. 396 THE  "I AM99  DISCOURSES
When  destructive  people  are caught  and  the end  of their
destructive  activity  has arrived,  their  whole  Life  and  atten-
tion seek  the Understanding  of Life!
You have  no idea,  My  Beloved  Ones,  what  THESE
BOOKS  mean  to humanity  today.  Remember  the  tran-
scriptions  and  the broadcasts,  call  people'*  attention  to the
Presence  of Life,  the "Mighty  I AM  Presence,"  and  to This
Mighty  Teaching;  but the Magazine  is the next  step  which
should  reach  those  people  in preparation  for the Explana-
tion of the Light  in the Books.
As all of you  read  and  study,  if there  is no other  way,
hand  those  Magazines  after  you  have  read  them,  to others
to read,  thus  calling  attention  to them.  You  will  render  a
Service  to yourself  and  your  America  which  will  transcend
anything  so far. It is quite  easy  to do this.  It requires  no
expense  on your  part,  except  your  subscription  to the Mag-
azine  and  the means  of handing  it out;  but it is necessary.
That  is why  I want  you,  if you  will,  to render  This  Service
to America.  I say to every  one of you  who  is very  earnest  and
sincere,  YOUR  COMPLETE  FINANCIAL  RELEASE  IS
COMING!  Stand  unyielding  and  firm  in your  Call  and  it
must  appear!  Please  do not let your  attention  be fixed  upon
the conditions,  which  exist  in the outer  world;  because  if
you do, thru  your  feeling,  you  will  continue  to deprive  your-
selves ! The  conditions  which  exist  in the rest  of the world,
have  nothing  to do with  your  INDIVIDUAL  SUPPLY,
called  forth  from  your  Presence!  Now  please  understand
that,  every  one of you  Blessed  Students. DISCOURSE  XXIII  397
There  are a great  many  still  who  find  themselves  think-
ing: "Well  how  can  I accept  my  limitless  supply,  when
such  outer  conditions  are existing  in the world"!  It has not
a thing  to do with  you;  but as long  as you  insist  on holding
that attitude,  you  will  experience  the same  thing,  the rest of
the world  does.  That  is not necessary  in This  Great  Law!
You are talking  to the Presence  and  Power  of Life,  which
governs  all in This  World!  Then,  why  should  you  pay  at-
tention  to the conditions  which  mankind  has  created  for
and around  the outer  self.  Now  you  are stepping  out of that;
and it no longer  belongs  to you,  nor is it a part  of you!  If
you see this,  you  will  step  out of it; and  you  will  step  into
the Freedom  which  I am describing  to you!
Today,  in This  Heart  to Heart  talk,  I want  you  to realize
every  Word  is a Power  of Light,  which  has gone  into  action
in your  feeling  world.  If you  will  recall  what  I have  said
to you,  then  you  will  keep  yourselves  firmly  reminded,  so
you do not yield  to outer  things.  You  will  not yield  again
to the appearance  world  which  has been  depriving  you.  See
the number  who  are in this  auditorium  today!  Would  you
believe  Me,  when  I tell you  that  your  attention  upon  the
appearance  world,  has been  largely  the means  of depriving
you of the things  for which  you  are calling ? Sometimes  in
your  feeling  world,  you  were  still  accepting  the conditions,
which  existed  in the appearance  world  of limitations.  Then
of course  you  could  not have  the Fulness  of the Release  for
which  you  were  even  calling.  There  are many  who  would
have  had  their  Release  to a large  degree,  even  without  call-398 THE  "I AM99  DISCOURSES
ing; if they  had  not kept  their  attention  fixed  upon  the ap-
pearance  world,  which  is but limitation!
BELOVED  STUDENTS,  WHETHER  YOU  ARE
MASCULINE  OR  FEMININE—WHEN  YOU  FIND
POLITICIANS—WHEN  YOU  FIND  INDIVIDUALS
IN OFFICIAL  PLACES,  WHO  SEEM  TO  BE DOING
WRONG,  DON'T  LET  YOURSELVES  BECOME
ANGERED,  IRRITABLE  OR  CONDEMNATORY
TOWARD  THEIR  PERSONALITY!  IT IS A QUAL-
ITY ACTING!  IF  YOU  BECOME  CONDEMNA-
TORY,  YOU  ARE  GOING  TO  DRAW  THAT  SAME
QUALITY  WHICH  YOUR  ATTENTION  IS ON,
INTO  YOUR  WORLD.  YOU  CANNOT  AFFORD
TO DO  IT AT  THIS  POINT!  I SAY  TO  YOU  EAR-
NESTLY  AND  SINCERELY,  YOU  CANNOT  AF-
FORD  TO  DO  THIS!  YOU  ARE  AT  A POINT  NOW,
WHERE  YOU  ARE  GOING  FORWARD  QUICKLY
TO YOUR  FREEDOM,  IF YOU  WILL  DO  THESE
THINGS  I ASK;  BUT  YOU  CANNOT  AFFORD  TO
DO DESTRUCTIVE  THINGS!
You see when  mankind  does  not know  the necessity  of
Self-control,  then  automatically,  the  Life  Stream  will  do
certain  things  for you;  but  when  you  come  into  the Con-
scious  Knowledge  and  Application  of Life,  you  must  give
obedience;  and  make  the  Application  which  holds  the
Balance  of these  conditions.  The  Responsibility  is yours.  Of
course,  THERE  MUST  BE  YOUR  OBEDIENCE  TO
LIFE.  These  are important  things  to hold  before  your  at-
tention. DISCOURSE  XXIII  399
As the Messenger  said  to you,  it is so—shall  I use  the
expression  "extremely  ridiculous"—when  one  understands,
what  the attention  does,  in feeding  the  Gift  of Life  into
conditions  which  limit  or harm  that  one.  Don't  you  see
how  pitiful  it is! You  can  control  your  attention!  There
is not one  of you  who  cannot  do it; but  if you  insist  on
feeding  your  Life  into  discordant  appearances,  limiting  ap-
pearances;  and  accepting  there  is a power  of human  crea-
tion to make  you  ill or distressed,  then  how  can We prevent
it! Your  Free  Will  is paramount,  since  you  are not destruc-
tive Individuals!  We  cannot  interfere  with  that.  With  your
obedience,  We can do wonders  beyond  your  fondest  hopes;
but We must  have  a certain  amount  of obedience  to the Law
of your  Life,  in order  to do so. Obedience  to the Law  of Life
is your  Freedom!
Therefore,  I ask  you  for your  own  progress,  to please
watch  these  simple  things  in your  Life  Activity;  so you
do keep  your  attention  flowing  to Constructive  Things!
Then,  as Our  Great  Out-pouring  intensifies,  you  will  not
find yourselves  at intervals,  in a struggle  against  things  to
which  you  have  given  power.
There  is another  point  which  I want  to bring  to your
attention  with  Almighty  Power!  A few  of you  have  been

OceanofPDF.comTCHAPTER SEVENTEEN
IS NASAL BREATHING YOUR FIRST LINE OF
DEFENSE AGAINST CORONAVIRUS?
hroughout this book we have examined the importance of nasal
breathing. In the case of respiratory infections, research indicates
that where facemasks fail, the nose may provide a natural filter for
dangerous patho gens. We know that the nose filters, warms and humidifies
air on its way into the body, where mouth breathing does not. But as we
discussed in Chapters Three  and Ten, it may also help protect you from a
high viral load and the severe form of COVID-19. Let’s look at the research
in more detail.
COVID-19 is a new disease. Little direct research is currently available
about its development, although knowledge is growing every day. However,
studies that have been published on similar illnesses may be significant.
One key paper from 2005, shortly after the outbreak of SARS (severe acute
respiratory syndrome coronavirus) reported that nitric oxide inhibits the
replication cycle of the virus. Although the total number of deaths relating
to COVI D-19 has far exceeded those recorded during the 2002–2003 SARS
epidemic, the current mortality rate is still much lower than that of SARS,
which killed 9.6% of those infected.1
Many people have asked why coronavirus is considered to be so much
more serious than the annual outbreak of influenza. In simple terms,
COVID-19 behaves very differently from flu and is much less well
understood. It has a very high viral load, and where flu results in a crippled
immune system, this new virus attacks a very specific type of cell called a
type 2 pneumocyte.2,3Type 2 pneumoc ytes are responsible for the production and secretion of
a molecule called surfactant, which reduces the surface tension of fluid in
the lungs and contributes to the elastic properties of the alveoli. It facilitates
oxygen transport to the blood and prevents lung collapse and edema. Now
imagine this function is comprom ised and it is easy why coronavirus can be
deadly for even a young, health y person, and why it can cause damage to
organs including the heart.
In laboratory tests using Vero E6 cells, the authors of the 2005 study
found that nitric oxide has an antiviral effect, specifically inhibiting the
replication of the virus during early stages of infection. Their research
showed that NO inhibits viral protein and RNA synthesis—essential stages
of viral reproduction in SARS.4
Nitric oxide (NO) is produced in the paranasal sinuses. This means that
by breathing through the nose, we harness various properties of NO
including its pathogen-killing power. NO is understood to be a vasodilator
—it plays a role in the dilation of the blood vessels in the lungs so that
oxygen can be properly absorb ed from the air. But according  to a 1999
paper by scientists Lundber g and Weitzber g5, another biological function of
nitric oxide is the ef fect it has on the growth of various pathogens, including
viruses. What this tells us is that nitric oxide in the nasal airways could
represent an important first line of defense against infection. The existence
of nitric  oxide in exhaled air was first discovered in 1991.5 Later studies
clearly demonstrated that almo st all of this NO originates in the upper
airways, with only minor input from the lower respiratory tract and lungs.
Nitric oxide (NO) has also been proven to be important for its role in
surfactant production.6,7 It controls production of surfactants by the alveolar
cells and preserves surfactant function.
A paper  published in 2009 by the scientists responsible for the research
into the SARS virus, states that: “NO is involved in local host defense in the
upper airways.”8 The research, which also used isolated laboratory cells,
suggests that while it is unclear whether NO acts directly on
microor ganisms or if it works in combination with other components to
produce its toxic impact, it may help keep the sinuses sterile. Interestingly,
the study found that NO inhibits the replication of SARS in two distinct
ways.8Research from 1999 and 2000 found NO has “opposing effects” in viral
infections, inclu ding flu and pneumonia, and it inhibits the replication of a
variety of viruses. And research into the human rhinovirus (HRV), the
primary cause of the common cold, concluded that humans actually produce
more nitric oxide in response to HR V infection, theorizing that the gas plays
a key role in viral clearance.
Without the regular inhalation and exhalation through the nostrils, nitric
oxide in the nasal airways goes unused. Therefore, the simp lest way to
naturally increase NO is by nostril breathing. However, as we discovered in
Chapter Three, evidenc e suggests that humming is effective in emptying the
paranasal sinuses of accumulated NO, leading to far greater production of
the gas.9
Much of the worry around coronavirus stems from uncertainty.
However, what is certain is that large amounts of nitric oxide are constantly
being released in the airways during nasal breathing, and that this gas has
been found to have important antiviral functions that defend against the
replication of flu-like illnesses. The mechanism of COVID-19 is still
unknown, and it would be cavalier to state that nasal breathing will kill the
virus. However, it has been consistently proven that nasal breath ing leads to
better overall health, and it makes logical sense, given that the primary
defense to airborne viruses is in the nose and not the mouth, that breathing
through the nose can support the body’ s natural resistance to infection.
HOW DOES THE VIRUS SPREAD?
Just like other respiratory infecti ons, the virus travels from person to person
in drople ts of bodily fluid such as mucus or saliva. When an infected person
sneezes or coughs, the virus disperses into the air and onto surrounding
surfaces. Drople ts from coughs and sneezes can travel several feet and stay
suspended in the air for up to 10 minutes, increasing the likelihood of
infection for anyone who come s into direct contact with a sick person or
touches a contaminated surface.
The biggest issue here is that because COVID-19 is a brand new virus
in humans, no one has any immunity to it, and this increases both the fear
factor and the potential for infection. However, Bruce Ayleward, assistantdirector general of the WHO explains that: “Panic and hysteria are not
appropriate.” “This is a disease that is in the cases and their close contacts,”
he says. “It’s not a hidden enem y lurking behind bushes. Get organized, get
educated, and get working.”10
PREVENTIVE MEASURES
Much of the advice around coronavirus focuses on hygiene practices such
as frequent and thorough handwashing, self-isolating and catching sneezes
in the crook of the elbow. The use of face masks has become synonymous
with outbreaks of this type, and masks are now an accepted defense against
spreading Covid-19. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) recommends
that people wear masks in public settings, at events and gatherings, and
anywhere they will be around other people. When you wear a mask, you
protect others as well as yourself, but masks are not without controversy.
Toward the end of April 2020, social media users began sharing images
online, claiming that continuous  use of a mask forces the weare r to breathe
in excess carbon dioxide (CO 2) from exhaled air, causing hypercapnia.
Hypercapnia is the buildup of CO2 in the bloodstream, and it’s common in
conditions such as COPD. It can lead to dizziness, fatigue, headaches,
breathlessness, drowsiness, and disorientation. More severe symptoms
include loss of consciousness, seizures, and coma.
While it can be dangerous to breathe in high levels of CO2, the claim is
inaccurate. It’s true that medical  masks have been found to cause headaches
in healthcare workers who wear them for a long time, but there is no
evidence that these masks are dangerous.
According to Reuters, a representative from the CDC explains: “The
CO2 will slowly build up in the mask over time. However, the level of CO2
likely to build up in the mask is mostly tolerable to people exposed to it.
You might get a headache but you most likely [would] not suffer the
symptoms obser ved at much higher levels of CO2. The mask


 the same cowardly
accusations were made against the mother, by the doctors. She
willingly underwent a medical examination and it was found thatshe was normal and healthy, with no syphilitic taint. The
examiner stated:
"I do not think there is any reason whatever to suspect that she
has ever suffered from syphilis. I find no indication of such
disease."
Some of the doctors at the inquest persisted in their morbid
character defamation charges against the mother and refused to
believe the medical report that gave her a clean bill of health. On
the strength of their own opinions they insisted that she was
syphilitic and would not be able to give birth to another normal
baby.
To prove that the accusations of the doctors were unjustified she
had the following photograph taken after the birth of her next
child, Frederick John, who was 10 weeks old at the time his was
taken. It is apparent that the child is well and healthy—and
unvaccinated. The fathers (in England) who refused to have their
children serve prison terms under compulsory vaccination but
many of them accepted this punishment in order to save their
children from the deadly effects of vaccination.
  Rita and Eberhard Kandlbinder, died on June, 1951, as a result
of vaccination.
The Munchner Illustrierte, June 28, 1951, reported the
"mysterious death of six infants after smallpox vaccinations."
After the photographs and story of these deaths occurred many
other parents came forth with similar stories, although the
doctors had named some other cause for the deaths. Most of
the vaccination deaths are unknown because they are
unreported as such (see the chapter on Falsified Death
Certificates, Book II).
BLINDNESS FROM V ACCINATION
  "Horace Capewell of 5 Court St., Southbridge, England, was a fine
healthy baby with beautiful eyes. He was vaccinated when five
weeks old. Nine days later his body was a mass of sores. His eyes
became affected and at the age of five months he was totally blind
Many doctors at Birmingham had the case under treatment but
nothing could restore his sight This was taken many years later at
the age of 20 years.

Photostat of death certificate of victim of vaccination.There is no doctor or test that can predict whether or not vaccination will bring death,
disability or the potentialities of future disease. Is the risk worth the dubious promise of
immunity?
INFLAMATION OF THE BRAIN FROM V ACCINATION
  These beautiful, healthy twins, Peter and Portia Furness, aged 4½
years died two weeks after being vaccinated with certified
government vaccine The deaths took place May, 1931 at South
Wigston, near Leicester, England. This is one of the few cases in
which the doctors admitted the real cause of death on the death
certificate as being post-vaccinal encephalitis.
V ACCINATION TRAGEDY
  Margaret Ann, the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Donald W.
Gooding, of Wolsey, Essex, England, was pronounced a perfect baby
by the doctor when she was born. This beautiful and healthy infant
was vaccinated at the age of 4 months. The first two injections didn’t
take so a third vaccination was given, after which inflammation of
the brain developed within 5 days. She was taken to the hospital
where she remained for many weeks. At the age of 13 months she
was blind and could not learn to walk. She also developed digestive
disturbances and convulsions.
This tragic case was brought to the attention of the House of
Commons in the hope that an investigation would be made of the
hazards of vaccination and others would be warned of the danger. Mr.
Bevan was shown the possibility of other similar results if the same
practice was continued and he was asked if he would make the result
of his inquiry fully available to the House of Commons and the
public.
If he ever made an honest investigation it would result in an unqualified condemnation
of vaccination. This he did not do so far as I have been able to find out.
BLINDNESS FROM V ACCINATION

This child was a healthy, normal child at birth. When she was a
year and a half old she was vaccinated, after which her eyes began
to exude matter and within a week they closed and she has been
blind ever since. Dr. Blasson, Dr. Kynaston and the famous
specialist, Dr. Bell Taylor, all examined the child and
acknowledged that the blindness was due to vaccination.
Because the father defied the vaccination law and refused to have
his other child vaccinated he was to be prosecuted. He carried his
blind child into the court room and showed her eyes and her arm
which was enlarged, deformed and sore from the shoulder to the
finger tips. The evidence and the public sentiment against the
vaccination law influenced the magistrates to exempt the father from having his other child vaccinated.
INFANTILE PARALYSIS FROM V ACCINATION
  John James MacDonald was well and normal when vaccinated. After
a time his vaccinated arm withered and drew up until it was useless.
Then his right leg became emaciated and so drawn up that he could
no longer walk. The vaccination refused to heal and in addition to
that, a festering sore developed on his foot.
WRITER PARALYZED BY V ACCINATION
  Job West of Bradford-On-Avon was vaccinated as a boy and
partially paralyzed soon after the injection. For many years he
lost the power of voluntary movement of the lower limbs. In
spite of his handicap and suffering he became a renowned
"student and authority on the vaccination question, and a most
prolific writer on the subject."
SLOW DEATH THROUGH V ACCINATION
  Elsie Thuroff was born March 3, 1920 and vaccinated
June 8, 1921. In August of the same year she began
suffering from "violent grinding pains, and swelling and
distortion of the bones of her arm up to her shoulder. The
medical diagnosis was tuberculosis of the bones. She
underwent an operation after which the condition grew
steadily worse until her arm drew up and became
helpless.  The skin of the face burned away. The
vaccination marks suppurated and the body wasted away
to a living skeleton.   "After suffering excruciating pain
she died on the 8th of January, 1923."
DOCTORS WARNED NOT TO V ACCINATE ECZEMA CASES
  This six year old boy died of generalized vaccinia. He
had been subject to eczema since the age of six weeks.
Since eczema is a condition of extreme toxemia (acidosis
or internal poisoning) the poison from the vaccine serum
intensified the body poisoning and he died September
1949.
In March 1953, Dr. George Taylor of Bradford vaccinated his five-months’ old daughter
who was suffering from a mild case of eczema and the baby died nine days later of
generalized vaccinia and eczema. The doctors are beginning to see the seriousness of
poisoning the already poisoned sick with more poison in the form of vaccine serums.
USELESS ARM FROM V ACCINE POISONING

William Hamilton  was vaccinated at three
months of age. The poison spread and the
sores never healed. The case was attended
by six doctors but they gave it up as a
hopeless case. His arm has been useless
since the vaccination in infancy, The photowas taken when he was 15 years of age.
V ACCINATION CAUSES MISCARRIAGE
A careful check showed that "47 per cent of women who had been vaccinated in the
second or third month of pregnancy, failed to give birth to a normal child." (p. 47,
"Vaccination at Work)"
The Consulting Pediatrician of Lanarkshire County Council in an article in The Lancet
(London) December 6, 1952 reported one of the typical cases of this survey. This
woman was about three months pregnant when she was vaccinated for smallpox. The
report states: "She developed a severe primary reaction and three months later she was
spontaneously delivered of a feeble hydropic premature infant covered with a very
severe generalized vaccinia. The child died 18 hours after birth."
Many of the new strange diseases of modern times can be traced to vaccination or
medication of the child or the mother.
V ACCINATION DEATHS NOT REPORTED
Because some of the photographs of cases shown in the preceding pages have been
collected from other countries as well as United States and some of the deaths occurred
a number of years ago, some may wonder if vaccination deaths are so rare that these
must be used. Although photographs are not often made of vaccination victims there are,
nevertheless, an unbelievable number of such cases that are hushed up and the death
certificate often gives some other cause. The medically staffed health departments rarely
make inquiry regarding these cases and, unfortunately, there are very few courageous
and public spirited people or organizations who are willing to spend the time and money
to make such an investigation. However, just to show how much can be uncovered with
a little effort I am presenting a  partial list of the vaccination  deaths that were traced
down by just one man, V. E. Rowton, in just one year, 1921, in just one medium-sized
city, Denver, Colorado.


beduetoacquired wisdom, asinthecase ofhumans who store foods during plenitude
in preparation for the season of scarcity.
The body is always provident. All providence exhibits wisdom.
Reproduction ofkind isprovidence. Itisprovision thatthespecies shall survive. The
complexities ofreproductive provisions defy human inquiry andintellect intheir pro-
fundity and detail.
Nutrition andelimination areprovisions insuring thattheorganism survives. Like-
wise, thecomplexities andsubtleties ofthese many provisions defy human inquiry and
intellect, though compliance is easily accomplished.
Theimmensity ofthewisdom exhibited inallthings sostaggers thehuman intellect
thatmany often retreat intothecomfort ofsome all-encompassing outlook thatrelieves
them of the burden of inquiry, assessment and understanding.
Asstudents ofthiscourse, youareundertaking todelve intolife’sprovisions suffi-
ciently toascertain avalid course foruplifting yourself andfellow beings totheutter-
most possibilities.
Wisdom isreally adifficult word toassess anddefine. Itcanbesaidtobeall-know-
ingandall-understanding within agiven sphere. Wisdom isatonce thecomprehension
ofamatter inboth depth andbreadth andanexpertise ormastery thatenables thepos-
sessor to pursue a correct course of action.
Inpursuing thisstudy,wemust notconfuse inherent wisdom orintelligence with in-
tellect andacquired wisdom. Theability tothink isaproperty oftheconscious intellect.
Itinvolves wisdom andintelligence ofadifferent order than thewisdom which isthe
subject of this lesson.
While there arebooks onbody wisdom anditsinherent programming, these books
have little substance. This sphere ofourexistence islittle explored, though themecha-
nisms ofinherent wisdom have been charted extensively.What wecandohere isto,by
observation and deduction, invoke your realization of the colossal wisdom of the body.
Body wisdom comprises themultitude offaculties within thebody thatrecognize,
communicate andeffectively respond. Forexample, ifyoubiteintoaluscious apple, the
whole system iscoursed with delight. Ifyoubiteinto anapple thathasbeen injected
with asolution ofcaustic soda, you’ll immediately recognize thedanger,begin spitting
andsputtering andrunforwater todilute andremove thedeadly poison thatcontacted
your mouth tissues. Rejection oftoxic matters isjustasnatural asdelighting inbenefi-
cent materials and influences.
6.1.1 Cell Wisdom and Providence
Thewisdom ofasingle cellissaid toexceed alltheaccumulated knowledge ofthe
human race sofar!Each cellis,quite literally,acityinitself. Itisaself-contained organ-
ism. Themembrane islikethewall around agreat city.Within arenumerous inhabitants,
many ofthem enjoying anexistence within thecellontheorder asthecellenjoys within
thebody.These forms oflife,called mitochondria, have independent metabolic systems
andcanthusly besaid tooperate symbiotically with thecellandinconcert with each
other.Allthecomponents ofacellactfortheir mutual welfare andforthewelfare ofthe
cell as the host or ganism.Ifwemarvel attheextensivness andcomplexity ofthecell, then wemust beeven
more astonished with thehuman body.Thehuman body issaid topossess 125trillion
cells, give ortake afewtrillion. (Some texts saythere are75trillion andothers saythere
are as many as 300 trillion cells in the human body.)
Tosaythatthecellisaself-contained cityinitself isnoexaggeration. Cells vary in
sizefrom midgets togiants. Buteven thesmallest cellisabout onebillion times thesize
ofitssmallest component! There arethousands oforganelles within each cell. These are
thecell’slifesupport system. Among these organelles aremitochondria which appear to
beanindependent form oflifewithin thecellular context. Mitochondria areanalogous
to, or like, bacteria in their or ganization and functions.
Acellseems tobeacityofspecialized bacteria united intoanorganic unittomain-
tain a favorable environment and to more ef fectively secure the needs of existence.
Additional toitsmitochondria, acellhasmany organelles (functioning systems with-
intheir own membranes) thatcomplement themitochondria inmaking thecellular or-
ganism self-suf ficient initsoperations. Thus thecell, likethehuman body,requires only
thatitsneeds besupplied within thecontext ofafavorable environment. Justashumans
strive tocreate favorable environments forthemselves, cells have long since ordered
their environment byorganizing intoasuper cityknown asabody.Thehuman body can
be said to be the super city.
Thewisdom manifested inthefaculties, organization andoperations ofasingle cell
stun theintellect. Byobservation wemust admit thatitisthere andregard itwith respect,
even if we do not know or understand it.
6.1.2 Multicellular Intelligence and Intercellular Relationships
Ifwisdom characterizes theseemingly infinite faculties ofthecell, then think ofthe
wisdom thatunites ahundred trillion ofthem intoanorganism! Think how great must
be the wisdom that guides the destiny of each and every cell within the body complex.
Cells areorganisms within themselves. They contain mitochondria which have the
characteristics thatwould earn them theascription ofanorganism, too! Thus, ifthehu-
man body contains over ahundred trillion cells, andeach cellcontains acomplement
ofmitochondria, then there must, inreality,beseveral quadrillion organisms within the
human body.Ifacellisacolony ofsophisicated bacteria thathave banded together for
their mutual welfare, then thebody may besaidtobemade upofsophisticated cells that
have banded together for their mutual welfare.
Cells have allied themselves within aunitwecallanorganism tospecialize infunc-
tions incomplementary coordination formutual good. Ifwehypothesize thatbacteria
have confederated andspecialized incarrying onthefunctions thatmake thecellaself-
contained functioning organism, then cells have likewise affiliated andspecialized to
better create an ideal environment and to secure the needs of life.
Ifweobserve thelifecycle ofatree, wemust marvel atitstremendous intelligence.
From anacorn thatsprouts andslowly grows over theyears intoastately oak, wesee
theunfolding ofanintelligence thatisbeyond ourknowledge andunderstanding. With-
inthegenetic encoding ofeach andevery celloftheacorn andtheresulting treeisthe
knowledge, understanding andoperational expertise tosecure needs from environment,
tofashion them precisely intoitsspecific requirements, toutilize them andtoeliminate
the wastes.
Inmaking alliances with other cells, asupra-cell coordinator iscreated tocoordinate
theactivities ofthecells. This iscalled thenervous system orbrain inmulticellular or-
ganisms.6.1.3 Ascertaining the Intelligence of Physical Phenomena
What kind ofintelligence does itrequire forthebody torecognize food andsecrete
thecorrect enzymes foritsdigestion? What kind ofintelligence isrequired tocreate the
enzymes?
When westart asking questions exhaustively,webegin todiscover theimmeasurable
wisdom and providence of every faculty of life.
Below isanexcerpt from aphysiology text. Itisquoted merely tohighlight certain
body processes sothatwemight divine some ofthebody faculties andtheintelligence
they exhibit:
Often tissues ofthebody regresstoamuch smaller sizethan previously.For
instance, thisoccurs intheuterus following pregnancy,inmuscles during long pe-
riods ofinactivity andinmammary glands attheendoftheperiod oflactation.
Lysosomes areprobably responsible formuch ifnotmost ofthisregression, forone
canshow thatthelysosomes become very active atthistime. However,themecha-
nism bywhich thelack ofactivity inatissue causes thelysosomes toincrease their
activity is completely unknown.
Another very special roleofthelysosomes istheremoval ofdamaged cells or
damaged portions ofcells fromtissues-cells damaged byheat, cold, trauma, chemi-
calsoranyother factor.Damage tothecellcauses lysosomes toruptur e,andthere-
leased hydrolases begin immediately todigest thesurrounding organic substances.
Ifthedamage isslight, only aportion ofthecellwillberemoved, followed byrepair
ofthecell. However,ifthedamage issever e,theentirecellwill bedigested, a
process called autolysis. Inthisway thecelliscompletely removed andanew cell
ofthesame type ordinarily isformed bymitotic reproduction ofanadjacent cellto
take the place of the old one.
What thisreally means isthatbody parts notinservice atrophy andthatitisbelieved
thatlysosomes areresponsible forregression oratrophy.But, whether ornotwedivine
thewisdom of


plants, thelegumes, thegrains, certain fruits such ascucumbers,
squash, pumpkins, tomatoes, eggplants andpeppers areregarded asvegetables though
technically they are not.
Notallfruits meet theproper criteria asfood forhumans. Nuts andavocados are
suitable asfood butwecould notsustain ourselves onthem whereas wecansustain our-
selves indefinitely ongrapes, bananas, oranges, figs, dates andmany other fruits. We’d
never make itonfruits such ascucumbers, tomatoes, eggplants, peppers andsquash any
more so than we can make it on cabbage or celery.
Agood indication ofwhat ournatural foods arecanbedetermined bythenatural
preferences ofachild thathasbeen fednothing butitsmother ’smilk. Does itlikecereals
orbananas? Apples orcabbage? What willachild goforiflettochoose itsown food? In
myexperience such achild always haschosen fruits. When served vegetables, mychild
found them a chore to eat, though he ate them to some extent.
Wehave considered vegetables andfruits based onaesthetic appeal andfuelrequire-
ments. There areother touchstones forconsideration which weshall now explore. Hu-
mans areclassed asfrugivora orfrugivores orfruit eaters because oftheir anatomy,their primate character,their digestive faculties, their psychological disposition andtheir
background innature. Research hasshown thatwehadanarboreal past—that wewere
once treedwellers. Atthattime wedepended upon theproducts oftree, andlater upon
the fruits of stalk and vine, for our sustenance.
Forexample, Dr.Alan Walker,ananthropologist ofJohns Hopkins University in
Maryland, hasdone research thatshows thathumans were once exclusively fruit eaters.
Bycareful examination offossil teeth andfossilized remains ofhumans with theaidof
electron microscopes andother sophisticated tools, Dr.Walker andother researchers are
absolutely certain thatourancestors, uptoapoint inrelatively recent history,were total
fruitarians. These findings were reported indepth intheMay 15,1979 issue oftheNew
York T imes.
These findings complement other findings andverify theconsistent scientific classi-
fication of humans as frugivora.
Creatures thatliveinaccord with their biological heritage donotdevelop disease.
They liveouttheir normal lifespans anddienatural deaths. Humans have byandlarge
strayed from their natural dietary andforthatreason sufferdisease andearly death. Hu-
mans who undertake tolive ontheir natural dietary andobserve other modalities of
healthful living alsoliveunto aripeoldageanddieanatural death. Although itisarar-
ity,people who touch base with life’srequisites have lived well past100. InHunza such
a lifespan is a rule rather than the exception, even though their dietary is far from ideal.
Green leaves andstalks contain agreater concentration ofvitamins, minerals and
other nutrients than fruits. Butthey also contain, inmost cases, compounds wecannot
handle well. Lettuce contains minute amounts ofapoison called lactucarium, which isa
soporific. Itiscontained inamilk-like substance, justasinthepoppy.Largeamounts of
lactucarium can be gathered and converted to substances resembling opium and heroin.
Celery hasbitter properties intheleaves which make them repulsive tothenormal
palate. Anything thatdisagrees with ourtaste buds has,ipso facto, been rejected atthat
point. That isnottosay,ontheother side oftheledger,thatapleasant taste isthesole
criteria bywhich toselect foods, even with foods asthey occur innature, ourtaste isthe
surest guide we have if our taste buds are unperverted.
Ideeply believe thatwecanaddcertain vegetables toourdietinsmall quantities
with some benefit, most notably lettuce andcelery.Their wealth ofvitamins andmineral
salts aswell astheir high quality protein amply supplement andinsure adequacy ofa
fruitarian diet. Ourbodies handle small amounts ofsuch vegetable farerather efficient-
lyandwithout protest. Inconjunction with avegetable meal certain fruits canalso be
added, especially bellpeppers, tomatoes andavocados. Secondarily wecanaddnuts on
occasion orseeds such aspumpkin, sesame idsunflower.These seeds have thesame di-
etetic character as nuts even though humans probably never ate them in nature.
Itiswell toalways keep inmind thatwearenotnaturally herbivores, graminivores,
carnivores, insectivores oromnivores. Neither areweoil,protein orstarch eaters except
incidentally.Ourprotein needs aremetamply from fruits buttheoccasional addition of
nuts, seeds andgreens insures dietary protein adequacy.However,wedonothandle con-
centrated foods containing oil,proteins andarches with anygreat degree ofefficiency.
They arebest eaten infrequently,perhaps twoorthree times weekly asProteins require
about 70% asmuch energytodigest andassimilate asthey furnish whereas sweet fruits
aresoefficiently handled thatthebody isable toutilize over 90% oftheir caloric energy
after deducting energies expended iningestion andassimilation. Moreover,proteins are
not used for ener gy as long as carbohydrates and fats are available.
That towhich wearephysiologically adapted isalso most effectively andefficiently
utilized.Vegetables, Irepeat, yield usnocalories asarule though wedoobtain from
them aplethora ofnutrients. Even so,fresh riperawfruits furnish usamply ofourneeds
including proteins, vitamins andmineral salts. Even ourvery small need foressential
fatty acids iswell metbyfruits. When wemeet ourrequirements, that’senough. Enoughisallweneed. Oversubscription canbelikeoverloading atruck oramule—it isvery
taxing and damaging.
Though vegetables arenotnatural toourdietary Imust reiterate thisobservation:
Notallvegetables arebadinourdietforthey areconsonant with ourneeds. Onthesame
order,notallfruits aregood forus.Many fruits arepoisonous. Some, though notpoiso-
nous, arenothandled well, such asoilyfruits likeBrazil nuts andpecans, high protein
andfatcontent nuts andseeds such asalmonds andsunflower,andstarchy fruits such as
pumpkins and chestnuts.
Nonatural food intheworld rivals fruits forexquisiteness andwholesomeness. Inas-
much astables ofcomposition offoods show fruits replete with ourneeds, andinasmuch
aswecanmore efficiently make useofthenutrients offruits than anyvegetable, legume
orgrain, wecansafely confine ourselves tocompletely fruitarian farewith great benefit.
While thecondition andquality offruits available inourmarketplaces arelamenta-
ble,thesame goes foreverything elsesold asfoods! Sowearestillbetter offwith fruits.
Some finequality fruits canbeobtained andweshould concentrate upon those. Dried
fruits have considerable goodness too.Weshould complement ourfruit meals with some
dried fruits, especially if we’re in need of high caloric intake.
Ibelieve thepoints made herein support overwhelmingly that wearefruitarians.
Thus I rest my case.

Saltisatrueanti-biotic (against alllife,akiller). Itwasformerly used asanembalm-
ingagent. Itisused today asa‘preservative’—killing thebacteria (life) toprevent the
natural decomposition of dead or ganisms.
Cramps initially experienced assaltisremoved from thediet orrapidly excreted
from the body are nothing more than “withdrawal symptoms.”
Ahealthy person onasalt-free dietwillexperience these same cramps ifheeatssalt.
Salteating isanaddiction begun prenatally andshortly after birth astheparents force
saltintothebaby totheextreme repulsion anddisgust ofthechild. After afewweeks of
forced eating thebaby’ sbody becomes soweakened thatitforms acraving andaddic-
tion. This continues throughout its life.
Inorder tofully understand thedisaster ofsalteating, let’sbriefly follow thepath of
saltfrom thetime itenters themouth until itisexcreted from thebody.Remember,salt
hasnothing todowith thesodium needs orexcesses ofthebody.Saltissodium chlo-
ridefirst, lastandalways from thetime itenters thebody until thetime itisdischar ged.
Ifitwere broken down intoitsprimary constituents, sodium andchlorine, asitpassed
through thebody thetragedy would becomplete since both inorganic sodium andin-
organic chlorine arehighly destructive tolifeandwould immediately render ahuman
lifeless.
Asthesaltenters themouth infood ordrink (orasadeadly salt‘pill’) thecells of
thelipsandlining ofthemouth (including gums andtongue) areseverely irritated, with
many killed and the rest seriously weakened.
Inahealthy body thefirstlineofdefense willbeinstantly activated with asevere and
intolerable stinging andburning sensation asthetissue cells aredestroyed andtheirri-
tation anddistress isimposed upon nerve cells. Thenatural response tosuch sensation
istospitoutthesubstance responsible foritsothatthedestruction willnotproceed any
further.Aweak, unhealthy,salt-addicted andtaste-perverted body issodepraved and
depressed initsdefensive capabilities thatitnotonly tolerates butalsodemands more of
the destructive addictive substance.
Thecells ofthemucous membrane ofthethroat, esophagus andstomach arethenext
tosufferthetragedy ofdeath anddestruction. Astheirritant moves intothestomach the
body’ s second line of defense goes into action.
Ahealthy body will instantly signal asensation ofnausea andtrigger violent con-
tractions ofthestomach tocause vomiting andprompt elimination ofthesalt. Aweak
unhealthy body willtolerate theirritation andpermit ittocontinue itsjourney ofdestruc-
tionassome ofitisabsorbed (assimilated) intothemucous membrane tissue andthence
into the bloodstream, and the rest is emptied into the duodenum.
Upon reaching theduodenum, cellular distress isonce again repeated. Since thetrap
door from thestomach hasclosed theonly way forprompt dischar geofthesaltpoison
isthrough theintestines andbowels. Anormal healthy body willrespond with violent
contractions oftheintestinal muscles which produce aprofuse flow offluid from the
mucous membranes todilute thesaltirritation andarapid propulsion ofthesaltsolution,
andeverything (allother ingested substances) suspended initorahead ofit,through
theintestines foraviolent watery dischar gefrom theanus (diarrhea). Aweak unhealthy
body will ofcourse failtoactively respond tothesalt, andthesaltsolution andim-
perfectly digested foods willbeabsorbed (assimilated) through theintestinal walls and
thence into the bloodstream.
Atthispoint thehealthy body hasriditself ofthesaltirritant byspitting itout,vom-
iting itupand/orexcreting itintheform ofdiarrhea. Theweak unhealthy body,onthe
other hand, hasdully accepted thepoison andpassed itthrough thestomach andintesti-
nallining, destroying andinjuring millions ofcells asitgoes. Alldigestive tract tissue
cells have suffered ashave allinvolved blood andlymph capillary cells. Theblood car-
riesthesaltallover thebody creating havoc with every cell. Thekidneys which normal-lyfilter outsmall amounts ofsaltwhich accidentally accompany digested food intothe

brain suffers. Allbody cells suf fer.
Once thesaltistrapped inthebody’ scirculating fluids thebody response isoneof
extreme thirst asthecellpopulation screams andcries forrelief from thedestructive
foreign irritant. Most ofthefluids consumed bytheperson arequickly assimilated and
dilute andexpand thevolume ofblood plasma, resulting inhigher blood pressure and
pulse rate. This inturn forces more fluid intotissue spaces todilute saltconcentrations
in an effort to relieve cell distress. The fluid accumulates and remains as edema.
Thetrailofdistress, destruction andtragedy istotal, having adversely affected every
cellinthebody.Allsurviving bodily defense mechanisms areactivated toeliminate the
saltthrough tears, sweat, urine, andmucus (excreted inthedigestive andrespiratory
tracts).
More consumed saltintensifies theprogressive destruction anddeterioration ofcells
and leads to functional and structural failures through the body.
Article #3: Here Are Some of the Reasons Why You Should Not Use
Condiments
1.Most condiments have no food value in themselves.
2.Most condiments are partially or totally indigestible.
3.Condiments areeaten forentertainment, notnourishment. Eating purely forentertain-
ment’ ssake is,asarule, unwholesome, though, tobesure, proper foods arenotonly
nourishing but also a delight to the palate.
4.Condiments interfere with thedigestion ofthefoods with which they areeaten, some-
times making awhole meal indigestible. Fifty percent ofallmeals eaten inAmerica end
in indigestion. Condiments share a lar ge part of the responsibility for this.
5.Thepoisonous elements ofcondiments (such asthemustard oilofonions, garlic, shal-
lots, mustard, etc.ortheallicin ofgarlic) cause injury inthebody ifabsorbed, especially
to the or gans of purification and detoxification, such as the liver and kidneys.
6.Ourability tosavor flavors isdestroyed bycondiments. That which overly excites our
taste buds slowly destroys our sense of taste.
7.Condiments cause disease! Headaches, high blood pressure, edema andalong listof
other conditions are directly traceable to such condiments as MSG, salt, vinegar, etc.
Article #4: Using Condiments Is Like Wearing Makeup By Marti Fry
Makeup isused bymany women (and some men) forseveral reasons. Ithighlights the
eyes with eyeliner,mascara and/oreyeshadow; thecheekbones with blusher andthelips
with lipstick. Foundation, usually aflesh-colored liquid, isused togive aneven andun-
blemished appearance to the entire face.
Many ofusareaware thatthe“natural look” isbetter,both aesthetically andhealth-
wise. Irritating, often carcinogenic, substances ondelicate facial skin andnear theeyes
and on the eyelashes are unnecessary and phony.
The healthy glow that comes from plenty ofsunshine, exercise and wholesome
foods; aloving disposition andenough sleep, restandrelaxation, mirrors true health.
Ahealthy person isabeautiful person. Makeup isused togive thefalse impression of
healthful beauty.
Ifyouwear make-up butdecide tostop using it,itmay take youawhile togetused
to the “new you.”Atfirstyoumight notlikethenatural youbecause you’re notused toit.Butintime
you’ll seethephoniness ofthemakeup onother people asrepulsive, notattractive asit

42.1.1 The Myth Of Herbs
The woman was proudly showing me the inside of her medicine cabinet:
“See? Nopills, bottles ofmedicine, drugs oranything! Igotridofthem all.Idon’t
trust doctors or prescription medicines. I take only natural things.”
Shereached inside thecabinet andstarted pulling outcapsules, tinctures, andpow-
ders.
“This ispeppermint oil,” shetoldme.“Iuseitinstead ofanantacid forstomach up-
set.I’ve gotthese white willow bark pills forheadaches soIwon’ tneed aspirin. Iused
totake tranquilizers, butnow Icanusethese valerian root extracts tomake merelaxed.
I just use herbs now when I’m sick. I don’ t buy anything from a drugstore.”
“That’ s too bad,” I said.
She looked shocked. “Why? Because I don’ t buy drugs anymore?”
“No,” Ireplied, “it’stoobadyou’re stillpoisoning yourself with drugs—that’ swhat
allthese herbs are.They may grow wild andnaturally,butthey’re justasdeadly asthose
pills with the unpronounceable names that the pharmacist sells you.”
Many people canbeconvinced about thedanger ofprescription andover-the-counter
drugs. They,orpeople they know,have often suffered side effects from drugs sold as
cures. Yetthese same people areoften amazed thatherbs tooareequally useless and
dangerous in restoring health.
Herbs have anundeserved reputation as“natural,” “organic,” “powerful,” and“an-
cient.” They grow outoftheearth—they must beokay,these people reason. Such people
may violently distrust bottles ofmedicines andpills sold bydrugstores, butthey will
dutifully swallow capsule after capsule thatcontains thepowdered remains ofsome un-
familar plant.
This lesson istohelp youexplain toyour friends andclients why herbs arenotharm-
less; why they arenotsafe; why they should notbeused. Somany myths surround herbs,
herb taking, and herbalists that the air must be cleared.42.1.2 What Is an Herb?
Most ofushave apretty good idea what anherb is.Wegenerally think ofsome wild
plant thattastes somewhat badwhich isused insmall amounts forsome ailment orthe
other.
There may besome confusion, however,between herbs andvegetables, orother edi-
bleplants. Forexample, lettuce andsalad vegetables aresometimes called “herbs.” Pars-
ley,which may beeaten occasionally with other vegetables, isclassified asanherb. An-
imals, such ashorses andcows, which eatprimarily grass andgreens arecalled herbi-
vores or herb eaters.
Even thedictionary isnohelp indistinguishing herbs from vegetables. One defini-
tionofanherb isthatitisa“seed plant which diestotheground attheendofaseason.”
This would mean thatlettuce, cabbage, andindeed, almost allgarden vegetables, could
beclassified asherbs. Another definition ofanherb isthatit’sa“plant orplant part
which is valued for its medicinal or savory properties.”
Now wecanseethetwosides ofanherb. Itcaneither beafood (like asalad veg-
etable) oritcanbeadrug oraseasoning. Forthislesson, anherb willnotbeconsidered
asafood orasasalad vegetable. Ifitissafe toeat,aplant isclassified asafood. Ifit
has toxic, or “medicinal” properties, than it is classified as a drug.
This lesson isconcerned chiefly with theherb asadrug. Mention will bemade of
herbs as foods, and whether they are proper nourishment for humans.
42.1.3 Warning: Herbs May Be Dangerous To Your Health!
Some people may notbelieve thatherbs canhave anyeffectinkeeping uswell and
healthy,butfewpeople actually consider herbs tobeharmful. Herbs areplants andgrow
naturally,anditseems thatonly people liketheFDA andAMA have anything “bad” to
sayabout these substances. Butherbs arenotonly ineffective inproducing health, they
poison the body and may create serious complications in the user of such plants.
Allherbs contain poisonous volatile oilsandalkaloids. Allherbs arefatal when tak-
eninlargeenough doses. Even moderate amounts ofcertain herbs cancause vomiting,
diarrhea, fever, headaches, and spontaneous abortions.
Many people donotrealize thattheherbs they take areinfactpoisoning them. The
reason? Herbs aretaken insmall amounts—usually small enough nottooccasion aseri-
ousandpainful reaction, butstillenough tocause thebody toreact radically andexpedi-
tiously toeliminate them. These reactions bythebody toeliminate thetoxic substances
found inherbs aretaken as“proof” byherbalists thattheir potions aredoing their job.A
job is being done, all right, but the results are not always as advertised.
Ifherbs arenotharmful, why must they betaken insuch small amounts? Like pep-
per,spices, andcondiments, herbs cannot beingested inamounts largerthan atable-
spoon orso.Even more telling isthetaste ofherbs themselves. Almost without excep-
tion, herbs arebitter,strong, andfoul tasting. This isawarning tothebody nottoeat
such substances.
Veryfew people would chew andswallow amouthful ofanherb. They couldn’ t
choke such astrong andbadtasting substance down. Instead, they usually grind and
powder theherb until itcanbestuffedintoacapsule andslipped past thesense oftaste
which is the body’ s guardian against poisons and drugs.
Ifafood orsubstance cannot beenjoyed—if itdoes nothave apleasant taste—then
itshould never beeaten oringested. Even aperverted sense oftaste canprotect aperson
from thefoulpoisons found inherbs. Yetwith pills, capsules, andinfusions, theherbal-
istshave found ways tosneak aplant intothebody thatitwould never relish ordesire
normally.
Still, people who areattracted toanatural way oflifeanddietdefend herbs andtheir
use. Maybe we should ask the question:42.1.4 Are Herbs “Natural”?
Ofcourse herbs arenatural. They grow inevery partoftheworld without cultivation.
Unlike most fruits andvegetables, herbs have notbeen altered through selective planting
orbreeding. Theherbs growing today aremuch thesame asthose thatgrew fivethou-
sand years ago. Noonecanarguethatherbs arenotnatural plants. But, arethey natural
for man to eat and use?
Theargument forherbs hasbeen thatsince they grow everywhere, they must begood
forsomething. Weshould beable tousethese wild plants since they must beprovided
for us by nature or by a divine being.
One ofthebestknown herbalists inAmerica answers thequestion “why useherbs?”
as follows:
“Herbs arenature’ sremedies, andthey have been puthere byanall-wise Creator.
There isanherb forevery disease thatahuman body canbeafflicted with. Herbs were
mentioned in the Bible, and much has been written about them all through history.”
Inthewords ofDr.Herbert M.Shelton: “Such anargument isspecious, false, un-
scientific, andabsurd. Itisnotsustained bytheory norbyresults, neither bylogic, or
analogy, nor by experiment or experience.”
Simply because aplant grows naturally does notmean thatitwas intended oror-
dained byadivine being (ornature) forouruse.Agreat many plants grow allaround us
thatarerank poisons. Thetobacco plant haslargeandlovely


 asfresh fruits andvegetables inthesummer
andthedried fruits, nuts andgreens inthefallandwinter.Nowadays, with supermarket
and technological junk foods, people can eat the same poor diet all year round.
During thehotmonths ofthesummer,myown dietischiefly melons, tomatoes, and
peaches. These arehigh-fluid foods, andthey help tokeep thebody water -cooled. The
summer fruits arealso high inpotassium andsodium, which areimportant minerals in
maintaining the bock’ s water balance.
Youdonotneed extra saltoranysaltinthesummer..People thateatsaltsweat it
outduring tiesummer because thebody istrying toeliminate it.The mistake ismade
thatsince saltisleaving thebody,itmust bereplaced, sothey eatmore saltandthebody
must work alltheharder togetridofitagain. Saltserves nopurpose inthehuman diet,
and its use in the summer (or anytime) is not recommended.
When theweather iscold, you’ll need more carbohydrates inyour dietforwinter
fuel—not fatsorproteins. Apublic health nutritionist inNew York,Beverly Daniel, puts
itthisway: “Invery cold weather,people need toeatadietheavy incarbohydrates—like
fruits andvegetables. Eating fatisagood way togetfat.Fats arehard todigest insum-
merorwinter.About seven years ago, thearmy tested soldiers stationed incold moun-
tainareas. They always picked carbohydrate foods over fatsandproteins fortheir body’ s
fuel needs.”
Dried fruits andthemore-concentrated fresh fruits (like bananas andpersimmons)
are the best high-carbohydrate sources for winter needs.
Incidentally,alayer offatisnotagood idea inwinter orsummer.Ina1958 govern-
ment test, overweight men didfeelthecold lessthan thinpeople, butwhen theexposure
tothecold wasprolonged, theunderweight individuals suffered lesscumulative effects
ofcold stress than those with heavy fatlayers. Without exception, thethinpeople also
readjusted to the heat much better than those that were overweight.
Sodon’tusewinter asanexcuse topileonlayers offat— unless, likethebear,you
plan to sleep and fast until spring!
Manmade Weather
Another way youcanbetter adapt toweather changes isbyavoiding asmuch “man-
made weather” as possible, such as unnecessary heating and cooling.
Humans have adefinite metabolic need forfresh airtopass over their exposed skins.
Especially while sleeping do we need an open circulation of fresh air.Byliving intightly-sealed, climatically controlled buildings allyear-round, welose
ourability toreadily adjust toweather changes. Intheperfect environment forman, tem-
perature extremes would notrequire artificial heating orcooling. Actually,aircondition-
inginthesummer isarealnewcomer,andwith appropriate building design anddress, it
could be eliminated.
Don’ tmake yourself uncomfortable, butdotake every opportunity tokeep your liv-
ingandwork areas open tothecurrent weather.Don’ tlet“manmade weather” beyour
constant year -round environment.
Becoming Less Weather Sensitive
Tobecome lesssensitive toweather changes, improve your physical health andre-
view your emotional attitudes. Weather sensitivity canbedecreased bychanging your
lifestyle andtheway youview theworld. Weather sensitivity does change throughout
your life,perhaps reflecting your strength andstate ofhealth. Infants andelderly people
arethemost sensitive toweather changes, followed byadolescents andadults. Young
children are the least sensitive of all.
Ever notice how preschool children canplay outside inthehottest sunorrunaround
without their jackets inthesnow? Their young bodies stillpossess boundless health and
vitality that allows them to rise above the weather conditions.
We can achieve that state again, too, if we follow a few simple rules:
1.Reduce your dependence onmanmade weather (heating andcooling) while stillmain-
taining a reasonable comfort zone;
2.Eatadietinournatural food (fresh fruits andvegetables) andeatinseason—juicy fruits
inthesummer andmore concentrated carbohydrates (dried fruits, nuts, etc.) inthewin-
ter;
3.Fast orfollow anoptimum diettodetoxify your body sothatitwillbecome lessweather -
sensitive. This isespecially beneficial forarthritis andthose thatcomplain ofweather -
related pains, aches and aller gies;
4.Exercise outside intheopen onayear-round basis, even ifonly forfiveortenminutes
(if weather is severe).
5.Spend more andmore time outside intheopen airandlesstime inbuildings. Living in
buildings removes usfrom ournatural environment andincreases our“sensitivity” to
natural changes intheweather,etc.Besides paying attention tosuch physical details,
you might also need to consider your weather sensitivity in a psychological light.
Adapting toweather changes may justreflect adifficulty inadapting toallchanges
inlife. People who complain about theweather allthetime may be“setintheir ways”
and be afraid or resist any kind of change—even a passing cool front!
Weather -sensitive people, according tothebiometeorologist, Dr.DeRudder,areof-
tenvery emotional, perspire profusely when nervous, color rapidly when annoyed, and
rarely saythatthey feelwell. Some ofthese people usetheweather asaconvenient way
to blame their own negative feelings and emotions.
Then, too,weather sensitivity may also beareflection ofourgeneral sensitivity to
lifeitself. Highly aware people aretuned intoallaspects oftheir environment, includ-
ingtheweather.Many famous artists, musicians, andwriters have often discussed their
oversensitivity tochanges intheweather.Being aware ofweather changes isonething;
having them dominate your life is another.
Weather You Believe It or Not...
Theweather isthegreat equalizer ofmankind. Rich andpoor,oldandyoung—we
all share the weather again.Like anyother aspect ofourenvironment, theweather isgoing toaffecteach ofusin
different ways. Theway your body responds totheweather isdependent onyour level
of health, both physical and emotional.
You’ve heard itsaid thatyoucan’tdoanything about theweather buttalkabout it.
Well,that’snottruewhen itcomes toyour own health. Ahealthier person does adapt to
weather changes better than his sickly neighbor.
Sodon’tjusttalkabout your health, dosomething about it,andyou’ll never feelun-
der the weather again!Lesson 55 - Prenatal Care For Better Infant And

55.1. Introduction
Approaches topregnancy andchildbirth have changed gradually through theages. Prim-
itive women went through their entire pregnancies with noproblems. When thetime to
give birth arose, shemerely went about itquietly andwith little ornopain. There was
nointerference from anyone. Thewhole birth process took heraway from regular life
activities for perhaps a couple of hours.
Aspeople became more “civilized” (intheir diets andlifestyles), they began creating
means ofintervention—attending theprocesses ofpregnancy,labor,anddelivery “better
than nature” could. One tribe ofpeople isreported tohave hung pregnant women upside
down from atreetoscare thebaby out.Another tribe hadsomeone sitonapregnant
woman’ sbelly toforce outthechild. These people hadnounderstanding ofthemechan-
ics of labor and childbirth.
Man hadawonder andfearofchildbirth ashehadnever observed it.Hebelieved
women possessed some sortof“power.”Because ofthis, heeventually took chargeof
theentire birth process (from conception tobirth) byinterfering initsnatural progres-
sion: Practices such asdrugging during labor,Caesarean sections, forceps deliveries,
drugs for various “complications” of pregnancy, etc., were ushered in.
Now there areeven more devices to“aid” women through labor anddelivery.De-
vices such assonar sound, fetal heart monitors, etc., arevery commonplace inhospital
deliveries. Y ou can even find out the sex of your baby ahead of time now.
Humans seem tohave lostfaith innature andmost donotbelieve thatabirth can
benatural. Most ofushave little ornoknowledge ofthefactors thatcreate anormal
pregnancy andchildbirth. Pregnancy isregarded asdisease tobetreated. Women usual-
lygive birth inhospitals fortheconvenience ofphysicians. Physicians have long since
discovered that interference in childbirth is an economic plus for them.
Despite allofthis, there isagrowing number ofwomen (usually educated) thatno
longer patronize physician/ hospital births. They


one’sdigestive function isnever up
to par after the operation.
There isavery interesting name fortheincision often used intheperformance of
thislittle operation. Itisamodest little name foranot-so-modest incision. Itis,infact,
based onaparticularly violent andfatal mutilation popularized inWorldWarII.Itisthe
descriptive image ofhow thegallbladder operation isbegun. Itiscalled the“hara-Kiri”
incision.
D&C(Dilation ordilation andcurettage) -This operation isperformed ifyouhave
abnormally heavy bleeding intheuterus; toobtain atissue specimen forexamination, to
treat an incomplete abortion or miscarriage, or to terminate a pregnancy.
Donotthink thatthisoperation isperfectly safebecause itisnot.Tissue damage can
bedone duetothistotally unnecessary operation. Any abnormality such asheavy bleed-
ing will be corrected by the body when a healthful regime is begun.
Gastrointestinal Surgery (Including gastric resection, intestinal resection, colosto-
my,ileostomy,andcontinent ileostomy) -This operation isdone forulcers, tumors, in-
flammatory diseases oftheintestine, ordiverticulitis—all ofwhich may becausing pain,
bleeding, obstruction orperforation. Theonly valid reason why thisoperation should be
performed isifthere isamechanical obstruction orfortissue repair following anacci-
dent.
Invariably when thisoperation isperformed forthefirstreasons given, atsome point
atube isinserted through your nose anddown your esophagus into your stomach or
small intestine. These tubes areused forfeeding, foradministering drugs, andforre-
moving fluid andgasfrom thestomach orintestines, aswell asforobtaining specimens
forstudy.Thetube willbeananasogastric tube ifitistoreach your stomach, anintesti-
naltube ifitistoreach your small intestine. Thetube istaped inplace atyour nose or
forehead. Asitisinserted, youaresupposed tohelp itdown bya,couple ofswallows or
afewsipsofwater through astraw.Theintestinal tube hasaweight attheend, usual-
lyasmall, softplastic bagweighted with mercury,which allows peristalsis, thenatural
movement of your intestines to carry it along, just as it would carry food.
Ifthetube isbeing used forsuctioning outfluid andgas, itwill beattached toa
gentle suction pump, which works intermittently. When it is working, a light goes on.
No one should have to submit themselves to this torture-some treatment.Gastrectomy -This mutilating stomach cutting never was constructive. Instead of
telling the patient how to live more healthfully, they simply cut out the stomach.
They sever thevagus nerve tothestomach, thepatient notknowing thatthenerve
almost always grows back. They connect thestomach tothebowel andthereby trade ul-
cersymptoms forworse symptoms called “dumping syndrome.” They cut,stitch, anas-
tomose, sever,remove, andgenerally make theulcer patient alifetime digestive cripple.
Intestinal Resection -This operation isperformed toremove tumors orportions of
theintestine with diverticuli orinflammatory disease. After theaffected portion hasbeen
removed andthetwoparts ofyour intestine arereconnected, acolostomy may bedone It
isdone temporarily,toallow theintestine toheal andreconnect itinasecond operation,
or it may be permanent.
Ifyour intestine isinflamed orifyouhave diverticuli ortumors, thebody canand
will heal ifthecauses ofdisease areremoved andarestistaken. This mutilating op-
eration isunnecessary andwillnever provide health. Toomany ofthese operations are
performed daily, giving the sick individual false hopes of recovery.
Ileosiomy -Ifthecolon isdiseased, theentire colon andrectum willberemoved, and
from then on,waste willdrain through anartificially-created opening ontheabdomen
into a plastic pouch.
This operation makes cripples outofhundreds ofpeople every year.Itisbased on
thefalse idea thatifthediseased portion ofthebody iscutout,then total health will
result. This isentirely absurd. Totalhealth only conies from total healthful living. When
theLaws ofLife areobeyed, allorgans ofthebody willfunction perfectly,including the
bowels.
Coronary Artery Bypass -This operation isperformed ifoneormore ofthecoro-
nary arteries (thevessels supplying theheart) have become clogged byatherosclerosis.
Themost common conditions forwhich thisoperation isdone areangina pectoris (se-
vere chest pain) andsevere disease oftheleftmain coronary artery.The operation in-
volves using grafts from alegvein tocreate new routes around thearteries (hence the
term bypass) sothatblood cantravel freely totheheart muscle. Sometimes themamma-
ry artery is used to create the new route.
First done 14years ago. itisacontroversial procedure today.While there isnoques-
tion thatitrelieves theimmediate symptoms, ithasnotyetbeen conclusively proven
that it prolongs life.
Hemorrhoidectomy (Removal ofhemorrhoids) -This common operation isper-
formed forpainful orbleeding hemorrhoids (varicose veins oftherectum). When they
areinside theanal sphincter,they arecalled internal; when outside, external. Internal
hemorrhoids frequently prolapse through theanal sphincter andcause pain. Iftheblood
within them clots, they are said to be thrombosed.
Pain, anesthesia, riskofsurgery,inflammation, time lostfrom work, theexpense are
allconsequences ofthisneedless surgery.Most often, thehemorrhoids return because
the cause for them has not been removed.
Hernia Repair (Called herniorrhaphy) -Performed torepair aweakened muscle
through which anabdominal organ, usually theintestine, protrudes. There areseveral
types ofhernia, butinguinal—low ontheabdomen near thegroin—is themost common.
This operation canbedone asanoutpatient anddoesn’ trequire hospitalization or
anoperating room. The whole cost ofthehospital stay,operating room, anesthesiolo-
gist, etc., could bedispensed with. Theindividual rests forabitafterward andthen goes
home.
However,hernias canoften becorrected through special exercises performed daily
athome. Dr.Shelton describes several exercises inhisbook, Exercise. Byallmeans, you
should give these exercises a fair try before subjecting yourself to any sur gery.
Hysterectomy -The removal oftheuterus supposedly takes away aso-called
“cancer -prone” organ. Thus thegynecologist justifies theoperation andthelargefeesfor
performing this major sur gical procedure.Along with theuterus, they usually remove theovaries. This induces aninstant “sur-
gical menopause.” Often, thewomen develop years ofanxiety,depression, sweats, hot
Hashes, andaconstellation ofsymptoms ofestrogen deficiency.The physician gives
herestrogen shots orestrogen tablets once amonth. However,theestrogen itself isa
cancer -causing agent. Thus aso-called “cancer -prone” organhasbeen removed sothat
the woman can get shots of a known cancer -causing agent.
Prostatectomy -Sitting atthebase ofthebladder inthemale, asmall roundish gland
thesizeofachestnut circles themale urethra. Sometimes itenlar gesabitandpresses
ontheurethra, causing slow starts andaslow flow onurination. However,thisisnota
valid reason toremove thegland. Assoon asthecause fortheswelling isremoved, the
prostrate will return to normal size.
Prostatectomy may leave asitsaftermath loss ofbladder control (incontinence of
urine), impotence, inflammation, impaired ejaculation, sterility,andrecurrent return vis-
its to the urologist.
Tonsillectomy and Adenoidectomy (TandA)-This operation ismost often per-
formed onchildren under sixwho have hadrecurrent sore throats (asymptom ofheal-
ing), who have difficulty swallowing, breathing, ortalking because their tonsils and/or
adenoids are enlar ged. They enlar ge because of chronic toxicosis.
Theadenoids shrink asthechild grows older anyway,sothesurgeon issure toop-
erate before thatnaturally occurs. Weshould notmutilate andcripple ourchildren with
this totally unnecessary sur gery. Tonsils and adenoids are vital or gans of detoxification.
Thyroidectomy -The factthatenlar gedthyroids, overactive thyroids, andunder-
active thyroids canbecompletely healed without medicine orsurgery isafactthathas
largely been ignored bythegeneral surgeons. They routinely cutoutthethyroid gland,
trusting tofat


 establishment andthose with amedical orientation inoursociety regard
bloody menstruation asnormal andaremystified andperplexed when that periodic
bloody dischar gefails toputinitsregular appearance. What they regard asnormal is
obviously unnatural bythecriteria wehave cited. Hence there areobviously some flaws
in medical premises or assumptions on this subject.
Those who have studied thesubject know thattheageofonset ofpuberty isadvanc-
ingonemonth every five years inoursociety.Can itbethatourgenetic encoding is
evolving tomake puberty inhumans anever-earlier occurrence? Why isnotthesame
accelerated appearance of menarche occurring in wild animals too?
Toarrive attheanswer,allourresearchers hadtodowastogoback toourbiological
basics. The foremost instinct inanimal life, humans included, ispreservation ofself.
Incertain circumstances asecondary instinct becomes primary: thesurvival ofkind or
species. Nature hasbuilt into creatures amultitude ofsafeguards toinsure against ex-
tinction.
Hence wewitness under abroad spectrum ofcircumstances orcrises thissalient
factor,survival ofkind, (either family,tribe, community,nation, race orspecies) takes
precedence over personal survival. This happens onabiological basis aswell asona
psychological basis. Thus theinstinct forreproduction ofkind often asserts itself withuntoward emphasis when alife-endangering situation exists. This ismost dramatically
expressed by a farmer ’s adage: “plants that are sickly go to seed quickly.”
This sheds some light onthedilemma theresearchers attheHarvard School ofPub-
licHealth gotthemselves into. They failed totake cognizance ofbasic principles that
appertain within the biological realm.
Thus itbecomes apparent thattheearlier theonset ofmenarche andreproductive fac-
ulties, themore alife-endangering situation exists fortheorganism. And, likewise the
longer menarche requires toputinanappearance, uptoapoint, themore normal and
salubrious is the condition of the subject or ganism.
Once thissalient factbecomes apart ofourthinking, thesooner wewill begin to
comprehend what the“ballerina syndrome” isallabout. Ballerinas’ extraordinary fitness
isevident toall.Fitness andhealth arepractically synonymous terms. Thus webegin to
ascertain thatmenarche and“menstruation” (thekind accompanied bybloody dischar ge)
has something to do with the woman’ s state of health.
Amere 150years agoourfemale forebears (young women who arrived atmenarche)
experienced puberty atanaverage ageoffourteen tofifteen years. Insome European
countries theaverage agewassixteen toseventeen years. Thesame held forsome Asi-
aticcountries, notably those ultrahealthy Hunzas whose menarche wasnotreached until
sixteen to seventeen years of age.
The principle isthus revealed: thehealthier thefemale thelater menarche occurs,
which happens when thegenetically encoded biological clock decrees it.The less
healthy thefemale, thesooner menarche occurs tooffsetthepossibility thatpoor health
will evolve into infertility.
Inthecase oftheballerinas aswell aswomen athletes wewitness butonething: the
phenomenon ofhealth. This contrasts with amedically established “norm” ofapopula-
tion that is, on average, pathological!

Alllifeissubject tolaws. Fixed material relationships provide thebalance necessary to
oursurvival andsustenance. They also dictate theconditions, primordial requisites and
limitations within whereby weareable toflourish abundantly andlivehealthfully onour
planet.
These laws follow anorganized structure—a universal order—a perfect pattern be-
ginning with space andtime, energyanditsactivity—co-existing inconstant, sponta-
neous, harmonious vibration andautomatic progression asacontinuum. Thebasic pri-
mary laws ofvibration andbonding give energyitsshape andsubstance intheform
which wecallmatter.Allmatter isbonded energy.This matter/ energyharmony,gov-
erned byperfect universal order,isthebasis foralllaws andconstants ofphysics and
chemistry such asthelaws ofmass andcentrifugal force, which actinharmony tocre-
atethegravitational balance which isaconstant ofourexistence onEarth. These funda-
mentals (our basic sciences) harmonize gogive usthebasic principles ofbiology,bio-
chemistry,anatomy andphysiology,thesecondary sciences which determine ouridenti-
ty,composition, characteristics, andbehavior asliving organisms insymbiotic relation-
ships toourinternal andexternal environment andform which thelaws ofvital relation
governing all plant and animal life, of which we are an integral part, are formulated.
This isthebasis forourstudy ofhuman life.Without these functional relationships,
there could benolifeasweknow it.Withthem, lifeispossible. Ifallowed tofollow
nature’ sperfect course ofaction, lifeimmediately andautomatically proceeds inthedi-
rection ofperfect form. Itoriginated anddeveloped instrict obedience tothelaws of
nature. Life can be perfect if the laws of life are followed.
Life isacontinuum. Itisgoverned byimmutable laws. These laws areunvarying.
They must meet certain criteria to be termed laws of nature. These criteria are:
First, theprinciple, relationship orlawmust befixed orconstant—the same inall
places and at all times, universally applicable under all conditions.Second, itmust begoverned byuniversal order,harmonious with allother laws, re-
liable and predictable.
Third, itmust beinherent inthenature ofthings asanintegral factor,necessary to
thecompletion ofthesequence ofnatural process; thatis,nature asweknow itcould not
be sustained without it.
Fourth, itmust beall-encompassing, excluding nothing. Allaspects ofnature must
be governed by it.
And fifth, itmust describe succinctly andaccurately thenormal sequence ofdevel-
opments and be the guiding principle in fundamental relationships.
Allofthese criteria arenecessary totheformulation ofalawofnature. Allthelaws
ofnature meet these criteria inevery sense. They areasreliable asthemotion oftheuni-
verse. Inthesame way,weknow where aplanet inoursolar system orourmoon willbe
atanygiven moment based onlaws ofplanetary motion inastronomy.Withcharts and
records, wecanbesure andfeelsafe andsecure about thelaws ofanatomy andphys-
iology governing human lifeandhealth. The laws never change; only environmental
conditions change. Thesame lawofgravity thatallows aballoon torisebrings itback
toEarth; thedifference inconditions controls itsaltitude, butthelawremains constant.
Likewise, thesame laws thatcause aship tofloat will, under changed conditions, allow
it to sink. Again, the conditions change, but the laws remain constant.
Inthesame way,wecancontrol ourquality ofhealth with thehelp ofnature by
changing ourconditions— removing thecauses ofdisease development andsupplying
the body intelligently with its needs—the elements of health.
Itisimpossible tobreak alawofnature. Tosaywehave “broken” alawofnature is

offerthan this. Shedetermined
to improve her health and to get out of her rut before all of life had passed her by.
Soitwasthatfour years agoshecame tous.Shebegan tolearn about Natural Hy-
giene. Shebecame ourprivate student. Shetook herphysical inheritance andfasted for
14days ontwoseparate occasions, once atDr.Shelton’ sandagain with Dr.Vetrano. She
made amazing progress physically.Themental changes were slower incoming butthey
came.Sheistaking assertiveness classes now atthelocal college. Sheattends Al-Anon.
The metamorphosis, the change, has been wondrous to watch.
This morning wediscussed theICAN concept ofliving with her.The need isto
change anattitude ofhelplessness tooneof“Ican,” towatch over ourown conduct and
cease being critical ofothers, theneed todevelop acommitment totheimprovement of
self. This isnotthefirst time wehadspoken inthisvein toherbutoneofmany.We
pointed outtoherthatitisnow time forhertoestablish anew goal, toselect oneall-im-
portant goal andtodirect herthoughts toward it.Itisalsotime perhaps forhertoremove
herself finally from her restraints, to cast them all aside.
Our client haschanged, shehasgrown. Herhusband, unfortunately,hasremained
justashewas, inaboxofhisown making. Heissick, butsheisnow well. Shehas
proved herself because shewaswilling andeven eager tomake changes inherlifestyle.
Hehasremained inhisboxbecause, stubbornly,herefused tochange. Hisboxismade
ofinferior materials: ofbeer,steaks, frog legsandwine. Sheiscommitted toadventure,
determined to explore life and to understand its full meaning.
What didthiswoman require ofustohelp hertogetoutofherbox? Ittook knowl-
edge, ittook empathy toward hervery realproblems, toherpain andsuffering; ittook
repetition time andtime again ofconcepts andprinciples. Ittook encouraging words,
reminding herofthepossibilities. Attimes, iteven took scolding. But, most ofall,itre-
quired improved health.
Thedays ofwhining andwondering arealmost over.Ourclient hassethernew goal
andwebelieve shewillattain herdesire: tobesohealthy thatnochallenge willbetoo
great. Perhaps shewillnever have itall,butweknow she’ll give itagood try!And, we
think, too,thatlifewillknow thatthiswoman passed byandachieved something worthy
while she lived.
Geor geS.Weger inhisbook, TheGenesis andContr olofDisease,gives usanother
classic example ofhow themind cansometimes control usandeven create disease. A
young man of33,happily married, afather,mentally keen, extraverted type, with novi-
cious habits, andsuccessful inbusiness began tofailinhealth. Hehadanervous break-
down andsuffered digestive disturbances, jaundice andbecame highly emaciated. Like
somany others heendured many examinations andmuch drugging. Hebecame emo-
tionally disturbed.
Dr.Weger also fasted hispatient aswedidourwoman foraperiod oftwoweeks
and, inthefollowing sixmonths, theman showed remarkable, recovery.Dr.Weger un-
covered some amazing psychic aspects which hadpreviously been entirely overlooked
by other practitioners.
91.2.3 Health and the Psyche
Asquoted from Weger: “The psychic aspects ofthecase were asfollows: During
early childhood anelder brother took particular delight inthreatening hisyounger broth-
ersandsisters with bodily injury,even menacing them with knives anddeclaring thathe
would killthem. Thepatient developed afear-complex which became more assertive as
hegrew tomaturity.Ashishealth became impaired, hedeveloped anobsession which
hetried desperately torepress. Hebecame thevictim ofanalmost unconquerable urge
tokillhiswife andchildren. These obsessive inclinations lefthiminacold sweat, trem-
bling, weeping, andaghast attheenormity ofhisweakness. When helearned how this
complex hadoriginated inthesubconscious andwhat amomentous effect therepression
hadonhisphysical well-being aswell asonhismental morale, hiscomplex became
sublimated. Hewasanaptstudent andsoon understood how itwaspossible forhismen-
talrepression toexert alikeinfluence onhisphysical organism, overstimulating certain
endocrines (such asthesuprarenal andthyroid) anddepressing other glands (such asthe
pancreas andliver), andhow thisincluded also allthefunctions ofdigestion andelimi-
nation. Understanding in this case was the equivalent of cure.”Inthecase ofourwoman client, shewasmotivated tochange bythedesire toremove
herself from therestraints imposed onherbyherthoughtless husband. InWeger’scase,
understanding thatthecause ofthepsychic aspects ofhisphysical ailments layinhis
childhood experiences, motivated himtocontrol histhoughts, toredirect them inmore
positive channels. Inboth cases, correction resulted when they became aware thatthey
could beinchargeoftheir own lives. They replaced Helplessness with Capability,the
changes inlifestyle then followed, thetoxic condition wasalleviated byfasting andboth
moved on to new and more rewarding lives.
Once aclient understands thatwhatever ailshim/heriscapable ofsolution andthat
you, theHygienic practitioner,have both theunderstanding ofcause andtheknowledge
ofhow tosolve theclient’ sproblem, andthatitispossible tochange sick ways into
health-promoting ways, simply bymaking certain changes inlifestyle, theclient willbe
more favorably disposed tomake whatever ‘changes’ youpropose; atleast totake the
initial, hesitant first steps.
Sometimes themere revelation ofthesource ofpsychic disturbances, talking them
outwith awilling listener,willassist therecovery process. Itseems thatcleaning outthe
cobwebs thatclutter themind often opens upunknown depths oflong-unused thought,
and makes one more receptive to change.
Acase study wehave previously written about comes tomind. This woman, asa
child, hadbeen subjected tomuch physical andmental abuse from herfather,apromi-
nent politician. Incest hadbeen only oneofmany frightening experiences. Asateenager,
there hadbeen twoattempted rapes. When shecame tous,shewasinhermiddle sixties
and, uptothistime, hadnever revealed anyofthese sordid details toanother single soul,
noteven toherhusband orchildren. The story came outinatorrent, thetears poured
down hercheeks assheopened wide hersoul andrevealed how ravaged andunclean she
had felt throughout her lifetime.
Itwaslikewashing thewindows toreveal theday.From then onitwascomparative-
lyclear sailing. Shewashighly motivated togothedistance, toclean outevery corner
ofherphysical body justasshehadcleaned outthepoisons from hermind. Shenow
understood that it had been this mental poison that had gradually taken away her health.
Motivation must always precede recovery.Therecovery,ofcourse, willnecessarily
have adynamic basis andmust beconceived inforce, desire, goal ordrive. The indi-
viduals must devoutly andfervently want health. Indeed, they must beimbued with an
inner drive to reach a goal of superior health because it is now a very personal goal.
When thegoal becomes apersonal thing, even ifobstacles arise, as,forexample, a
temporary healing crisis, they will notbedefeated oreven diverted from pursuing the
goal. Theindividuals understand thatthey must cope with anyproblems confronted be-
cause they want tosolve them; i.e.,they desire toimprove health somuch thatthey will
dowhatever isrequired, make whatever changes arenecessary toattain health, even ifit
means deserting the herd.
91.2.4 To Change, We Must Desert the Herd
Individual clients must bemotivated todesert theherd. Asachild weareallbio-
logically dependent onothers. Asadults weareexpected totake command ofourown
selves. Wemust remove ourselves from allcultural dependence, from media depen-
dence; otherwise, wedevalue Self. Appreciation ofSelf isimportant torecovery from
sickness. Furthermore, if we don’ t, we soon lose control of Self.
AsHygienists weequate sickness with theherd mentality.Statistics prove thepoint
for,asagroup, theherd issick. When clients understand this, they become better moti-
vated towithdraw themselves from theherd andadapt more readily totheconcept that
change is vital.
Sometimes accepting divorcement from theherd andtheneed tochange gives riseto
temporary conflict. Aconflict, however,which when satisfactorily addressed, serves intheendtomotivate aperson toremove himorherself even more from themasses, even
