point of space and years away in point of time.
If you decide to climb a particular flight of stairs, because that is the likely
event to follow the fulfillment of your desire, then you must restrict the
action to climbing that particular flight of stairs. Should your attention
wander off, bring it back to climbing that flight of stairs, and keep on do -
ing so until the imaginary action has all the solidity and distinctness of re -
ality.
The idea must be maintained in the mind without any sensible effort on
your part. You must, with the minimum of effort permeate the mind with
the feeling of the wish fulfilled.
Drowsiness facilitates change because it favors attention without effort,
but it must not be pushed to the state of sleep in which you no longer are
able to control the movements of your attention. But a moderate degree

A most effective way to embody a desire is to assume the feeling of the
wish fulfilled and then, in a relaxed and drowsy state, repeat over and
over again like a lullaby, any short phrase which implies fulfillment of your
desire, such as, “Thank you, thank you, thank you” as though you ad -
dressed a higher power for having given you that which you desired.
I know that when this course comes to an end on Friday many of you
here will be able to tell me you have realized your objectives. Two weeks
ago I left the platform and went to the door to shake hands with the audi -
ence. I am safe in saying at least 35 out of a class of 135 told me that
which they desired when they joined this class they had already realized.
This happened only two weeks ago. I did nothing to bring it to pass save
to give them this technique of prayer. You need do nothing to bring it to
pass – save apply this technique of prayer.
With your eyes closed and your physical body immobilized induce a state
akin to sleep and enter into the action as though you were an actor play -
ing the part. Experience in imagination what you would experience in the
flesh were you now in possession of your objective. Make elsewhere HERE
and then NOW. And the greater you, using a larger focus will use all
means, and call them good, which tend toward the production of that
which you have assumed.
You are relieved of all responsibility to make it so, because as you imagine
and feel that it is so your dimensionally larger self determines the means.
Do not think for one moment that someone is going to be injured in order
to make it so, or that someone is going to be disappointed. It is still not
your concern. I must drive this home. Too many of us, schooled in differ -
ent walks of life, are so concerned about the other.
You ask, “If I get what I want will it not imply injury to another?” There
are ways you know not of, so do not be concerned.
Close your eyes now because we are going to be in a long silence. Soon
you will become so lost in contemplation, feeling that you are what you
want to be, that you will be totally unconscious of the fact that you are in
this room with others.
You will receive a shock when you open your eyes and discover we are
here. It should be a shock when you open your eyes and discover that
you are not actually that which, a moment before, you felt you were, or
felt you possessed. Now we will go into the deep.
Silence period.

I need not remind you that you are now that which you have assumed
that you are. Do not discuss it with anyone, not even self. You cannot take
thought as to the HOW, when you know that you ARE already.
Your three-dimensional reasoning, which is a very limited reasoning in -

Let no man tell you that you should not have it. What you feel that you

You are that and have that which this very moment you appropriated. Do

The Bible of ours has nothing to do with history. Some of you may yet be
inclined tonight to believe that, although we can give it a psychological in -
terpretation, it still could be left in its present form and be interpreted lit -
erally. You cannot do it. The Bible has no reference at all to people or to
events as you have been taught to believe. The sooner you begin to rub
out that picture the better.
We are going to take a few stories tonight, and again I am going to re -
mind you that you must re-enact all of these stories within your own
mind.
Bear in mind that although they seem to be stories of people fully awake,
the drama is really between you, the sleeping one, the deeper you, and
the conscious waking you. They are personified as people, but when you
come to the point of application you must remember the importance of
the drowsy state.
All creation, as we told you last night, takes place in the state of sleep, or
that state which is akin to sleep – the sleepy, drowsy state.
We told you last night the first man is not yet awakened. You are Adam,
the first man, still in the profound sleep. The creative you is the fourth-di -
mensional you whose home is simply the state you enter when men call
you asleep.
*****
Our first story for tonight is found in the Gospel of John. As you hear it
unfold before you, I want you to compare it in your mind's eye to the sto -
ry you heard last night from the book of Genesis. The first book of the
Bible, the book of Genesis, historians claim is the record of events which
occurred on earth some 3000 years before the events recorded in the
book of John. I ask you to be rational about it and see if you do not think
the same writer could have written both stories. You be the judge as to
whether the same inspired man could not have told the same story and
told it differently.
This is a very familiar story, the story of the trial of Jesus. In this Gospel
of John it is recorded that Jesus was brought before Pontius Pilate, and
the crowd clamored for his life, they wanted Jesus. Pilate turned to them
and said:
“But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the
Passover; will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?
Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barab -
More Free Books Law of Attraction Havenbas was a robber.” (John 18:39, 40).
You are told that Pilate had no choice in the matter, he was only a judge
interpreting law, and this was the law. The people had to be given that
which they requested. Pilate could not release Jesus against the wishes of
the crowd, and so he released Barabbas and gave unto them Jesus to be
crucified.
Now bear in mind that your consciousnesses is God. There is no other
God. And you are told that God has a son whose name is Jesus. If you will
take the trouble to look up the word Barabbas in your concordance, you
will see that it is a contraction of two Hebraic words: BAR, which means a
daughter, son or child, and ABBA, which means father. Barabbas is the
son of the great father. And Jesus in the story is called the Savior, the Son
of the Father.
We have two sons in this story. And we have two sons in the story of Esau
and Jacob. Bear in mind that Isaac was blind, and justice to be true must
be blind folded. Although in this case Pilate is not physically blind, the
part given to Pilate implies that he is blind because he is a judge. On all
the great law buildings of the world we see the lady or the man who rep -
resents justice as being blindfolded.
“Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.”
(John 7:24).
Here we find Pilate playing the same part as Isaac. There are two sons.
All the characters as they appear in this story can apply to your own life.
You have a son that is robbing you this very moment of that which you
could be.
If you came to this meeting tonight conscious of wanting something, de -
siring something, you walked in the company of Barabbas.
For to desire is to confess that you do not now possess what you desire,
and because all things are yours, you rob yourself by living in the state of
desire. My savior is my desire. As I want something I am looking in to the
eyes of my savior

Influence
of
the
lunar
cycle
and
seasonal
peculiarities
on
urine
Knowing
how
our
body
works
during
the
lunar
cycle
and
seasons
will
allow
us
to
use
urine
more
effectively
and
confidently
to
heal
and
stimulate
the
body's
vital
functions.
During
the
lunar
cycle
(lunar
month),
due
to
the
influence
of
the
gravity
of
the
Moon
and
the
Sun,
the
activity
of
the
functions
of
the
human
body
changes
as
follows:
During
the
first
phase
(lasts
7.4
days),
in
its
first
third
(right
after
the
new
moon),
the
head,
face,
brain,
upper
jaw
are
activated
,
eyes,
in
the
second
third
-
throat,
neck,
Eustachian
tube,
cervical
vertebrae
and
in
the
last
third
-
shoulders,
hands,
lungs,
nervous
system.
In
the
second
phase
(after
the
first
quarter),
completely
different
parts
of
the
body
are
active,
as
well
as
in
the
third
and
fourth
phases.
The
following
table
shows
the
activity
of
organs
and
parts
of
the
body
depending
on
the
phases
of
the
Moon.
1st
phase
(after
New
Moon):
-
head,
face,
brain,
upper
jaw,
eyes
-
throat,
neck,
Eustachian
tube,
cervical
vertebrae
-
shoulders,
hands
up
to
elbows,
lungs,
nervous
system
Phase
2
(Day
8):-
epigastric
region,
breasts,
abdomen,
elbows
-
heart,
gall
bladder,
rib
cage
and
thoracic
spine
3rd
phase
(after
the
full
moon,
day
15):
-
kidneys,
kidney
area
and
sacrum
-
gonads,
prostate,
bladder,
small
intestine
-
buttocks,
lumbar
bones,
coccyx
4th
phase
(22
days):
-
knees,
skeletal
system,
skin
and
digestive
system
-
ankles,
wrists,
lower
limb
bones,
eyesight
-
body
fluids,
peristalsis
of
the
stomach
and
intestines
In
addition,
there
are
two
phases
(quarters)
in
the
lunar
month
(lasts
29.5
days)
-
the
first
and
third
-
after
the
new
moon
and
after
the
full
moon,
when
the
organism
receives,
absorbs
and
retains
nutrients
well.
On
the
contrary,
in
the
next
phases
(second
and
fourth),
the
body
expels
all
waste
substances
and
harmful
substances.
At
this
time,
it
is
convenient
and
effective
to
perform
cleansing
procedures.
If
you
want
to
introduce
something
into
the
organism
(e.g.
saturate
it
with
salts
from
urine),
then
use
the
first
or
third
phase
of
the
Moon.
Use
the
second
and
fourth
phases
for
excreting
harmful
substances,
for
example
when
you
want
to
clean
your
colon
with
urine.
If
you
want
to
purposefully
get
into
a
certain
body,
you
have
to
use
the
time
of
day
j
his
activities.
The
seasonal
activity
of
the
body's
functions
and
the
organs
associated
with
them
is
a
long-established
fact.
According
to
ancient
observations,
during
the
year
the
most
important
organs
of
the
human
body
-
liver,
heart,
lungs,
kidneys
and
spleen
-
are
active
for
72
days.
In
other
words,
this
period
is
the
most
suitable
time
for
their
recovery,
or
cure.
Not
taking
advantage
of
such
an
opportunity
is
an
unfor givable
mistake.
How
to
behave
practically?
For
example,
the
liver
is
active
for
the
first
72
days
of
the
year.
During
24
hours,
the
functions
of
the
liver
and
gallbladder
take
place
from
11
pm
to
3
am.
This
means
that
on
these
days,
more
liver
metabolites
are
secreted
into
the
blood,
which
enter
the
urine
and
make
it
"relative"
to
the
liver.
Urine
must
be
stored,
activated
in
any
of
the
mentioned
ways,
e.g.
by
evaporation,
and
compresses
should
be
applied
to
the
area
of
  the
liver
during
its
activity.

Eventually,	the	body’s	calcium	reserves	become	depleted,	diminishing	bone	density	or
bone	mass.	This	may	lead	to	bone	and	hip	fractures	and	even	death.	With	more	than	half
of	all	women	over	age	50	already	affected	by	osteoporosis	(albeit	only	in	industrialized
nations),	it	is	obvious	that	the	current	approach	of	taking	hormones	or	calcium
supplements	is	a	shot	in	the	dark;	it	in	no	way	addresses	the	imbalance	in	the	liver	and
gallbladder	caused	by	reduced	bile	output	due	to	gallstones.
	Rickets
	and
osteomalacia
	are	diseases	that	affect	the	calcification	process	of	bones.	In
either	case,	the	bones	become	soft,	especially	those	of	the	lower	limbs,	which	are
bowed
by	the	weight	of	the	body.	The	fat-soluble	vitamin	D,
calciferol,
	is	essential	for	balanced
calcium	and	phosphorus	metabolism	and,	therefore,	healthy	bone	structures.	Insufficient
bile	secretion	and	disturbance	of	the	cholesterol	metabolism,	both	of	which	are	caused	by
gallstones	in	the	liver,	lead	to	vitamin	D	deficiency.	Lack	of	sufficient	exposure	to	natural
sunlight	further	aggravates	these	conditions.

Infection	of	bones,	or
osteomyelitis,
	may	result	when	there	has	been	a	prolonged
lymphatic	obstruction	in	the	body,	especially	in	or	around	bone	tissues.	Consequently,
blood-borne	microbes	gain	unhindered	access	to	bones.	As	mentioned	before,	infectious
microbes	only	attack	tissues	that	are	acidified,	weak,	unstable,	or	damaged.	The	microbes
may	originate	from	gallstones,	a	tooth	abscess,	or	a	boil.

Malignant	tumors
	of	the	bone	can	occur	when	lymphatic	congestion	in	the	body	and
the	bones,	especially,	has	reached	extreme	proportions.	The	immune	system	is	depressed,
and	malignant	tumor	particles	from	the	breasts,	lungs,	or	prostate	gland	can	spread	to	or
develop	in	those	parts	of	the	bones	that	have	the	softest	tissue	and	are	more	prone	to
congestion	and	acidification,	that	is,	the	cancellous	bone.	Bone	cancer	and	all	other
diseases	of	the	bone	indicate	lack	of	nourishment	of	bone	tissue.	Such	diseases	usually
defy	treatment	unless	all	gallstones	in	the	liver	are	removed	and	all	other	organs	and
systems	of	elimination	are	cleared	of	any	existing	congestion	as	well.
	Disorders	of	the	Joints

Our	body	contains	three	types	of	joints:
fibrous
	or	fixed	joints,
cartilaginous
	or	slightly
movable	joints,	and
synovial
	or	freely	movable	joints.	The	most	susceptible	to	disease	are
the	joints	of	the	hands,	feet,	knees,	shoulders,	elbows,	and	hips.
Rheumatoid	arthritis,
osteoarthritis,
	and
gout
	are	among	the	most	commonly	found	joint	disorders.

Most	people	stricken	with	rheumatoid	arthritis	have	a	long	history	of	intestinal
complaints:
bloating,	flatulence,	heartburn,	belching,	constipation,	diarrhea,	coldness
and	swelling	of	hands	and	feet,	increased	perspiration,	general	fatigue,	loss	of
appetite,	weight	reduction,
	and	more
.
	It	is	reasonable,	therefore,	to	conclude	that
rheumatoid	arthritis	is	linked	with	any	of	these,	or	similar,	symptoms	of	major	intestinal
and	metabolic	disturbances.	I	have	personally	experienced	all	the	symptoms	mentioned
above	when	I	suffered	painful	bouts	of	juvenile	rheumatoid	arthritis	during	my	childhood
years.

The	GI	tract	is	constantly	exposed	to	a	large	number	of	viruses,	bacteria,	and	parasites.
In	addition	to	the	many
antigens
	(foreign	materials)	contained	in	foods,	the	digestive
system	may	also	have	to	deal	with	insecticides,	pesticides,	hormones,	antibiotic	residues,
preservatives,	and	colorings	contained	in	so	many	foodstuffs	today,	as	well	as	some	large-
molecule	drugs	such	as	penicillin.	Possible	antigens	include	pollen	from	flowers,	plants,
plant	antibodies,	fungi,	bacteria,	and	the	like.	It	is	the	task	of	the	immune	system,	most	of
which	is	located	in	the	intestinal	wall,	to	protect	us	against	all	these	potentially	harmful
invaders	and	substances.	To	be	able	to	accomplish	this	task	every	day,	both	the	digestive
and	lymphatic	systems	must	remain	unobstructed	and	efficient.	Gallstones	in	the	liver
seriously	disturb	the	digestive	process,	which	leads	to	an	overload	of	toxic	substances	in
the	blood	and	lymph,	as	mentioned	above	(see	“
Disorders	of	the	Circulatory	System
”).

Doctors	consider
arthritis
	an
autoimmune	disease
	affecting	the	synovial	membrane.
Autoimmunity,	a	condition	in	which	the	immune	system	develops	immunity	to	its	own
cells,	results	when	antigen/antibody	complexes	(
rheumatoid	factors
)	are	formed	in	the
blood.	Naturally,	the	B-lymphocytes	(immune	cells)	in	the	intestinal	wall	become
stimulated	and	produce	antibodies	(
immunoglobulins
)	when	coming	into	contact	with
these	antigens.	The	immune	cells	circulate	in	the	blood,	and	some	settle	in	the	lymph
nodes,	spleen,	mucus	membranes	of	the	salivary	glands,	lymphatic	system	of	the	bronchial
tubes,	vagina	or	uterus,	milk-producing	mammary	glands	of	the	breasts,	and	capsular
tissues	of	the	joints.

If	there	is	repeated	exposure	to	the	same	types	of	toxic	antigens,	antibody	production
will	increase	dramatically,	particularly	in	areas	where	immune	cells	have	settled	becauseof	a	previous	encounter	with	the	invaders.	These	harmful	antigens	may	consist	of	protein
particles	from	putrefying	animal	foods,	for	example.	In	such	a	case,	intense	microbial
activity	can	occur.	The	new	encounter	with	the	antigens	raises	the	level	of
antigen/antibody	complexes	in	the	blood	and	upsets	the	fine	balance	that	exists	between
the	immune	reaction	and	its	suppression.	Autoimmune	diseases,	which	indicate	an
extremely	high	level	of	toxicity	in	the	body,	directly	result	from	a	disturbance	of	this
balance.	If	antibody	production	is	continually	high	in	synovial	joints,	inflammation
becomes	chronic,	leading	to	gradually	increasing	deformity,	pain,	and	loss	of	function.

The	overuse	of	the	immune	system	leads	to
self-destruction
	in	the	body.	If	this	form	of
self-destruction	occurs	in	nerve	tissue,	it	is	called	MS,	and	if	it	occurs	in	organ	tissue,	it	is
called	cancer.	Yet,	seen	from	a	deeper	perspective,	the	self-destruction	is	but	a	final
attempt	at	self-preservation.	The	body	only	“attacks”	itself	if	the	toxicity	has	increased	to
such	a	degree	that	it	could	cause	more	damage	than	an	autoimmune	response	would.	It
certainly	has	no	intention	of	committing	suicide,	which	is	what	the	meaning	of
“autoimmune	disease”	suggests.	When	the	body’s	cell	membranes	are	clogged	with
foreign,	harmful	chemicals	and	toxic	particles


 and why so few ever had toothache.
Soon after I began to practice in Alabama I had worked out in
my own mind, but had not yet crystallized the theory in words, that the
right kind of foods, in the right amounts and properly balanced, if
consumed from babyhood up would produce a healthy body and, with
it, sound teeth. At the time, the idea was so novel, that I merely toyed
with it and did not follow it up.
When I began to get the lay of th e land at Hereford, I realized
that the people who lived there were getting the kind of food that built
healthy bodies and sound teeth, but what was it?
For the most part, the people ate home-raised beef, white bread
made from shipped in flour and Irish potatoes, also shipped in.
As I have told the reader, Dr. C. A. Pierle of Canyon first gave
me the idea that milk from cows that had grazed on the native grass
was mainly what produced healthy mo uths. With this clue in mind I
would say to a patient who had come in with a mouthful of sound
teeth he wanted cleaned up:
"I see that you like milk and drink lots of it. You like your
buttermilk and clabber, too."
"You have me sized up about right, doctor," the astonished
patient would answer. "How di d you ever guess all that?"
Naturally, nobody in or around Hereford had thought once giving
their food or milk credit for producing their sound teeth. They did not
suspect that what they had to eat or drink was any different from what
people in other parts of the country lived on. Very few people are
aware of the fact that what one eats determines their health.
Even today, very few Deaf Smith County residents seem to
appreciate the fabulous riches of their soil. The greater number do not
know how to value the food crops which grow in that soil loaded with
health-giving minerals and vitamins.
My inquiries among people who live in distant States have about
convinced me that no other agricu ltural area can match in total
nutritive value the wheat, green vegetables, other food crops, beef and dairy products that come from Deaf  Smith County's mineralized soil.
Most maladies which afflict mankind, I say, can be eliminated by
living on the correct foods. Whatever ills the people suffer from, they
themselves have created—mostly by their faulty eating habits. I can
cite you Scripture to bear me out:
"Brethren, I have fed you with milk, and not with meat," Paul
writes in his first epistle to the Corinthians. "For hitherto ye were not
able to bear it." Again, the apostle writes to the Hebrews:
"Strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age."
To be sure, the language of thos e passages is figurative. Milk
matured the child. Meat was fit food for the understanding adult.
Even so, in our Plains country, those persons who drink plenty of
milk from childhood up, almost unfailingly are found to possess keen
minds along with their sound teeth.

I GET SOME CLUES AND FOLLOW THEM UP
As I had a pretty strong suspicion that the food which my
patients had lived on would give me the key to their mouth condition,
I would question every person who came to me about his eating
habits.
The more I found out in that manner, the more I was convinced
that I was on the right track. I had noticed that a poorly balanced diet, whether too much or too little, would show up in a bad mouth.
My patient would have cavities in his teeth—a sign that he was
getting too much starch and not enough protein in his diet. Another
patient would have puffy and bleeding gums. He was a victim of
pyorrhea, as a result of eating too much meat and gravy.
As I kept telling my patients, a balanced diet contains all the
elements needed to build the supply, keep it in repair and supply it
with energy. That kind of foodstuff, eaten regularly — in the right
amounts, but with variety that w ill keep the appetite whetted, will
produce a strong, healthy body and sound teeth. But, if the diet lacks
some essential element, the bodily machine will soon be out of kilter.
Sooner or later the teeth will suffer along with other tissues and organs.
To cite an instance: Mr. W. P., a Deaf Smith County ranchman,
had been my patient for years. Until middle age, he had nearly perfect
teeth. One day in his late 60s, Mr. W. P. came into my office. My
check up showed 22 recently fo rmed cavities in his teeth.
"Mr. W. P. (I told him), I see that you have gone and dropped the
diet that had kept your mouth he althy all these years. You are not
getting the fresh vegetables, salads and other nourishing foods like
you have lived on most of your life — and you are not drinking milk
like you did."
"You are right, doctor," Mr. W. P. confessed. "I have developed
a strong appetite for white bread and syrup."
About the same time another old acquaintance of mine, J. N.
Jacobsen, then 77 years old, came in for a check-up. Mr. J. had an
almost perfect mouth. All his life he had needed but one tooth
extracted and two filled. He had no cavities then, but firm gums and
healthy mouth tissue.
"How long has it been, Mr. J., since you had these fillings put
in?"
"Let's see, that was 60 years ago when I was a boy in Denmark." "How long have you lived in Hereford, Mr. Jacobsen?" "I have
been here 41 years."
"I suppose you brush your teeth after every meal, like the books
say, and all that?"
"No, doctor, I don't. I have been too busy making a living to fool
with a toothbrush."
"Well, what do you eat as a rule?" "Anything at all that grows in our garden. As you know, doctor,
it is the best in town."
"But you do eat some meat?" "Once in a while, I'll eat a steak or something."
Through the 30-odd years that I practiced in Hereford I kept
questioning my patients like that. To my way of thinking, the answers
I got proved my theory: A natural, ba lanced diet of unrefined food will
produce sound teeth and a sound body. Never once, since I formulated that tenet, have I found a bad mouth in a person who lived on that sort
of diet — fresh vegetables out of the home garden, whole wheat
grown on our completely fertile Deaf Smith county soil, with plenty of
milk from cows that had grazed on our home pastures. The best test
was milk. That was the only food that, until recent times, people
generally consumed raw.
On the other hand, when a patient did come into my office with a
lot of cavities in his mouth, I could tell him what had caused his teeth
to decay.
"You are eating too much white bread, hot biscuits and cake,
sugar and syrup, pies and jellies (I would tell the patient). As a result,
your body is not getting the protein and minerals it needs for healthy
functioning. You are not taking in calcium enough to build strong
bones and sound teeth. You do not drink enough milk or eat enough
raw foods to keep you supplied with vitamins and minerals. Those are
the spark plugs for your bodily machine. You do not eat enough
roughage, such as bran, for healthy elimination of waste matter."
"I guess you have me sized up about right," doctor, the patient
would answer. "I do have a dainty appetite."
Well, it is an unhealthy appetite (I would warn) and it is your
worst enemy. Just keep indulging that appetite a few years longer and
you will be needing a full set of false teeth. I can make you some good ones. They won't decay at all and you can take them out to clean them
at will. If that is what you want, just go on feeding that jade appetite of
yours. But if you want to keep your natural teeth you will have to
change your eating habits drastically and change right now.
Now, you go home, Mr. S. and begin eating sensibly. Take some
wheat bran — or some home milled whole wheat would be better —
soaked in whole raw milk for breakfast, or, if you prefer, you can heat
the cereal. With it take some fresh fr uit or if you can't get that, some
fruit or vegetable juice out of a can.  That is better than coffee or tea,
but milk in some form is your best drink. Then, for dinner have some fresh vegetables out of your garden
— string beans or blackeye peas or what have you — and drink the
pot liquor. Take part of your dinner raw — tomatoes and lettuce
leaves will do nicely. You can have a little meat and just a dab of
butter, but no hot biscuit and syrup. Eat whole wheat or corn bread. If
you must have a dessert, let it be stewed or fresh


 these principles before him as cardinal precepts, teaching that whatever is utilized must always be in
conformity with bodily need and never against organismal intellige nce. In being quantitatively precise, it presupposes optimal
quality of any factor utilized that we consider Natural Hygienic.
The difference, basically, that I noted in my study of the diet of these individuals is that there has been
•   an accentuation o r increase of the green leaf vegetables while at the same time there has been

•   a reduction in the amount of fruit, especially those that are highly acid (citric, etc.).
•   Also, the fast has been used at the very first symptoms of any remedial detoxicating process that we call acute disease
such as colds and minor disturbances that commonly occur when vegetarians and even Natural Hygienists experience
when they habitually over -consume foods even though they are natural.
The End
Energy is the key factor in all bodily function.

PART 2

Today, on June 16th, 2001, I have added the following commentary explaining in detail the modifications made in the technique
of Dr. Cursio in applying the principles of Natural Hygiene. (Since I have known and studied with Dr. Cursio for more than 40
years, I feel qualified to interpret his views.)
Dr. Cursio, in following a simple principle, "  That there should be economy of body s tructure and energy - that there should be
maximal utilization with minimal expenditure of power in every agent used, so that there be enough energy left over that the
body can use for healing purposes ," aimed at maximizing the healing process.

To put it  simply, the basic idea is based upon the fact that all healing and regeneration is in ratio to the amount of energy which
is available - the more energy, the more detoxicating healing, the less energy available, the less the improvement. Energy is the
key factor in all bodily function.
It could also be expressed in the formula  V - O = P , or Vitality minus Obstruction equals Power.
Or: Vitality (which is present in the body) - Obstruction (removal of toxins which interfere with the availability of energy,  which is
indispensable for healing or any malfunction). This removal of Obstruction results in Power, which is now freely available in
large quantity for maximal healing.

In this respect, Dr. Cursio consistently discouraged patients from expending energy  in unnecessary exercise, allowing no more
than simple walking in moderate amounts during the more critical phases of the healing process.
In my own experience, I can verify the correctness of this view. I once fasted 30 days on water while taking care of patients and
was very active in physical exercise throughout. At the end of the 30 days, beyond the loss of 35 pounds, the healing process
had been very minimal compared to many other fasts I had undertaken.

This rule also applies to all people who are no t ill and wish to perform their best work and thinking.
Since the digestion of food takes precedence in the body to all other activities - physical, mental, spiritual and even sexual - the
more empty the stomach, the more energy is available for other acti vities.

It was for this reason that more than 40 years ago I trained myself to eat one meal a day, which was in the evening after wor k.
As a result of this, from the time I opened my eyes to my evening meal, I always felt excellent, had lots of energy, an d my mind
was always able to concentrate on the most difficult and abstract writings without fatigue. I always advised college students  to
omit all food before exams, and they would be amazed at how well their memories functioned.
For men who had difficult ies in erection during sex and thought they were becoming impotent, the empty stomach concept
proved to be a miracle. How could anyone perform well in any act, especially one so sensitive as sex, when he previously had a
good dinner of 6 or more courses, t hus drawing the greatest amount of blood as well as energy to the stomach for 4 to 6 or
more hours for digestion, thus removing both blood and a vast quantity of energy from all other muscles, as well as the brain.

This  law of the conservation of energy   applies to all physical, mental, emotional, spiritual (meditative) acts without exception
when related to the process of digestion. Those who eat the smallest meals while providing the body with all of its requireme nts
invariably live the longest. This is  been proven in animal experiments as well as with humans as far back as history goes.
Based upon this principle, I would state that -
Health is energy functioning in the body under conditions that are normal - and
Disease is energy functioning in the body  under conditions that are abnormal.

What are the normal conditions? They are the providing of the correct       quality   of food and fluids and, more importantly, the
correct  quantity   of these to the body daily, along with all other factors, such as clean air, proper rest and sleep, thought, etc.
The abnormal conditions are deficiencies in the necessary nutrients and, more frequently, accumulations of excesses in both
poor quality and  good quality foods. These excesses eventually build up as obstructions in the body, leading to loss of energy,
followed by retention of water, which finally produce diseases.

The greatest loss of energy occurs in the digestion of food (especially when it  is in the stomach), followed by absorption,
assimilation and fixation of nutrients in the cells and tissues.
The greater the consumption of food beyond the body's requirements, which is very little, the greater the expenditure of ener gy,
leaving less avai lable for the healing process. (Note: Luigi Cornaro lived on 12 oz. of food a day and 14 oz. of grape juice
beginning from 35 years up to 102 years in perfect health.)

 copyright © Dr. Stanley S. Bass   (718) 648 -1500    www.drbass.com                                               57

The weaker and sicker the patient, the smaller the quantity of food which can be digested, and when the condition is acute an d
painful, no food should be consumed at all except water alone. This allows the body to direct all of its energies to the healing
process. Here is where we witness the most amazing cures of diseases.

Also, in relation to the concept that there be maximal utilization of food with minimal expenditure of energy, this required that
food be prepared in a manner that required minimal digestive energy and in a form to allow for maximal utilization. For example,
if the body required a large amount of minerals, enzymes, vitamins etc., which are best found in green leafy vegetables, this
could be satisfied by the use of vegetable juices or blended salads. The use of
1. vegetable juices requires no digestion at all;
2. the blended salads require almost no digestion and will provide approximately 4 x the amount of minerals etc. as compared
to eati ng and chewing of the same amount of a tossed salad.

The tremendous amount of digestive energy saved in the use of these 2 procedures by Dr. Cursio led to greatly accelerated
healing, as well as increased utilization of the observed elements, eliminating skeletal abnormalities while at the same time
allowing for a generalized improvement throughout the entire body.
This implied the use of
•   the best quality of food available, preferably organic. The diet was also to contain
•   a total impact of all the nutritional factors needed, given in
•   the best combination and sequence to simplify digestion and only in
•   the minimal amounts which could be utilized thoroughly,
therefore leaving the maximal amount of energy available for the healing process.

And finally, as stated in the article, the basic alterations in the diet as compared to earlier traditional Natural Hygienic diet s were
1. an increase of the green leafy vegetables, 2. a decrease in the amount of fruit, especially those that were highly acid ( citric,
etc.), and 3. the use of the fast at the first symptoms of acute disease (inflammation, pain, colds etc.)
 Dr. Stanley S. Bass,  June 16th, 2001

 You carry on omad orin looping but you just don't seem to
lose that last bit of extra lard around your middle. Have a splurge day then a
48hr fast or two and you will blast through that platou and start losing weight
again.
Do not ruin special occasions with friends or holidays. These are times to be
enjoyed. Get even more joy out of these times than you did before you started
omad orin looping. Indulge, and then plan a few days fast at a later time to make
up for it. As long as these special times are not too frequent which would mean
they are not so special anymore.
This is key, enjoy good food and good times even more. Appreciate good food
and drink so much more because you are not consuming so much.
This can be applied to anything else in life that you enjoy. Too much of it reduces
your enjoyment. Most people today eat too much and partake in things they
think they enjoy, too much. This reduces their enjoyment of it. If they applied
this protocol in their lives then they would be much happier and healthier.Too much of anything is bad for you. The Bible says even too much honey is bad
for you. Honey is used here to show that even things that are great can be bad
for you if you have too much.
For example a certain man enjoyed electronic games and watching films/TV
series. He sometimes spent most of his day for many days in a row watching the
electronic screens. He developed boxset blues. Too much deprived him of his
enjoyment.
He later cut right back, he chose quality entertainment  instead of quantity. His
enjoyment and appreciation went up tenfold. It can be the same with eating or
anything else you enjoy.
Cutting right back and enjoying quality not quantity is the road to a happy joyful
heart. This is the best medicine and the beauty of omad orin looping lifestyle
choice.
Less is more. Omad Orin Looping teaches you that you really don’t need much.
You can have a minimalist kitchen and entire home. The application of this
protocol has profound implications on the rest of your life. Your body feels
cleaner and your life can also become less burdened down.
One major theme of this book is balance and moderation. When it comes to your
one meal it can be anything, but try to make good choices most of the time.
Watching the occasional TV program or film may be genuinely enjoyable and
leave us feeling refreshed, but not devoting two months of the year to sitting in
front of an electronic screen as most people do.
Simplifying is not meant to leave your life empty, it's meant to leave space in
your life for more important things and what you really want to do. Omad will
give you a lot more time everyday.
While living in Japan I came to learn important lessons from the Haiku. It's a very
popular form of Japanese poetry. The Haiku is usually a nature related poem
written in just 3 lines. a poet writing a haiku must work within those limitations, it
can be a daunting task if you have something important to say. One award
winning haiku was-
Snail my little man
slowly oh so slowly
climbing up mount Fuji
A brilliant poem you no doubt agree when you think about it. So the haiku poet
has a couple of choices. He can quickly whip out 3 lines and complete a new
haiku in a short amount of time. Or he can carefully choose only the essential
words and images needed to convey his idea. It's this second choice that creates
some of the most powerful poetry in such a limited form.Choosing only the essential. Quality not quantity.
We can learn two important lessons from the haiku. 1. By setting limitations we
must choose the essential. So in everything you do, learn to set limitations. 2. By
choosing the essential we create great impact with minimal resources. Always
choose the essential to maximise your time and energy.
This is the very essence of omad orin looping and is one of the main points of
this book, stick to the essential, set limits and stick to them and at the same time
keep it simple and be balanced. Once again because it so important - Choose the
essential set limitations and stick to them. Limit yourself to a one hour eating
window and loop your orin the rest of the time. You will find you have more time
and less stress.
Chapter 10
Placebo and nocebo
If you start doing something beneficial, but absolutely believe in your heart that
it's not good for you then it will inhibit the benefits. This is nocebo, the opposite
of placebo.
This book touches on the reasons why this omad orin looping lifestyle choice is
so amazing. But there is nothing like experiencing it first hand for some time.
Maybe a part of the effectiveness of this programme is in the mind. But even if
that is so, if it works just continue to do it.
If you believe you can do it then you will do it. You bring about what you think
about.
I know the real practical reasons and the science behind it, so I know it’s not all
just in the mind. Those familiar with omad will know that 23/1 fasting increases
human growth hormone alone by around 2000%. As well as huge increases in
other amazing substances. But to be correct you should say the entire sentence
that HGH increases by around 2000% in the urine of those on 23/1 intermittent
fasting. If you don't loop it then you are wasting all those beneficial substances.
There are thousands of known beneficial substance in the body and therefore in
the urine in trace amounts, and my theory is that there are several thousands
more unknown about as yet undiscovered by science in your own life water.
These are all in your life water.
The fact that the body likes omad so much is shown by the clue that is in how
much increase in all these substances. This has been proven, that if you follow
this programme then you human growth hormone can increase in you orin by
2000%. Just think about that when you have doubts about drinking your own
waters, or when you have doubts about eating only once per day.Get over it, man up. Suck it up and take action. Dont procastrinate omad orin
looping start right now today. Just do it. Suck it up and do it, dont be a wimp just
flipping do it, right now the next time time you pee, drink it.
End.
FAQ.
Q. How much volume should I drink in a day?
A. It depends on your size and how much you are sweating. I’m 6’ and around
80kg, and I loop at least a gallon a day most days, but if I’m very active and
sweating a great deal in the sun or sauna, it could be 1.5 to 2.5 gallons. This is
total measurement of what I loop in 24 hrs. If your smaller or larger then adjust
to find what is right for you.
Q. Does your eating window have to be exact every day?
A. To get the 2000% increase in human grow hormones you have to fast for
around 20hours per day. So as long as your one hour eating window is within say
4 hours or so each day you will still get the benefits. But your body lies routine
most of the time, so it’s best if you can stick to the same time as often as you
can. I nearly always manage my last big loop about twenty to five and start my
1hr eating window at 5pm with a large smoothie. If something happens and I’m
busy or I miss it for some reason then I call it 48 hr fast and wait until 5pm the
next day rather than eating later in the evening when there isn’t as much time to
digest it before you sleep.
Q. Is there any time when I should not drink my orin? What if I’m extremely
stressed?
A. There is never a time when you should not loop all your urine. As John
Armstrong brings out, even if it’s the most foul substance you have ever seen
showing there is something wrong, this is still exactly what the body needs to get
better.  If you are unwell, unhappy or stressed then yes your orin will not be very
high quality. The same if you have a bad diet and lifestyle. It is a reflection of
you. Your orin is a snapshot of you. This does not mean that you should not loop
it even in these situations.
If you are well hydrated, feeling happy and content with low stress levels and
have a good diet of mostly fruit then this is how to get your orin the best quality.
Or I should say how to get your body to be the best version of yourself.
Remember its liquid you. This is the how orin loopers get so in tune with their
own bodies, and how they get to know what is good for them and what is bad.
You soon get to know yourself very well when omad orin looping.
If your urine is yucky and stinky then take this as a sign that there is something
wrong. Start omad orin looping and reduce stress and anxiety as much as you can. Work on increasing your happiness and eating a better one meal every day.
You will soon notice the quality of your orin improve as your health does.
Q. What percentage of what you consume everyday is the plant based smoothie


adow  splashed with daisies and sit
down beside a clear-running brook, I have found medicine.
It soothes my hurts as well as when I sat in my mother’s lap
in infancy, because the Earth really is my mother, and the
green meadow is her lap. You and I are strangers, but the
internal rhythm of our bodies listens to the same ocean
tides that cradled us in a time beyond memory.
Nature is man’s healer, because Nature is man. When
Ayurveda says that the sun is our right eye and the moon
our left eye, we mustn’t sneer. By bathing us in the moon,
the sun, and the sea, Nature fashioned the bodies we
inhabit. These were the ingredients that provided us eachwith our piece of Natur e—a shelter, life-support system,
intimate companion, and home for seven decades or more.
The discovery of the quantum realm opened a way to
follow the inﬂuence of the sun, moon, and sea down deeper
into ourselves. I am taking you there only in the hope that
there is even more healing to be found there. We already
know that a human fetus develops by remembering and
imitating the shapes of ﬁsh, amphibians, and early
mammals. Quantum discoveries enable us to go into our
very atoms and remember the early universe itself. Aeons
ago, light and heat came into being in the univers e, to last
for 20 billion years; yet, every human being strikes the
spark again, lighting the ﬁre that kindles life. In Vedic
India, the same sacred ﬁre that was in the hearth shared
the name Agni with the digestive ﬁre in the belly and the
solar ﬁre in the sky.
Sir Arthur Eddington once aﬀirmed that there were two
realities that had to be known on their own term s, one of
which was trivial, the other all-important. The trivial one
was the mechanistic reality investigated by science; the all-
important one was the human reality of ordinary
experience. In the scienti ﬁc reality, Eddington said, Earth is
a speck of matter whirling around a mediocre star, both of
them cast adrift among billions of more important stellar
objects. But in the human reality, Earth remains the center
of the universe, because  the life it harbors is the only
important thing that exists, at least for us.
The most poignant expression of this idea came to me
from a patient who had many health problems, including
cancer. To regain her perspective, she wrote down certain
important experiences from her past. One of these
occurred when she was a girl of 16; she entitled it, “But
How Can I Be the Moon?—Age 16:”Lying alone in the pasture, dark except for the
magnetic full moon. There is an overwhelming
sense of quietness. My being is part of the earth
and part of the pure white light of the moon at the
same time. Nothing else is signiﬁcant. For a
second I wonder, “Am I dead?” It isn’t important—
I am spendin g an hour in God’s hands, and it will
become part of me.
A surprising number of people have had such
experiences, which Eddington called “the mystic contact
with the earth.” My patient later slipped away from her
experience, gradually becoming used to the grind of work
and family worries that disconnects all of us from Nature;
in her case, the accumulated stress led to frequent
sickness. (She wryly titled her later life, “Going Against
Nature—This Is Adulthood?”)
What is so unusual is that when she stopped going
against Nature, the old feeling of contact came back with
undiminished freshness. In her late twenties she visited the
Paciﬁc shore and wrote this:
For about two hours on the beach alone, I was
with God again. I was the surf, its sound and
strength. I was the sand, warm, vibrating, alive. I
was the breeze, soft and free. I was the sky,
endless and pure…I felt only great love. I was
more than my body and knew it. This moment was
absolutely cleansing and beautiful.
What she expresses I also believe as a doctor. The healing
mechanism inside us perfectly matches the one outside.
The human body does not look like the green meadow, but
its breezes, its laughing water, sunlight, and earth were
merely transformed into us, not forgotten. (There is goodreason for all the ancie nt medicines to say that man is
made of earth, air, ﬁre, and water.) Because the body is
intelligent, it knows this fact, and when it returns home to
Nature, it feels free. With overﬂo wing joy it knows its
mother. That feeling of freedom and joy is vital—it allows
inner and outer nature to blend. The same is true of the
quantum mechanical body; it is just a doorway back to
Nature. One does not even need to explain it, except for the
sad fact that the intellect, going against Nature, has done
such a good job of blocking the door.
—
There is a lot more to say about the quantum mechanical
body. I can think of nothing we need to know more about.
Today, medic ine wants to make the leap beyond its present
dilemmas, but the wanting has turned into waiting. A fellow
student from my medical-school days in New Delhi has
risen meteorically as a research physician in the United
States, becoming a professor at Harvard Medical School
before he turned 45. Recently we sat after dinner in a
Boston restaurant and he predicted the future. “All the top
researchers met quietly in Washington,” he said glumly,
“and we agreed that by the year 2010, no major cancer
would be cured, and there would be no breakthrough in
understanding AIDS.”
This gloomy prognostication must be avoided at all costs.
It may be impeccable science, but it makes no sense from
the quantum perspective. We are all expert navigators in
the realm of? zone, where science gropes with one small
light. Doesn’t this suggest a solution? The mysterious
breakdowns of the body’s intelligence that occur in cancer
and AIDS may all be traceable to a single distortion—a
wrong detour into the hidden regions of DNA’s intelligence.
To see how the mind-body problem can be solved, we needto look more closely at these detours and their invisible
origin.
EXPANDING THE TOPIC
Reading this chapter almost three decades after I wrote it,
two impressions strike me, one theoretical, the other
medical. The theoretical part refers to a knowledge
explosion in all the sciences. The medical part has to do
with applying this new knowledge to healing diseases and
moving human evolution forward. There is a huge
mismatch between the two.
By 2003, the Human Genome Project, considered the
greatest scientiﬁc triumph at the end of the twentieth
century, had mapped the three billion base pairs that
constitute human DNA. Yet the promise of quick major
advances in genetic medical treatments never materialized.
Except for treating a handful of quite speciﬁc cancers (for
example, those where a single genetic mutation can be
targeted using a speciali zed “designer drug”), the general
medical applications have been nil. The vast majority of
designer drugs are also exorbitantly expensive.
In physics, the rise of superstring theory from its roots in
the 1980s has been the main “advance” in understanding
the quantum domain since Quantum Healing  appeared. The
quotation marks refer to the fact that not a single
experiment has validated string theory, a purely
mathematical construct that so far doesn’t have practical
applications except to employ more physicists to invent
new variations on the theory.
A third mismatch, which is in neuroscience, revolves
around the baﬄing dilemma known as the “hard problem,”
a term coined by the Australian philosopher David
Chalmers and which quickly took hold. The hard problem ishow to explain the mind as it relates to the brain. Despite a
ﬂood of new knowledge about how the brain works, none of
this fascinating data comes close to solving the hard
problem—the mind remains as elusive as ever. There isn’t
even a basic explanation for where thoughts come from.
The deﬁnition of life oﬀered in this chapter, “intelligence
wrapped up in chemicals,” puts the dilemma in a nutshell.
How did intelligence ever get associated with inert physical
lumps built from atoms, molecules, and subatomic
particles?
I’ve put the whole state of mismatch in simple terms, but
I haven’t distorted it. Biology, genetics, physics, and
medicine are at once roaring successes and under threat of
reaching a dead end. The successes get a lot of publicity,
the dead end almost none. Most people will shrug oﬀ the
news that despite decade s of deep thinking and billions of
dollars spent  on high-speed particle accelerators, physics is
no closer to a Theory of Everything and may actually have
moved backward. The discovery of so-calle d dark energy
and matter (“dark” means both invisible and outside the
parameters of accepted natural laws) has shaken physics to
the core.
The public can also shrug oﬀ

 occurs, as well as transform the energy into a
higher order to be received by the next house. In this fashion each of
the glands serves as transformer and generator for the energy of the
body.

7. When the energy reaches the level of the pineal gland, allow it to
circulate there for a moment, and then release the anal and chin locks
and slowly exhale the breath.
8. Begin the Small Heavenly Cycle again.
NOTE: At first you will want to hold the breath only for seven
seconds, one second for each gland. As you become proficient in the
breathing, hold the breath for longer periods of time. As the breath is
held for longer periods, begin to make two or more loops around the
houses for each period during which the breath is held. So the
sequence would become : inhale the air into the abdomen through the
Jen-Mo meridian; hold the breath and lock the chin and anal muscles;
pass the energy up and through the Tu-Mo meridian into the sexual
glands, adrenals, pancreas, thymus, thyroid, pituitary, and pineal
glands, then back down the Jen-Mo, and so on until there is the need
to exhale the breath. With practice the breath can be held for several
minutes to several hours without feeling the need to breathe. When
the seven houses have been sufficiently energized, the need to breathe
disappears and one functions in a breathless state of immortality.
LARGE HEAVENLY CYCLE
The Large Heavenly Cycle, like the Small Heavenly Cycle, utilizes the
breath and the seven basic houses (glands) of the body. The difference
between the two techniques is that the Large Heavenly Cycle allows the
energy to travel down the meridians of the legs and arms in addition to the
central axial chamber of the body.
I. Begin in a seated po sition with the spine and head held erect.
2. Inhale the breath and allow it to pass through the Jen-Mo meridian
in the front of the body to the abdominal cauldron (stove) where it will
be fired up and energized.
3. After a full inhalation, perfonn the chin and anal lock, hold the
breath, and allow the energy to circulate through the seven houses as
described in the Small Heavenly Cycle.
203 Immor tal Breat hing: Small and Large Heavenl y Cycles
4. When the energy has reached the pineal gland, allow it to descend
again down the Jen-Mo meridian into the legs through the stomach,
bladder, and gallbladder meridia ns which lie along the outside of the
legs.
5. When the energy has reached your toes, bring it back up your legs
through the spleen-pancreas, kidney, and liver meridians which lie
along the inside of the legs.
6. Circula te the energy back up the spine along the Tu-Mo meridian
and then allow it to descend down the arms through the lung, heart,
and Heart Constrictor meridians which lie along the inside of each
arm.
7. When the energy has reached the finger tips, allow the energy to
pass back up the arms through the large intestine, small intestine, and
Triple Heater meridians and bri ng it back into the Jen-Mo meridian
and down to the abdominal cauldron.
8. This completes one Large Heavenly Cycle. You may now exhale
the breath or continue to perform the brea thing cycle until you feel the
need to exhale the breath.
NOTE: At the beginning of your practice, hold your breath for seven
seconds while feeling the energy around your body. With increased
proficiency, increase the time to five minutes or more and perform as
many rotations of the large cycle as possible, always ending the
breath with the energy in the abdominal cauldron.
You may eventual ly reach the point where there is no need felt to inha le
or exhale. It is at this level that the cells of the body have been transmut ed
through an alchemical process to where they are able to exist only on the
energy which circulates throughout the universe, rather than on the grosser
need for oxygen which is presently felt. It is at this point that the • 'normal''
laws of time and space no longer bind the individual to this body or earth,
and one has entered into the eternal nature of the universe.

Taoist Healing
Prescriptions
The Internal Exercises may be divided into four distinct categor ies: I)
general and regular health maintenance exercises; 2) specific healing
exercises for individual organs or parts of the body ; 3) breath ing exercises ;
and 4) meditative and contemplative techniques. In ad dition, there are
healing prescriptions which combin e several of the Internal Exercise tech
niques and are used when treating a specific disease or ailment.
The general health maintenan ce exer cises are to be prac ticed on a daily
basis for a minimum of three months.Then one should continue to practice
the Deer, Crane, and Turtle daily, and use the other exer cises on a schedule
of alternate days or weeks so as to build the body to its max imum level of
health. After about three months one should be able to feel the flow of
energy in the body as one practices these exer cises. When one can perceive
this subtle flow of energy or life force (Chi) within the body, then it will be
time to begin practic ing the Mer idia n Meditation techn iques. To properly
learn the contemplative exer cises takes between one and ten years. Taoist Healing Prescri ptions
Develop patience in your practice and you will escape''Disintegration into
Evil'' and be rewarded generously. Practicing the Taoist Internal Exercises
is like venturing into a dark cave and discovering a treasure which has been
lying there for years awaiting its discovery. Upon returning to the sunlight,
that treasure will sparkle magnificently. The treasure is your health and the
Taoists feel that perfect health is our birthright.
You may find from time to time that you will go through periods when
you are unable to perform your exercises (because of location, family
crisis, etc.) If you have become genuinely interested and are able to see the
benefits you will have accrued from doing the Internal Exer cises up to that
point, have faith that you will return and begin again where you left off.
The Internal Exercise system is to be practiced throughout your lifetime.
Therefore, minor periods when one does not practice them will be insignifi
cant if one follows them for the bulk of one's lifetime.
The constitutions of some people upon beginning the Internal Exercises
may be very weak, or there may be chronic problems which have been
developing over the years. Even if one practices the exercises, whether
because of poor diet or an excess of stress in one's daily life or through
injury, one may acquire diseases or problems of health, such as heart
disease, obesity, or lower back pain. Included in the system of Internal
Exercises, therefore, are techniques designed to deal with specific prob
lems of the body. These are prescribed on an individual level, and are to be
practiced until the disease, pain, or problem disappears entirely. They are
to be practiced in conjunction with the other general health maintenance
exerc1ses.
Included in this chapter are also healing prescriptions or combinations of
several Internal Exercises which, when practiced together, aid the natural
healing processes in certain states of discomfort or disease, such as mi
graine headaches, high blood pressure, or hemorrhoids.

 This cultural disenchantment occurs in many of our young lives.  It is a certain rite  of passage, even a developmental
milestone, when children from many cultures and religious
backgrounds seem to lose their magical beliefs and imaginary thinking, and move on to greater “truths” and concrete thinking.  And it can be shameful, to believe in the power of belief and in universal magic, past the point of “age appropriate believing.”  It is likely no co incidence that we have placed
cultural time limits on the positive reinforcement of magical thinking and believing, and then we find in our research that
children stop believing at around that age and time.  Our beliefs
really do create our world.
I propose that the inner magic of “belief” is actually our
true nature.  Intuiting the magic of the universe is our birthright and our innate divine ability.  We can learn  to disbelieve, but
I believe that we are all born natural believers.  Many in the
Christian culture, who as children did hold a strong belief in
the infinite Source/Santa magic of the universe, let go of their believing abilities in the trust fa ll of the debunked Santa story.
And yet for some, a select few perhaps, these beliefs live on, but
are forced to shrink from public view and to go underground into the deep recesses of inner life, where they can be kept safe but perhaps less celebrat ed, until a later time calls them out.
In my own life, when I overtly relinquished my
connection with Santa, I essent ially relinquished my deeper
connection with Source and the magic of the universe as well, to a large degree – leaving only a small trace of its magical glow to hide deep inside my inner life, where it was safely tucked away
for an indefinite period of ti me.  In time, under this new
energetic reality in my life (thi s concrete world of disbelief and
disconnection), my shie ld of love and imagination, that had
made life so magical up to that point, wore down.  And the beliefs and climate of the culture I grew up in were taken in as
my own experience.  The mixture of joy and pain, the good and the bad, became part of my experience too.   Cosmic Wealth
 20
Ultimately, I know that I was one of the fortunate few
who didn’t relinquish Santa completely.  I had only tucked him
away in my heart and my imag ination, until it was safe to
believe again.  And this little bi t of belief, tucked away deep
inside me, afforded me a little perspective that some others had
lost long ago... that when lif e was anything other than magical
or blissful, I knew it could be different.  This was a deep, concealed, but still alive  inner compass that guided me through,
all the way to my 33
rd birthday, when precise divine timing
called my karmic debt to the surface.   Even in this tragic set of
circumstances, the magic, perfection, and precision of the universe was at work, calling to my sense of belief and imagination - to survive, succ eed, and transcend anything
less than goodness and bliss in my life.
My karmic tragedy arrived on time to clear my energies
and spirit of many negative vi brations and atta chments, that
had accrued like barnacles over lif etimes - across many cultures
and ages, in order to allow my true self to rise to its divine,
buoyant, prosperous nature.  This grave karmic experience required  me to reach within, for my deeply tucked away beliefs
and my happy thoughts... my  rich-in-Source-energy inner
light.  And do you know who show ed up, when I went seeking?
Santa.  His perfect, jolly, gene rous, abundant, joyful, playful,
and limitless nature came right back  into my spirit.  And in that
instant, I knew we’d never really been apart.  I felt the magic of
belief, the magic of Source and Santa – together, re-igniting my dim inner spark, to breathe new breath and new life into my spirit once more.
The magic of belief is a vibration.  It is an energy.  It is as
real in the as yet  unseen world of energy as your ten fingers and
ten toes are now.  It is a gift fr om Spirit.  It is a shield from
negativity.  It is a divine truth in our universe, that beliefs can
change and create your life.  Th e author Wayne Dyer has often
said, “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”  Our beliefs form a central part of our inner
life.  They set the tone for our vibrational energetic “emissions,” if you will.  These vibrations form  our point of a ttraction, from  The Magic of Belief 21
which the universe brings the vi brational equivalents of those
attractions, as direct experiences, into our lives.  When we think disbelieving and disenchanting thou ghts, we essentially attract
experiences to disbelieve or that disenchant us.  When we think
and feel the magic of belief, and we resonate with the happy, Santa-filled, infinitely positive  possibilities in our lives, we
attract magical experiences and things that can truly delight us.
Chris Van Allsburg, the author of The Polar Express,
captures so eloquent ly the perfect, divine, elegant magic
of Spirit and Santa, as well as a culture’s process of
disenchantment.  The Polar Express  is a story of a boy who
believes in Santa, who receives a bell from Santa’s sleigh, that
rings with a beautiful celestial so und that is the essence of pure
joy and the magic of belief.  The boy’s parents cannot hear the sound of the bell that Christmas, and believe the bell is broken.
And over time, all of the kids around him (who once did hear the bell) gradually lose their ab ility to hear the bell’s celestial
music as they get older.  But th e bell still rings for this boy,
who is now a grown man, because he still believes.
I am reminded each day how im portant it is to keep the
magic of the universe alive in our spirit, at all ag es.  There is
no one, at any age, who truthfully doesn’t wish to feel good, infinite, prospered, magical, and divinely loved.  The magic is true.  The infinite possibilities are true.  The generosity of God and the spirit realm is overwhelmingly good.  The key to feeling some of this goodness is to find a way to rekindle and nurture the magical power of belief.  And to nurture it, when possible, in others, by living it ourselves.
How do we nurture the magic of belief?  Maybe you can
retrieve a wonderful, warm, magica l, childhood moment, that is
untainted by family or the culture in which you were raised, that was pure and mystical.  Yo u are envisioning a memory in
which your inner child was in full fl ow of positive, good feeling,
beautiful Source energy.  Maybe it was a perfect day of blue sky and perfect kite flying winds, where there was no end to you, the wind, the blue of the sky, and the amount of time that you had to play.  You felt your limit lessness, your connection to all
things, and the strength of Mother Earth’s power flowing within Cosmic Wealth
 22
you.  Maybe you recall your inner child’s essence and
imagination, by baking and decorating cookies with your
children, with colorful delicious icing and fun assorted candies
on top.  Maybe the inspiring act of dancing arouses your inner child’s delight, and that movement  recalls the magical believing
essence within your spirit.  You are unlimited in your
imagination.  Giving  yourself permission to believe is the
first step.  Once you try that kind of belief on, and the inner  visioning process begins, the good feelings that come with it create more and more reasons to believe and to feel good, as
much as you possibly can.  When you are feeling good, and in the flow of belief, good things flow into your experience as a new truth and attraction source for future positive attractions.
The magic and power of belief is an essential tool in
creating a rich inner life.  The ability to laugh, to refocus your attention, to imagine, to inner vision, to hope, to feel, to delight in something – are all food for th e soul.  And when the soul is
happy, the things you draw into your experience become merrier and merrier.  Even a mere willingness  to believe goes
a long, long way to cr eating the life that you desire.  It opens
inner doors a crack, and let’s the inner sunshine from Source energy to shine upon the emerging inner life that you are  expanding.  With a little light, a little intention, and a willingness to open to the magic, you invite the magic to come.
And how delicious it is when it arrives from the deliberate
choices you make, and when you know that that magic was created just for you, by you.
Finding the magic of belief in your every day life through
your chosen thoughts, feelings, actions, and choices brings a greater glow and greater good to the whole
