind cannot argue controversially. Hence, if
you give it wrong suggestions, it will accept them as true  and will
proceed to bring them to pass as conditions, ex-periences, and events.
All things that have happened to you are based on thoughts impres sed
on your subconscious mind through belief. If you have conveyed
erroneous concepts to your sub-conscious mind, the sure method of
 28  overcoming them is by the repetition of constructive, harmonious
thoughts frequently re-peated which your subconscious mind accepts,
thus forming new and healthy habits of thought and life, for your
subconscious mind is the seat of habit.
The habitual thinking of your conscious mind establishes deep
grooves in your subconscious mind. This is very favorable for you if
your habitual thoughts are harmonious, peaceful, and constructive.
If you have indulged in fear, worry, and other destructive forms  of
thinking, the remedy is to recognize the omnipotence of your
subconscious mind and decree freedom, happiness, and perfect heal th.
Your subconscious mind, being creative and one with your divine
source, will proceed to create the freedom and happiness, which y ou
have earnestly decreed.
• The tremendous power of suggestion
You must realize by now that your conscious mind is the
“watchman at the gate,” and its chief function is to protect y our
subconscious mind from false impressions. You are now aware of one
of the basic laws of mind:
Your subconscious mind is amenable to suggestion. As you know,
your subconscious mind does not make comparisons, or contrasts,
neither does it reason and think things out for itself. This lat ter
function belongs to your conscious mind. It simply reacts to the
impressions given to it by your conscious mind. It does not show a
preference for one course of action over another.
The following is a classic example of the tremendous power of
suggestion. Suppose you approach a timid-looking passenger on board
ship and say to him something like this: “You look very ill. How pale
you are! I feel certain you are going to be seasick. Let me help you to
your cabin.” The passenger turns pale. Your suggestion of seasi ckness
associates itself with his own fears and forebodings. He a ccepts your
aid down to the berth, and there your negative suggestion, which was
accepted by him, is realized.
 29  • Different reactions to the same suggestion
It is true that different people will react in differen t ways to the
same suggestion because of their subconscious conditioning or be lief.
For example, if you go to a sailor on the ship and say to him
sympathetically, “My dear fellow, you’re looking very ill. Are n’t you
feeling sick? You look to me as if you were going to be seasick.”
According to his temperament he either laughs at your “joke,” or
expresses a mild irritation. Your suggestion fell on deaf ears in this
instance because your suggestion of seasickness was associate d in his
mind with his own immunity from it. There-fore, it called up not f ear
or worry, but selfconfidence.
The dictionary says that a suggestion is the act or instance of  putting
something into one’s mind, the mental process by which the thought
or idea suggested is entertained, accepted, or put into effect. You must
remember that a suggestion cannot impose something on the
subconscious mind against the will of the conscious mind. In other
words, your conscious mind has the power to reject the suggestion
given. In the case of the sailor, he had no fear of seasicknes s. He had
convinced himself of his immunity, and the negative suggestion had
absolutely no power to evoke fear.
The suggestion of seasickness to the other passenger called forth his
indwelling fear of seasickness. Each of us has his own inner  fears,
beliefs, opinions, and these inner assumptions rule and govern our
lives. A suggestion has no power in and of itself except if you accept
it mentally.
This causes your subconscious powers to flow in a limited and
restricted way according to the nature of the suggestion.
• How he lost his arm
Every two or three years I give a series of lectures at the London
Truth Forum in Caxton Hall. This is a Forum I founded a number of
years ago. Dr. Evelyn Fleet, the director, told me about an ar ticle
which appeared in the English newspapers deal-ing with the powe r of
 30  suggestion. This is the suggestion a man gave to his subconsc ious
mind over a period of about two years: “I would give my right  arm to
see my daughter cured.” It ap-peared that his daughter had a crip pling
form of arthritis together with a so-called incurable form of skin
disease. Medical treatment had failed to alleviate the condition, and
the father had an intense longing for his daughter’s healing, and
expressed his desire in the words just quoted.
Dr. Evelyn Fleet said that the newspaper article pointed out  that one
day the family was out riding when their car col-lided with another.
The father’s right arm was torn off at the shoulder, and immedia tely
the daughter’s arthritis and skin con-dition vanished.
You must make certain to give your subconscious only suggestions,
which heal, bless, elevate, and inspire you in all your ways.
Remember that your subconscious mind cannot take a joke. It take s
you at your word.
• How autosuggestion banishes fear
Illustrations of autosuggestion: Autosuggestion means sug-gesting
something definite and specific to oneself. Herbert Parky n, in his
excellent manual of autosuggestion,* records the following inciden t. It
has its amusing side, so that one remem-bers it. “A New York visitor
in Chicago looks at his watch, which is set an hour ahead of Chic ago
time, and tells a Chicago friend that it is twelve o’clock. The Chicago
friend, not considering the difference in time between Chicago and
New York, tells the New Yorker that he is hungry and that he must  go
to lunch.”
Autosuggestion may be used to banish various fears and other
negative conditions. A young singer was invited to give an audit ion.
She had been looking forward to the interview, but on three pr evious
occasions she had failed miserably due to fear of failure. Th is young
lady had a very good voice, but she had been saying to herself, “ When
the time comes for me to sing, maybe they won’t like me. I wi ll try,
but I’m full of fear and anxiety.”
 31  Her subconscious mind accepted these negative autosugges-tions  as
a request and proceeded to manifest them and bring them into her
experience.
The cause was an involuntary auto-suggestion, i.e., silent fear
thoughts emotionalized and subjecti-fied.
She overcame it by the following technique: Three times a da y she
isolated herself in a room. She sat down comfortably in an arm chair,
relaxed her body, and closed her eyes. She stilled her mind and body
as best she could. Physical inertia favors mental passivity  and renders
the mind more receptive to sug-gestion. She counteracted the fea r
suggestion by saying to her-self, “I sing beautifully. I am poised,
serene, confident, and calm.” She repeated this statement slowl y,
quietly, and with feel-ing from five to ten times at each sit ting. She
had three such “sittings” every day and one immediately prior t o
sleep. At the end of a week she was completely poised and confi dent.
When the invitation to audition came, she gave a remarkable, wond er-
ful audition.
• How she restored her memory
A woman, aged seventy-five, was in the habit of saying to hers elf,
“I am losing my memory.” She reversed the procedure and practic ed
induced autosuggestion several times a day as follows: “My m emory
from today on is improving in every department. I shall always
remember whatever I need to know at every moment of time and point
of space. The impressions received will be clearer and more definite. I
shall retain them automatically and with ease. Whatever I wi sh to
recall will im-mediately present itself in the correct  form in my mind.
I am improving rapidly every day, and very soon my memory will  be
better than it has ever been before.” At the end of three weeks, her
memory was back to normal, and she was delighted.
• How he overcame a nasty temper
Many men who complained of irritability and bad temper proved to
be very susceptible to autosuggestion and obtained marvelous r esults
by using the following statements three or four times a day—morni ng,
 32  noon, and at night prior to sleep for about a month. “Henceforth, I
shall grow more goodhumored.
Joy, happiness, and cheerfulness are now becoming my normal
states of mind. Every day I am becoming more and more lov-able and
understanding. I am now becoming the center of cheer and good will
to all those about me, infecting them with good humor. This happy,
joyous, and cheerful mood is now becom-ing my normal, natural sta te
of mind. I

a preventive health care philosophy. It is a powerful tool when used to overcome the entrenched effects of chronic diseases, as are
an estimated 80% of those found in this country. It is a most Ideal way to turn such conditions around toward r ejuvenation and
well-being.

ABOUT DR. JENSEN
Beginning his career as a chiropractor in 1929, Dr. Bernard Jensen soon turned to the art of nutrition in search of remedies for his
own health problems. He travelled to over 50 countries, to study the lifestyl es of the different cultures in an effort to understand the
principles of long and healthy living. He visited Russia where he studied the long -lived people. The last man he met in Russia was
152 years of age. Dr. Jensen journeyed to New Zealand several tim es, stayed at Sri Aurobindo’s Ashram in India and visited Sai
Baba, one of the masters of India. He met with the Dalai Lama and recently stayed with the King of Hunza Valley.
Many of the spas and nature -cure sanitariums in Europe were visited. Many constru ctive ideas were brought back to develop the
Hidden Valley Health Ranch in 1955. It was a place for his patients and guests to come and learn how to live a healthy life.
Hidden Valley Health Ranch served as a retreat for people from all over the world. The  Kneipp water baths from Worishofen,
Germany were established; the organic garden provided 60% of the meals served; lectures and demonstrations were given and the
summer classes became a main attraction. Doctor Jensen concluded that the long -lived people l ive a simple life, in a moderate
temperature, eat unprocessed foods, no fried foods, little meat, live a serene, contented life, maintain good posture and con sistently
live close to where the soil is black. Doctor Jensen believes humanity needs a formula f or living successfully, healthfully and
peacefully. He combines the elements of the physical, mental and spiritual in teaching people how to live.

FOREWORD
Publishing this book has been somewhat difficult due to the natur e of the subject matter. Bowel management is virtually an
undiscussed topic in our culture and Western society. It’s not nice to talk about. Somehow the unspoken idea has crept upon u s
which implies that the bowel will take care of itself. Also along with this erroneous belief comes another which implies that
anything we may buy in the supermarket or prepare in our kitchen will be received with gratitude by the gastro -intestinal system.
Dr. Tom Spies, recipient of the American Medical Association’s Distingu ished Service Award has said, “All the chemicals used in
the body —except for the oxygen we breathe and the water we drink —are taken in through food.”

Unfortunately, the selection of poor foods and improper preparation methods often lead to bowel problems.  Specifically,
researchers have shown that regular use of refined carbohydrates and a lack of fiber in the diet increase the transit time of  bowel
wastes and stimulate production of putrefactive bacteria in the bowel. Both of these factors have been linked  not only to bowel
diseases such as colitis, diverticulosis and cancer but also to chronic disease elsewhere in the body. Fortunately, what medi cal
scientists call the “irritable bowel syndrome” can be prevented or reversed in most cases by following the p rogram described in
this book. There are methods, however, such as proper diet, which will lead to the same results but over a longer period of t ime.
The response to the first edition of this book has been wonderful. We have received many suggestions and comments which have
led us to make revisions and additions to make this book more responsive to your needs.

It often takes an act of resolution and courage in order to get out of the bowel situation in which so many people find thems elves.
There is no bet ter way than taking positive, affirmative action. The instructions given in this book will give you the opportunity to
take greater responsibility over your level of health and well -being. Improving the condition of your bowel will give you
worthwhile divi dends in renewed health, energy and vitality, an investment well made. The program outlined In this book is just
the beginning of a new path. Once the bowel is cleansed of accumulated waste material, the next step begins. Giving up old ha bits
is a very dif ficult thing for most people but is absolutely essential to regaining full health. The building process begins when
correct, life -giving attitudes and habits take over. We can regenerate the body when we have clean tissues that are able to draw all
the nut rients and chemical elements we need from the foods we eat. Coffee and donuts will not do the job; sugar and white bread
won’t either. If old habits are not given up, only temporary “flash” results will be experienced.

This book has been made available fo r the person who wants to take greater responsibility for his or her own health and well -
being. The 7 -day cleansing program described here has been used by many in their own homes with safety. Rome was not built in
a day, nor are the dividends of effective  bowel management always evident right away. It can take months or even years to correct
problems that have taken many years to come about. Developing proper elimination is half the job. The other half is rebuildin g
damaged tissue.

CAUTION
I want to make clear that the program described in this book is not being represented as a cure for any disease or ailment. It is
simply a method of cleaning out the bowel and of restoring regular bowel habits, which leads to a cleaner body through more
efficient elimina tion of wastes. The program described here will seldom conflict with any other therapy or treatment, but if you are
under a doctor’s care, it is best to discuss this program with him and seek his counsel and support. If your doctor is intere sted in
natural  and preventive health care, he will understand that a clean body is more responsive to any therapeutic measure he feels you
need. Our program is not intended to supplant qualified professional health care. Not everyone needs this program, and we are  not
recommending it as a universal panacea. But, there are many who will benefit from it.

We recommend that the seriously ill and the elderly go easy with this program, seeking the advice of their doctor in modifyin g any
of its features to conform to their spe cific needs and limitations. We have attempted to make this book as complete and as clear as
possible, to answer all potential questions and to avoid confusion. Questions and inquiries from professional practitioners a re
welcomed. If you suffer from a blee ding bowel or any severe bowel disturbance, it is imperative that a doctor’s supervision
be employed.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION TO RAISING BOWEL CONSCIOUSNESS: TWO MIRACLES*
As


Saurashtra) used Unne Therapy for his cough and cold, and he had recovered from both of them, and in addition, got complete relief from other ailments.”  Urine Therapy by Dr. John O'Quinn  COUGH  A farmer from Navagam gave his account of recovery from T.B. of the lungs by application of urine. The chairman was suprised to hear his account and asked him to send a written statement. It reads as follows:  "I had been suffering from T.B. of the lungs for the last four years. It was preceded by cough and fever. I had been reduced to a bare skeleton. I took the treatment of doctors and had some relief. In the next winter, there was a relapse, and the cough and fever attacked me again. Another doctor advised me to undergo an operation and get rid of the affected ribs. But God willed otherwise. I happened to go to a relative, he asked me to try urine treatment before undergoing the operation, I agreed.  I started with rubbing of urine on the body and after a week, drinking of urine was also begun. After two weeks, I sought further instructions. After that, there was considerable improvement. Eleven months have passed since but I have never been obliged to see any doctor or take any medicine. There is considerable improvement in my appetite and power of digestion. Motions are regular. While working in the field on two or three occasions, I got drenched in the rain, but there was no adverse affect on my health. The experiment has been continued for the past eleven months. Sometimes mild attacks of cough were experienced but they disappeared after three or four days. Neither had I to 61 take doctor's medicine, nor to keep in bed.. Really this experiment is very effective and encouraging.”  Urine Therapy by Dr. John O'Quinn  COUGH  Mr. A.K. Singh who was an officer in Ministry of Defence once came to me with the problem of his eighteen years old son, Anil. Anil had 'eosinophilia'. In this disease number of R.B.C. in the blood decreases and number of W.B.C. increases, as a result phlegm formation in the body goes up. Cold cough and loss of appetite are its general symptom. Breathing is difficult and patient feels like asthmatic. Health of person having eosinophilia remains weak even if he eats much because most of it is converted into phlegm.  Anil's height was good but he was lean and thin with a pervading slackness in his body. His father tried all kinds of allopathic, Ayurvedic and homeopathic treatment on him without success. I persuaded him to try urine. Mr. A.K. Singh was well read and had heard about urine therapy. He and his son agreed to experiment. I asked him to fast but it was too much for him and he didn't agree whereupon. I suggested that Anil should drink his first urine of the morning with eating or drinking anything else. Anil did this religiously and today he is healthy and robust young man of 21. He never had any attack of cold and cough in last three years.  "Miracles of Urine Therapy" by Morarji Desai  CRIPPLED  “Shrimati Bhagavtiji, wife of the famous Hindi writer and thinker, began to feel pain in her legs. Gradually it" became so acute that it rendered her invalid and crippled. For a year she was under homoeopathic and for a couple of weeks or so electric treatment. No discernible gain was registered.  On reading about urine therapy she adopted it. Even with her first drought she felt a return of strength. For seven days she massaged for two hours daily with old urine. Due to certain circumstances she could not proceed with her treatment but she had already regained 70% of her old activity. Whenever there is pain she manages with urine. She invariably takes her morning constitutionals and eats only bread made from self-ground flour. She has implicit faith in urine therapy.”  from Manav Mootra by R. M. Patel  62 CUT ON FOOT  “Mangilal Maloviya is a naturopath, and he had a bad cut on his left foot. He at once urinated over it and put a urine-soaked bandage over it. Pain at once subsided, and the deep wound healed in no time, without pus formation.”  Urine Therapy by Dr. John O'Quinn  CYSTICERCOSIS  Irene Or of Hernandez { Mexico } "My disease is cerebral Cysticercosis (pork tapeworm in the brain). I have taken my Urine 4 months and the tumor in my head went away. They gave chemotherapy to me. I know that the best thing that God has given me is my health and although I appear ill in my studies, in my body I do not feel anything bad. Every day I thank God to let me live with my husband and children."  World-wide Case Histories of Urine Therapy by Gary Ward  CYSTICERCOSIS  Ana Squares { Mexico } "I have Cisticercosis. The hospital evicted me for they had no future help for me. They gave only one month life for my future but in December of 1995 I began to take the Urine and I no longer returned with pains. Thanks to God and Dr. Sonia the Chemist."  World-wide Case Histories of Urine Therapy by Gary Ward  CYSTITIS  "Patient, male, 30 years, applied for treatment for cystitis that developed after a long drive in the rain. At night he had to void every hour or two...A teaspoonful of morning urine one-half hour before meals completely cleared up the case within two days."  Autotherapy by Dr. Charles Duncan  CYSTITIS  “A thirty-two year-old woman with typical symptoms of cystitis including frequent, painful urination; also complained of chronic constipation for which she has been taking 63 laxatives unsuccessfully for several years. She was treated with 12 urine injections and all symptoms completely disappeared.

I had another injection of penicillin which removed the inflammation but produced a bad reaction. After three months, urine increased in quantity. I had to pass urine seven times during the day and seven times during the night. I felt very weak and I was reduced in 64 weight. A feeling of thirst was always there. There was aching in my mouth and throat. I visited the doctor again and was informed that I suffered from diabetes. On 12-5-59, doctor P. M.

 that we’ve had this
conversation, is that when you do the Who Meditation, you will chant yourself right into an
awareness  of your larger self, of your true  self.
You are not a human being. You are not the person named John Smith or Mary Jones. You
are not your body, you are not your mind, and you are not your soul. These are things that
You have. The You that has these thing s—indeed, that has given  your Self these things —is
far bigger than any of them, and even all of them put together.  The You that you are is God, in Particular Form. You are Deity Individuated. You are an
Aspect of Divinity. And so is everyone and everything  else.
The whole realm in which you live and breathe and have your being is Heaven. The
Kingdom of God is not something to which you are striving to return, but something within
which you are living now. It is the place where you will be always, and all wa ys.
That kingdom has three realms: the Realm of Knowing, the Realm of Experiencing, and
the Realm of Being. Your present consciousness is now focused on the Realm of
Experiencing —otherwise known as the Realm of the Physical, or the Realm of the Relative.
While you are here, you have all the tools you will ever need to use this realm to experience
what you came here to experience... which is Who You Really Are.
You can not only experience it, you can recreate it anew as you go along, in the next
grandest version of the greatest vision ever you held about that. That is the wonder of life
and the glory of you.
This is, I know, a change in the way you have thought of yourself. It is a change in the
way you have experienced your life. It is a change that will change everything.
Make this change permanent, not simply a temporarily held idea. Make it permanent
now. For I tell you again...
... it is a change that will change everything.
“Go outside and play!”
said God.
“I have given you Universes as fields to run free in!
And here —take this and wrap yourself in it —
It’s called: LOVE
and It will always, always  keep you warm.
And stars! The sun and the moon and the stars!
Look upon these often, for they will remind you of your own
light!
And eyes... oh, gaze into the eyes of every  Lover.
Gaze into the eyes of every  other
for they have given you their  Universes
as fields to run free in.
There.
I have given you everything you need.
Now go, go, go outside
and
play!”

Final Thoughts, but No Goodbye’s
People who have read this material as an unpublished manuscript and others who have
participated in workshops and spiritual renewal retreats where I have presented it
verbally, have made a number of comments and  asked several questions that have
motivated me to clarify a few points in the “model” I am presenting here. I hope these
Addendum Considerations will help “close the gap” for you, too, if you are querying these
same things.
One question I have been asked is, “In the Line of Causality, what is the difference
between ‘belief’ and ‘truth’?” That is a very good question. My answer is that there is no
difference in structure, only in source. Both one’s “belief” and one’s “truth” are concepts. Yet
in the model I  have been given to share, “belief” is understood to be a concept arising out of
one’s perception, while “truth” is understood to be a concept arising out of one’s data.
Data is information pulled only from a person’s past. It is information held in the mi nd.
Perception is information pulled from a person’s total view of life, which, in turn, arises out
of that’s person’s perspective. If the person takes the soul’s perspective —which includes
information about the past, present, and future —rather than the mi nd’s perspective, then
Perception will always offer a broader view than simple Past Data.
I have also been asked how it can be said that “behavior” leads to “events” in every case
in the life of people, as shown on my Line of Causality. “What about an elde rly couple that I
know,” one lady challenged me at a workshop in Denver, “who was robbed at gunpoint in
their own home and beaten badly by the men who broke in. How did this couple’s behavior
produce that event in their life?”
This has led me to further ex plore the Line of Causality and then explain it in deeper
terms.
As I have come to understand it, the Line of Causality has two wild cards in it. These are
Behavior and Event. I call these wild cards because their content can be placed in the Line
of Causa lity in the singular sense (that is, by one person) or in the plural sense  (that is, by
the collective known as humanity).
Everything having to do with Perspective, Perception, and Belief is stuff that we,
ourselves, as individuals, adopt for reasons singu lar to us. Then come Behavior and Event,
which flow to each of us from our own  Perspective, Perception, and Belief, as well as those
of others.
Here in the Line of Causality there is a “seep through” or a “bleed through” from the life
encounter of everyone  in our environment. This bleed through plays a collective effect on
the Behaviors and Events that we each individually encounter in life. This does not mean,
however, that we do not control or create our experience and our reality. We still most
certainly  do, for after an Event occurs, the mechanism of the mind becomes a singularly
influenced device once again, reverting to an individual’s own Data, Truth, Thought,
Emotion, and Experience, so to produce an individual’s own Reality.  Thus it could be said th at nothing in the Behavior of, say, Ronald Cotton (mentioned
earlier in this book as the man mistakenly identified as a rapist) produced the Event of his
having been incarcerated for eleven years. It was something in the collective Behavior of
others that produced this Event. Yet after the Event occurred, he returned to his own very
singular Line of Causality to produce his own Reality, in which he forgave his accuser and
became friends with her, writing a book together about their experience. I venture to say
that his Reality was influenced heavily by the perspective that begins his Line of Causality,
and which produces his own perception or view of the world.
Having said that, I acknowledge that the model here is a work in progress. It is ever
changing —which, of course, is not only incredibly appropriate for this book, but the very
point of it. And it is not only the people in my Changing Everything workshops who offer me
new insights and take me to new areas of inquiry. You, too, can do this —and I hope tha t
you will.
Online at www.ChangingChange.net, you can call up this book paragraph by paragraph,
line by line, click on any word or phrase, and post a question or an observation about it.
Others who have selected the same portion of the text may have already posted there, or
may do so in the future, making for a lively online discussion.
The idea is for this book to be living literature, not some stuck -in-concrete thesis that is
presented and then goes unquestioned and unchallenged. I am excited about the
Interactive Book concept, and hope that you are, too.
Now, I have been asked by many people, “How can I make the changes you have been
suggesting here?” They want to know, “Where do I start?” They earnestly ask, “What should
I be doing right now?” They hear the message, they see the destination to w hich it seeks to
take them, but they don’t know how to “get there from here.”
To help you get going and keep moving on all this, we have developed the Changing
Change Program. This is an extraordinary resource that will walk you through, step by step,
the transformation of your own life.
The very first section of this program —Getting Started —is powerful enough to make
real change visible in your life very quickly.
The program includes Here Is What You Can Do Now section; life -prodding questions;
practical s uggestions; mental, spiritual, and emotional tools; sure -footed guidance; and
even personal coaching  if you wish. PLUS... a way for you to turn what you’ve learned into
learning for others. That is, a way for you to pass it on.
Now let me be clear about  something. You do not need the Changing Change Program in
order to implement the insights found in this text. This book gives you all the information
you require to get started, explaining the Mechanics of the Mind and the System of the Soul
and offering you an opportunity to experiment with them to see if they make sense and
work for you. The Changing Change Program is a supplemental resource for those who

 socket at the base of the skull. When you open and close
your jaw, this "ball" rotates in its socket, and — if the teeth push the jaw too far in
any direction — the soft tissues between the bones are pinched.
One trouble that sometimes follows this pinching is a slow loss of hearing, says one
authority on TMJ disorders. He cites the case of a man who was losing his hearing
and had been wearing a hearing aid for two years before he learned of equilibration.
He had not noticed any discomfort at the joints in front of his ears, nor that his teeth
were not meeting properly, but suspected that his teeth might somehow be causing
stress. Se he went to his dentist, who made the necessary changes on the chewing
surfaces of his teeth. Three days later, the patient's hearing had improved to such an
77
Winning The Cancer War
extent that he discarded his hearing aid. He has not needed it since. That was nine
years ago, and his hearing is still good.
Not all patients respond so quickly nor so completely as that, of course, and there
are many other causes of deafness, the authority points out — but pressure at the TMJ
should not be overlooked.
Besides hearing trouble, this authority says, stress in the TMJ can cause neuralgia,
stiff neck, running ears and itching ears. He tells of a woman who suffered from
itching ears so much that in company she often had to excuse herself from the room
to scratch her ears. X-ray pictures showed both Temporomandibular joints to be out
of normal adjustment. After her dentist corrected the chewing surfaces of her teeth,
the itching gradually left. (X-ray pictures showed that the joints are now in proper
adjustment.)
It is not uncommon for stress in the TMJ to bring on head noises. A patient who
wore artificial dentures in which the teeth were out of adjustment, forcing the left side
of his jaw backward until the joint on that side was under considerable stress,
experienced almost immediate relief from roaring sounds in his ears after being
treated by his dentist. This was several years ago, and the roaring sound has not
returned.
Although the connection between stress in the TMJ and the troubles cited is not
fully understood, it is known that there is a connection, because when the condition
in the joint is corrected the troubles often disappear.
How does the dentist restore the joints to a normal condition of equilibrium? As
part of the treatment he may change the slopes of the natural or artificial teeth, or
make the teeth higher or lower to bring the chewing muscles into proper working
relationship. Sometimes he reduces pressure on the front teeth so that the chewing
forces fall more on the back teeth. (If the ball parts of the lower jaw have been
pushed too far up into their sockets, this "pivoting" allows them to settle down again
into their normal relaxed positions.)
As the TMJ authority notes, one advantage of equilibration treatment is that it can
be done in the dental office and, in many instances, saves the patient from the more
radical treatments of surgery or the injection of chemicals into the joints. Quite often,
in fact, equilibration is the only treatment needed.
As with other treatment, preventing trouble is an important aim of TMJ diagnosis.
Because TMJ stress sometimes builds up gradually, with the patient suffering no
inconvenience at first, the lower jaw and its joints are often checked for equilibrium
78
Winning The Cancer War
to prevent trouble.
Dentists, Physicians Team Up To Treat TMJ Disorders
Dentists and physicians all over the world are teaming up for diagnosis and
treatment of TMJ disorders. (One physician-dentist reported improvement in over
85% of more than 1,000 patients treated with pivoting; another physician-dentist
team reported that 52 of 54 patients obtained relief from dizziness after equilibration.)
In 1955 many dentists and physicians from the U.S. and abroad organized as the
American Equilibration Society to further more intensive study of the TMJ and related
structures.
CranioSacral Therapy
This is a very gentle, non-invasive hands-on approach that focuses on the
craniosacral system of the body. This system consists of the membranes and
cerebrospinal fluid that surround and protect the brain and spinal cord. It extends
from the bones of the skull, face and mouth — which make up the cranium — down
to the sacrum, or tailbone.
This system has been effective in evaluating and treating problems associated with
pain and dysfunction, lowered vitality, and recurring infections. The light touch
employed in this approach encourages your own natural mechanisms to improve the
functioning of your brain and spinal cord, to dissipate the negative effects of stress
and to enhance your general health and resistance to disease.
Craniosacral therapy by Osteopaths, Chiropractors and Dentists has proven to
help people who complain of ringing in the ears (tinnitus) and some forms of
hearing loss.
Many have asked Dr. Kelley this question:
"I have a friend losing the lung cancer battle. Does your program help those in later
states of cancer? Chemotherapy and radiation have not worked for him."
Dr. Kelley's answer:
There is only one solution to any cancer.— The Kelley Metabolic Program. In
reviewing the medical literature today from 1889 it has been well established, "there
is no cure for cancer after it has been interfered with. All cancer reacts by increased
growth to any injury mechanical or surgical, chemical, or thermal." The 1985
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Review of several thousands of my patients stated that
79
Winning The Cancer War
"cure rate of the Kelley Program was only 93% after the physicians had used Surgery,
Chemotherapy and Radiation" Of course this is the highest "cure rate" in medical
history. Exception was "pancreatic cancer" at a 100% "cure rate".
The denial of the KELLEY METABOLIC CANCER CURE PROGRAM is the denial
of truth and all known scientific proven understanding. This denial is common among
the Orthodox and Alternative medical communities. "Cure" is not in their vocabulary;
only "treatment" and "remission" for financial gain. Cancer victims are "expendable
as in experimental animals."
Should you or your friends, at this late terminal stage, choose to use our
program, and can follow the PROGRAM exactly for six months, there is a possibility
for help. There is nothing else that offers the remote possibility of success.

Spiritu a l Attitu d e
If y o u r cancer has ta u g h t you s p iritu a l tru th,
you have gained m uch.
If your cancer has caused you to stop, think, pray, and know God better, it has
been a blessing to you.
If your cancer has caused you to realize the importance and magnificence of this
temple wherein your soul dwells, you have been doubly blessed.
If your cancer has caused you to look within and ask the Christ to dwell within
you, you have been thrice blessed.
Often physical infirmities come to us for such a purpose. This was true in my own
case. The still, small voice within spoke out to guide and teach this Child of God.
Not all who have cancer w ill overcome the condition. Many w ill not believe that
such a simple treatment w ill work. Many w ill not have the opportunity to hear about
and try the procedure. Many w ill come too late with a temple (body) too weak to
respond. But, I  pray with all of you my friends, that you w ill learn a beautiful lesson
and learn it well. I  did.
Each of God's children is in an experience in their school (earth) each doing the
very best he or she can. Jesus said, "Judge not, that ye be not judged" (7 Matthew 1);
"This is my commandment, that ye love one another, as I  have loved you." (15 John
12).
If your cancer has taught you spiritual truth, you have gained much. I  pray with
you and for you that at this point you have come to the realization that your spiritual
decision to get well or not to get well is your own responsibility. If you decide to go
home early, rejoice, for the Father prepares a place for you. Those of you who have
loved ones, who have made this decision, rejoice with them and send them on their
way into God's care.
If you decide to stay in school a little longer, this is also good and it should now be
easier. If you are to operate as a perfect being, in perfect health, then you must have
a perfect attitude. You must become aware of the spiritual power within that is
81
Winning The Cancer War
greater than you, the still, small voice within.
If you are of the many millions of people who have been told that you have cancer
and that your days are numbered, then it is you who must be interested enough to
seek out the truth of your condition. You have read many things in this treatise, which
bring new thinking to a very old disease.
Since we are dealing with the metabolic approach to cancer, we must consider not
only the physical, but also the mental and spiritual laws of God. We need help from
those around us as well as the God power within to reverse our thinking, and attain
that balance which creates a healthy physical being.

And perhaps the most neurotic of all…

everything seems all right, I worry about not knowing what will
happen next.”)
This is the collective worry sheet of people in our culture. You can
give worry points to each of those that seem most applicable to you,
total it up, and no matter what your score, it still adds up to zero.
The following paragraph illustrates the extent of worry in our world.
It’s taken from a story in Newsday  (May 3, 1975) on hospital malprac-
tice insurance.
West Islip—Two officials of the Nassau-Suffolk Hospital
Council warned yesterday that those worrying  about the prob-
lems that the malpractice insurance crisis could create—if doc-
tors cease treating patients entirely or treat only emergency
cases—have not worried  quite enough.
Indeed, a call to spend more time worrying about a problem. How
could a story like this even appear? Because the cultural pressure is
to worry, rather than to do. If all of those concerned were to worry
a lot more, perhaps the problem would go away.THE USELESS EMOTIONS—GUILT AND WORRY  / 111In order to eliminate worry it is necessary to understand the why
behind it. If worry is a large part of your life, you can bet that it has
many historical antecedents. But what are the payoffs? They are
similar to the neurotic dividends that you receive for guilt, since
both worry and guilt are self-nullifying behaviors, that vary only in
a temporal sense. Guilt focuses on the past; worry on the future.
The Psychological Payoffs for Choosing Worry
• Worry is a present-moment activity. Thus, by using your current
life being immobilized over a future time in your life, you are able
to escape the now and whatever it is in the now that threatens you.
For example, I spent the summer of 1974 in Karamursel, Turkey,
teaching and writing a book on counseling. My seven-year-old
daughter was back in the United States with her mother. While I
love writing, I also find it an intensely lonely, difficult chore which
requires a great deal of self-discipline. I would sit down at my
typewriter with paper in place and the margins set, and all of a
sudden my thoughts would be back on little Tracy Lynn. What if
she rides her bicycle into the street and doesn’t look? I hope she’s
being watched at the swimming pool, because she has a tendency
to be careless. Before I knew it, an hour had elapsed, and I had spent
it worrying. This was all in vain of course. But, was it? As long as I
could use up my present moments worrying I didn’t have to struggle
with the difficulty of writing. A terrific payoff indeed.
• You can avoid having to take risks by using your worry as the
reason for immobility. How could you possibly act if you are preoc-
cupied with your present-moment worry? “I can’t do a thing, I’m
just too worried about———” This is a common lament, and one
with a payoff that keeps you standing still and avoiding the risk of
action.112 / Your Erroneous Zones• You can label yourself as a caring person  by worrying. Worry
proves that you are a good parent, good spouse, or good whatever.
A handsome dividend, although lacking in logical healthy thinking.
• Worry is a handy justification for certain self-defeating behavior.
If you’re overweight, you undoubtedly eat more when you worry,
hence you have a sensational reason for hanging on to the worry
behavior. Similarly, you find yourself smoking more in worrisome
situations, and can use the worry to avoid giving up smoking. This
same neurotic reward system applies to areas including marriage,
money, health and the like. The worry helps you to avoid changing.
It is easier to worry about chest pains than to take the risk of finding
out the truth, and then have to deal forthrightly with yourself.
• Your worry keeps you from living. A worrier sits around and
thinks about things, while a doer must be up and about. Worry is a
clever device to keep you inactive, and clearly it is easier, if less re-
warding, to worry, than to be an active, involved person.
• Worry can bring ulcers, hypertension, cramps, tension head-
aches, backaches and the like. While these may not seem to be pay-
offs, they do result in considerable attention from others and justify
much self-pity as well, and some people would rather be pitied than
fulfilled.
Now that you understand the psychological support system for
your worry, you can begin to devise some strategic efforts for getting
rid of the troublesome worry bugs that breed in this erroneous zone.
Some Strategies for Eliminating Worry
• Begin to view your present moments as times to live, rather than
to obsess about the future. When you catch yourself worry-THE USELESS EMOTIONS—GUILT AND WORRY  / 113ing, ask yourself, “What am I avoiding now by using up this moment
with worry?” Then begin to attack whatever it is you’re avoiding.
The best antidote to worry is action. A client of mine, formerly prone
to worry, told me of a recent triumph over it. At a vacation resort
he wandered into the sauna one afternoon. There he met a man who
couldn’t take a holiday from his worries. The other man elaborated
all of the things my client should be worrying about. He mentioned
the stock market, but said not to worry about short-range fluctu-
ations. In six months there would be a virtual collapse, and that was
the thing to really worry about. My client made sure of all the things
he should worry about, and then left. He played a one-hour game
of tennis, enjoyed a touch football game with some young children,
participated with his wife in a Ping-Pong match which they thor-
oughly enjoyed, and finally, some three hours later, returned for a
shower/sauna. His new friend was still there worrying, and began
once again to chronicle more things to worry about. Meantime, my
client had spent his present moments excitedly alive, while the other
man had consumed his in worry. And neither man’s behavior had
any effect on the stock market.
• Recognize the preposterousness of worry. Ask yourself over
and over, “Is there anything that will ever change as a result of my
worrying about it?”
• Give yourself shorter and shorter periods of “worry-time.”
Designate ten minutes in the morning and afternoon as your worry
segments. Use these periods to fret about every potential disaster
you can get into the time slot. Then, using your ability to control
your own thoughts, postpone any further worry until your next
designated “worry-time.” You’ll soon see the folly of using any time
in this wasteful fashion, and will eventually eliminate your worry
zone completely.
• Make a worry list of everything you worried about yesterday,
last week and even last year. See if any of your worry did anything
productive for you. Assess also how many of the114 / Your Erroneous Zonesthings you worried about ever materialized at all. You’ll soon see
that the worry is really a doubly wasteful activity. It does nothing
to alter the future. And the projected catastrophe often turns out to
be minor, or even a blessing when it arrives.
• Just Worry!  See if it is something that you can demonstrate when
you are tempted to worry. That is, stop and turn to someone and
say, “Watch me—I’m about to worry.” They’ll be confounded since
you probably won’t even know how to demonstrate the thing you
do so well, so often.
• Ask yourself this worry-eradicating question. “What’s the worst
thing that could happen to me (or them) and what is the likelihood
of it occurring?” You’ll discover the absurdity of worry in this way.
• Deliberately choose to act in some manner that is in direct con-
flict with your usual areas of worry. If you compulsively save for
the future, always worried about having enough money for another
day, begin to use your money today. Be like the rich uncle who put
in his will, “Being of sound mind, I spent all my money while I was
alive.”
• Begin to face the fears you possess with
