 of the time—when I had a
particular moment of incredible, singular bliss. But not these days.
Today I can experience that without necessarily having it be
accompanied by, or be an intrinsic part of, some kind of transcendent
moment.

DR. COOPER : Yes. I got it. Well, thank you for those tools. I’m
excited to try them!Chapter Six

MEDICAL MIRACLES:
Are They Within Our Reach?

DR. COOPER: The concep t of “medical miracles”—wh ether they
exist and, if so, what increases one’s chance of having a “miracle”—
has been debated and discussed both in the medical and the
spiritual literature. Y et the two have contrasting viewpoints.
Medical science holds the viewpoint that “miracles” are rare and
out of our control; that they defy all logical understanding. Yet
spiritual teache rs across the globe have been saying otherwise for
as far back as anyone can remember.
Still, no solid conclusions have been reached about medical
miracles, and how they come  about. It is certainly a topic that invites
us to consider the very title of this book.  For it seems to me that the
Intersection of the Physical and the Spiritual  would be the most likely
realm from which a miracle could, and possibly would, emerge.

NEALE: Let’s stop for a mom ent to define the word “miracle.” Let’s
start off giving our readers a chance to understand... because
“miracle” is a big word.

DR. COOPER: It is.
NEALE: I am holding, in my vocabulary, that a “miracle” is an event
—and, in the context of this book, it’s a medical event, or a health
occurrence—that stands outside of, that runs against, all the odds of
what would normally or usua lly occur in a circumstance surrounding
a particular medical condition. That is, it defies the odds for sure, and
it appears to be an occurrence that has no logical explanation from a
strictly medical, from a traditional medical, point of view. So that’s
how I would define a miracle.
And, of course, we all know that they occur. Doctors are
astonished and flummoxed and often shocked and surprised by
certain turns of events that occur in the lives of their patients from
time to time. So we have known throughout human history that
miracles occur. As you just said, the question becomes: Why, and
how?

DR. COOPER: Yes, it absolutely becomes why, and how, do
miracles happen...
But before we delve into that, I have an important observ ation
about the medical profession in general, and this is that the whole
foundation of medical science is based on  probabilities.
What I mean by this is that anytime a patient has a disease,
technically we do not know what is going to happen. There is no
hundred-percent guarantee that the person will get better, or get
worse, or need surgery, or not need surgery, or live, or even die for
that matter. All we can offer the patient is our best guess as to what
will occur next.It’s really kind of a statistical way of looking at things. It’s like
saying, “Okay, 95 out of 100 patients with this illness are going to
proceed in the following way.” And the way in which medical
treatments are designed is to try to group people in the most
probable way in which their outcome will ensue.
What this means is two things. First of all, it means that
“medical miracles” have to exist by virtue of the fact that we cannot
logically (and scientifically) account for all possible outcomes. That
is, if we are treating based on probabilities and the likelihood of
certain outcom es occurring, there will be by definition  a select few
cases that are deemed “miracles” because the outcome was so
unexpected it could never have been predicted or anticipated based
on the medical research.
Secondly, though, and perhaps more importantly, it opens the
question and the discussion around what explains medical miracles?
Because the mystery behind “medical miracles” is not only that they
are exceedingly rare, but perhaps more intriguingly that they are for
the most part utterly and completely unexplainable by modern
medicine and science! This is where the “spiritual door” opens, and
invites us to consider a new perspective. We begin to ask what, in
fact, could be responsible for such a drastic shift for the better in
someone’s state of health and wellbeing?
Anita Moorjani, author of Dying To Be Me, is an advocate  for
the idea that “miraculous healing” can occur at the behest of the
soul.6 Having been diagnosed with a terminal cancer, Moorjani
experienced herself “dying” and “crossing over to the other side,”
only to realize that the journey of her soul was to come back to
experience life as a gift (which she called “Heaven on Earth”), and toshare her experience with others. She went on to write a bestselling
book about it, which has certainly touched the lives of many, many
people.
So to summarize what I’m trying to say here, medicine is about
predicting future outcomes based on past data and past outcomes. It
utilizes the mind to synthesize all of the previous data from similar
cases in order to create an anticipated outcome, which is called the
patient’s “prognosis.”
But nowhere in western medicine is there space for the soul.
The soul, I believe, is open to all possible outcomes—even those
that cannot be explained by past data, or by the so-called “most
likely trajectory” of the illness.  So it is completely understandable that
there could be a spiritual underpinning to some of the most
unexplainable outcomes that have so often been deemed “medical
miracles.”
This is precisely what happened for Anita Moorjani.
And I happen to believe that it can occur for anyone, should it
be what their soul absolutely and unequivocally desires.

NEALE: It is entirely understandable that the medical profession
would, at first blush, reject the idea of miracles as a “to-be-counted-
on” occurrence  in medical circumstances precisely because, while
the medical profession admits and acknowledges that miracles do
occur, such outcomes do not occur with sufficient reliability or
predictability to satisfy any reasonable projection of expectation, to
say nothing of literally a scientific prognosis,  for a patient’ s future.
So precisely because the nature of miracles is that they’re
entirely unexpe cted, unpredic table, and inconsistent, doctors have towarn—and we, as authors of this book, need to warn our readers as
well—not to look for or depend on miracles as their highest
probability. We need to make it clear to the people who are reading
this material that, while we agree that miracles occur, and that
they’re an observable part of humanity’ s experience of itself and
have been, as we said, across thousands and thousand s of years,
we nevertheless don’t want this chapter to give people false hope
that there is some kind of a process—some kind of meta physical or
spiritual process—that is guaranteed to produce miracles routinely.
So that presents an interesting dichotomy! For us as writers,
and for the people in the world. The Dichotomy is that at the same
time that we say that miracles occur, and that we believe that there
are certain conditions and circumstances that could reasonably be
described as causing  them to occur, in the self-same moment we are
making it clear to people that they should not feel “let down,” or
disappointed by life, if a miracle does not occur in any particular
case.
So the Divine Dichotomy there—the interesting circumstance—
is that we invite people to use the power of positive thinking as part of
a mental and spiritual approach to the creation of miracles, at the
same time that we discourage people from expecting, demanding, or
requiring that their spiritual approach will generate the outcomes that
they desire.

DR. COOPER : I would venture to say that one of the dangers  of
spirituality today is the notion that there is a reliable “spiritual
process” by which all illness can be cured. I do not believe this to be
the case.I believe it is a dangerous thought not only because it is untrue
(or at least an “incomplete teaching”), but also because it causes
people to feel at fault if they are unable to cure themselves. Some
people may also go as far as to feel somehow metaphysically
responsible for “attracting” the disease to themselves in the first
place! So if we’re not careful, this type of thinking can actually
multiply the negative effects of the disease. There is a fine balance
that needs to be respected here, and as a physician—as someone in
the healing profession—I am acutely aware of it.
I would say that it impacts my work in two regards. First of all, it
makes me very aware and cognizant of the effects it might  have on a
patient to give a specific prognosis. By prognosis, I mean an
“expected outcome”—an expected trajectory for the disease, if you
will.
While this information can be useful to patients, it can also be
harmful to the degree that it closes one’s mind to other possibilities.
So in giving prognostic information to patients, I would assess each
case separately in terms of how


ucumber Salad
1 lb. red-leaf lettuce
8 oz. tomatoes
8 oz. cucumbers
1 oz. pistachios
Directions: Chop lettuce into a bowl. Peel and slice ½ of the cucumbe r. Dice the tomato.  Blend the other half with pistachios
and cucumber for the dressing.

Autumn Menu Plan: Day Two

BREAKFAST
Plums
2 lbs. plums

LUNCH
Fuyu Persimmon
2 lbs. fuyu persimmon
Directions: For those who may not be familiar with the persimmon, the fu yu is a nonastringent variety that can be eaten
relatively hard or soft, depending on your preference. The peel is edible, thou gh some people prefer to eat the fruit without it.
† Fuyus are ready to eat when the four-leaf-clover-shaped top pull s off readily without excessive breakage to the leaves. The
fuyu is smaller in size than its relative the hachiya, so it takes  more of them to equate to the same calories.

DINNER
Course 1: Blended Grapes
1 lb. red seedless grapes
Directions: Pull grapes off the stem and blend them into a grape drink.
† Blend in a stalk or two of celery for a salty twist, but make sure you ble nd the celery first and then add the grapes. Doing
this ensures that the fibers of the celery get broken up well. If y ou’d like to make it even smoother, then chop the celery into small
pieces before you blend it.

Course 2: Kiwi Cucumber Soup
1 lb. kiwis
8 oz. cucumbers
2 oz. pomegranate seeds
Directions: Peel the kiwi and the cucumber. Blend 10 oz. kiwi and all the cuc umber to form the soup base. Slice the remaining
kiwi, and stir it into the soup or arrange on top for garnish. Sprinkle pomegrana te seeds on top for a splash of flavor, texture, and
color.

Course 3: Kiwi Strawberry Salad
1 lb. red-leaf lettuce
8 oz. cucumbers
8 oz. strawberries
8 oz. kiwi
Directions: Prep the lettuce and slice cucumber into a bowl. Peel the ki wi. Remove the strawberry tops ( if desired, or blend
them in as well). Blend the kiwi and strawberry, and dress your salad.

† Add a tablespoon of raw carob powder to the mix for a carob milk treat!

LUNCH
Hachiya Persimmon
2 lbs. hachiya persimmons
Directions: The hachiya is best eaten by pulling the top clover leaf of f and sucking the insides out. The skin of this fruit is edible
and thinner than the fuyu. No peeling is necessary or even possible wit h the hachiya persimmon.
† Unlike the fuyu, the hachiya is an astringent variety of persim mon. When unripe, the tannins of this fruit will leave you with a
chalky feeling in your mouth. You know this fruit is ripe when it feels  so soft it that is seems it should fall apart in your hands.
However, it can take anywhere from a couple of weeks to a couple of months for  this fruit to reach its peak. I like to say, “buy them
at Thanksgiving and eat them at Christmas.” Y ou may find that some h ave black spots on the outside. This is the result of external
sun damage, but it does not affect the fruit’s quality.

DINNER
Course One: Plums
1.5 lbs. plums

Course Two: Cabbage Red Pepper Soup
8 oz. red cabbage
8 oz. red peppers
8 oz. cucumbers
Directions: Peel the cucumber. Blend everything, and enjoy!

!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!5Chapter 1Introduction to Water FastingWater Fasting is a concept that is new to many people, but in reality it is a tradition and healing method that has existed on this earth for more than 2,000 years.  When done correctly, water fasting is completely safe and harmless to the body.  It’s always best to build up slowly with water fasting, perhaps trying 3 days at ﬁrst and then in the next fast working to go further.    Many people will strive to do 7, 10, 14 or 21 days of complete water fasting, and it can be done for up to 40 days safely. The most important aspects of this type of program are preparing the body well to go into the fast and being sure to break the fast very, very gently.  The beneﬁts are vast and well worth the effort, extending far beyond the level of cleansing that one can attain from a juice fast.REALLY, ONLY WATER?This is the most common question I am asked when I discuss water fasting to someone.  They are in disbelief over the concept of only drinking water for a duration of a fast.  The conversation will go like this:Me: ‘I’m doing a water fast so I’m moving a bit slow at the moment.’Them: ‘Oh, wow.  Only water? What else do you take?’Me: ‘Only water, yes. And one water enema a day.’Them: ‘No pills? No psyllium? No juice?’Me: ‘No, only water.’Them: ‘So nothing at all besides water?  No minerals?’Me: ‘Just water and more water.’Them: ‘Nothing else at all?  No honey? No lemon?’Me: ‘No, only water.’These are all very normal and common questions to ask when it comes to water fasting.  And admittedly, many people have different ideas on what a water fast should be.  Some people follow Natural Hygienists like Arnold Ehret who recommends having fresh lemon squeezed into the water every day.  Other people mistakenly call the ‘Master Cleanse’ a water fast, when in reality that program is a liquid diet consisting of lemon juice, cayenne pepper and maple syrup.  Of course there is nothing wrong with the Master Cleanse, especially because it is a very easy cleanse and it’s quite gentle on the body, but for sure it is not a water fast.The true deﬁnition of water fasting is to consume only water for the duration of the fast.  Drinking juice is not actually considered a fast; it’s considered to be a ‘juice diet.’  During a water fast, no juices are consumed. Usually during a water fast, it is recommended to do one daily enema to gently cleanse the bowels.  It is important to note that some Natural Hygienists disagree with this and instead recommend doing nothing but leaving the body to rest.  From my experience, which you will soon read for yourself, I would highly recommend the daily enema.Introduction to Water Fasting
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!4BENEFITS OF WATER FASTINGWater fasting is certainly not easy and requires a lot of mental determination.  If one can endure a longer water fast especially, they are sure to beneﬁt from an increase in energy levels, a cleaning of the lymph and blood, a chance for the body to expel excess toxins, clearing of the skin, improved hearing and eyesight, better mental clarity and an overall sense of peace and calm.In the book The Live Food Factor by Susan Schenck, there is a very good chapter on Water Fasting.  She herself did a 36-day water fast in 1992 and has personally experienced the beneﬁts.  Susan writes, ‘Most of the healing beneﬁts in body, mind and spirit that I harvested then have lasted to this day.’In her book, Susan quotes Dr. Mark Mattson, PhD from the National Institute on Aging.  His studies found that mice fasting every other day lived longer and were healthier than controls.  He states:‘All living organisms make use of the extra rest during fasting to revitalize.  This added rest serves to free up energy so that the body can normalize body weight, heart rate and blood pressure.  The body can further make cellular upgrades as needed, establish overall health and prolong life.’Dr. Douglas Graham is a well-known raw foodist and author of the 80-10-10 Diet.  He has a clinic in Costa Rica where he offers supervised water fasts from 21 days up to 40 days if needed.  Introduction to Water Fasting
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!5According to Dr. Douglas Graham:‘Fasting is a way to overcome this lethargy, rejuvenate and renew your body, and reclaim your vigor. You can literally watch yourself grow younger. Life will never be the same after a fast, as you ﬁnd ﬁtness becomes easier, thinking becomes clearer, and most of all your life and energy returns.’In Cleanse and Purify Thyself Book Two, Dr. Richard Anderson describes the beneﬁts of water fasting:-‘Eliminates harmful undigested proteins and fats-Eliminates excessive proteins, fats, sugars, cholesterol, acids-Strengthens and improves functions of all organs and glands-Removes harmful negative emotions stored at cell level-Releases congestion in lymph, blood, organs and cells-Puriﬁes the lungs so that greater amounts of oxygen can enter the system-Tunes and tones all tissues, especially the skin and muscles-Improves digestion-Improves all senses and mental abilities. Expands awareness and inner knowing.’Introduction to Water Fasting
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!6T.C. Fry, a well-known Natural Hygienist, describes how fasting works in his book Program for Dynamic Health:‘Natural Hygiene offers supervised bed rest and fasting in a calm, quiet environment as the most effective, efﬁcient and sensible means of dealing with (most) illness and disease.It is obvious and provable that healing (and getting well) is a normal activity of the body.  When you burn, bruise or cut yourself or when a surgeon operates or sets a broken bone, it is the body that heals itself, not the bandage, stitches, cast nor the surgeon.  Healing is a normal body process which goes on all the time in relation to the amount of energy available for it.The body only has so much energy available to do all the things it has to do.  The amount of energy consumed in physical movement each day is signiﬁcant.  The energy used in eating, digesting, absorbing and assimilating food is tremendous.  Bed rest and fasting allow the body to save all this energy and use it to repair tissue, restore function and ‘clean house’ in general.’Water fasting, when done properly, can open up doors to a whole new level of health.  It is truly an amazing experience and will deﬁnitely lead to a new respect and awareness for the body’s innate ability to heal itself.Introduction to Water Fasting
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!7WATER FASTING IS NATURAL AND SAFEThe initial reaction of many people when they hear about water fasting for the ﬁrst time is ‘that’s not healthy’ or ‘that can’t be natural’ or ‘that sounds extreme and dangerous.’  It is very common to see people resist the idea.  One thing to recognize is that all animals in nature fast when they are sick.  They ﬁnd a place to hide and rest and they do not eat until they feel better.  It’s a natural instinct for them, as it should be for humans.  Except humans have been re-conditioned by western medicine and drugs companies to believe the ‘pill for every ill’ theory.  By now people should be well aware of the fallacy of that claim.When animals fast, they don’t take supplements or wheatgrass shots or juices; they simply drink water and naturally abstain from all food until they feel well.  Little did we know how intelligent they really are, to rest and let the body heal itself!  We have much to learn still.It is important to prepare the body well for a water fast, being sure that there are no mineral deﬁciencies, cleaning the colon with some intestinal cleansing and then moving gently into pure water by drinking only juices for a number of days.  If someone is extremely toxic from a typical Standard American Diet and they have never done any type of cleansing before, then they


 deep sleep for up to several months. Team America
scientists invented for this special blend of salt and ice
that the introduction of a man rapidly cools the blood. This plasma
rapidly reduces body temperature to 37 ° C to 10 ° C slows
metabolism, and the man falls into a kind of hibernation.
However, while the new method was tested only on pigs,
which was immersed in such a dream a few hours. But
Scientists believe that "hibernation" can stretch into days, weeks and even
months.
However, not all as easy as it looks at first glance.
frozen people need anyway to feed
by intravenous injection and remove their waste. Hair
and the nails will not cease to grow, and deep sleep does not stop aging.
in the nature of these problems, avoid a bear.
Breakthrough in study of the human "sleep" is extremely important for
science in general and medicine in particular: because it will
possible return to the lives of people who drowned in the icy
water. It will also provide more opportunities for treatment
severe wounds and will revive someone whose heart stopped beating
several hours.
Hence, at certain moments and in humans, like hibernating,
may "trigger" mechanisms to remove thermogenesis? Here are just a
what are these mechanisms?
M. Buyanov, commenting on the famous case of lethargic
sleep for 20 years to a woman, concluded that
lethargy - the same thing as hibernation, however,
stipulating that a person is - always pathological.
Analyzing these cases are described by journalists (in the scientific
literature published about them can not be found), you can catch
definite regularity - a man able to live while
without breathing and cardiac activity, ie in a state of clinical
death is much more critical of those 5-6 minutes, after which
irreversible changes occur in the brain, if you will be met
the following conditions:
• if the victim is immobile;
• if his body will be refrigerated;
• If this state will be preceded by a shock or a
or other stress.
39
39As we analyze the case all these conditions are present: a girl got on
frost in the unconscious; shock with a reflex stop
Breathing was a boy (or he just drowned to water);
severe trauma preceded lethargic
sleeping women, as they say, the yogis are able to arouse a shock
artificially. All of them were motionless, all observed
significant reduction in body temperature.
Is it really should be categorically determine a person's ability
fall into a state of hibernation (hypobiosis) as pathological?
Some scientists believe that the fall in the state and even hypobiosis
hibernation - the inalienable right of all life on Earth, including
plants and all animals, but man it can not be realized by
its specific evolution. "Not implemented", and we see - realized it!
However, until now, we do not know how, thanks to some mechanism
implemented a universal property of living matter specifically
in humans, but this, as they say, is another question.
In clinical medicine in the fifties and sixties
with a light hand and Laborie Gyugenara appeared craze
Artificial hibernation (hibernatio - hibernation), especially
in surgery of heart and large vessels. Now this fascination has passed
but something useful from this extract failed. For example,
revealed that the patient's body temperature decrease by only 1 °
reduced metabolic rate him at 5-6%, thus lowering
patient's body temperature by 20 °, can be done to reduce
exchange in the 100 (!) times, but in practice this means that a person in such
state could survive without food and water for 1-2 days, and at least 100
days, ie more than 3 months. At the same time until the temperature optimum,
inherent hibernating during hibernation (about +5 ° C) persisted
would be a significant time interval, which could allow for lower
exchange rate to tenths and even hundredths of one, thereby bringing
the possibility of human hibernation for several months hibernating hibernating.
However revealed something else: the main and still irresistible
obstacle to dive into a state of artificial human
hibernation is a muscular thermogenesis, especially tremor.
It occurs whenever an attempt to lower body temperature
below 28 ° C, even if it were applied relaxants and anesthesia.
Tremor occurred warmed by the body, but if the cooling is still
continued, there came the energy depletion of the body, with
warming of shivering was not, but the patient often perished. As
Studies have shown that in muscle, even completely denervated,
cooling it to 28 ° tremor occurs spontaneously - perhaps a
struggle with the cold in the muscle of genetically programmed.
Nevertheless, there are moments even in humans, when this barrier is at 28 ° C
becomes impossible to overcome when people cold, even below
this critical temperature, is able to return to normal
life - we see it in the above cases!
If we talk only about the temperature of the body, then the person are
40
40states in which the body temperature begins to uncontrollably
fall to the lowest, if not critical, digits: this crisis
state of severe infectious diseases, and deep
shock or profound hypoglycemia. Especially in this respect
indicative of septic and burn shock.
What's the matter? Perhaps, in the case of deep shock or
hypoglycemia trigger the same mechanisms as the confluence
into hibernation in hibernating? Maybe the shock - the same blank protection
nezimospyaschego for the extreme conditions that hibernation - for
zimospyaschego? In principle, the cold and dry hunger for hibernating -
too extreme conditions!
Having mastered the way to cause people hypobiosis (dormant)
artificial way, you can get into the hands of a powerful arsenal
means to combat the most severe pathological conditions
and diseases, many of which are now eliminated or
difficult or impossible.
- So, the experiment proved the feasibility of a hibernating
radical deliverance only sleep (!) of such serious
diseases such as syphilis, tripanosomnaya disease. There is every reason
assume that this method could be to fight sepsis
and even AIDS, since there is evidence of the successful struggle
using hibernation and viral diseases.
- Total disintegration of the body, observed at hibernation,
can contribute to saving lives tyazheloobozhzhennym and
also affected with extensive crush and compression
tissue, if applied to the deploying hypobiosis toxemia - so
thus be excluded major pathological factor in injury
and prevented the development and deepening of the secondary necrosis and wound
infection. This category of victims is now the most difficult (and
expensive!) for resuscitation.
- Known immunity to lethal doses of hibernating
bacterial and chemical poisons, and ionizing radiation
The same insensitivity observed in the experiment and with the
close-to-human animals - monkeys, which were irradiated
sesquioxide lethal dose of ionizing radiation in the state
clinical death, ie, the same hypobiosis. All control

Dr. 0. { New York, USA}
I was laughing and snickering in the back of the rpom, After all, who would take
anyone seriously talking about drinking
one's own urine to heal any disease!
My main concern at the time was how I was going to handle this diagnosis of
full-blown AIDS and with what "spirituality" was I going to handle an oral, palatal
Kaposi's sarcoma lesion that was supposed to spread relentlessly throughout my
body. I was told just two months prior to this that the prognosis could be about
two years more if 1 was fortunate, and to seriously consider preparing a
fl1iving wm.n
For obvious reasons, I seemed to be much more tolerant to the idea of applying
urine topically for all sorts of conditions.
, - My right foot was the epitome of necrosis.
For months doctors had prescribed many different medicated creams for a
vicious case of athlete's foot/ringworm.
Nothing seemed to work. After all, the root of the problem is the immune system
not functioning at fuU capacity.
I couldn't wait to go home to put my own urine on the foot.
That evening was the first time in many months that the tingling itch did not drive
me into a frenzy! I actually got a full night of sleep.
Not only did the ringworm condition tota11y disappear after a few weeks,
but the dry, cracked and painful skin all around my toes and bottom of the foot
had totally changed in color and texture
New skin had grown in and was soft as a baby's.
It had a beautiful new flushed, almost orange-like color and it just did not appear
to be my own skin!
I anxiously began to research the field of autogenous fluids and,
shortly thereafter decided that recycling my urine was really a harmless form of
auto-toleration based on theories not much different than those in the science of
homeopathy.
Drinking my urine was not that difficult, but deconditioning myself was the real
chore. 1 felt betrayed by society upon learning that our urine is not a poisonous,
toxic and filthy substance that our bodies so heroically expel.
Since urine is filtered and cleansed blood, and the blood is 95% water,
IIO how many dangerous substances can there really be in urine? ·
Starting with just a small ounce, I gradually began drinking my body's own
distilled preparation with respect instead of disgust
I then graduated to drinking up to 8 ounces daily.
Over the next 7 months the Kaposi's sarcoma Jesion became increasingly smaller
until it disappeared totally! The mouth ulcers that used to plague me,
stinging during meals, have not returned even once.
I used to have monthly outbreaks of genital herpes, but I am elated to say that
autogenous UrineTherapy has produced a state of tolerance even against the
herpes virus that sooner or later, in conjunction with Ebstein-Barr virus (EBV),
Cytometgalovirus (CMV), and papilloma virus would have surely complicated my
existence and further weakened my immune system... just a matter of time.
I have NEVER felt better in my life. Now, I no longer fear for my life.

Seven years ago, I was diagnosed with a lymphatic disorder.
The doctors first thought it was Hodgkin's disease.
During a vacation in Brazil I contracted some parasites.
One was Shigella and the other was Giardia.
I was treated with penicillin and many other antibiotics.
But 1 sti111ost weight and the diarrhea was persistent.
Then the new testing for AIDS came out, and I tested positive.
I had constant problems with thrush. I also suffered from Kaposi's sarcoma
intermittently over portions of my body. My energy level was very low.
To make long story short, I started Urine Therapy. The first treatment with urine
was on my skin. The second day I noticed that the KS lesions were starting to
fade. Then I stared to drink my own urine.
I took about one ounce a day in the beginning.
My thrush went away. Every time when I apply urine to any aberration or sore on
my skin, it all but disappears.
The KS leision I was talking about is not even one-fourth the original size.

My wife was a r


 the vagina. Some yogis have become ill
from this practice, and thus all methods of semen retention have
gained a reputation in some circles as being unhealthy and leading
to impotence and prostate problems.
I warn my students never to suck in a woman's fluids. The
Taoist method of semen retention I teach is directed towards a
single goal—the transformation of sex energy, or ching, into higher
levels in the body, mind, and spirit. The sperm seed is held only so
its essence is not lost outside the body. The method is useless
unless the ching is withdrawn from the seed and pulled up and
circulated throughout the body. There is no need to draw in a
woman's sexual fluids inside your body; the head of the penis glans
is specially designed to absorb the woman's powerful essence di-
rectly through the skin.
But by far the most powerful exchange with this Taoist
method occurs on a level of subtle energy. That is why I teach all
my students to circulate their chi in the microcosmic orbit as the
prerequisite to understanding the cultivation of ching from the raw
physical level of sperm to the refined subtle energy of a shien, or
spiritual being. When they have opened their microcosmic orbit, it
is already a minor enlightenment. The mind has begun to realize it
has control over its own subtle energy. Ultimately you learn that all
mind is the movement of subtle energy.
LEARN TO CIRCULATE YOUR "CHI"
IN THE MICROCOSMIC ORBIT
The methods of chi cultivation explained in detail in this book—
from Testicle Breathing to the Big Draw method to the valley
orgasm—all involve drawing sexual energy stored in the testicles
up the spinal column and into the brain. When full, this energy will
come down the front into the throat, heart, and navel. The brain
and pituitary gland will aid in distributing this powerful energy to
wherever it is needed, whether for fighting off illness, answering a
child's question, painting, or making love. This is a unique at-The Secrets of Semen Retention 115
tribute of sexual ching over other types of chi with special func-
tions, such as liver chi. Sex energy is extraordinarily versatile, and
can be transformed into many different functions. This is one
reason it is so nourishing to our spiritual being. It can easily digest
it, almost as if it were baby food.
It is much easier to cultivate your energy if you first under-
stand the major paths of energy circulation in the body. The ner-
vous system in humans is very complex and is capable of directing
energy wherever it is needed. But the ancient Taoist masters dis-
covered there are two energy channels that carry an especially
strong current.
One channel is called the "Functional," or "Yin" Channel. It
begins at the base of the trunk midway between the testicles and
the anus at a point called the perineum. It goes up the front of the
body past the penis, stomach organs, heart, and throat up and ends
at the tip of the tongue. The second channel, called the "Gover-
nor," or "yang" channel, starts in the same place. It flows from
the perineum upwards into the tailbone and then up through the
spine into the brain and back down to the roof of the mouth.
The tongue is like a switch that connects these two currents—
when it is touched to the roof of the mouth just behind the front
teeth, the energy can flow in a circle up the spine and back down
the front. The two channels form a single circuit that the energy
loops around. This vital current circulates past the major organs
and nervous systems of the body, giving cells the juice they need to
grow, heal, and function. This circulating energy, known as the
microcosmic orbit, forms the basis of acupuncture, Western medi-
cal research has already acknowledged acupuncture as being
clinically effective, although scientists admit they cannot fully ex-
plain why the system works. The Taoist, on the other hand, have
been studying the subtle energy points in the body for thousands of
years and have verified in detail the importance of each channel.
It is this loop of energy about the body which also carries the
sexual current from the testicles and spreads the vitality to other
parts of the body. This has a profound effect on ycur health, as it
triggers the glands to release the sex stimulating hormones that
regulate body chemistry and ultimately affect your ability to do any
thing. It has an especially strong influence on the quality of your
love-making, as on the biological level sex is largely a question of
hormonal balance.116 Taoist Secrets Of Love

Learn to circulate your Chi in the Microcosmic
Orbit to assist mastery of semen retention
& transformation of sexual energy.The Secrets of Semen Retention 117
The sexual energy that moves in the microcosmic is a primor-
dial energy. Human life begins with the piercing of an egg by a
sperm cell. This is the original act of Kung Fu in the battle of yin
and yang. Sexual Kung Fu is the recreation of that act within the
male body. Only instead of forming a foetus from a fertilized egg
growing inside the woman's womb, the sperm energy penetrates to
higher energy centers inside the male body and gives birth to man
on a spiritual level. It is drawn upward by the microcosmic channel
where it literally gives a man a rebirth, a "new life"—the confi-
dence of controlling a powerful flow of creative energy and the
satisfaction of a deep sense of harmony. Whenever you are "in
love" with a woman or with life at large, energy is flowing into
your microcosmic orbit. It is the feeling of intense connectedness,
of being centered in the warm flowing current of life.
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE MICROCOSMIC ORBIT
By opening this microcosmic channel up and keeping it clear of
physical or mental blockages it is possible to pump greater amount
of sexual energy up the spine. If this channel is blocked by tension,
then during the sexual excitement of love-making the hot sperm
energy will seek the quickest alternate escape route and go out the
penis. The sexual power is then lost until the body goes through the
long and physically taxing process of manufacturing more sperm.
Some of man's power of magnetic sexual attraction is temporarily
lost by this discharge of sperm. There are some methods of kun-
dalini and tantric yoga that devise a very powerful flow of energy
up the spine to the head, using mantra, breathing techniques, yogic
postures and locks to channel the sperm power upwards. Leaving
to circulate the microcosmic orbit is an important step to sealing
this energy within the body so it will circulate and revitalize all
parts of the mind and body. Otherwise when intense pressure
builds in the head much of it escapes out the eyes, ears, nose and
mouth and is lost. This is like trying to heat a room with your body
heat while all the windows open—you're going to have a very high
fuel bill. You'll spend a lot of sperm energy that isn't recoverable
for immediate practical use, such as sharing it with your lover.
The easiest way to open the microcosmic energy channel is by
simply sitting in meditation a few minutes each morning and relax-
ing. Allow your energy to automatically complete the loop by let-118 Taoist Secrets Of Love
ting your mind flow along with it. Start in the eyes, and mentally
circulate with the energy as it goes down the front through your
tongue, throat, chest and navel and then up the tailbone and spine
to the head.
At first it will feel like nothing is happening, but eventually the
current will begin to feel warm in some places as it loops around.
The key is just to relax and try to bring your mind directly into the
part of the loop being focused on. This is different from visualizing
an image inside your head of what that part of the body looks like
or is feeling. Do not use your mind as if it were a T.V. picture.
Experience the actual chi flow. Relax and let your mind flow with
the chi in the physical body along a natural circuit to any desired
point e.g. your navel, perineum, etc.
Those interested in fully mastering this method of relaxation
and opening the microcosmic orbit can refer to my first book
"AWAKEN HEALING ENERGY THROUGH THE TAO." The
best lover is a fully relaxed man who understands what is going on
inside him. The man who masters this easy flow of energy inside
the body


watched my wife do just that during the years she was either pregnant ornursing, delivering five children  in eight years. As Lao-tzu teaches, if you
don’t attempt anything big, you will achieve greatness.
Almost every morning I do a 90-minute hot yoga class with 26 postures
and two breathing exercises. Now an hour and a half of intense activity in a
room that’s more than 105 degrees can seem not only big, but very difficult
as well. I’ve learned to change the way I think about this daily routine that I
enjoy so much, and now I find it to be easy. As the first breathing exercise
begins, I keep my mind and body totally focused on what I’m doing in the
opening moment. If my mind wants to wander to what I’ll be doing in an
hour, I just bring it back to the present. I look in the mirror and remind
myself that this exercise or posture is small and simple. Bingo —dif ficult is
out of the picture!
By pract icing in the present moment and training myself to stay in a state
of simplicity, I’ve made my 90-minute yoga class a snap. I’ve achieved
what I consider to be greatness in the little progressions and improvements
that have evolved naturally. It’s work without doing, and nonaction in
action because I’ve confronted what might have been thought of as tough.
The result is that I don’ t experience dif ficulty.
Lao-tzu urges you to change the way you look at your 21st-cent ury world
by doing the following:
Look for the simplicity in what you call complicated by seeing that in
this moment, it’ s not hard.
Change your preoccupation with tomorrow, along with all of the
tomorrows that comprise your future. My friend Byron Katie (whose
husband, Stephe n Mitchell, created a wonderful translation 63rd Verse of
the Tao Te Ching that I’ve incorporated in this book) gave me my favorite
definition of insanity: “To believe that you need what you don’t have is
insane.” I’d add, “Believing that you can’t be content and happy now
because your future appears to you to be difficult is another form of
insanity.”
Look at what you have and realize that you’re obviously fine in this
moment! A Course in Miracles states this idea so well: “You have no
problems, though you think you have.”Think small.
Change your notion of “thinking big” to “thinking small and getting big
things done.” Examine whatever it is that seems so enormous that it terrifies
you to start. Then shift your thinking to see what can be done today in your
precious presen t moments, completely ignoring the overal l picture. Your
accomplishments will magnify into greatness when you undertake the
small; by doing so, you’ll paradoxically see huge results.
Do the T ao Now
Set aside some time today to focus on the biggest challenge in your life.
Break down whatever it is to one thing that can be done today, right in this
moment. Erase the big picture—simply do what you can now and let
everything else fade. Write the opening paragraph of your novel. Lay out
your blueprint for the home you want to build. Sign up for one course at a
local educational institution. Go for a two-minute run. Be in the now. See
how doing the Tao at this moment brings big results by paradoxically
staying small and simple.

Being Here Now
“A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step” is the most
famous line of the entire Tao Te Ching. It’s quoted so often because it
encourages us to avoid procrast ination and just begin from where we are,
right here, right now. A tiny seed planted and nurtured grows into a forest; a
marathon begins by taking that first stride. In my opinion, the German poet
and playwright Johann von Goethe nicely summed up this ancie nt teaching
with these rhyming words:
Only engage, and then the mind gr ows heated,
begin it, and then the work will be completed.
The essence of the widely know n 64th verse of the Tao Te Ching is this:
Every goal is possible from here! With the emphasis on from here! This is
particularly applicable to problems that seem overwhelming. When you
change the way you think about them, your new and unique perspective will
cause the enormity of the things before you to diminish.
“The sage does not treasure what is difficult” because he breaks it down
into easily managed steps. Rather than taking over and directing others or
attempting to do everything himself, the follower of the Tao finds a way to
manage problems befor e they exist, and prior to disorder breakin g out. Lao-
tzu is encouraging us all to do the same.
Reexamine how you view the challenges you face, as well as those of
your family, community, and country. Sense in your heart how easily
preventable many of them are when you deal with things before they exist,
and when you refuse to be attached to the ideas  that are largely respon sible
for these problems.
There are three steps to enlightenment that most people traverse:
1. The first is through suffering. This is when the big problems of your
life become so overwhelming that a long period of misery ensues because
you “treasure what is difficult to attain.” Ultimately, you come to a placewhere you can look back at those huge obstacles —such as illness,
accidents, addic tion, financial loss, children’ s struggles, and divorce—and
see in retrospect that they were actually gifts disguised as problems. Yet this
is not the way of the T ao; this is not how a sage conducts his life.
2. The second is by being in the present moment. Here you’ve moved
closer to the Tao by asking yourself when a crisis erupts, What do I have to
learn from this experience right now? I know there’s a gift hidden for me in
this misfortune, and I’ll focus on looking for it.While this is Tao-centered
thinking, it’ s not all that Lao-tzu wants to convey in this 64th verse.
3. The third is by getting out in front of big problems. This means that you
act befor e difficulties occur, sense disorder coming your way, and manage it
in advance. This is the way of the Tao. “The small is easily scattered,” says
Lao-tzu. So here you’re the acute observer who’ s totally in tune with nature.
With foresight, you anticipate an argument, play it out in your mind in a
split second, and are able to neutralize the negative energy because you
were in front of it. You’ve respo nded by not acting in your former problem-
producing ways and are thus harmonized with the Tao. At this stage you
prevent difficulties rather than solve them.
This verse invites you to master the third or Tao-centered method. Here
are some suggestions for doing so: 64th V erse
Remind yourself of the inher ent value in practicing the most enduring
line fr om the entir e Tao Te Ching: “A journey of a thousand miles
begins with a single step.”
Forget about the end result: When you arrive where you thought you
wanted to be, you’ll just begin a new journey. So enjoy each step along the
way and keep in mind that every goal is possible from here. Just do one
thing, one day at a time.
Here’ s an examp le of this from my own life: It has now been almost two
decades since I’ve had a drink containing alcohol. Had I thought about not
drinking for 20 years, it would have been overwhelming and really difficult
—yet I’ve done it, one day at a time. I can’t speak for the next 20 years, but
one thing I’m absolutely certain  of is that today, and today alone, I will not
be takin g a drink. One step... one moment... one day at a time... is the
Tao in action.Become a master anticipator.
Decide that you’re perfectly capable of preventing trouble from cropping
up in your life long before it manifests into your material world. Anticipate
your own health, for instance. Become conscious of prevention  rather than
waiting for


 immediate transcutaneous penetration into the circulation. This fact alone placed DMSO in the exclusive club where small mol -
ecules (under 500 Da) can cross the integument and be considered in the possible realm of topical dermatotherapy. In later years, DMSO was tested intravenously and was shown to exert rapid and safe activity as a neuroprotective agent against various types of trauma in animals and humans.
With a team of collaborators, Jacob’s initial article and others that followed
described the effects of DMSO on pain, anti-inflammation, vasodilation, reduction of scar tissue, and antimicrobial activity, including its killing action against tubercu -
losis-resistant bacilli.
These findings have led to a steady cascade of scientific papers on both in vitro
and in vivo  systems that continue to the present time. Also, several dozen interna -
tional conferences have been held where investigators have reported the properties of DMSO on the biochemical, molecular, physiological, pharmacological, and medical systems linked to trauma and disease.
This book examines the major clinical uses of DMSO in humans as supported
by basic evidence derived from experiments in animals, including its effects as a powerful pain reliever, and in disorders such as osteoarthritis, interstitial cystitis, gastrointestinal inflammatory changes, scleroderma, respiratory distress, myasthe -
nia gravis, cardiac disease, traumatic brain injury, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, and spinal cord trauma.
In the case of DMSO, how does one categorize an agent with such a wide range of
biological and pharmacological activities? Can one small and simple molecule affect these medical conditions in a beneficial manner? And if so, what mechanisms are at play in these processes?
In order to explore the pharmacotherapeutic actions of DMSO on diverse medical
conditions, the book offers a critical analysis of the scientific research that examined DMSO’s action as a free radical scavenger; an anti-inflammatory, antipain, anticancer, xiv Introduction
cell membrane stabilizer; and aneuroprotective agent in preventing and treating
trauma and disease.
The ability of DMSO to act as a chemical chaperone and to enhance the penetra -
tion of an accompanying compound applied topically on the skin has opened the door to the field of drug delivery by percutaneous transport of selective molecules.
The book explores how the chemical structure of DMSO is able to react and deac -
tivate toxic molecules generated by DNA damage, free radical formation, inflam -
mation, infection, and tissue injury. Many toxic and potentially lethal molecules suppressed by DMSO include chemokines, interleukins, tumor necrosis factor, thromboxane, tissue factor, thrombin, and glutamate excitotoxicity.
Many of these toxic molecules appear as a secondary reaction to traumatic inju-
ries and countless of disorders to overwhelm the clinical picture and disease out -
come. For this reason, the biological actions and therapeutic usefulness of DMSO have been barely scratched on the surface despite thousands of articles indicating its clinical potential.
We hope this book will serve as a guide to explain the many facets of how DMSO
works and to open new doors in the search for better ways to help the ill and the suffering.
This book will be of interest to health-care workers, clinicians, basic scientists,
and health-conscious consumers who wish to know more about the biological diver -
sity and medical applications of DMSO.

1Chemistry of DMSO
CHEMICAL STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES OF DMSO
Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was first synthesized in 1866, and the finding was
reported a year later by the Russian organic chemist Alexander Saytzeff.1 Other
common names of DMSO are methyl sulfoxide and methylsulfinylmethane. A sulf -
oxide is a chemical compound containing a sulfinyl functional group  attached to two
carbon atoms. The DMSO molecule has a pyramidal structure containing sulfur, oxygen, and carbon atoms. The sulfur atom is in the center, while the two methyl groups, the oxygen atom, and a nonbonding electron pair are located at the corners (Figure 1.1). The sulfur atom serves as the positive dipole and activates the hydrogen atoms of the methyl groups making them weakly acidic and very resistant to removal in free radical reactions and allowing removal only by strongly basic reagents such as sodium hydride.
2
DMSO is produced as a by-product of wood pulping. Lignin, in the kraft pulping
liquor wastes, is a polymer of unknown structure and the principal source of DMSO. DMSO synthesis is derived from dimethyl sulfide, a by-product of the manufacture of paper.
Wood contains about 25%–30% lignin and sulfite waste liquors up to 6%.
3
DMSO is commercially made available in the United States by Gaylord Chemical Corporation, which also makes the highly pure grade of DMSO for drug delivery and health-care applications.
The principal impurity present in DMSO is water, and the purified solvent will
readily absorb water vapor if exposed to the atmosphere.
Solvents are classified as either polar or nonpolar, and the most common measure
of solvent polarity is the dielectric constant.
The sulfur–oxygen bond in DMSO is quite polar so that the liquid has a high
dielectric constant. This polarity and geometry lead to considerable organization in the liquid state in which DMSO molecules are associated into chains by dipole attraction.
3 Electrophiles are atoms, molecules, and ions that behave as electron
acceptors. Nucleophilic reagents such as DMSO behave as electron donors. The sul -
fur center in DMSO is nucleophilic toward soft electrophiles, which are molecules that readily accept electrons during a primary reaction step, while the oxygen is nucleophilic toward hard electrophiles, that is, electrons with a positive charge not easily delocalized.
4
Liquids with a high dielectric constant such as DMSO and water have a higher
solubility of substances when immersed in a medium. For that reason, the high dielectric constant of DMSO, which is higher than most organic liquids, makes it a uniquely universal solvent
2 (Table 1.1).2 Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) in Trauma and Disease
The presence of a liquid structure and association forces is reflected in a rather
high freezing point, a low entropy of fusion, a high boiling point, and a high entropy
of vaporization5 (Table 1.1). DMSO is one of the most exceptional and widely used
solvents in organic chemistry. It is miscible with water and readily soluble in almost all organic solvents such as alcohols, esters, ketones, chlorinated solvents, and aro -
matic hydrocarbons. DMSO has been used with thousands of organic compounds to determine the quantitative strength of an acid in solution (p K
a value).2
The versatility of DMSO both as a solvent and as a reagent is partly explained by
the dipolar nucleophilic characteristics of the molecule, which are due to the avail -
ability of free electron pairs at the oxygen or sulfur terminals. The reason is that these electrons may be shared or transferred to other protons.
6 It has been pointed
out by Szmant6 that although DMSO is not the hydrogen donor that water is, it is
superior to water in associations based on the induction of dipoles in aromatic rings and methylmercapto and disulfide bonds. This alteration in the configuration of immobile protein structures induced by DMSO exchanging sites with bound water molecules could explain the penetrant ability of DMSO through the skin of people and animals.
7
DMSO is an odorless, colorless, transparent, hygroscopic fluid over a wide
range of temperatures with a slightly bitter taste. It has a low level of toxicity, and this issue is discussed in detail in the “Teratology and LD
50” section in Chapter 2.
DMSO evaporates slowly at normal atmospheric pressure due to its high boiling point (189°C). At its boiling point, DMSO can decompose and has the risk of explosion. TABLE 1.1

One	Saturday	after	our	excursion	to	Pizza	Hut,	the	mall,	and	a	movie,	I	drove
my	ten-year-old	goddaughter	Samantha	to	her	family’s	new	residence.	As	we
turned	off	the	highway	onto	a	dirt	road	that	led	to	her	house,	my	heart
dropped	to	see	that	she	and	her	parents	were	living	in	an	old	school	bus	in	a
field.
As	Samantha	showed	me	around	her	family’s	quarters,	I	began	to	feel	sad	that
this	little	girl	whom	I	love	so	much	was	growing	up	in	such	a	shoddy
environment.	As	my	eyes	painfully	fell	upon	rusted	seams	on	the	metal	walls,
cracked	windows,	and	a	leaking	roof,	I	realized	that	her	family	had	fallen	into
bare,	subsistence	living.	I	wanted	to	rescue	her	from	such	a	barren	plight.
Looking	up	at	me	with	her	big	brown	eyes,	Samantha	asked	me,	“Would	you
like	to	see	my	room?”
“Okay,”	I	answered	hesitantly.
The	child	took	me	by	the	hand	and	guided	me	up	a	makeshift	staircase	that
led	to	a	small	wooden	addition	that	had	been	superimposed	over	the	roof	of
the	bus.	I	shuddered	to	observe	that	her	room	was	in	the	same	condition	as	the
rest	of	the	place,	just	barely	livable.	Looking	around,	I	noticed	one	fairly
attractive	element	of	her	abode,	a	colorful	tapestry	hanging	over	the	one
section	of	the	room	that	could	be	called	a	wall.“How	do	you	feel	about	living	here?”	I	asked	Samantha,	waiting	for	a	glum
response.
Instead,	to	my	surprise,	her	face	lit	up.	“I	love	my	wall!”	she	giggled.
I	was	stunned.	Samantha	was	not	kidding.	She	actually	enjoyed	the	place
because	of	this	colorful	wall.	The	child	found	a	touch	of	heaven	in	the	midst
of	hell,	and	this	is	what	she	chose	to	focus	on.	She	was	happy.
I	drove	home	in	a	state	of	awe.	This	ten-year-old	saw	her	life	through	the	eyes
of	appreciation,	and	that	made	all	the	difference.	I	began	to	consider	all	the
things	in	my	life	that	I	have	complained	about.	I	realized	that	in	my
preoccupation	with	what	isn’t	there,	I	have	been	missing	what
is
	here.	While
focusing	on	rusty	metal,	I	have	overlooked	some	colorful	tapestries.	I	made
Samantha’s	statement	my	meditation:	“I	love	my	wall!”
Gratitude	is	not	the	result	of	things	that	happen	to	us;	it	is	an	attitude	we
cultivate	by	practice.	The	more	we	are	thankful	for,	the	more	we	will	find	to
be	thankful	for.	I	heard	of	a	woman	named	Sarah	who	lay	in	a	hospital	bed
after	an	accident,	deeply	depressed,	unable	to	move	any	part	of	her	body
except	the	little	finger	on	one	hand.	Then	Sarah	decided	she	would	make	use
of	what	she
did
	have	rather	than	bemoan	what	she	was	missing.	She	began	to
bless	the	one	finger	that	could	move,	and	she	developed	a	system	of	“yes”	and
“no”	communication	with	the	little	finger.	Sarah	became	grateful	that	she
could	communicate,	and	she	felt	happier.	As	she	blessed	the	movement,	her
flexibility	increased.	Soon	Sarah	could	move	her	hand,	then	her	arm,	and
eventually	her	whole	body.	It	all	started	with	the	critical	shift	from
complaining	to	blessing.

Getting	the	Love	You	Want
	has	become	a	popular
manual	for	relationships.	The	first	step	to	getting	the	love	you	want	is	to
appreciate	the	love	you	have.	The	universe	always	gives	you	more	of	what	you
are	focusing	on.
	Jesus	taught,
“To	him	that	hath,	more	shall	be	given;	to	him
that	hath	not,	more	shall	be	taken	away.”
	Jesus	was	elucidating	a	supremely
important	metaphysical	principle,	the	very	key	to	the	manifestation	of
abundance.	Jesus	was	teaching	the	importance	of	concentrating	on	what	we
have	or	want,	rather	than	on	what	we	lack	or	do	not	want.
We	can	look	at	any	experience	in	two	ways:	through	the	eyes	of	lack,	or	the
eyes	of	plenty.Fear	sees	limits,	while	love	sees	possibilities.	Each	attitude	will	be	justified
by	the	belief	system	you	cherish.	Change	your	allegiance	from	fear	to	love,
and	love	will	sustain	you	wherever	you	walk.
A	Course	in	Miracles
	tells	us,
“Love	cannot	be	far	behind	a	grateful	heart	and	thankful	mind	…These	are
the	true	conditions	for	your	homecoming.”

 in your diet, it should not be eaten more
than 2 times a week. In our opinion, fresh fish can be
the least toxic of the flesh proteins. But beware of fish
from polluted waters. They can be loaded with mer cury,
lead, cadmium, DDT and many other toxic substances.
If you are unable to test the waters from where your fish
come, don’ t risk eating them. And avoid shellfish –
shrimp, lobster and crayfish. They are garbage-eating
bottom-feeders – the rats and flies of the water kingdom.
They eat all of the rotting, decaying scum and refuse off
the bottoms of the oceans, lakes and rivers. Next come
chicken and turkey – but never eat the skin, which is
heavy in cholesterol. Third place goes to lamb and beef.
People should not eat pork or pork products. The
pig is the only animal besides man that develops
arteriosclerosis or hardening of the arteries. In fact, this
animal is so loaded with cholester ol that in cold weather,
unprotected pigs and hogs will become solid and stiff,
as though frozen solid. Also, this animal is often infected
with a dangerous parasite which causes trichinosis.
We enjoy being vegetarians and not polluting our
bodies with unhealthy, meat, fowl and fish proteins. W e
feel it’ s safer and healthier getting our pr oteins from
organic vegetables, beans, legumes, nuts, seeds, etc.
It’s magnificent to live long if one keeps healthy and fit. – Harry Fosdick %Excerpt from Bragg Vegetarian Recipe Book. Copy page and share with family, friends, etc.
