 is no other possibility except in
the imagination. Everything already is exactly as it is ‘supposed’ to be. A nice, old, dilapidated, dented trashcan is ‘supposed’ to look beat up or
it would not be a nice, old, beat-up trashcan. (The ego wants a shiny
new one, of course. ) Q: Is ‘time’ itself an illusion. A: Creation manifests as emergence, which, to the perception of the ego, is
interpreted as ‘change’. What is witnessed is potentiality’s manifesting
as actuality, which becomes contextualized as ‘becoming’. The ego
superimposes a time track, which is a projection. There is only
continuous awareness. Time is a mental construct and an attempt to
conceptualize an explanation for sequence. Sequence is itself a
conceptualization of the observer and a mentation. The actual Reality is
not comprehensible to the mind. As the ego collapses, time vanishes and all phenomena appear to be in
slow motion. This truth was uncannily intuited by a few
cinematographers, such as appears in the slow-motion scenes in the
movie Deep Blue (cal. 700) and the movie of the life of St. Francis of
Assisi, Francis of Assisi. The Reality is subjective, experiential, and
revelatory rather than conceptual. Investigation of even the seemingly trivial reveals that perceptual
linear duality is a product of the imagination, which in turn is based on
the fallacy of the hypothetical. Everything at every second is already the
perfect expression of its karmic potentiality based on prevailing
conditions that influence the emergence of potentiality’s becoming
actuality. Everything is the presentation of that which it is, for
everything already is exactly what it is, which again is its meaning, its
worth, and its value. ‘Worth’ and ‘value’ are projected mentalizations. A
crooked tree is a perfect crooked tree. If it were not a perfect crooked
tree, it would be a perfect straight tree. There is no basic difference. Q: Nonduality is like a radical reality in which everything is seen as the
expression of its essence by virtue of its identity. A: That is an essential insight. All Creation, in and of itself, moves from
perfection to perfection solely by virtue of its existence. Existence is
already the fulfillment of potentiality expressed as the actuality. Form is a consequence of local conditions and is again the perfect
expression possible under prevailing conditions. All objections or
doubts about the perfection of Creation stem from resinterna/cogitans,
which projects the hypothetical error onto the world. In contrast, via the Heisenberg principle in quantum mechanics, the
details of the evolutionary change can be contextualized in
mathematical formulas. Intention (consciousness) collapses the wave
function from the potential to the actual, from the potential state of the
universe (the Schrödinger equations) to the collapsed wave state (the
Dirac equation). The new state then becomes the new potential state that
then ‘collapses’ into the next defined state. The state of Enlightenment is therefore the potential Reality that
replaces the illusions of the ego’s perceptual positionalities. Spiritual
intention, effort, and decision potentiate the evolution of consciousness
from the linear limited to the nonlinear Allness of Reality. Thus again,
intention activates the progress from possibility to probability to
actuality. Q: In the lectures, you mentioned the example of Roger Bannister’s
breaking the belief system of the four-minute mile. How does that
relate to spiritual work. A: Each individual who transcends the levels of consciousness to their
highest completion in this domain makes it easier for others to follow,
just like the lead dog breaks the snow and facilitates the progress of the
rest of the team. One’s seeming individual spiritual endeavor serves all
mankind. Each one who crosses over from below 200 to above 200 has
already enabled untold numbers to follow and serves as a potential
instructor as well. One cannot become enlightened just for one’s own
self because the impact is felt throughout all of human consciousness. The spiritual seeker of today has the advantage that the consciousness
level of all mankind is rising, and thus, there is less collective
resistance. OceanofPDF. comCHAPTER 6
The “Experiencer”
The mind acts as a processor of data simultaneously from both within and
without. It categorizes, sorts, prioritizes, contextualizes, and interprets
simultaneously as it concordantly draws on memory banks, emotional
centers, and conditioned responses and their correlations. All the above are
orchestrated contextually with emotional/animal instincts that are sorted,
rejected, accepted, or modified. In addition, this multilayered complexity is
simultaneously subject to options, choices, and the will. Options and
choices related to meaning and value overall are under the influence and
dominance of an all-inclusive, overall field of consciousness having
concordant and variable levels of power related to the level of
consciousness that is also influenced by karmic propensities. Simultaneously, the mind assesses degrees of relative truth, credibility of
information, and suitability and probabilities of action within similarly
multilayered behavioral social limits, including moral, ethical, social, and
religious principles. This complex, integrated processing system amazingly operates within
approximately 1/10,000th of a second, during which it simultaneously
selects and processes thoughts, ideas, and images that are invested with
emotion and categorized estimates of importance. The mind is therefore like
an infinitely complex processing unit of both internal and external data. Some of the information is perceived and stored in memory banks, but there
is also unconscious processing of all the data that is stored in the
unconscious. This processing screening device results in the 1/10,000th of a
second’s delay and acts as a separation between self and Self/Reality. This
processing screen represents ‘the experiencer’ in action. Transcending the Experiencer
Between phenomena and the experience of the phenomena is the
1/10,000th of a second’s delay; thus, the output is like the tape monitor
playback of a tape recorder that processes information during that split
second between reception and reproduction. The important point is to
realize that the self receives only processed material and not the original. Inaddition, the processed material then interacts with the automated response
of the personal self to the edited data. Although the ego/mind processor performs an incredibly complex
multitude of functions simultaneously and seemingly without effort, there is
a loss between input and output. That loss is a quality of the original purity
and innate brilliance. The output to the ‘experiencer’ is devoid of the
aliveness and radiance of Divinity that is innate to All that Exists. With the
evolution of consciousness, this screen suddenly disappears, and when this
happens, there is a profound transformation in that everything becomes
radiant, illuminated in depth, texture, and color. It ‘presents’ itself unedited
instead of being perceived and interpreted. The experiencer screen is energized by desire and identification with it. This desire is like an appetite of curiosity, wantingness, and craving, and is
an addiction to the experience of experiencing itself. In addition, there is
identification with experiencing and its content information as ‘self’. Thus
the mind says, ‘I’ saw, heard, felt, thought, etc. This would therefore seem
to be rather a natural misidentification as the experiencer is the leading edge
of perception and sensation. Misidentification arose during the evolution of
consciousness to subserve survival needs. From its earliest appearance in evolution, animal life forms were
inherently defective in that they lacked an intrinsic source of energy. Therefore, energy had to be sought and detected for assimilation. The basic
essential core program of the primitive ego was to sample, explore, forage,
seek, and ‘get’. Thus, from its earliest onset, animal life was innately
lacking the means to survival and therefore had to constantly search to find
and identify the energy sources and substances that then needed to be
assimilated and absorbed from its environment. This necessitated the
development of information detection, gathering, and integration systems to
evaluate the input (edible versus inedible, friend versus enemy, etc. ). The
result was the evolution of a primordial ego-survival system to process,
identify, compare, and categorize priorities of survival information that
heralded the onset of learning and intelligence. This experiencer process
became the ‘I’ of separate identity. Although it became greatly diversified
and elaborated over the millennia, its core identification and function
remained essentially the same. The overall intention, motivation, and alignment of this core ego
process to survive by getting and controlling dominates the consciousnesslevels below 200, which are characterized by the term ‘egocentricity’,
indicating aggressive self-interest and the predominance of the animal-like
predatory qualities. This may be seen in an undisguised style in the
psychopath where these characteristics are acted out pathologically, as well
as through gross demonstration by narcissistic messianic leaders who
represent the primitive limitation of consciousness development. At
consciousness level 200, there is the emergence of awareness and the
recognition of the equal value and worth of others, signifying the
appearance of spiritual energy that transforms context, paradigm, and
intention. The interface of the processor/experiencer is the core of separation and

to be hoped that, I have answered most of them in this book. 55  APPENDIX A : Herbal method of purging parasites

Based on native American Indian and other native people recipes, published by Hulda
Regher Clark (See the References)

Herbs:

1. Black walnut hulls – from the black walnut tree. Use water based tincture. Use
10-20 drops each time. 2.  wormwood – from the Artemisia absynthium shrub. Buy it for your garden. It
has been named for your garden. It has been named for a good reason long time
ago and it is mentioned in many ancient scripts, including the Bible. Take one
dried leaf in a teaspoon of honey each time. 3.  common cloves – from the clove tree. This is a common spice used in baking. Grind your own fresh cloves (not stored for a long time). Use a small amount of
ground powder mixed with a fruit juice – a tip of the teaspoon is enough. Taken together, these herbs help to eliminate over 100 common parasites in humans. Black walnut hull and wormwood help to eliminate adult parasites as well as their
various development stages. Cloves eliminate parasite eggs. Use the combination of above herbs 3 times a day before meals for a few days. For
more details read books by Hulda Regher Clark listed in References. After eliminating parasites, we should take care not to create favorite  conditions again. Attention to detoxification and the diet should be our strategy. 56  REFERENCES

  58  SUMMARY

Living should be a wonderful experience. The best and most important things in life
should be free and effortless. When we are born our bodies are perfect and they should
stay in a perfect state of health as long as we want. We are 100% responsible for the state of our health (all our diseases). We also have
complete power to improve our health and free ourselves from any  disease. There are no incurable diseases, only distorted knowledge, misinformation and our
limited understanding of what our mind and body are doing and why. Rather than applying a separate remedy to each disease, it is possible to cure  ALL
diseases. Normalising weight, curing cancer, getting rid of allergie s, infections, acne,
arthritis, tobacco, alcohol and other addictions, stopping and even partially reversin g
the ageing process etc.., is possible in the ONE simple process, described here. I t is
easy and nearly effortless. Anyone can do it. You will gain respect of everybod y around
you when you do it. There are no miracles. Performing so called “miracles” is just using t he knowledge. You don’t need to believe. You need to know. We doubt everything and everybody, except our Own Ignorance

effective fasting programs range from 1 to 6 weeks. Fasting greatly accelerates purification and the healing processes i n our body,

 gels,  gums,  and  cellulose,  that  destroy  the
original  benefits  of  yogurt. Decades  of  use  of  these
unhealthy  products  have  created  havoc  in  the  internal
bodily  systems  of  the  entire  planet. Lactose  malfunc-
tion and  yeast  malignancy  are  mostly  due  to  the  poi-
sons used  and  to  the  lack  of  cognizance  with  which
dairy  products  are  cultivated  and  prepared. A  pure
organic  yogurt  always  boasts  a  creamy  top  layer  called
malax. It  is  one  of  the  most  exquisite  tastes  a  human
may  experience. The  bulk  of  a  cow  or  buffalo  is  evi-
dence of  milk's  building  capacity. The  milk  of  the
lithe  and  supple  goat  is  much  more  pungent. That  is
why  goat's  milk  is  recommended  for  occasional  use by  the  Kapha  type. Even  the  homeland  of  the  Vedas  is  losing  its
sadhana,  its  wholesome  connection  to  the  knowledge
of  earth. Recently,  India  has  submerged  itself  in  the
excessive  use  of  milk  in  every  conceivable  kind  of
food. A  potent  food  that  is  meant  to  remain  a  subtle
part  of  our  physical  diet  should  never  be  abused,  and
milk  is  the  most  abused  food  in  the  world  today. Each
food  has  its  specific  quantitative  use. We  must  seek  to
learn  this  vital  secret  of  life. No  food  is  meant  to  DC
used  as  a  mono-diet — not  even  grains,  and  definitely
not  milk. Cheese  was  never  part  ol  the  Vedk  culture
because  it  incorporates  the  use  ol  two  incompatible
elements,  milk  and  salt. The  farthesl  acceptable  de
parture  from  milk's  sweet  taste  was  found  in  yogurt,
where  a  mellow  sour  taste  was  induced  to  help  as
similate  bodily  minerals. Wholesome  combinations
and  variety  are  the  Vedic  secret  to  good  health. These
healthful  quantities  and  varieties  are  recommended
in  the  Ayurvedic  food  energetics  sections. Milk  contains  the  calming  energies  ol  the  moon,  as

and  continues  to  produce  milk  for  an  additional  three
to  four  months. The  extra  portion  of  milk  is  to  be
used  by  humans. For  Pitta  and  Vata  types,  the  equiva-
lent of  one  glass  per  day  is  recommended. Kapha
types  should  not  use  cow's  milk. Pitta  will  mostly  use

types  will  use  warm  milk  to  build  their  immunity,

doshas)  who  are  breast-feeding. All  children  may  use
the  equivalent  of  a  glass  of  milk  per  day,  unless  the

with  the  use  of  milk  if  you  have  not  used  it  for  a  long

the  very  types  who  would  otherwise  benefit  from
certain  foods  are  now  becoming  allergic  to  those  foods. The  excessive  use  of  antibiotics  in  our  culture  has
brought  on  a  high  incidence  of  Candida  yeast  and
vaginitis  in  many  Pitta  women. Thus,  wheat,  which  is
the  primary  grain  for  fire  people,  cannot  be  used  by
them  because  of  the  proliferation  of  yeast  in  their
bodies. Similarly,  the  predominantly  Vata  and  Pitta
people  are  now  the  ones  who — as  we  have  said — are
becoming  lactose  intolerant. The  original  intent  of
nature  was  to  provide  milk  as  a  salve  to  regulate  the
digestive  fires  of  Pitta  and  to  boost  the  anabolic  pro-

Ghee  is  one  of  the  most  ancient  and  sattvic  foods

does  not  burn  unless  heated  excessively. It  synergizes Preparing  Ghee — Sadhana  to  Induce  Sattvic  Mind
with  the  food  nutrients  and  nourishes  the  bodily
constituents. It  also  serves  as  a  base  for  herbal  oint-

conditions. Ghee  is  good  for  all  doshas  and  is  a  spe-
cific for  Pitta. Minimal  use  is  recommended  for  Kapha
types. Ghee  keeps  indefinitely  without  refrigeration,  as
the  elements  that  cause  butter  to  spoil  have  been
removed. Just  remember  to  keep  it  covered  and  free
from  water  or  any  other  contaminants. Always  dip

S o, what do w e kno w about tur pentine? First of all, there is a company calle d Merck. It is a pharmaceutical company, and Merck
produces something calle d the Merck Manual. The Merck Manual discusses all diseases
that ha v e be en identifie d or the diseases it fe els are most important, and talks about
v arious types of ther apies that are appropriate and accepte d for them. The Merck Manual w as first publishe d in 1899. If y ou look up
turpentine in the 1899 Merck
Manual, it will let y ou kno w that
turpentine ther ap y is effe ctiv e for the follo wing:b’fiT
b’Tf Gonorrheb’Tr
b’Tf Meningitib’na
b’Tf A rthritib’na
b’Tf Abdominal difficultieb’na
b’Tf Lung diseasb’Tk
b’Tf
The list goes on and on and on. Fast forw ard to the 1999 e dition of the Merck Manual (a much thicker book), and look up
turpentine. All y ou will find is discussion of turpentine poisoning. It talks about the dire
effe cts of turpentine poisoning, and it talks about ho w such poisoning causes
destruction of the kidne ys and destruction of the lungs. I can sa y that to my observ ation, I ha v e be en taking it no w for a good 20 y ears and ha v e
observ e d at least 100 pe ople taking it. I ha v e certainly not se en any of those effe cts, and
neither has any one I’m a w are of who has chosen to a v ail themselv es of turpentine. The
reason ma y be the dose. The dangerous dose of turpentine in me dical liter ature is 1
tablespoon. The dose I use d—with great results and minimal side effe cts—is 1 teaspoon. Turpentine is out there. It has be en use d with great success certainly in the 1800s, and
someho w, in the 21st century, there is no kno wle dge of it. There is another pharmaceutical company calle d Parke Da vis. Back in 1901, Parke Da vis
publishe d a similar compendium of a v ailable me dical ther apies and their uses, and y ou
se e turpentine liste d in the Parke Da vis compendium of me dical ther ap y. I am not a w are
that Parke Da vis is still in the publishing business in terms of a comprehensiv e me dical
manual. Nonetheless, these are the areas where turpentine and sugar, as a treatment, has a
definite
tr ack re cord.So, w e ha v e quite a few publications with publishe d
information in the 1800s by the
pharmaceutical companies
themselv es, indicating that turpentine has be en use d to
benefit
in v arious afflictions. N o w, what other inf ormation is a v ai l able about tur pentine? Well, it se ems that turpentine w as in great use in the
v eterinary field, espe cially in the area
of horses. If y ou ga v e a
horse turpentine—and it w as gener ally turpentine and sugar—
then
the horse w ould be faster and w ould ha v e a shinier coat. If
y ou ha v e a sho w horse, for

great adv antage to it—but again, I am not familiar with

 compassion we experience healing and are reunited
with the natural harmony of the universe. “If the universe is friendly, why do we suf fer?” I ask Louise. “Well, I don’ t believe the universe wants us to suf fer,” she says. “And yet there is suf fering.”
“We heal suf fering by identifying the cause of suf fering,” she says. “So, what causes us to suf fer?” I ask. “Well, if we are honest with ourselves, we have to accept that we cause a
lot of suf fering ourselves,” she says. “Life isn’ t judging us,” I say, referring to our earlier conversation. “Exactly,” says Louise. “Life doesn’ t judge us, but we judge ourselves. Life doesn’ t criticize us, but we criticize ourselves. Life doesn’ t abandon us,
but we often abandon ourselves. “
“How else do we cause our own suf fering?” I ask. “When we stop loving ourselve s, we cause ourselves endless suffering,”
she says. We cause ourselves to suffer in 10,000 ways, mostly from a lack of self-
love. When we stop loving ourselves, we stop being kind to ourselves. The
loss of compas sion silences the wisdom of the heart. No kindness, no
wisdom. We follow the way of fear. We look for love in all the wrong
places. We search for happiness outside ourselves. We chase after success
but never feel like we have it. We make a million dollars, but we still feel
poor. A million dollars is not enough because it’s not two million dollars
and because money can’ t buy what we’re really looking for. “We also cause each other to suffer,” says Louise. It’s true, isn’t it? When
people stop loving themselves, they stop loving others, too. That’s the way
it works. Hurt people hurt people,  as the old saying goes. When we forget
about what’s real—the unified whole, our basic truth, the benevo lent way of
things—we fall from grace and get lost in 10,000 useless dramas. We
project our pain, we blame each other, we defend and attack, and we try to
win every ar gument by force. “Only love ends all ar guments,” says Rumi. There is another kind of suffering, too. It’s the suffering  we all
experience because of the impe rmanent nature of life. We mourn the death
of loved ones, we lament the end of a relationship, we grieve the loss of ajob, and we bear 10,000 other losses. We experience physical pain, illness,
old age, and the fear of our own death. The Buddha refer red to this
suffering as dukkha. It comes from grasping at what we want, pushing away
what we don’t want, wishing everything, including ourselves,  would last
forever, and forgetting our true nature. This attachment is utterly human,
and it deserves our compassio n and our love. Love is the cessation of
suffering. “There is another way to look at the friendly-universe theory,” Louise
says. “What way is that?” I ask. “Instead of asking yourself, How friendly is the universe? you could ask
yourself, How friendly am I? ” she says with a smile. “I like that,” I say as I let it sink in. “We are not separate from the universe,” she says. “The universe isn’ t out ther e,” I say, pointing to Louise’ s dinner table. “The universe is us,” she says. “And how we are being is how we experience the universe,” I add. “The more we love ourselves, the more we can love each other,” says
Louise. “This is how we know that life loves us,” I suggest. “And how we know that the universe really is friendly,” Louise says. Trusting in Love
On the day I started to write this book something extraordinary happened
that I can’t properly explain. It was such a surprise, and so delightful, that it
gave me all the faith I needed for the journey before me. I had planned to start writing on January 21, but I actually started on
January 20, the day before I thought I was ready! I woke up that morning
thinking I was going to do some more preparation before the Big Day when
I was due to sit in front of a blank page. Page number one. The Alpha page. The OMG page. The page you have to write before you can get to page
number two. During my morning meditation, however, I received an
internal memo that said, cryptically, “You were born ready. Begin today.”Over breakfast, I told Hollie and Bo and Christopher that I was going to
start writing Life Loves You that day. “I got a feeling that it would be good
to start before I was ready,” I told Hollie. Hollie smiled. Christopher
chewed on a pancake. Bo got up from the table and ran upstairs. Two
minutes later, she came back with a rose quartz crystal angel in her hands. “Here you are, Daddy,” she said. “Put her on your desk and she will help
you write.” Christopher jumpe d out of his seat. He came back with his
favorite tractor. “Here, Daddy,” he said. “This tractor will be a big help.”
Later that morn ing, I sat at my desk looking at the blank page. Page
number one. The pink angel was standing next to the computer screen. The
tractor was downstairs. Christopher had changed his mind about that. “You
can have my tractor, Daddy, but only if I can keep it,” he told me. Now the
spirit of the tractor was with me, parked right next to the angel. Also on my
desk was a jasmine-scented candle, a cup of Kona coffee, and a card with
one of my favorite messages from A Course in Miracles :
It cannot be that it is hard to do
the task that Christ appointed you to do,
since it is He Who does it. As I stared at the blank page, an image came to mind of a painting of
Jesus Christ standing at a door holding a lantern in his left hand. I’d seen
this painting before, but I wasn’ t sure where. This image of Christ was all I
could think about. I convinced myself that a mystical vision was a valid
reason to delay writing and do a search on Google. I typed “Paintings of
Jesus Christ,” clicked on the Images tab, and there, at the top of the page,
was the painting I was looking  for: The Light of the World, by William
Holman Hunt. When I saw the painting, I reme mbered that I’d had a dream about it the
night before. I don’t remember many of my dreams, and I can’t tell you
much about this one. I simply remember that I dreamed about that painting. Maybe that was why it appeared  on my blank page. Anyway, I took it as a
sign that “unseen hands,” as Joseph Campbell described, were helping me
on my way. I bookmarked some articles about the painting to read later. I
also downloaded an image of the painting to use on my computer as a
screen saver. At the moment, however, I needed to get back to the blank
page. Page number one.Meanwhile, Hollie was downstairs in the kitchen. Something was on her
mind, too. She was looking for a gift of some kind to help me with my
writing. The way Hollie describes it, her body marched her upstairs and into
her office. She scanned the room. Her eyes fell upon a picture that was
resting on a bookshelf. She hadn’ t noticed the picture before. She didn’ t
know anything about it. She assumed it belonged to me. She put the picture
in a silver oval frame and then came upstairs to see me. “Close your eyes
and put out your hands,” Hollie said. “I have something for you.”
When I opened my eyes, I was looking at a framed picture of The Light
of the World,  by William Holman Hunt. How did this happen? I was
astonished. Hollie was “weirded out,” as she put it. Hollie often brings me
gifts when I write—smoothies, green juices, and home-baked muffins, but
not this. “Hi, honey, here’ s a religious icon” isn’t normal for us. Neither of
us had any prior knowledge of this painting. Now it’s the first thing I see
when I turn on my computer. And the framed picture sits next to the pink
angel and the spirit of the tractor. When I told Louise this story, she smiled. It was one of her knowing
smiles. “I experienced so many little miracles and coincidences when I
wrote You Can Heal Your Life,” she told me. “I had the strongest feeling
that I shouldn’ t go to a mainst ream publisher, even though I’d had some
offers. I felt like I was the custodian of important information that mustn’ t
be edited or watered down. I had no idea how to self-publish, but I trusted
the process, and doors opened for me every step of the way.”
Shortly after speaking to Louise, I stumbled across this affirmation by
Florence Scovel  Shinn: All doors now open for happy surprises, and the
Divine Plan of my life is speeded up under grace


hus stirred
uncomfortably. “How can you meet God when God is invisible and ever -present?”
Udaka asked. “If He is everywhere, you cannot meet God, and you cannot
leave Him, either. So how many of you are seeking God right now, with all
your hearts?”
This time a great many of the men sitting around the campfire raised
their hands. “T ake a close look at yourselves,” said Udaka. “Y ou too are
fools. I just told you that God is everywhere. How can you seek what is
already here? If someone came up to you and said, ‘A thousand pardons,
sir, but I am seeking this mysterious thing called air. Can you tell me where
it is?’ you would mark him down as a fool, wouldn’ t you? Y et you follow
like sheep somebody’ s word who told you that you must seek God.”
What Udaka taught instead was redeeming the soul, or atman. “Your
soul is just as invisible as God, but it belongs to you. It’ s your divine spark,
hidden and disguised by restless desires. Y our atman is always watching
you, but you do not notice it. Y ou notice your next meal, your next
argument, your next fear. It is always drawing you closer to the divine, but
you do not heed it. Y ou heed a thousand desires instead. Be still and know
your soul. Seek it, and when you meet your soul, seize it for yourself,
because it’ s worth far more than gold.”
Gautama, who had been disillusioned by the higher self, felt a sympathy
for this new teaching. For one thing, it gave him time in seclusion, where he
could meditate and sit in the cool silence that he considered his real home. Udaka knew that the other bikkhus held the new arrival in awe; they vied to
sit next to Gautama because his mere presence deepened their meditations. The guru put Gautama on his right hand when the group next sat together,
and this unspoken gesture was enough to raise him above even the most
senior monks, who were not so holy that they enjoyed being displaced. “Let them hate you, let them love you. It’ s all a waste of time,” Udaka
said indif ferently. Gautama believed him. He’d grown up in a world tornapart by worse things than petty jealousy in an ashram. “But if another monk hates me,” asked Gautama, “why can’ t he see that
he is being distracted from his purpose?”
“He might. His soul could send him a message,” Udaka said. “But not always? He could go on hating me a long time, then.”
“Yes.”
Gautama felt a disquiet. “But if the soul is always loving, why doesn’ t it
tell him immediately not to hate me? What reason does it have to hold
back?”
“You’re asking me to be wiser than the soul,” said Udaka, with a trace
of irritation. “Don’ t be so clever. I’ve never seen anyone think their way to
heaven.”
Now Gautama knew what his disquiet was about. He had lost the forest
hermit and Alara. If he kept on this way, Udaka would fall away next. Disciples without masters are like fallow fields where no rain falls. He
couldn’ t do without nourishment. Udaka knew this too; he gave Gautama a
hard look. “Y ou have something more to say? Perhaps you want to ask me
about humility.”
“No.” Gautama kept his composure. “I wanted to tell you that I’ve been
having a vision. My wife comes to me. She says that I deserve compassion. Can you tell me what that means?”
“Ignore it.”
Udaka said this without the slightest sign that he cared about such
things. Gautama wouldn’ t be put of f, however. “Master,” he said, “many of the disciples have left homes and women
they love. Their children are for getting their father ’s face. Can’ t a devoted
wife be part of my soul?”“No one belongs in your soul but you,” said Udaka. “Then perhaps her image is a message. Y ou said that the soul sends
messages.”
“But it doesn’ t send dreams. She’ s the figment of an ignorant mind,”
Udaka said curtly. “What if you caught a cold? W ould you want me to tell
you what the soul means when it sends you a cold? Get over her as you
would get over any other disease.” Gautama’ s master had never been
married, and like many yogis he made a sour face whenever women were
mentioned. Udaka’ s revulsion bothered Gautama. Does he imagine that
women have no souls? But the discussion was over. Gautama bowed and
left without an other word. That night he returned to his tent, where he found Ganaka sitting up
eating a bowl of millet gruel. “Why so worried, saint?” asked Ganaka,
looking up. “You must be feeling better.”
“Much.” Ganaka began slurping the last bit of gruel from the bowl. “I
should be strong enough in the morning to leave.”
“Where will you go?” asked Gautama. “Deeper into the jungle. I don’ t intend to be found a second time.”
Gautama was shocked. “Y ou’re going to try to kill yourself again?”
“Of course. It’ s my Dharma.” Ganaka looked perfectly calm and
serious, speaking without a trace of cynicism. “Strange, isn’ t it? I have to
eat to get the strength to go out and starve myself.”
“I can’ t let you,” Gautama blurted out. He was so shaken that he wanted
to pace back and forth. Instead, he forced himself to sit on the ground with
his hands folded in his lap. His heart pounded. Ganaka said, “There are two things even a saint can’ t stop. One is being
born, and the other is dying.” He waited for Gautama to protest. It was hardto miss who in the tent was calmer and more collected. “Killing yourself is a sin,” said Gautama, then he stopped himself. Ganaka wasn’ t a fool or ignorant of scripture. “Please explain what you
mean,” Gautama said. Ganaka burst out laughing. “Excuse me, but I just can’ t help myself,
little saint. Look at you. Y ou wanted to jump out of your skin when I told
you what I’m going to do. But you didn’ t. Oh, no, you controlled yourself. You know how a holy man acts, and I must say you’ve gotten it down. I
wish I could train a monkey half as well.”
Gautama felt the heat creeping up his face. “That’ s unfair.”
“Who cares? I’m going to die tomorrow. I can say what I want.” The
strange thing is that Ganaka wasn’ t speaking harshly; his tone toward
Gautama was almost kind. “I once told you that you reminded me of my
younger self. Has it occurred to you yet that I might be your older self?”
Seeing the scowl that Gautama was trying not to show, Ganaka broke out
into laughter again. “Y ou’re like a traveling show. I can see at least five or
six people fighting inside you. Quite a spectacle.”
“Stop it!” Gautama jumped to his feet and began pacing as anxiously as
he’d wanted to since entering the tent. “Good,” said Ganaka. “Even a cat is smart enough to thrash its tail
when it’ s disturbed. Most people aren’ t.”
This show of implacable honesty caused Gautama’ s heart to sink. “You’re making me so sad,” he said, half pleading. “Then I’ll stop,” said Ganaka. “W isdom is never sad, and you want one
last word of wisdom, don’ t you?” He stood up and placed his hands on
Gautama’ s shoulders to stop him in place. “Dharma is worthless unless it
teaches one how to be free. I have listened to all the masters, read all the
scriptures, bathed in all the sacred springs. I found freedom in none of
them.”“And killing yourself will set you free?”
“When all else fails, whatever is left must be right,” Ganaka said with
serious simplicity. He let go of Gautama and turned away for a moment. “What is freedom, little saint? It’ s the end of struggle. Is not death the same
thing? I want to meet God, but my ef forts have failed. Not just failed, but
made me more unhappy than when I was married and lived with a loving
wife. I do not say your seeking is a fraud. Perhaps you must walk as many
paths as I did before you reach this point.”
He turned back and fixed Gautama with a clear, unflinching gaze. “Y ou
can shed your tears now.”
“I won’ t weep for you,” said Gautama mournfully. Ganaka sat back down on the cot. It was very late, and he was ready for
sleep. “I meant weep for yourself. Whatever I am today, you will be
tomorrow.”
He lay down and turned his back on Gautama, who sat vigil for hours. He wanted to

you see how you can begin to see some hope. Even if you have  shifted one
point, that’ s movement. Support for Getting through Grief >
In some cultures, the communi ty engulfs the mourner. I don’t mean they
share their condolences by delivering homemade food or sending cards. The
community sits with the mourners until they experience a breakthrough. If
we were  held through our grief with nothing expected, the experience
would be profound and healing  for all involved. Consider tapping when
you’re troubled by these issues: “Even though I need more than what I’m
getting right now, I love myself anyway” or “Even though I’m expected to
be norm al, and how is that even possible right now, I love myse lf anyway”
or “Even though I don’t have the support I need through this troubled time
…. ”
An alternative to traditional EFT is to tap continuously while expressing
phrases like these until you expe rience some relief:  “It’s possible for me torelease this grief, according to my own timing. ” “I know this is hard. And I
can still do it. ” “I am going through the hard stuff now and I’m okay. ” “It
feels like my world is ending, but I’m still here. And I have more resources
than I can possibly imagine right now. ” “I forgive myself for being scared. I
forgive myself for hurting. I forgive myself for lashing out. I forgive myself
for shutting down. I forgive myself for blaming. I forgive myself for
everything I did do, and for everything I didn’ t do …. ” “I choose to love,
honor, and accept myself. ” “I shower myself with compassion and
kindness. ” “I am open to healin g, to my own wholeheartedness, to myself
and to all that is divine in my life. ” “I feel the soles of my feet on the floor. I
feel the earth rising up to meet me. ” “I choose to breathe in life, and to
release everything I no longer need or that is no longer serving me. ”
Exercise: Releasing Learned
Helplessness and Burden
Grief can bring up fear and helplessness about everything you don’t know
how to do. You may wonder how to go on without the person in your life,
how to do the financial statemen ts, to parent on your own, to cook …. You
may be afraid of future losses. Add the word “yet” t o what you don’t know
how to do in your setup statements. “Yet” gives hope that you can figure it
out. It’s an alternative to the helplessness or hopelessness you might feel
about your loss. I don’ t know how to go on without this person in my life, yet …. I have no idea how to run the business, be a single parent, or cook a
decent meal, yet I’m open to learning. I have learned other things, so
it’s possible I can learn this, too. I am a resilient, capable, resourceful
human being.<|eot_id|><|begin_of_text|>

Q: What is the focus of the "Wayside Rest" section?,
A: The "Wayside Rest" section is focused on taking a break from the serious stuff and finding ways to relax and recharge.
Q: What is the primary goal of the "Letting Go of Dreams" section?,

 to secure water is through the
mechanism of keeping sodium in the body. The RA system is directly involved. Only when sodium is retained will
water remain in the extra cellular fluid compartment. From this compartment, through the mechanism of shower -
head production, wat er will be forced into som e of the cells with  "priority" status. Thus, keeping sodium in the body
is a last resort way of retaining some water for its "shower-head" filtered use. There is a sensitivity of design attached to sodium retention in the body. To  assume this to be the cause of
hypertension is inaccurate and stems from insufficient knowledge of the water regulatory mechanisms in the human
body. When diuretics are given to get rid of the sodium, the body becomes more dehydrated. The "dry mouth" level
of dehydration is reached and some water is taken to compensate. The use of diuretics m aintain the body at an
expanding level of deficit wat er management. They do not cure hypertension; they m ake the body more determined
for salt and water absorption—however, never enough to correct the problem. That is why, a fter a while, diuretics
are not enough and supplemental medications will  be forced on the patient. Another problem in assessme nt of hypertension is its m eans of measurement. Anxiety associated with having
hypertension will automatically affect the person at examination time. Readings of the instruments may not reflect
the true, natural, and normal blood pressur e. An inexperienced or hasty medical practitioner, more in fear of
litigation than mindful of accur acy of judgment, might assume the patient to have hypertension, whereas the person
might only have an instant of "clinic anxiety," thus cau sing a higher reading of the instrument. One other very
important but less-known problem with the mechanism of reading blood pressure is the process of inflating the cuff
well above the systolic reading, and then letting the air out until the pulse is heard. Every large (and possib ly small) artery has a companion nerve that is there to monitor the flow of blood through the
vessel. With the loss of pressure beyon d the cuff that is now inflated to very high levels, the process of "pressur e"
opening of the obstruction in the arteries will be triggered. By the time the pressur e in the cuff is lowered to read the
pulsation level, the recording of an artificially induced higher blood pressure will become unavoidable. Unfortunately,
the measurement of hypertension is so arbitrary (and based on the diastolic level) that in this litigious so ciety a
minor error in assessment may label a person hype rtensive. This is when all the "fun and games" begin! Water by itself is the best natural diuretic. If the persons who have hypertension, and produce adequate urine,
increase their daily water intake, they will not need to take any diuretics. If prolonged "hype rtension-producing
dehydration" has also caused heart failure complications, water intake should be increased gradually. In this way,
one makes sur e that fluid collection in the body is not excessive and unmanageable. The mechanism of sodium retention in these people is in an "overdrive" mode. When water intake is increased
gradually and more urine is being produced, the edema fluid ("swelling") that is full of toxic substances will be
flushed out, and the heart will regain its strength. The following letters are presented here with the kind permission
of their authors, who  wished to share their welcome experiences with the readers of this book. Dear Dr. Batmanghelidj,

I have just ordered another copy of your book on water, having given a son my first copy. I tell everybody about it
and my experiences. Perhaps you would be interested. My first so n Charles, 58, who lives with me is deaf and autistic. I take him 3 or 4 days a  week to a facility for the
handicapped. They had been taking his blood pressure there and notified me that the doctor said he should go on
medication - his BP wa s 140-160/100-104.1 had just received your book and asked  the M.D. to let me experimen t
for 2 weeks. Reluctantly he agreed, but warned me it was very dangerous. I kept Charles home and used the water routine, also adding a little magnesium a nd potassium. Two weeks later the nurse took his BP. and it was 106/80. She said-"The doctor will be in shortly"- evidently the
M.D. didn't believe her and he checked  it himself and had to admit it was so. He didn't ask me what I did, so I did
not tell him about water, but if the BP. continues as it is, I will tell him. I went on the water routine too without any particular problem in mind, but noticed that in about 10 days m ytendency to get dizzy if I moved my head quickly had disappeared. I also had been unable to lower my head to flat
at nights and had to have several pillows. Now lam much better, and have had only one spell in over a month: I am
82 and a 1/2. Thank you for the work you are doing - it is much needed. More power to you. Marjori Ramsay. If you can find out why this doctor was not interested in discov ering how Ch arles's mother brought his blood
pressur e back to normal, you  will then realize why we have a health care crisis o n our hands!! Micha el Peck has in the past been involved in an administrative capacity with the Foundation for the Simple in
Medicine. The foundation is a medical research ("think tank") institution. At a scientific and public education level,
the foundation is engaged in the introduction of the paradigm shift on water metabolism of the body in this country. Mr Pe ck briefly explains his medical problems since childhood. Who in the world would have thought so many
disparate medical conditions co uld be related, and after so many years, these conditions would disappear as a
result of a simple adjustment to daily water intake? The solution to Mr. Peck's medical problems was so unique his

Dear Dr. F. Batmanghelidj,
This letter is a testimony to  the merits of water as an essential part of the daily dietary requirements for good health. I have been following your recommendations for nearly five years, and have found myself taking for granted the
positive effects of water intake. When I first started on the program I was overweight, with high blood pressure and suffering from asthma and
allergies, which I have had since a small child. l had been receiving treatment for these conditions. Today, I have my
weight and blood pressure under control (weight loss of approximately 30 pounds and a 10 point drop in blood
pressur e). The program reduced the frequency of asthma and allergy related problems, to the point of practical
nonexistence. Additionally, there were other benefits, I experienced fewer colds and flus, and generally with less
severity. I introduced this program to my w ife, who  had been on blood pressure medication for the past four yea rs, and
through increased water intake has recently been able to eliminate her medication. Thanks again for your program,
Micha el Peck
Micha el Paturis is a fellow Rotarian. He first became aware of my work when I was a sked to speak before his clu b a
few y ears ago. One day we had lunch together and I explained in detail why hype rtension and fat accumulation in
the body are generally the consequences of chr onically occur ring dehydration. He accep ted my a dvice of increasing
his daily water intake. He also convinced his wife to adopt the measure. Please note the impact of increased water
intake on allergies and asthma that have been stated in the two letters. Lt. Col. Walter Burmeister has observed the effect of water on his own blood pressure. As y ou can read in his letter,
which is being published with his kind consent, he, too, has experienced a drug-free and nature-designed
adjustment to his blood pressure. If water is a natural diuretic, why do intelligent and appearing-to-be-learned people still insist on using chemicals to
get rid of water from the kidneys? As far  as I am concerned, this action constitutes negligence. Since this action will
eventually damage the kidneys, and ultimately the heart, its practice should stop. My colleagues who  still insist on blindly using diuretics in the treatment of hypertension are walking into foreseeable
litigations for negligent treatment of their patients. The new information will provide their patients with sufficient
insight to understand what damages have been caused in them by the stupid way of asserting the treatment of
"hype rtension" with diuretics. Let the February 1995 class action suit of smokers against the tobacco industry be a
lesson for the health care industry. LAW  OFFICES  OF MICHAEL   PATURIS

 as
has been suggested, is threefold: to delay the man, accelerate the

techniques of coitus were developed with these goals in n1ind. When we borrow from this art for the tnodern bedrootn, it

lovcnuking-physical con1patibility. COI TAL FIT
Sorne cou ples arc unaware that n1crc genital incompatibility, es
pecially discrepancy in size, n1ay be the reason for their sexual
problcn1s. Anthropologists tell us that human beings have the
largest brains and genitals a1nong the primates. The average length
of an erect hun1an penis is 6 inches, or 15 centimeters. The aver
age depth of the human vagina is 4 inches, or 1 o centimeters. This
difference is not a problen1 in itself, as the vagina is clastic and in
intercourse the degree of penetration varies. Difficulties arise, however, when there is a marked discre
pancy of genital size betw een partners. Unless care is used, for in
stance, too long a penis or too shallow a vagina could mean pain
and injury to a woman in the heat of passion. On the other hand, a
small penis may give pleasure to neither partner. In extreme cases,
violent penetration by a long penis may lacerate the vaginal vault
and induce life-threatening internal bleeding. Unless a woman
has a loose vagina, literally speaking, too long a penis is a curse
rather than a blessing for her. Writers of crude pornography the world over extol enormous
penises, as if a woman's sexual pleasure were in direct proportion
to the length of her partner's organ. If so, a donkey would be a
better lover than any hu1nan n1alc. In more sophisticated erotic lit
erature, genital size is scldon1 a matter tor concern. And in prac
tice, in fact, there arc "remedies" for disproportion. To prevent
injury to partners, Frcnchn1en with undesirably long organs usc

acteristic slenderness, the Chinese consider a very long penis a
disadvantage, and a large clitoris repulsive. The ancient Taoist
sexologists valued skill over equipment, and art over skill. As the
n1agician says, it is not the size of the wand, but the magic in it. Coital fit can be in1proved to a large extent by choosing an
appropriate position for copulation, as shown later in this chapter. Furthermor e, size should not be the focus. It is not phallic size
but phallic performance, proven through the durability of the
erection, and orgasmic brinkmanship that arc essential for sexual
pleasure. ORGASMIC BRINK MANSHIP
Talk of sexual pleasure is much ado about nothing, if in coitus a
n1an ejaculates soon after insertion. Here, as we have seen, the an
cient Chinese techniques of male delaying or withholding are of
in1mense value. First a quick look at the physiology of orgasm. During love
play and coitus, if physical and psychological stimulation con
tinue and intensify, the sexual tension in either or both partners
mounts until it is suddenly discharged. This sexual release is or
gasn1, also known as clin1ax or coming. It norn1ally lasts only a
few seconds, during which an individual undergoes involuntary
n1uscular contractions, experiences ecstatic pleasure, and becomes
oblivious to external surroundings. The French have an apt nan1e
for this sexual lightning: Ia petite mort (the little death). Male and female orgastns arc not exactly the san1e. In a n1an,
orgasn1 is genitally oriented, explosive, and altnost ahvays acconl

was this very problent that inspired ancient Taoists, who prided
thcntsdves in pleasing \\'onten sexually, to devise the trick of
org astni c brink nunsh ip. The 111cchanisn1 of rnall' L:iaculat ion is quite complex. When a
rnan reacht•s orgasrn, invo luntary rnuscks of the prostate, serninal
ducts, and St'rninal reservoirs begin a series of contractions, torc
ing tht' fluids they contain into the urethra. The man has reached
a stage that Mast ers and Johnson call '\jaculatory inevitabi lity":
at this point t:iaculation cannot he stopped. Contractions in the
urethra and prostate now tl. )rce the sen1en out of the penis. The ancient Taoist s consider ed this proce ss not always inevi
table, and beca use they belie ved that rnost if not all bodily pro
cesses were aftl. ·cted by the n1ind, they set out to find a way to stop
or delay it. They devised a nun1bcr of n1ind-body techn iques to
arrest the ejaculation of scn1en, just before the point of "inevita
bility" was reached. Since orgasn1 and ejaculation involve mostly
the autonornic nervous systern and involuntary muscles, a man
n1t1st deliberately usc his n1ind to train his nervous system to in
fluence his body. When he has mastered the technique, a man can
delay ejaculation during sexual intercourse or, if he wants to, avoid
ejaculation altogether. Mentally, the technique of orgasmic brinkmanship involves a
relaxed approach, deliberate distraction from sexual sensations,
and willpower not to ejaculate. Physically, it requires unhurried,
shallow thrustings; deep breathing; a slowdown, pause, or com
plete withdrawal when sensations mount
