dence; the view of the world now is harmonious. When we walk down the street, we see the subtle,
beautiful naturalness of how everything interacts,
how everything is really where it should be, and that
everybody wants to be what they are.The bag lady is
there because she wants to be a bag lady; nobody has
forced her to be that. She has chosen to be that which
she is.We stop blaming things, and we begin to expe
rience that the world is expressing harmony to the
degree to which we are willing to own the truth
about ourself and express it.The whole movie is har
monious, and God now begins to look like a merciful
and forgiving God of a harmonious world. With the quieting of emotionality that is conse
quent to acceptance, the way is now clear to facilitate
the use of reason, discernment, and the intellect
without interference from stressful feelings, such as
fear of survival, anger, and the rest. Free of the distor
tions and distractions, the mind becomes clear enough
to utilize logic and the benefits of education and higher
learning, including academic study and abstract
thought, which is the level of mind that includes the
calibration range of the 400s. This is also the realm
of science, which is based on the Newtonian para
digm of proof, evidence, and the laws of cause and
effect. The 400s include the Great Books of the
Western World, as well as celebrated geniuses, such as
Newton, Einstein, and Freud. In the 400s, personal power increases markedly by
maximal use ofthe prefrontal cortex ofthe brain with
which fear, worry, and anxiety can be handled with
the tools of logic and reason rather than just raw emo296 HEALING AND RECOVERY
tion.The world therefore looks less fearful because its
risks are comprehended from a higher, more mature
level rather than from the raw emotionality of the
child. The mind thus discovers safeguards and limits
in order to arrive at a balance and the capacity for
rational judgment and reality testing. Via good will and a rational worldview, inner anxiety
diminishes, and the shift in brain physiology, plus
intention, allows for the emergence of Love as a dom
inant life principle at consciousness calibration level
500.At this level, the nurturance of relationships and
the welfare of others become predominant in con
trast to lower levels of consciousness that are the con
sequence of domination by the narcissistic core of
the ego. With further evolution, the level of Love becomes
unconditional at 540, and the way is paved for con
sciousness to evolve to the higher spiritual levels that
calibrate at approximately 600, which is the level of
spiritual Bliss and Peace. As we move up in our willingness to be of service
to this world, our lovingness emerges as
Unconditional Love to nurture and support life. We
are willing to forgive, and beginning revelation
occurs. Due to the release of endorphins, we begin to
see the lovingness that is everywhere. We see it in
nature and in the animal world.We see the naturallov
ingness of the child within everybody. The loving
heart of the child is still alive in everyone. Ifa person
does not experience that, it is beCause they do not
know how to tune in to it, but the innocent, loving
heart of the child is in everyone. It can be appealed W0 RR Y, FEAR, AND AN X lETY 297
to, and that is why the merciless killer in the presence
of a loving person can become harmless. In contrast,
in the presence of a fearful person, it creates the
space for him to attack, and he does attack.The loving
person then experiences a safe world, and God must,
of necessity, be at least at the same level of conscious
ness as he is and therefore be unconditionally loving. The experience of the truth of this brings the
person into a joyfulness. Joyfulness brings about a
transfiguration in consciousness. It brings one into
compassion. The inner serenity of the compassionate
person begins to see the perfection of creation. The
unconditional love of the Creator creates a oneness. The person begins to experience the oneness of all
beings. Therefore, all of life in all its expressions is
sacred.There is a beginning awareness of the sacred
ness of life and a merging into an illumined and
enlightened state of blissfulness and infmite peace in
which the total oneness of Creation brings an aware
ness of God as the essence of beingness itself. As I stood on top of the mountain in the presence
of the rattlesnake, what was it that entranced and
flXed both of us into a state of infmite peace and one
ness? I could not really say in that state of aliveness
that the life of the snake and my life were two differ
ent lives because it seemed as though they were one. The two were being controlled by the nature of the
One-that which brought what seemed to be the two
of us together as one experience. There was really
only one experience occurring. One might say that
the one experience was being experienced through
the two, or, the two were experiencing their oneness. 298 HEALING AND RECOVERY
Therefore, no thought of attack arose because the
energy field of that experience had already arisen. The feeling of infmite peace is often called the Peace
of God. There are certain teachings that say there are really
only two emotions-love and fear-and all the nega
tive feelings below Love are nothing but variations of
fear. We can see all of these expressions of fear-fear
of moral wrong, fear of the inability to survive and
exist, fear over the loss of the source of one's hap
piness, and anger over the intrinsic fear that 'not
getting' brings to· a person. Therdore, we could say
that these are forms of fear. There are really only two expression ofemotion
love, which starts at 500 and becomes infinite in its
expression, and fear, which begins at 100 and goes
ever downward in its expression. Therefore, the
handling of all the negative feelings arises out of the
willingness to accept that we have the power within
us to handle this inner fearfulness, to recognize that
we are the source of it, and to stop projecting it onto
the world or God. No one created a fearful world;
there is no such thing.The fearful world is within us. We carry it with us and thus we can let it go. We can
let the fear of the fear go, as well as fear itself, and
move into the presence of Love. CHAPTER 10
Pain and Suffering
This chapter will cover the subject ofthe alleviation of
pain and suffering. The world thinks that they are the
same thing, but we will show how suffering and pain
are actually different from each other. We will look at
the relationship between the physical, mental, and spir
itual aspects of the experience of the body. It is said that all diseases, illnesses, and human
problems are physical, mental, and spiritual, but what
does that really mean? As a physician for more than
fIfty years, I have learned about the physical aspects;
as a psychiatrist, I have learned about the mental
components; and in consciousness and spiritual
research and experience, I have learned about the
spiritual dimension. What is meant by spirit? Is it a fantasy, or is it some
thing real that we can work with? Is it something that
is only useful for religious people?What do we need to
know about'spirit' in order to experience the truth of
it for ourselves, and how can we utilize this knowledge
for the alleviation of our personal problems and those
of the people we love? We will learn how to handle acute and chronic
pain, and even more importantly, how to be with that
pain. There are two problems to address: The frrst is
how to handle the symptoms specifIcally and discover
what part hypnosis, acupuncture, and other modalities
play in the alleviation of pain.The second is to look at
the levels of consciousness and how they relate to the
experience. of pain. Again, we will be referring to the
Map of Consciousness, which shows the calibrated
299 300 HEALING AND RECOVERY
levels of energy, their relative power and direction, the
emotional component of each level, the process going
on in consciousness at each level and how that influ
ences our view of the world and of God, and how the
problem is resolved ifwe do not have a belief in a God. There will be clinical examples of problems I have
personally experienced and worked through using
these techniques, along with examples that have
worked for others.With these clinical experiences, we
can demonstrate certain principles of consciousness
that offer a benefit for our lives as a whole. What we
learn in studying one specific example then has other
applications, so we will be turning lemons into lemon

Any contact of food with aluminum causes small amounts (with some vegetables, e. g. tomatoes, large amounts) of aluminum to be dissolved and released into the food. This metal is
highly toxic; it causes brain damage and is believed to play a role in causing Alzheimer’s. Discard any and all aluminum items and don’t allow aluminum foil to come into contact with
food. Use stainless steel pots, preferably with heavy “waterless” bottoms; or glass (Pyrex) or
enameled cast iron pots. Stainless steel cooking utensils or wooden spoons are best; also silver
flatware, if available. Small amounts of colloidal silver, released from silver forks, spoons and
knives are valuable stimulants for the immune system. Do not use pressure cookers: they work at a very high temperature that damages nutrients,
and one of the basic Gerson rules is to cook food very slowly, at a low temperature, to avoid such
damage. The glaze used on some crockpots is toxic—best steer clear of them. Distillers
Surprising though this may sound, Gerson patients don’t drink water. There are two reasons
for this. On the one hand, their daily intake of 13 glasses of freshly made organic juices and fluid-
rich soup, salads and fruit provides them with all the top quality nutritious liquid they need. On
the other hand water would only dilute their already deficient digestive juices, without supplying
any nutrients. However, water is used in the Gerson Therapy in cooking, to make soups, teas, and
of course enemas, and it is vitally important to ensure the purity of this water. There are various
filter systems in the market, including reverse osmosis (R. O. ), which can only be used if the local
water supply is guaranteed free from highly harmful fluoride. ( see Chapter 5., Pg. 24, pp. 6 ) The
safest way to ensure freedom from impurities, toxic chemicals and above all fluoride, is to set up
a home distiller. Many kinds of distillers are available in various price ranges. Choice must depend on cost
and on the amount of water the household may need. The patient alone will use up 2-3 gallons
in every 24-hour period; more, if other family members also eat Gerson food and/or wish to use
enemas. A distiller needs an electric connection and an extra water faucet; many patients install theirs
in the laundry room or the garage. The machine needs to be detached and cleaned every 3 days. Seeing the sludge left behind will convince anyone of the need to purify water as thoroughly as
possible. Distillation works by heating water to the point of it becoming steam, which is run through
a tube that causes it to cool and condense back into water. Since minerals, various impurities and Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>

not reflect the potassium status of the cell. Low serum potassium values may signify healing,
because the depleted tissues are reabsorbing potassium, while high figures may be found in
failures, because the tissues lose it. Thyroid and Lugol’s Solution
It is a fact, known since Dr. Gerson’s day, that most cancer patients are suffering from a low
basal metabolism. Much of the problem is caused by the chlorine widely used in the purification
of the water supply, and—worse still—by fluoride. Both remove iodine from the thyroid gland,
thus reducing its ability to function properly. The thyroid gland regulates the metabolic rate of the
organism, acting as its thermostat, being capable of raising temperature and producing fever; it
also affects the immune system as well as the proper functioning of all hormone systems. When
thyroid and iodine in the form of 1/2 strength Lugol’s solution are added to the patient’s intake,
the immune system becomes reactivated and healing can begin. The patient’s metabolic rate has
to be established for a correct dosage, but most cancer patients start with 5 grains of thyroid and
18 drops of Lugol’s solution (3 drops in each of 1 orange and 5 carrot/apple juices) a day, for
the first 3-4 weeks only. Then the amounts are reduced to 2 or 2 1⁄2 grains of thyroid and 12
drops of Lugol’s, and subsequently adjusted according to the Gerson doctor’s instruction. Patients suffering from non-malignant diseases use the less intensive therapy (see Chapter 19 ),
with much less thyroid and Lugol’s solution. Niacin : (common name for nicotinic acid, or Vitamin B-3) Niacin assists in the digestion
of protein and helps to open capillary circulation, thus bringing freshly oxygenated blood (from
the constant intake of fresh juices) to all body tissues. By improving circulation it also works to
reduce ascites (abdominal edema) and pain. The dosage is a 50 mg tablet 6 times daily, taken
during meals. This medication often causes the well-known “niacin flush,” a temporary reddening
of the face and upper chest area, with some itching. This is totally harmless and passes quickly. (Do NOT switch to non-flushing niacin: it is ineffective.) Niacin should be discontinued during
women’s periods or in case of bleeding of any kind. Liver Capsules : The severely toxic and damaged liver of the cancer patient needs maximum
assistance to improve its vital functions. The therapy provides this help in the form of liver
capsules containing dried, defatted powdered liver from healthy animals. Two capsules of liver
powder are given three times a day, with carrot-only juice. According to Dr. Virginia Livingston,
the combination of dry liver powder with carrot juice produces abcissic acid,  a precursor of
Vitamin A, which is essential in attacking tumor tissue. Crude Liver Injections : An additional substance given to aid in the restoration of the liver. It normally contains a small amount of Vitamin B 12. However, since virtually all cancer patients Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007. All rights reserved. This material may not be reproduced in any medium, print or electronic without prior written permission from the author.Page 120Healing the Gerson Way—Defeating Cancer and Other Chronic Diseases
www.thegersonway.comare anemic, additional Vitamin B 12 is needed to help restore the hemoglobin content of the blood,
promoting the formation and maturation of red blood cells. It works against different types of
anemia and even against degenerative changes in the spinal cord. As seen in animal experiments,
this vitamin is able to restore a wide range of tissues damaged by age, chronic illness, surgery,
degenerative diseases, or various kinds of poisoning. Intra-muscular Liver Extract (3 cc) with
added 50 mcg of B 12—a tiny amount, a 20th of one cc) is given daily for four or more months. Later the frequency is reduced to every other day, and still later—sometimes after as much as a
year—to twice a week. Pancreatin : This is an extract of various pancreatic digestive enzymes, normally needed
to digest fats, proteins and sugar. Gerson patients don’t consume those substances; however,
these enzymes are vitally important in the digestion and elimination of tumor tissue. The dosage
is 3 tablets of.325mg each four times a day—one after each meal, plus an additional dose in
mid-afternoon. For exceptionally large tumors 2-3 tablets a day of a more concentrated 1200mg
pancreatin may be added to the patient’s medication. Some patients cannot tolerate pancreatin and
have to do without it. Dr. Gerson also omitted pancreatin for sarcoma cases. Acidol Pepsin : These tablets supply digestive stomach juices, badly needed by patients
suffering from chronic diseases, who tend to have insufficient stomach acid and digestive pepsin. As a result they have poor appetite and poor digestion. Since the Gerson treatment is based on the
patient’s optimum intake of food and juices, the stomach needs help for the intake and digestion
of food. Acidol Pepsin aids protein digestion and the absorption of iron, while helping to eliminate

Gastrointestinal Tract (Digestive and Eliminative Systems)
Your gastrointestinal tract (stomach to anus) is the “hub” of your body. When it fails to do its job because of impactions and inflammation, this can
weaken and starve the body. When the GI tract fails, the rest of the body will
soon follow. The following are just some of the side effects of its failure:
Malabsorption and starvation
Gastritis, enteritis and/or colitis
Diverticulitis (when “pockets” are formed from impactions)
Gas
DiarrheaConstipation (also connected to adrenal medulla weakness)
Parasites (worms, and others; the unfriendly type)
Crohn’s disease
GI cancer (now second most prevalent type of cancer in the U.S.)
When the GI Tract becomes toxic, it sends toxicity to all parts of the
body
Appendicitis
Lymphatic congestion (blocks proper lymphatic elimination)
Nausea upon eating
Lymphatic System (Immune and Eliminative “Septic” System)
The job of the lymphatic system is to clean and protect the body. This system
is just as important
as the blood system. The lymphatic system is the most
neglected and needs the most attention. All diseases begin when this system
becomes overburdened and fails. The following are just some of the
noticeable effects:
Colds and flu-like symptoms
Many childhood diseases (mumps, measles, etc.) Most respiratory congestive issues
Sinus congestion
Earaches
Hearing loss (causing the need for tubes in the ears)
Sore throats
Cysts and tumors

Kidneys and Bladder (Eliminative/Urinary Tract System)
These organs are vital in your body’s elimination process. Without proper
elimination of metabolic wastes, both cellular and digestive, toxic by-products
will cause auto-intoxication of cells. This causes cellular weakness and death. The following are side effects or warning signals that your body experiences
when the kidneys and bladder become weak. Bags under your eyes
Vision problems
Lower back weakness and pain
Kidney stones (contributing factor to parathyroid weakness)
Urinary tract infections—UTI (burning upon urination)
Loss of bladder control (incontinence)
Difficulty urinating (can be urinary tract infections as well)
Increased acidosis
Dehydration
Edema (contributing factor)
Toxemia
Headaches
Can affect your breathing
Heart and Circulation (The Circulatory System)
Many conditions that affect the heart and circulation have already been
covered under various glands and their effects upon the body. This is because
many conditions within the body are reflex conditions that have an
origination point other than the obvious symptoms. Examples of this are
mitral valve prolapse and heart arrhythmia, which have their origins in the
parathyroid, where connective tissue and the nervous system can be affected. The adrenal glands, of course, play a vital role in the nerve that feeds the
heart. Cholesterol will plaque itself if the adrenal glands are weak and
acidosis goes unchecked. All this can lead to strokes, heart attacks and
blockages in the vascular system. One must think this out and take all thisinto consideration when dealing with the heart and circulatory issues. The
following are some of the symptoms the body will manifest when these heart
and circulation tissues are affected:
Poor circulation leads to cellular death (which leads to a multitude of
problems)
Gray hair
Memory loss
Chest pain or angina
Feeling of “heaviness” or “weight” on top of your chest
Petechiae (bruising easily)
Blood Regurgitation (back flow) from weak valves (causing chest pain)
High or low systolic blood pressure (adrenal gland relationship)
High diastolic (bottom number)
Tired feeling (especially during exercise)
S.O.B. (shortness of breath) from water buildup, congestive heart failure
(CHF), and myocardial edema (fluids around the heart). Water build-up
is an inflammatory issue from acidosis. Low endurance (also adrenal gland relationship)
Cramping or spasms upon exercise
Contributes to lymphatic blockages, causing sluggish lymphatic issues
All types of heart arrhythmias (however, thyroid and adrenal gland
weakness is mostly to blame.) Skin (Integumentary and Eliminative System)
Your skin is the largest eliminative organ you have. It’s supposed to eliminate
as much waste each day as your kidneys and bowels. However, when the
liver, bowels and lymphatic system is backed up, this overburdens the skin
and it becomes sluggish and impacted. This causes many of the skin
conditions that exist. On top of this, when the thyroid is weak it becomes
more difficult to sweat. This inhibits proper elimination through the skin even
more. A breakdown of the skin’s normal functions will result in:
Skin rashes
Dry skin
Eczema
Boils, pimples, etc. (related to lymphatic system)
Dermatitis
PsoriasisSplitting of the skin
Lungs (Respiratory System)
Breathing and the lungs are how we bring the biggest factors of energy and
oxidation into our body. Without oxygen, of course, you would die. Oxygen
helps elements to transmute into other elements or compounds. Transmutation is the true process of nature. The following body language
obviously indicates lung congestion, toxicity and acidosis:
Bronchitis and pneumonia
Asthma
S.O.B. (shortness of breath)
Chronic coughing
Emphysema
C.O.P.D. (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease)
Pain in lung areas
Fatigue (also thyroid and adrenal gland weakness)
Low endurance (also caused from adrenal gland weakness)
Sore throat (begins here)
High carbon dioxide levels
Toxemia

cleansing puts you on the road to Super Health. Beware of Harmful Salt
Would you use sodium, a caustic alkali, to season
your food. Or chlorine, a poisonous gas. “Ridiculousquestions,” you say. “Nobody would be foolhardy
enough to do that. ” Of course not. But the shocking
truth is that most people do just that because they don’tknow that these powerful chemicals constitute the
inorganic crystalline compound known as salt. For
centuries, the expression “salt of the earth” has beenused to designate something good and essential. This
idea is erroneous. Salt may actually help to bury you. 15
The Bragg Healthy Lifestyle followed daily will help you last a long lifetime. Salt: Some Startling Facts:
•Salt is not a food. There is no more justification
for its culinary use than there is for potassium
chloride, calcium chloride, barium chloride or any
other chemical on the druggist’s shelf. •Salt cannot be digested, assimilated or utilized
by the body. Salt has no nutritional value. Salt has
no vitamins, no organic minerals and no nutrientsof any kind. Instead, it is harmful and causes trouble
in the kidneys, bladder, heart, arteries, veins and
blood vessels. Salt is the main cause of waterloggedtissues that cause swelling and edema (dropsy). •Salt causes serious medical problems and can act
as a heart poison. It also irritates the nervous system. •Salt acts to rob calcium from the body, bones,
etc. and attacks mucous lining throughout the body. If salt is so dangerous to health, why is it used so
widely. Mainly because it’s a habit ingrained over the
years. But it’s a habit based on a serious misconception
that the body needs it. Many people never eat salt andnever miss it (
we don’t own a salt shaker ). Your wise body
doesn’t want it. Once a person is free of the salt habit,
salt becomes repulsive to the taste as tobacco is to a
nonsmoker. Among certain animal species, salt acts as apoison (particularly in the case of fowl), and pigs have
been known to die after ingesting large doses of salt. How Did the Salt Habit Originate. Gustav von Bunge, a biochemist, explains that in
prehistoric times there was a balance of organic sodiumand potassium minerals in the earth. But continuedrainfall over centuries washed away the more solubleorganic sodium salts. In time, many land-grown foodsand soils became deficient in sodium, but high inpotassium. The result was that animals and humansdeveloped a craving for something to replace thismineral deficiency. They found an ineffective and highly
dangerous substitute in salt (inorganic sodium chloride). 16
Watermelon and its seeds (chew or grind them) contain cucurbocitrin
that helps reduce swelling (edema) due to excess retained water from
salt and the huge variety of salty processed foods Am ericans eat. Salt Causes Edema, Kidney Problems, etc. Swallowing salt to obtain natural organic sodium is
like taking inorganic calcium to get calcium. Both are
chemicals and neither can be assimilated. All inorganic
chemicals cause all the body harm, digestive organs, etc. That’s why the body sends out sudden SOS thirst signals,
calls for water, after salt is eaten. The stomach is reacting
to salt and demands water to quickly flush the salt outthrough the kidneys (page
55). Imagine what effect this
has on the delicate kidney filters. Millions suffer from
serious kidney problems. Of all body organs, kidneys are
most affected by salt. What happens when more salt is
eaten than kidneys can eliminate. The kidneys break
down, the excess salt is deposited in various body parts,especially lower extremities. To protect its tissues against
salt, the body automatically seeks to dilute it by pooling
water in needed areas to help flush out salt. As tissuesbecome waterlogged, swelling occurs in feet, ankles and
legs causing edem a and dr opsy. Salt
(sodium chloride ) also
causes puffy eyelids and water bags below lower eyelids. Salt Affects Millions With High Blood Pressure
Salt is harmful to the kidneys and heart. In some heart
conditions even small amounts of salt are dangerous. The heart muscle is governed by the balance of natural,
organic sodium (found in kelp, celery, fruits, vegetables, etc. ) and calcium salts in the blood. Salt upsets this vital
action, increasing the heartbeat and causing high blood
pressure which affects millions, plus liver and kidneydisease. Statistics show  Japan ese have hi ghest salt intake
and high bl ood pressure problem s. What cau ses this. Medical Science recognizes many causes: salt, diet, stressand toxic substances as smoking, insecticides, drugs, food
additives and pollutants. To protect yourself from these
caustic agents, exclude all harmful agents possible fromyour environment. The major cause of high blood
pressure you can remedy: don’t eat salt, instead use kelp,
herbs, garlic and Bragg Aminos Seasoning. 17
The best way to lengthen life is to avoid shortening it - stop salt. It’s strange that some men will drink and eat anything put
before them, but check very carefully the oil put in their car. Are you in Health Bankruptcy. If so, you need a Health Overhaul. Up to now, we have been talking about causing high
blood pressure in the average person. But how about
the effects of salt on those millions suffering from our
country’s most prevalent ailment, obesity. Here is acritical area for research, because excess weight is known
to be frequently accompanied by high blood pressure. Is there a link between the overweight individual’s highblood pressure and his salt intake. The answer is ahead. The Myth of the “Salt Lick”
Is a low-salt diet a deficient diet. Don’t we need
plenty of salt in our diets to keep us in top physical
condition. This is a popular notion, but is it true. People
will tell you that animals will travel for miles to visit socalled “salt licks”. I investigated salt licks where wild
forest animals congregate from miles around to lick the
soil. Although all of these sites were known as “salt licks”,the one chemical property they all had in common was
a complete absence of sodium chloride. There was
absolutely no organic or inorganic sodium at the saltlicks. But they all had an abundance of other organic
minerals and nutrients which the animals craved. Why Cows are Given Large Amounts of Salt
A man who puts his investment in a dairy farm is in
it to make all the profit he can. Dairy farmers found by
giving cows salt blocks to lick, they drink more water. The more water they drink, the more milk produced. Most cows are sick, mass fed and drugged. web:nomilk. com
But the result is that the average quart of milk
contains the extremely high content of 12 grams ( 1,500
mgs) of salt per quart. Go past any American school and
look at the children. You will be amazed by how manyof them are overweight, lack stamina and the spark of
youth. Most are heavy drinkers of commercial milk, and
most foods they eat contain high concentrations of salt. 18
Pure water is the essential fluid of life. the solvent of
our ills and the deliverer of a radiant long life. Use your willpower and better judgement to select and eat
only the foods which are best for you, regardless of the ridicule
or gibes of your friends or acquaintances. – Dr. Richard T. FieldAmericans Are Salt-A-Holics. Go into supermarkets and look at canned, bottled
and frozen foods. All of them are loaded with salt. Plus
there’s salt in milk, ice cream, prepared vegetables andmost commercial foods. Add it all up and you can see
why heart disease is the # 1 killer in America. We are a
nation of salt-a-holics. Cheese, frozen and cannedvegetables, breads, potato and corn chips, and most all
popular foods are saturated with salt. Even commercial
baby foods contain salt. Read labels. Don’t buy salt. Death Valley Hike Proved Salt Dangerous
Most people have the preconceived idea that salt lost
through perspiring must be immediately replaced. Many
factories supply salt tablets to their workers. They
mistakenly believe these are helpful. But are these salttablets necessary. In my opinion: “NO. ”
To prove definitely to myself that I did not need salt
during extremely hot weather, I went to Death Valley,
California, one of the hottest spots in the entire world
during July and August. On my first test I hired 10husky, strong young college athletes to make the hike
in Death Valley from Furnace Creek Ranch to Stovepipe
Wells, a distance of approximately
30 miles. The boys had salt tablets and all the water they could
drink. and a station wagon filled with plenty of food
that contained salty foods like bread, buns, crackers,cheese, luncheon meats and hot dogs. They each ate,
drank and took as many salt tablets as they desired. I
had no salt, no food, only water during the 30 mile hike. We began the hike on a sw

he relaxes like a cat he will fall sa[ely. A building

collapse  in storm or earthquake, and a car
without the cushion - ing of tires and springs will
soon come apart on the  road. The mind has just che same powers, for it has
give  and can absorb shocks like water or a
cushion. But chis giving way toan opposing force
is not at all the  same thing as running away. A

and endoses  yo ur hand. A shock  absorber does not
fall clown likc a bowling -pin when  struck; it gives,
and yet stays in the same place. To run away is
the only defense  of something rigid  against an
ovenvhelming force. Therefore the good  shock
absorber has not only "give," but also stability  or
"weight. " This  weight  is likewise  a function  of the mind,
and
appears in the much -misunderstood phenomenon
of laziness. Significantly enough, nervous and
frustrated  people are always busy, even in being
idle, such idle - ness  being  the "laziness"  of fear,
not of rest. But the

mind -body  is a system  which  conserves and accumu -
lates energy. '\Nhilc doing this it is propcrly
lazy. When the energy is stored, it is justas happy to
move,  and yet to move skillfully -along the line of
least re - sistancc. Thus it is not only necessity,
bue also lazi - ness, which is the mothcr of
invention. One may ob - serve the unhurried,
"heavy" movcmcms of a skillful  laborer at some
hard task, and even in going against  gravity the
good rnountaincer uses gravity, taking  slow,
hcavy stridcs. He seems to tack up the slope,  like
a sailboat  against  thc wincl. In the light of these principies, how <loes the
mind  absorb suffering. It discovers  that
resistance and escape -the ''J'' process -is a false
move. The pain is inescapable, and resistance as a
defense only makes it  worse; the whole systern is
jarred by thc shock. Sce- ing the impossibility of
this course, it muse act ac- cording to  its nature -
remain  stable  and absorb. To remain stablc  is to refrain from trying to
sepa - rare yourself from a pain because you know
that you  cannot. Running away from  fear is  fear,
fighting pain  is pain,  trying  to be brave   is being  sea
red. If the mind  is in pain, the mind is pain. The
thinker has no othcr  form than bis thought. There is no escape. But so long as you are not
aware of the inseparability of  thinkcr  and
thought,  you will try to escape. From this follows, quite naturally, absorption. It is no effort; the mind does it by itself. Seeing
that  there  is no escape  from  the pain,  the mind
yields  to

it, absorbs it, and becomes conscious of just
pain  without any "I" fecling it or resisting it. It
cxperi - ences pain in the same complete,
unselfconscious way  in which it cxpcriences
plcasure. Pain is the nature  of this present
moment, and J can only live in this moment. Sometimes, when resistance ceases, the pain
simply  goes away or dwindles toan easily
tolerable ache. At other times it remains, but the
absence of any resist - ancc brings about  a way of
fccling pain  so unfamiliar  as to be hard to

Q: According to the text, what is the ultimate goal of the brain's rational thinking?,
A: The text suggests that the brain's rational thinking is actually counterproductive, leading to frustration and unhappiness. The author argues that the brain's function is to serve the body, not the other way around.
Q: What is the author's view on the concept of materialism?,
A: The author does not advocate for materialism, but rather argues that the emphasis on material possessions and desires is a source of unhappiness and insecurity.
Q: What is the author's stance on the idea of defining and understanding experience?,
A: The author suggests that it is impossible to define or understand experience, as it is constantly changing and cannot be captured by language or concepts. He argues that our attempts to define and understand it lead to frustration and unhappiness.
Q: What is the author's view on the concept of the "I" or the self?,
A: The author argues that there is no "I" or self, but rather, the experience is the only reality. He claims that the idea of a separate "I" is an illusion and that we must abandon this notion to find true peace and understanding.
Q: What is the author's stance on the concept of escape and resistance?,
A: The author argues that trying to escape or resist pain, fear, or other unpleasant experiences only leads to more pain and suffering. He suggests that instead, one must learn to absorb and accept the present moment, rather than trying to flee from it.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>When you

 Unfortunately, the larger the social groupings in human history, the greater the interferences in such  liberty. The rise of the first
civilizations were attended by such dehumanizing devices as slavery, and although slavery has been condemned for over a
hundred years, human beings have become increasingly subordinate
to the vast social groups, with the crises of coercion expressed in the totalitarian regimes. Under such conditions, humanization is thwarted. If human
beings are not thugs and bullies, they become passive and uncaring,
which is a form of dehumanization. But the effects of overcrowding,
inevitable with the rise of the gigantic modern metropolis, are more insidious. Even in rats, spared the precarious balance of the human mind, overcrowding results in an tihuman parallels—in killing and
maiming without reason, in a neglect of the young, in queer sexual
practices, and in inexplicable bursts of communal madness. In its
over-plentifulness, human life is becoming dangerously cheap. The
calculations of over-kill, in the event of a nuclear war, are symptomatic of such cheapening. Quite apart from the increasing pressure on the resources
offered by nature, the impact of overcrowding on the environment
has the antihuman consequence of  leading to a disorderly, ugly
environment. This is evident enough even where order prevails—in architecture, where the pressure of economics and maximal utilization of space has filled the cities with concrete and glass boxes devoid of human meaning. Where the population pressure
results in a breakdown of order, the results are appalling, in the
clutter and dirt of modern cities, in the noise and enervating bustle, in the congestions of crowd and traffic, in the pollution of the air, in the loss of sunlight, not. to mention those hideous consequences of urban disorder, the slums and semi-slums that fester around all
cities, and increasingly within them. As the crowded cities have spread, forever consuming more of
the countryside, so nature has become increasingly devastated, and
rendered meaningless. It is one of the most depressing observations to find the degree to which city inhabitants, including the young, come to lose all contact with nature, to the point where they feel lost
and awkward, if not actually listless and violent, when brought into
contact with what is precariously le ft of nature. The fact is that
unless nature is free and uncorrupted, it does lose much of its
meaning to the human being. For one thing, the sense of an invigorating purity one can experience in unspoilt and beautiful scenes, is ruled out—by as little as a carelessly discarded wrapper! Since the appreciation of purity, as much as beauty and harmony,
are essential Humanizing attributes, this loss of environmental
purity results in an impure human being, necessarily more callous, more able to accept the hideousness of the environment in which he finds himself. Anthropologists are agreed about few things, but most of them
concur that large-scale conflict—what has come to be known as
war—is a relatively recent occurren ce. It has increased in severity
and extent, and in its dehumani zation, as population pressure has
increased. What then is the reason fo r this extraordinary soaring in
the human population, itself a recent phenomenon? If the human species has existed for hundreds of thousands of years, and a
human-like primate for millions, this crisis of over-population is all
the more extraordinary. The hominids of the Palaeolithic roamed over most of the
world. If it was only a matter of food, then surely they would have stumbled upon conditions in some part of the world where the kind
of rapid increase we are witnessing would have occurred. All the
evidence indicates that the hominids,  like the higher primates, have
never known a population explosion. They have been as a group, restricted breeders. Gorillas a nd chimpanzees maintain stable
populations; overcrowding only comes from human encroachment into their habitats. It cannot be disease, in the form of the sweeping
and devastating epidemics known in the crowded and unsanitary
conditions of the urban past, that kept their numbers down, for the
surviving bands of gorillas, already seriously menaced by human intrusion, are superbly healthy. One way in which population stability is maintained in such
primates, is by varying the length of nurture. Nursing mothers are
not sexually harassed by the males, so that if nurture is prolonged, the occasions for breeding are reduced. The males are not inconvenienced, for although ever-ready to mount a receptive female, they only become sexually aroused on signals of one kind or another from the females, and can spend a life of bachelor
uninvolvement if no such signals come. More usually, nursing persists long enough after birth to cut
down the breeding cycles for a particular female so that not more than a few offspring result. With  the hazards of babyhood in the
wild, this maintains a stable population. If the population increases,
mothers nurture their young for longer, to such an extent that the
number of offspring can be considerably reduced. In all primates, including the human, there is in fact a clash between the hormones involved in suckling and nursing, and those of breeding, so that the
female has no interest in sex during nurture, a device of obvious biological advantage, for if female mammals were more interested
in sex than in breeding, the line would have become extinct early,
an interest which little girls with their little dolls still demonstrate, no matter how they behave later. Is the human an exception to this primate breeding control. Could it not be that the stampede of over population is the outcome of a deranged breeding pattern, as abnormal as the patterns of eating
and sex already mentioned? It is commonly assumed, with the
support of scientific authority, that the human female has lost the cyclical nature of the oestral cycl e, and thereby the female decision
regarding the time of coitus. The human female is described as 'open'. This is a cultural falsification, a device to provide the human
male with the ready access to sexual relief he has come to require,
for there is definite evidence that  women have a peak desire for
coitus during the oestral cycle, which implies that it is in such peaks
that the woman would best accept th e man. In thus complying with
the other primates, it would follow that the woman would also
follow the primate device of extending nurture as a means of
population control. The way in which the natural woman would do this is probably
through the pituitary gland. As population pressure increases, so the
social environment becomes less assured, anxiety increases, and child care intensified. It requires no conscious observation, no
reasoning. Intuitively, the woman senses the threat of population
pressure to the species. There is some indication that primitive groups, such as those in the Amazon basin, had achieved stability by such means, before the interrupti ons of civilized men. But it is to
be noted that this control depends on a sufficient degree of human
sensitivity, both on the part of  the woman, in order to sense
intuitively the social situation, and on the part of the man to respect her increased preoccupation with child  nurture. A loss of sensitivity,
and the device breaks down. The situation is complicated by the fact that the woman, unlike
the other primate females, is largely conditioned by her cortex. If
she exists in a society wherein th e woman is considered 'open', so
she acts, and believes herself to be  open to male whim and fancy. This is true also regarding the orgasm, which is an essentially male preoccupation forced upon the gene ral sexual pattern, to the point
where orgasmically harassed women become bad mothers, failing in
what is after all the pre-eminent fe male biological duty. The fact of
the situation is that while na ture has placed the essential
responsibility of breeding on the female, it is the male in the human situation who has come to decide the sexual pattern, and this pattern
is essentially geared to male sexual pleasure, freed from the entanglements of love, and even of breeding care, which is as good
a definition of lust as one can find. Rejecting the existential evid ence, one can suppose that
humanization occurred in humanly congenial conditions, and that
sexual restraint on the part of the male was a natural human ability, not the psychological liability it has been claimed to be, in which
case the size of the human population in terms of the environment
would be controlled as it is in other primates—by a greater preoccupation with breeding and l ess with sex. Under existential conditions, the reverse seems to apply; the more anxious and
harassing the times, the more peopl e breed. Evidently, something
has happened which has inflamed sexual desire, to the point where
it overrides the biological perimeters of the species, and this
something may well be traceable to the amines already mentioned as originating in a faulty and inhuman diet, combined with a general humanizing impoverishment characteristic of civilization. Premature sexual interests in children can often be simply traced to wrong feeding, especially in animal foods. Since the Ice Ages, the abnormal amines have been affecting
the mind, but on the whole, human beings have not become beset by a demented sexual urge. A hard life, and a hard faith, no doubt helped. In fact, in early times, human breeding may have been so restrained, that religion intervened to boost breeding in order to

I became a vegetarian in 1967, because I heard it would heighten my consciou sness. It all made sense to me right away,
especially when I realized that the way I had been eating was contri buting to the death of innocent animals, and that I could eat in a
way that might be healthier, raise my awareness, and not harm other c reatures that lived on the earth. I went through a lot of changes during the first four years on a vegeta rian diet. I ate a lot of junk food in the beginning, as long
as it wasn’t meat, fish, or eggs, and that made it easy for me to stick with  the diet. Then I started to switch from regular commercial
sweets to organic health-food sweets and organic goat’s milk ice cream. I tried macrobiotics in those years, which was interesting
but very hard for me to stay on. Against the advice of three doctors who said they would put their reput ation on the line that I couldn’t survive for more than
18 months, I became a fruitarian in 1971 for a lot of the same reasons that I became a vegetarian. I ate only raw fruit, which didn’t include nuts or seeds or dried, frozen, of dehydrated fruit. I followed this diet v ery strictly for eight years. I didn’t know anything about the fat content of the avocados and olives I pi cked and ate raw from the trees. (Y es, I did
actually like the taste of one particular type of olive. If I allowed the s mooth green ones to ripen on the tree until they were black and
shriveled, I enjoyed their taste and ate quite a few at a time). I also ha d never heard of food combining, so I generally mixed
anything that was available on a given day. For example, I might eat av ocados, dates, tomatoes, and citrus within a few hours of
each other, although I didn’t do that often. I read a few books about fruitarianism, like Arnold Ehret’s Mucusless-Diet Healing System,  and then I waited to see if I
would have experiences like they described in the book: almost unlimited en ergy, and incredible strength and endurance. I did not
get the results I was hoping for after eight years. I still had sinus  problems, along with gas and mucus. For the next couple years, I ate raw foods, with mostly fruit. I went to see a  lot of alternative doctors, including ayurvedic
practitioners and others in the next few years. I had a lot of tests and a l ot of dental work done. A number of these alternative and
ayurvedic doctors suggested very strongly that animal products would be be neficial for me, as well as spicier foods, because I was
too yin or cold, and I needed yang, heating foods. I did try chicken, fish, and eggs, with cayenne pepper and very little f ruit, for about six months in the winter of 1985. I didn’t
feel much worse when I ate those foods, but I really didn’t like the idea of  consuming innocent animals, and I didn’t feel stronger and
healthier like all the doctors said I would. So I started eating sweet fru its again. In 1992 I met a Natural Hygienist who explained to me about food combining. I  bought Dr. Shelton’s book and started eating
raw fruits and vegetables at certain times in certain combination s, as described in his book. I did this for about eight years until one night after eating some cher imoyas and capotes I woke up after about two hours of
sleep and couldn’t fall back to sleep. I was very uncomfortable the wh ole night, trying to relax, massaging myself, and attempting to
stretch. Finally, I did an enema at around 4 am and felt a little better. I couldn’t figure out what had caused this, and I thought it
might be a fluke. Well, the same thing happened the next night. That was  much more difficult, because I only got an hour of sleep
both nights, and I was exhausted. It was hard to think and figure out what to do n ext. I was eating all raw fruits and vegetables in combination, which inc luded daily nuts, seeds, and avocados, and I was eating a
late last meal of sweet fruit around 10 pm, which was pretty close to when I  went to sleep. The main reason I ate that late was that I
found it impossible to sleep if I didn’t. So I figured I would eat some raw swe et fruit, which was my favorite food. I didn’t sleep for
four nights straight, and on the fourth night I started to panic. I calle d the paramedics and told them I might be having a heart attack. I couldn’t tell what was going on. They took me to St. John’s hospital, where I  was tested for hours. Doctors there finally told me
that my heart and cholesterol were perfect. The only problem they could fi nd in all their extensive testing was that I had a B 12
deficiency. I left St. John’s in the morning and went to the W estside Alternativ e Center, which did a lot more very expensive testing. The
tests cost me as much as the hospital bills from St. John’s, which ca me to a few thousand dollars. After about a week, I received the
results from the tests from the alternative clinic, and they said I  had a B 12 /folic acid deficiency. I took B 12  injections in my butt for a
few days, and then they put me on folic acid supplements. I started asking everyone I knew for help and information, because I st ill didn’t know what had caused my inability to sleep. I
also wasn’t sure what I should be eating, because I had been eati ng the same way for 20 years straight. I knew a 30-year raw food
chiropractor who told me not to eat any sweet fruits and to get my B 12  from Standard Process Labs. I felt a lot better for a while. That chiropractor died in a bicycle accident, and I went back to eating swee t fruit. I tried different cleanses, including the Arise and Shine one-mont h cleanse, which I followed to the letter. I got really weak
during the final week of the cleanse, where you don’t eat any food. I called t he company to ask about it, and they thought it was
some type of parasite like candida. I went to a doctor, who said that I could send a st ool sample to the Great Smokies laboratory if
I wanted to know for sure whether I had candida. The test results showed tha t I had two strains of candida at the highest level. All
my symptoms made sense to the doctor, because she had recovered from candida an d had written a book about it. They say with candida that fruit feeds it, and I ate a lot of fruit. I went  on a long, expensive candida cleanse for six months and
felt pretty lousy the whole time. I ate nothing sweet for six months, not  even carrots or lemons, and I had to rotate my foods every
four days. I took a lot of supplements, including Super Garlic, Primal Defens e, some expensive flora from England, and many
others. I had a really difficult time during those six months. I found it hard to ge t any work done, because all my symptoms had gotten
more extreme. I was so uncomfortable. I stayed with it for the full six mon ths and then took another stool test, which showed that I
still had candida albicans at the highest level. The doctor suggested t aking prescription drugs, and I started back on a diet with sweet
fruits. I tried numerous other diets, supplements, and cleanses during the next  few years, until I heard Doug Graham and Rozi
Gruben speak at an event called Raw Passion. Rozi talked about what happens t o the blood when we eat certain foods. Doug said
that it isn’t the sugar in fruits, but rather the fat that peo ple with candida consume that inhibits the body’s ability to get th e sugar out
of the blood. I didn’t know whether what they were saying was absolutely what was  happening with me, but I knew I liked both of them
immediately. They seemed to have a lot of conviction about what they were  saying, and they definitely had done extensive research
and discovered a lot of information. I started to reflect on my situation. No one, out of the many, many doctors I had c onsulted with over the years had helped me
make any health improvements. I thought I was on the best diet I could t hink of, but I wasn’t feeling well. These two people looked
very healthy. It seemed


 re asons: situations, people, politics, policies,
and attitudes change over time. Unless a  specific  scale is used as reference, the numbers obtaine d will be
arbitrary. All calibrations in this book were made in reference to the Map of
Consciousness. For instance: “On a scale of 1 to 1,000, where 700
represents Enlig htenment, this _______ calibrates at _______.” If a specific
scale is not spec ified, testers may get astounding numbers ove r 1,000 and
progressively higher numbers with subsequent tests. On this scale, no
person w ho ever  existed on this planet calibrated over 1,000, the  calibration
of all the great A vatars. People tend to use dif ferent sensory modalities when they hold something
in mind— that is, visual, sensory, auditory, or feeling. “Y our mother” could
therefore be how she looked, felt, sounded, and so on; or “H enry Ford”could be calibrated as a father, as an industrialist, for his impact on
America, for his anti-Semitism, and so forth. One can specify context and s tick to a prevailing modality. T he same
team using the same technique w ill get results that are internally  consistent. Expertise develops with practice. The bes t attitude is one of clinical detachment, posing a statement with
the prefix statement: “In the na me of the highest good, _____ _________
calibrates as true. Over 100? Over 200?” and so on. The conte xtualization
“in the highest g ood” increases accuracy, because it transcends self-serving
personal interest and motives. There are some people, howe ver, who are incapable of a scientific,
detached attitude and unable to be objective, and for whom the kinesiologic
method will therefore not be accurate. Dedication and intention to the truth
have to be given  priority over personal opinions and trying to prove them as
being “right.”
LIMIT A TIONS
Approximately 10 percent of the population is not able to use the
kinesiologic testing technique for as-yet-unknown reasons. The test is
accurate only if the test subjec ts themselves calibrate over 200 and the
intention of the use of the test is  integrous and also calibrates ov er 200. The
requirement is one of detached objectivity and alignment with truth rather
than subjective opinion. Sometimes married couples, also for reasons as yet
undiscovered, ar e unable to use each other as test subjects and may have to
find a third person to be a test partner. DISQUALIFICA TION
Both sk epticism (cal. 160) and cynicism calibrate below 200 because
they reflect negative prejudgment. In contrast, true inquiry requires an open
mind an d hone sty devoid of intellectual vanity. Negative studies of
behavioral kinesiology all  cali brate below 200 (usually a t 160), as do the
investigators themselves.That even famous professors ca n and do calibrate below 200 may seem
surprising to the average person. Thus, negative studies are a consequence of negative bias. As an
example, Francis Crick’ s research design that led to the disco very of the
double-helix pa ttern of DNA calibrated at 440. His last resea rch design,
which was intended to prove that consciousness was just a product of
neuronal activity, calibrated at only 135. The failu re of investigators who themselves, or by faulty research design,
calibrate below 200 confirms th e truth of the very methodology they claim
to disprove. They “should” get negative results, so they do—which,
paradoxically, proves the accu racy of the test to detect the dif ference
between unbiased integrity and nonintegrity. Any new  discovery may upset th e apple cart and be viewed as a  threat to
the status quo of prevailing b elief systems. That a clinical science of
consciousness has emer ged tha t validates spiritual Reality is, of course,
going to precipitate resistance, as it is actually a direct confro ntation with
the dom inion o f the narcissistic core of the ego itself, which is innately
presumptuous and opinionated. Below consciousness level 200, comprehension is limited by the
dominance of lower mind, whic h is capable of recognizing facts  but not yet
able to grasp what is meant by the term truth  ( it conf uses r es interna  with
r es externa ) and that truth has physiological accompaniments dif ferent from
those of falsehoo d. Additionally, truth is intuited, as evidenced by the use of
voice analysis, the study of body language, papillary response, EEG
changes in the brain, fluctuations in breathing and blood pressure, galvanic
skin res ponse, dowsing, and even the Huna technique of measuring the
distance that the aura radiates from the body. Some people have a very
simple technique that utilizes the standing body like a pendulum (fall
forward with truth and backward with falsehood). From a more ad vanced contextualization, the principles that p revail are
that T ru th cann ot be disproved by falsehood any more than light can be
disproved by darkness. The non linear is not subject to the limitations of the
linear. T ruth is of a dif ferent paradigm from logic and thus is not
“provable,” as that which is  provable calibrates only in the 400s. Consciousness-research kinesiology operates at level 600, which is at the
interface of the linear and the nonlinear dimensions.A P P E N D I X  B

judgments. A calibration of 970  is not “better than” 610. In fac t, a teacher
or w riting at 605 (or 310, for that matter!) is likely to be mor e helpful to
mor e people than one at 970. The mind is sever ely limited by its dualistic
natur e and pr ojects its judgme nt of better/worse onto a simp le number,
ignoring the overall context, which is nonlinear. By comparison, one would
not say that the highest elevation on an altimeter is “better tha n” another
elevation. If a p lane needs to la nd, or avoid a pocket of turbulence, a wise
pilot gui des it to whatever elevation the situation r equir es. The same is true
in medicine. W ise physicians know the right medicine (and in the right
dose) to  apply to a given malady. They ar e car eful not to pr escr ibe the most
powerful tr eatment in many cases, because the patients wouldn’ t be able to
handle it. Just so, each ener gy field serves perfectly in a certain context. Ther e is no “goo d” or “bad” en er gy field; ther e is only the needed wisdom
to discern which ener gy is best for a given situation. Dr. Hawkins told me
one time, “Many people can’ t handle love, so it’ s best to give them
something else.”
While the scale of 1 to 1,000 i s linearly pr esented in or der to  help the
mind to  grasp the existence of attractor patterns of differing  degr ees of
power, the overall terrain of the Map is nonlinear, in that everything withinit is of e qual va lue. A tr ee is not better than a bir d, nor a bir d  better than
the wind. Each makes its vital contribution to the evolution of life. Just so, each of the teachers an d writings on the lists below make their
contribution. Th ey all calibrate at the rar e levels of 600-plus o n the Map. These levels of consciousness ar e beyond duality and ther efor e transmit
trustworthy spir itual guidance. The fact that one scriptur e is at 600 or 700
rather t han 900 might indicate that passages wer e included in that
“canon,” which  contain anthr opomorphic depictions of God, j ustifications
of violen ce, and/or sociocultural practices inherited fr om histor ical eras. A
wise stu dent of spiritual literatur e knows, for example, that Jesus Christ’ s
Sermon on the Mount calibrates at a higher level than many oth er verses in
the N ew T estament. W e may assume that the calibration of a writing is a
composite of all its verses; some individual verses, and even chapters, may
calibrate below 200. One importance  of the following  lists is that spiritual truth is found in all

Fasting will not help you, rather it will increase your weight by a few

we were visited by Professor YS Nikolaev. Together with our

not genetically determined. " But, alas, a third fat man was after all. "Mother they have very thick, so people freak" - told
little man, looking at their elephantine children
with some fear. As it turned out, there was a fourth round one - my grandmother. More

dropped 86 pounds, and junior - 70. On admission, both were in a depressed state:
they had all the growing apathy, lethargy, dullness, headache
pain, sometimes appearing spleen. After treatment, all these
symptoms disappeared, the young men were hilarious, moving,
sociable. Currently, the brothers observe dietary regimen and
not gain weight. In these cases, we apply the so-called

162"Fractional" method of fasting-diet therapy: after
first fasting (10 - 15 days) begins the restoration of such
same duration. Then the second fasting 10 - 30 days and the same
duration of recovery, then a third course of holo-Denmark, etc. on up to 10 - 12 of alternations of hunger and nutrition, with a break of 3 - 4
months after 6 - 8 factional courses. The duration of each
course is individual and varies depending on the state

to reduce weight:
- During fasting there is a fast and safe loss

- Man is much easier to tolerate starvation, as there is no
constant feeling of hunger;
- If weight loss is not observed neither sagged nor flabby skin

can work wonders. A story about how I got rid of excess weight...
At one time I had very serious problems with being overweight. I am overweight, sat on various short-term
diet, sometimes making some progress, but then again and again
gained weight. But when my weight exceeded 100 kg, I said
myself: "Enough!" I decided to approach the matter sensibly. Day by day I methodically studied
Various books on weight loss, considered the most effective
diet, consulted with nutritionists. I have gathered a huge
number of methods and materials to reduce weight. Many of them clearly
did not act - such, I immediately discarded. Constantly sought
information on the Internet. How - that reading the information about medical
fasting, got on a site about dry fasting. Called Sergei
Ivanovich, he advised me four things: a method of careful
chewing, fasting days, cleanse the liver and intestine
and lacto-vegetarian diet. I became fanatical obstinacy
implement all recommendations. Sometimes I called Sergei Ivanovich
and consulted. And finally, I went on right track
- My weight started to decline. And, remembering about my previous experience, this time
My body began to systematically get rid of excess weight is not
short term, but forever. It has been five months since the beginning of my
systematic work on weight loss, and that the scales have begun to show
not 102 kg, as before, and 80. And my body has not been exhausted

Jose Francisco T. Beltran {Mexico}
In October of 1990 I had an automobile accident on the highway. The result was diabetes in addition of anger and stress. Giving my account exactly, it was in the month of April, 1995. 11ost 18 kilos { 40 1bs}. 1 felt weak, tired, depressed with headaches
and swelling of legs because of the kidneys,
and already I had been treated by doctors previously. I lasted a year with medicines and diets, until a day the priest of a parish
commented to me to go to a conference on Urine-therapy. It was Sonia, a Blood chemist Doctor giving a seminar. Immediately I made the decision and I went to listen to it. Jt made an impression on me. FUUng me with faith in her words was so cJear that
any doubt of the treatments did not fit me. God was healing by means of the Urine
Returning in the evening to my house I remembered but I could not
85 do the therapy, but immediately I requested God to help me start the method. The following day I spoke to Sonia the Chemist and commented to her that I had
tonsillitis. She answered me, I now have greater reason to initiate with the
therapy. I started the therapy and on the third day after the tonsillitis disappeared. This mortal disease of diabetes was taken by its roots from me and in
gratefulness to God of love, goodness and mercy I am cured. I did my fasting of 3 days. To conclude,
t presented that May 7th of this year, to get tested to see the count of my sugar. Before taking my Urine my count was 348. I was taken by surprise that my sugar was completely normal. Later and better yet, I confessed to my Medical doctor that for the last 18 days
I had not taken any of his prescribed drugs. This was after I drank between 4 and 5 glasses of Urine daily. In addition, for ten
days I was eating everything and most with sugar. Also I said to him that two days before my analysis I had loaded my body with
sugar. After eating many fresh sugar waters and foods with sugar it was a double
surprise for my doctor and for the hospital care takers. They tried to explain to me that diabetes is a traitor and that I would have to
continue doing the examination every month, to which 1 refused. Immediately I took leave of my Doctor
thanking him for receiving his medical attentions. People invigorate yourself with hope. You are not at the end of life. Give yourself to God and do this therapy in his name so you will be healed as I
will continue my fasting and prayers for all. TESTIMONY 59*
TVMOR of GAVl£ BlADD£~ D1AB£T£S. Guillermo R. Orozco {Mexico}
I am 59 years of age. I am an architect and work as a public server
for the government in the Jalisco state. As a student, I exceeded my sugar intake with cakes, taquitos, etc. In the year 1976, diverticulos in the intestine was detected in me. It caused constant sourness in my stomach. I had to resort to any medicine. In 1980, gall stones by means of the ultrasound were detected.,
I was operated in October of 1995. In 1990 it appeared to me in the left thigh a tumor,
of which It was surgically removed. On my recreational time I played American football with the U.N.A.M. J got hit and I broke the partition of my nose that later caused chronic sinusitis. This hit prevented me to breathe by the nose. f also underwent a break of the thumb of the left hand. In 1992, diabetes and high blood pressure was detected. 86 To all this I add that I have been quite a nervous and apprehensive person. tn 1990 to January of the present year, I began to take excessive medicine from
an allopathic doctor. I understand this medicine has destroyed my antibodies. Because I began with pulmonary diseases I had strong colds every year. They lasted up to two months and because of more antibiotics that they gave me,
I could not be cured. I had the luck to study " the Word of God " (the Bible). It was in the catholic Biblical institute of this city of Guac;lalajara. Within this study, 1 found the faith that Jesus gave to me. Then 1 began to request
"Give me the desire to live Jesus. Take away my tumors, give me my health. I want to preach the word you have revealed to me. Remember I have my
daughter and my wife and believe that I need to still do something for them." Jesus said these words in Getzemani:
"That does not become my will, but yours". The answer of my Jesus I did not believe. By the end of January to the present
Because of my work I was commission to the town of
Sn. Martin de Bolanos, Jalisco, in the North zone. There like always, J arrived and J made a visit to a temple of the catholic church
of that town. It is my custom that I repeated my request to Jesus Christ. 1 went to even eat at a restaurant. I took care of one lady and bought myself food without fat and just vegetables. The lady ate with me and she asked me, are you diabetic? I answered her, yes. Then she asked me, when I finish, might I say something? I answered yes why not? She said after we finish our food. I ate quickly and I asked the lady about her comment. She said to me, I am diabetic and have been almost blind,
but thanks to GOD and Urine I see welt
I could not distinguish 5 meters away. Please, I would like to take you to see a video with a teacher who lives close. I accepted and we arrived to the teacher, who took care of us and she gave her
testimony of which she alleviated herself of hypertension with the Urine-therapy. The video did not have it, but she explained to me how to initiate
the method of Urine-therapy. After returning I spent several days thinking. Then I included and understood that everything was not chance
but that was the answer of God to my request. I initiated my method of Urine-therapy (first thing in the morning). From the second day I felt best for the therapy to be routine. I felt very weiJ. FIRST FAST: I was taking drugs for the sugar and high blood pressure. the second day of fasting at night I felt bad. I went to the emergency room of the
hospital and they took a blood sample of me and my glucose level was at 110. The blood pressure was also low for me, {Normal}. 87 The following day I was with the family doctor whom I explained the method with
Urine. He said to me, it is your decision. I reduced my allopathic drugs by half as I gained control of my health. I now had feeling in my hurt thumb. I could now breathe well from my nose. The smaU baU of my tumor was smaller. I no longer had sourness in my stomach. I felt better, reanimated, I saw my daughter and my wife with interest,
as they used to be in previous days. Some symptoms are hard to live with but not impossible like before. I do not have all the data that the teacher Sonia commented on. I knew in the community that Sonia Rodriguez, gave lectures in the temples. I did not obtain full information until from a bookstore I asked for
II the Water of Life II or II Urine-therapy II. I also bought the book of
Uroterapia of Chemistry by Sonia Rodriguez which I read. SECOND FASTING:
Now I had more information, thanks to that fabulous book. Now with my symptoms I would pass them more with a conscious opinion as
everything in life we must experiment to live. I did my fasting completely. Having just as in the first fast,
I still had complications by with the drugs (1/2 doses), that I still took. I decided to now suspend the drugs totally. I did it and to this date I no longer take a single tablet. Only Urine. In this second fasting I still foUowed with doubts. I started this fasting on Holy Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. I spoke on the telephone to Paradise of health and left a message on the
answering machine, because now were the holy days. Monday of Passover,
I received a telephone call from Sonia, who gave me the attention to call me back. I congratulated her for that charisma that God has given to her. You can listen and feel a special peace in her that you do not find every day. I commented my doubts to her she invited me to one of her conferences which
I wanted to listen and had several dates to choose from. THIRD FASTING TIME
I did not have problems, my sugar analysis and hypertension is now normal and
I am going to the hospital to only check my counts. I sleep and breath well. The tumor is almost disappeared in my thigh. My thumb of my left hand now moves without a problem. I feel healthy and positive. When I go to check control of the hospital
I see people who leave with a pile of medicines. It makes me fee11ike putting a great signboard on my chest
that God says 11 I love you, drink your Urine 11
•
88 From my personal experience,
~ consider if you do drink your Urine,
faith is due to


ite three times a day for the first week. Then increase them
by two a day each week until you are doing 21 a day; which
will be at the beginning of the 10th week. If you cannot prac-
tice Rite Number One, the whirling one, the same number of
times as the others, then do it only as many times as you can
without getting too dizzy. The time will come, however, when
you can practice it the full number of 21 times. “T knew of one man who required more than a year before he
could do it that many times. But he performed the other four
without difficulty, gradually increasing the number until he
was doing the full 21 on all four. He got very splendid results. “Under certain conditions,” added the Colonel, “there are
some who find it difficult to perform Rite Number One at all,
to begin with. But after having done the other four for about
six months they are amazed at how easy it is to do Number
One. Likewise with the other Rites. If for any reason one or
more of them cannot be used, do not be discouraged; use what
you can. Results, in that case, will be a little slower, but that
is the only handicap. “If one has been recently operated on for, say, appendicitis,
or is afflicted with hernia, he should be very cautious in prac-
ticing Rites Number Two and Five. If one is very heavy, he
—18—should be cautious in the use of Number Five until his weight
has been greatly reduced. “All five of the Rites are of importance. Even though he
may not be able to perform them the prescribed number of
times the individual may rest assured that just a few times
each day will be of benefit. “If, at the end of the fourth week, one finds that he cannot
perform every one of the Rites the required number of times
he should note carefully the ones which he is forced to slight. Then, if he is performing the Five Rites in the morning he
should try to make up the deficiency in the evening. Or if he
is performing the Rites in the evening he should endeavor to
find time in the morning to catch up. In either event he should
not neglect the other Rites, and above all he should never strain
himself. If he goes about performing the Rites in an easy,
interesting manner it will not be long before he finds every-
thing working out satisfactorily, and that he is doing the Rites
the required 21 times a day. “Some people, acting on their own initiative, invent little
aids for their practices. An old fellow in India found it im-
possible for him to perform Rite Number Four properly even
once. He wouldn't be satisfied with just getting his body off
the floor; he was determined that it should reach a horizontal
position as the Rite prescribed. So he got a box about ten. inches high and two and a half feet long. Upon this he put
some bedding folded to the right size, and across this padded
box he lay flat on his back. Then, with his feet on the floor
at one end and his hands on the floor at the other he found it
quite simple to raise his body to a horizontal position. “Now while this little ‘stunt’ may not in itself have helped
the old gentleman in performing the Rite the full 21 times,
still the psychological effect of being able to raise his body as
high as the much stronger men was undoubtedly quite stimu-
lating and may have been quite beneficial. I do not particularly
recommend this old man’s aid, although it may help those who
think it impossible to make progress in any other way; but if
you have an inventive mind you will think of ways and means
to help you in performing the more difficult Rites. “These Rites are so powerful that if one were left out en-
tirely while the other four were practiced regularly the full
number of times, only the finest kind of results would be
experienced. Only one Rite alone will do wonders, as evidenced
by the Whirling Dervishes of whom we spoke. Had they spun
—19—around only a limited number of times, they would have found
themselves greatly benefitted, although they may not have
attributed their improved condition to the whirling. The fact
that they whirled from left to right and that the old men, who
no doubt whirled around less than the younger ones, were
virile and strong is ample proof that just one Rite will have
powerful effects. So if any one finds that they simply cannot
perform all five of these practices or that they cannot perform
them all the full number of times, they may still know that
good results will be experienced from what they are able to do. ”

XCIIACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
This book has been over a decade in the making. I thank foremost
those Taoist Masters who were kind enough to share their knowl-
edge with me, but never imagined it would be taught to westerners. Such is the Tao. I acknowledge a special debt to H. Reid Shaw for his encour-
agement after I had just arrived in America and for his hard work
on an initial manuscript. I thank the many contributors essential to its final form: the
artist, Susan MacKay, Gunther Weil, Rylin Malone, and all my
students for their feedback, Master T.K. Shih, Kim Wang, and
Juan Li for their fine artwork; Jeffrey Antin, and Marcia Kerwit for
their additions; my assistant Jo Ann Cutreria for typing the man-
uscript into the computer and endless help; Daniel Bobek for his
long hours at the computer, and Barbara Somerfield for her pa-
tience as my publisher. A special heartfelt thanks to Michael Winn for his selfless
labors, and for saying so eloquently and insightfully in English
what my Chinese does not permit. Without my wife Maneewan the book would have been aca-
demic. For her gifts, my gratitude and love. A WORD OF CAUTION
Any man suffering from venereal disease or any local illness of his
sexual organs or prostate gland should consult a medical doctor
and a qualified instructor of Taoist Esoteric Yoga before practicing
the methods taught here.TABLE OF CONTENTS
