great anger, love, jealousy, hate, and grief, just what the
poison is, and the modus operandi of its production, have
never been satisfactorily explained until made clear by the
Philosophy of Toxemia. The pathology of jealousy
Shakespeare knew we ll, as evidenced by the words he put
into the mouths of some of his characters.

   Excessive emotion —jealousy, for example, or great
anger — precipitates a profound enervation, which inhibits
elimination. This floods the blood with toxin, and brings on
a malignant Toxemia in the form of toxin drunkenness,
which in people of a belligerent nature causes them to run amuck. Murder, several murders, are sometimes
committed. In those with more consideration for others —
those with less self -love—suicide ends the p sychological
storm.

   Jealousy and unrequited love, when not malignant —
developing in a viscious, unmoral subject —in time
undermine the constitution by keeping up a gradually
increasing state of enervation and Toxemia. Catarrhal
inflammations and ulcerat ions get better and worse, with no
hope of final recovery until the causes of enervation are
overcome namely, enervating habits of mind and body, of
which jealousy is chief.

   Overeating. —Overeating is a common and universal
enervating habit; eating too  much fat —cream, butter, fat
meats, oils, rich pastries, sweets; eating too often; eating
between meals, and checking digestion with water -drinking
between meals.

   Food -inebriety is more common than alcohol -inebriety.
The subconscious is as busy as a h ive of bees substituting,
antidoting, and in reparation work; substituting one
stimulating excess for another —demanding whiskey,
tobacco, opium, etc., for gluttonous eating; thrills, shocks,
sensual excesses for food -poisoning. Ungratified sense -demands ar e appeased by food excesses or other stimulants;
and when nature is balked in her demands, the victim runs
amuck.

   A French sheep -herder’s daughter, being opposed by her
father in marrying a lover, killed the parent while he slept
by their campfire. A short time after the tragedy some men
came upon the camp and discovered the girl eating her
father’s heart, which she had cut out and roasted in the fire.
When surprised at her cannibalistic feast, she held up what
was left of the heart, and, with a sardon ic laugh, declared:
“He broke my heart, and I am eating his.”

   Only a short time ago the overwrought nerves of a jazz -
and alcohol -crazed girl forced her to kill her mother
because the latter undertook to oppose her in the
gratification of her subconsci ous demands for more
stimulation.

   When enervation and Toxemia have reached the stage of
inebriety seen in the two girls mentioned above, civil and
moral laws have abdicated to the subconscious laws, which,
like cosmic law and order, are unmoral, but r un true to
necessity.

    Psychological, like physical, cyclones are out of the
regular order, yet they are obeying the laws of their nature.
They have no scruples to gainsay, but tear through order as
ruthlessly as fiends.

   Every human being should know that such phenomena
are potential to him, and that the road to such catastrophes
is enervating habits.

   Prohibition is a beautiful ideal, but it is palliating one
social disease while it is building a greater.

   What mother would not rather hav e her son brought home
from the corner grog -shop drunk than see him escorted to
jail hand -cuffed to an officer?

   Enervation and Toxemia focused on the brain bring out
neurotic states, with all kinds of symptom -complexes.
Drunkenness substitutes for ban k robbery and other
outlawry. So long as food -drunkenness retains its prestige
with the professions —prescribed by doctors; babbled to us
Sundays, and deciding our brawls on Monday —it will take
more than statutes to enforce law and order. Most of our
laws a re made while the law -makers are drunk on food and
tobacco.
    Drunkenness and crime of all kinds are vicarious toxin
eliminations —crises of Toxemia. Enforcing temperance
and control of crime must fail In object —namely, causing
people to be temperate and  law-abiding. The reason should
be obvious to the student of nature. Our wants are based on
our subconscious needs; sentiment and ethics have nothing
to do with it. Our subconscious is not moral nor immoral; it
belongs to the Great Cosmos, which is systema tic, perfect
in order, but unmoral. Intemperance of any kind establishes
a want which, if not satisfied in the usual way, will turn to
other ways of being satisfied. The surgeon, laws, and
anodynes perhaps relieve effects, but cures are based on
removing c auses. Legislatures are quack doctors. Self -
control is the only cure. To develop self -control, the need
must be understood.

   The gluttonous build putrefaction in the bowels. Nerve -
energy is used up in resisting systemic infection. The
supply of blood t o the surface of the body for purposes of
warmth —radiation —resisting cold and heat, is called to the
mucous membrane of the gastro -intestinal canal to
neutralize the septic material that is about to enter the
system through the absorbents. The mucous membr ane
becomes turgid with blood, establishing a mucorrhea
(excessive secretion of mucus). This is what we call
catarrh. This secretion mechanically obstructs absorption of putrescence, and also antidotes the poison by bringing the
antibodies from the blood.

   A battle -royal is on all the time in the intestines of the
gluttonous. The subconscious musters all the help possible,
and when the system is drained of autogenerated antidotes,
the victim is sent by his subconscious to find alcohol,
tobacco, coffee, tea, condiments, and more food. Moral
preachments, and prohibitory laws passed by Solons drunk
on toxin. bowel putrescence, and tobacco, like all
monstrosities, are abortions.

   Insatiable desire for food and stimulants means an
enervated state of the b ody brought on from
overindulgence —overstimulation.

   A driving desire for food three times a day means
enervation; trouble is only a little farther on. The wise will
get busy and correct appetites.

   Perverted appetites are built by overeating; eati ng rich
food until enjoyment is lost for staple or plain foods;
excessive use of stimulants —alcohol, tobacco, coffee, tea;
excessive use of butter, salt, pepper, and rich dressings,
eating without a real hunger (real hunger will take the
plainest foods wit h a relish); eating when sick or uncomfortable; eating at all hours, between meals; eating
until uncomfortable.

   Gossips are always slanderers, and slanderers are always
and forever potential liars. If they do not know that they are
broadcasting lies, they are criminally careless in not
endeavoring to find whether the tale they gossip is true or
not. Gossip enervates the gossiper.

   Gossips are always enervated, for they live in fear of
being discovered. Their secretions are always acid. They
are inc lined to develop pyorrhea and mucous -membrane
infections. They are slow to recover from catarrhal crises of
Toxemia.

   Gossips are empty -headed slaves to their habits of slander
and spite; they are malignant parasites that feed upon
carrion. They are th e lowest type of criminals; hell
monsters that kill with their breath. They often die of
cancer.

   Sycophancy. —Flatterers look like friends, as wolves like
dogs. (Byron.) He hurts me most who lavishly commends.
(Churchill.)

    A real sycophant, like all people who are not honest, lives
a life that enervates, and which nature condemns early.

   Dishonesty. —Dishonesty eventually hardens the arteries,
and cancer ends a miserable existence.

   Religiosity. —Morbidly pious,  yet practicing the foregoing
habits and ending in premature death.

   A saving religion, Christian, Jewish or Mohammedan, is
one free from mental and physical habits that
overstimulate, enervate and intoxicate.

   If Toxemic get rid of enervating habits. Cures —prayers,
drugs, surg ery—all honest or dishonest cures —will not

 What are the chances that these cir -
cumstances are going to coincide with our personal expectations and demands?
     The only reason we are not at peace and filled with joy now is that cir -
cumstances do not conform to our idea of how they should be. One who
126take refuge in the now
understands this aligns what they want with what they have, rather than try -
ing to conform what they have to what they want.
     Suffering is never imposed on us; it is our own activity of seeking and
resisting. Happiness can never be acquired by us; it is our own nature.

there are no problems

Circumstances never announce themselves as problematic. They simply
present themselves. From the perspective of awareness, there are situations;
for the ego, there are problems. It is our resistance that turns a situation into
a problem, that turns our innate peace into suffering. And it is the withdra -
wal of this resistance that reveals the underlying peace. For the ego there is
suffering; for awareness there is peace.
     Awareness does not negotiate experience. Its nature is simply to welcome
whatever arises, allow whatever exists and let go of whatever vanishes.
     And just as space is never harmed or destroyed by anything that takes
place within it, so we, awareness, are never hurt or overwhelmed by any -
thing that takes place in experience. We, awareness, are open to all experi -
ence, allowing all experience without resistance, defenceless and yet
indestructible.
     This openness without resistance to all experience is not something we,
as a person, need practise, because it is our nature, just as the empty space
of a room does not need to practise allowing whatever appears within it.
Openness without resistance is what we are, not what we do.
     Resistance to what is appears in the form of a single thought: ‘I don’t want
what is present; I want what is not present’. All suffering is caused by that
thought alone. As soon as that thought rises up in between our self and our
experience of the world, our innate happiness is veiled and suffering ensues.
     In the absence of any resistance to experience, the peace and happiness
that is our very nature simply shines by itself. This openness without resis -
tance to all experience is not a state of the mind. It is the natural condition
of the mind in the absence of seeking and resisting. Happiness is the nature
of the mind; suffering is a state of the mind.
     It is only the extent to which we open ourself unreservedly and uncon -
ditionally to any experience that governs our happiness. Our true nature of
peace and joy is always present within our own being; it is our own being.
127you are the happiness you seek
It is our own resistance to experience, in the form of thinking and feeling,
that closes us off from the ever-present background of our innate joy, just as
clouds obscure the blue sky.

What is it that causes this opening of the cloud cover? What is it that gives
us access to this ever-present background of happiness? Simply our openness
without resistance to the current situation.
     Every moment of happiness is a window in our experience onto the ever-
present background of our essential being, whose nature is happiness itself.
     The only reason it is not fully felt by everyone all the time is the single
thought that dictates that circumstances should be other than they are right
now, that they should conform to our preconceived idea of them.
     We have allowed a single thought to steal our happiness. It is that thought
alone that stands between each of us and the innate peace and joy that lives
in our hearts, or rather that is the very heart of us. We are free at every mo -
ment to choose happiness in spite of circumstances, not because of them.
     The nature of our being is peace and joy itself. All that is necessary in
order to access our self and, as a result, its innate peace and joy, is to come
back to our own being again and again, and to stand as that in the face of all
experience.
     When we become accustomed to knowing and feeling ourself as the pres -
ence of awareness, problems cease. Or rather, our resistance  to problems ceases
and, as a result, the so-called problem itself is no longer experienced as such.
It is experienced as simply a situation to be faced with openness and equa -
nimity, thereby giving it the best possible chance of a harmonious resolution
for all parties involved.
     Situations that were once met with resistance or emotional reactivity are
now welcomed as an opportunity to understand the extent to which we have
invested our happiness in objective experience. Instead of frustrating our
search for happiness in the world, such situations cooperate with the revel -
ation of the peace and happiness that is the very nature of our being.

There are some situations that I find so hurtful that I cannot stay open to them
or to the person involved. Should I just accept such situations?
128take refuge in the now
It is important to recognise whether our response to such a situation arises
on behalf of truth, love and justice or on behalf of a hurt self. If the latter,
then it is legitimate to take whatever action may be appropriate to bring in -
telligence and love to bear on the situation. However, every time we react
emotionally to a person or situation, we betray the fact that our happiness is
invested in them. In doing so, we are, without at first realising it,
strengthening the power that objective experience has over us, thereby alien -
ating ourself from our innate peace and joy.
     Even if our reaction were to bring about the desired result in the short
term, we would have strengthened the underlying feeling from which it
came, and ultimately the separate self or ego on whose behalf that feeling
arose, thus perpetuating the tendency to react in the same way to a similar
situation in future.
     Unaware that our suffering is entirely our own activity, we will project its
cause onto the person or situation. It is for this reason that, in spite of our ef -
forts, we find ourself facing the same problematic situations over and over
again in life. It is not the situation itself that is problematic; it is our response
to it that is as such. Ultimately there are no problems; there are just situations.
     However, until this is clear, apparently problematic situations will con -
tinue to occur in our life, provoking and testing us until we have understood
their message, namely, that we should withdraw from people and circum -
stances the expectation or demand that they be a source of happiness.
     When this has been understood, we cease using the world for the sake of
our happiness and start using our happiness for the sake of the world. And
just as the world previously appeared to us in the form of circumstances that
mirrored our inner state of resistance, so now the world will realign itself
with our new attitude of openness.
     In fact, the world has not changed. The filter of seeking and resisting
through which we previously perceived the world and negotiated our re -
sponse to it has simply become more transparent, and as a result, the world
appears in a new light.

becoming established in and as our true nature

Ever since I first became aware of awareness in the background of my experience,
I seem to travel back and forth between it and my thoughts and feelings in the
129you are the happiness you seek
foreground. This gives me moments of respite from the suffering that I used
to experience almost continually, but I long for lasting peace.

Imagine a woman who lives in a small apartment on a noisy street in the city
and commutes to and from work every day on public transport. After a busy
and exhausting week, she drives a couple of hours into the countryside, where
she has a small cottage, and enjoys a peaceful, relaxing weekend. On Sunday
night she returns to the city and the cycle is repeated, week in, week out,
back and forth from her stressful life in her apartment to the peace and quiet
of her cottage.
     One day she has simply had enough: she requests permission from her
employer to work from home, sells her apartment and moves into her cot -
tage. Her life ceases to oscillate from the stress and anxiety of life in the city
to the peace and quiet of life in the country. She continues to work, and is
as productive as ever, but without leaving the peace of her home.
     In the same way, we seem for a while to travel back and forth between
the turbulence of our thoughts, feelings, sensations and perceptions in the
foreground of experience, and the inherently peaceful and unconditionally
fulfilled presence of awareness in the background.
     However, in time, our true nature of awareness will cease being some -
thing that we seem to visit from time to time and will be understood and
felt simply to be what we are. T o be knowingly the presence of awareness
will become our natural condition, and no effort will be required either to
return there or to maintain it. It will become our new identity. We move in.
We live there, as that.

The only reason why resting in and as our being may initially require some
effort is due to the previously unnoticed habit of almost continuously and
exclusively losing our self in, and identifying our self with, objective experi -
ence. It is only the initial attempt we


lett’s	argument	that	“specific
components	of	the	diet	can	be	modified”	to	the	benefit	of	one’s	health.	This	is
precisely	what	is	wrong	with	this	area	of	research.	In	fact,	if	the	Nurses’Health	Study	shows	nothing	else,	it	demonstrates	that	modifying	the	intake	of
one	nutrient	at	a	time,	without	questioning	whole	dietary	patterns,	does	not
confer	significant	health	benefits.	Women	who	tinker	with	fat,	while
maintaining	a	near-carnivorous	diet,	do	not	have	a	lower	breast	cancer	risk.
This	gets	to	the	heart	of	reductionism	in	science.	As	long	as	scientists
study	highly	isolated	chemicals	and	food	components,	and	take	the
information	out	of	context	to	make	sweeping	assumptions	about	complex	diet
and	disease	relationships,	confusion	will	result.	Misleading	news	headlines
about	this	or	that	food	chemical	and	this	or	that	disease	will	be	the	norm.	The
more	impressive	message	about	the	benefits	of	broad	dietary	change	will	be
muted	as	long	as	we	focus	on	relatively	trivial	details.
On	occasions,	when	our	paths	have	crossed,	Professor	Willett	and	I	have
had	discussions	about	the	findings	on	fat	as	they	relate	to	the	China	Study	and
the	Nurses’	Health	Study.	I	have	always	made	the	same	point:	whole	foods,
plant-based	diets,	naturally	low	in	fat,	are	not	included	in	the	Nurses’	Health
Study	cohort,	and	that	it	is	these	types	of	diets	that	are	the	most	beneficial	for
our	health.	Professor	Willett	has	said	to	me,	in	response,	on	more	than	one
occasion,	“You	may	be	right,	Colin,	but	people	don’t	want	to	go	there.”	This
comment	has	disturbing	implications.
Scientists	should	not	be	ignoring	ideas	just	because	we	perceive	that	the
public	does	not	want	to	hear	them.	Too	often	during	my	career,	I	have	heard
comments	that	seem	to	be	more	of	an	attempt	to	please	the	public	than	to
engage	in	an	open,	honest	debate,	wherever	it	may	take	us.	This	is	wrong.	The
role	of	science	in	a	society	is	to	observe,	to	ask	questions,	to	form	and	test
hypotheses	and	to	interpret	the	findings	without	bias—not	to	kowtow	to
people’s	perceived	desires.	Consumers	have	the	ultimate	choice	of	whether	to
integrate	our	findings	into	their	lifestyles,	but	we	owe	it	to	them	to	give	them
the	best	information	possible	with	which	to	make	that	decision	and	not	decide
for	them.	It	is	they	who	paid	for	this	research	and	it	is	only	they	who	have	the
right	to	decide	what	to	do	with	it.
The	perception	in	the	scientific	community	that	the	public	only	wants
magic	bullets	and	simple	dietary	tinkering	is	overrated.	I	have	learned	in	my
public	lectures	that	there	is	more	interest	in	diet/lifestyle	change	than	the
academic	community	is	willing	to	admit.
This	method	of	investigating	details	out	of	context,	what	I	call	reduction-
ism,	and	trying	to	judge	complex	relationships	from	the	results	is	deadly.
	It	is
even	more	damaging	than	the	misbehavior	of	the	small	minority	of	scientists	I
discussed	in	chapter	thirteen.	Unfortunately,	this	flawed	way	of	investigating
nutrition	has	become	the	norm.	As	a	consequence,	honest,	hardworking,	well-
intentioned	scientists	around	the	world	are	forced	to	make	judgments	aboutwhole	dietary	effects	on	the	basis	of	narrowly	focused	studies	on	individual
nutrients.	The	greatest	danger	is	that	reductionism	science,	standing	naked
from	its	larger	environment,	has	come	to	be	the	gold	standard.	Indeed,	I	know
many	researchers	who	would	even	say	that	this	is	what	defines	“good”
science.
These	problems	are	especially	egregious	in	the	investigation	of	vitamin
supplements.	As	I	noted	at	the	beginning	of	the	chapter,	I	spent	over	three
years	during	the	early	history	of	the	nutrient	supplement
business	developing
testimony	for	the	Federal	Trade	Commission	and	the	National	Academy	of
Sciences	in	their	court	case	against	General	Nutrition,	Inc.	I	argued	that
specific	health	benefits	for	chronic	diseases	could	not	be	claimed	for	isolated
vitamins	and	minerals	in	supplement	form.	For	this,	I	took	a	lot	of	heat	from
my	colleagues	who	believed	otherwise.	Now,	more	than	fifteen	years	later,
after	hundreds	of	millions	of	dollars	of	research	funding	and	billions	of
dollars	of	consumer	spending,	we	now	have	this	conclusion	from	a	recent
survey	of	the	evidence:
The	U.S.	Preventive	Services	Task	Force	(USPSTF)	concludes	that	the
evidence	is	insufficient	to	recommend	for	or	against	the	use	of
supplements	of	A,	C	or	E;	multivitamins	with	folic	acid;	or	antioxidant
combinations	for	the	prevention	of	cancer	or	cardiovascular	disease.

the	limitations	of	reductionist	research?	Scientific	investigations	of	the	effects
of	single	nutrients	on	complex	diseases	have	little	or	no	meaning	when	the

 kamik aze pilots who had strafed on e’ s ship,
killed one’ s comrades, and left many wounded and crippled casualties.
On the other side, Americans were the ones who dropped the atomic
bombs t hat killed thousands of civilians. Subsequent to the cessation of
hostilities, there was a strange, a lmost blanket-like acceptance that it was
all over and that it had all ‘just been about war ’. Former combatants even
became close personal friends and periodically visited each other ’ s
families. T o this day, the survivors still commemorate great battles
together.
Reluctance to for give is a consequence not only of unwillingness to let
go of the ego ju ice of perceived injustice but also the illusion th at others
do not ‘deserve’  it. In reality, it is the for giver and not the for g iven who
benefits the most. The purpose  of the example is to demonstrate that
even the most severe conditions can be transcended, but only by an act of
the will and the willingness t o surrender the nursing of ha tred and
revenge.
One might ask h ow could such a  saintly transformation even be possible,
given the horrific circumstances on both sides, including imprisonment
in POW  camps, starvation, personal torture, gross cruelty, and carnage.
In actuality, and psychologically, it really could not be done by the
ego/mind at all because it lacks the necessary power when it is c aught up
in the ener gy field of hate, which calibrates at only 30. Therefore, the
transformative source of power  cannot originate from the mind or the
personality calle d the personal ‘I’. The necessary power resides in the
nonlinear quality of consciousness termed the ‘W ill’, which alone can
open the gates to the power necessary to dissolve the ego’ s positionality.
By invit ation, the Holy Spirit tra nsforms comprehension by virtue of the
presence of the healing power o f Grace. What the ego cannot lift with all
its m ight is like  a feather to the Grace of God. As a consequence of the
process of transformation, not o nly are the views of others transformed
from hateful to benign, but the view of self is also transformed.Guilt-ridden cul tures commonly have a negative view of God as being
judgmental, vindictive, angry, and punitive via natural disasters, which
are c ontextualized as punishme nts for wickedness that stem from God.
Personal judgment is based on p erception that is reinforced by b elief and
prior pro gramming, all of which are held in place by the pay-of f of the
negative ener gies of the ego. T he ego just ‘loves’ suf fering a ‘wrong’,
being the martyr, being misund erstood, and being the endless victim of
life’ s vic issitudes. It thereby gets an enormous pay-of f, not only from the
positionality its elf but also f rom sympathy, self-pity, entitlements,
importance, or being ‘center stage’ in which the self is the hero or
heroine of the melodrama. The ego hoards ‘slights’ and injuries, nurses
‘hurt feelings’, and stockpiles grievances in this inner melod rama of
injustice collecti ng. T o this end, the collective ego milks ‘right s’, which
can be summoned up and ration alized for any positionality or extremist
viewpoint. The battle over ‘rights’ is the mainstream of the media and
contentious soci al strife termed ‘politics’, for which truth is willingly
sacrificed for gain and for which millions die.
Inner examinatio n and self-honesty reveal the secret delights the ego gets
from the nurturance of these ju stifications and protestations. The ego’ s
illusion is that th is process is se lf-nurturing, whereas, in actuality, it has
exactly the opposite ef fect.
In re leasing this vicious cycle, it is well to view the totality of human
suf fering and recontextualize the events from the level of com passion.
As the Buddha p ointed out, being mortal automatically entails s uf fering,
which is why he taught to seek Enlightenment in order to preclude that
karmically determined recurrence. When one willingly lets a hated
perpetrator ‘of f the hook’ by for giveness, it is not that person who is
taken of f the hook but oneself. As the Buddha also said, there is no
necessity to punish or get even with others because they will bring
themselves down by their own hand.
The public often expresses concern that the guilty might go unpunished.
Anyone familia r with the reali ty of consciousness and spiritual truth
realizes that no such thing is possible. Everyone is accountab le to the
universe and is subject to Divine Justice by the very dynamics of the
universe itself. Like a cork in the sea, each soul floats to the level of its
own buoyancy, which is not due to some arbitrary act by the sea. There is
no hand on the tiller but one’ s own, which is the total freedom accordedto life by God. No man falls but by his own hand. Even the supposed
‘accidental’ occurrence is merel y a perception. There are no accidents in
the universe, nor are they even a  possibility. What it really mea ns is that
they are unpredictable or inco mprehensible to the linear ego and its
limitation to the Newtonian paradigm of cause and ef fect (cal. level 450).
In th e he adlines twenty years ago was the example of an airpla ne flying
at a high altitud e when part of the fuselage flew of f and just on e person
out of the hund reds of passengers on board was sucked ou t. People
congregate in groups because t hey are aligned with the same  attractor
field. When fish at the bottom of the sea swoop about in schools or birds
fly in flocks, each one is where they are, not as a result of their alignment
with the others but because they are all attuned to exactly the same
attractor field. Each one, individually, is following a powerful m agnetic-
like field that in turn is subject to the next higher attractor fiel d, and so
on up to Divinity. (The above passage calibrates at 995.)

The Politics of the Ego/Hate.
The dua listically structured ego propagates itself by a positionality that
tends to see everything in te rms of perpetrator/victim (the classic
relativistic Karl  Marx error). By virtue of an arbitrary positio nality, it
splits events into opposites, and the consequent blame that occurs may be
directed inwardl y as guilt or projected outwardly as hate and paranoia.
Thus, th e ego is judgmental and unwittingly becomes its own victim. If it
hates, it feels unconsciously guilty for violating truth and may repress the
accumulated guilt, which adds more ener gy to the projected hatred. As
will be discusse d in a later chapter, this also contributes to the level of
fear, for what the ego projects out, it unconsciously expects to return.
Despite its devices, the ego cann ot escape consequences, whether it turns
the attac k within or without. The  inherent fallacy of ego position  is that it
is no t actually the real person who feels guilt or hate, but only  the ego
itself. Th e real Self is unaf fected because truth is immune to fals ity. Thus
the hate/guilt game is operationally just internal politics in which
dif ferent voices seek to dominate and win over one’ s allegiance.
The ego is envious of that which it intuits as being superi or to its
limitations and thus readily hates and denounces what it cannot
understand. It has a vested interest in making wrong or denigrating whatit canno t comprehend. Thus, the skeptic subtly hates spiritual truth or
higher consciousness and its values (love, truth, Divinity, beauty). Hatred
for purity or aes thetics is expressed by obscenity and gross vulgarity, as
well as by des ecration (destr oy the Pieta, de file femininity, insult
erudition, defame integrity, etc.).
Much purported criticism (masquerading as ‘free speech’) is thinly-
disguised, envious hatred accompanied by rationalized justification in
order to  diminish guilt. Ideological hatred fuels public debate on almost
every topic or issue in current society, from which the ego derives what it
perceives as gain in the form of attention. Hatred often takes the  form of
projecting guilt via blame.
Analogously, the politics of the ego have their counterpart in society,
which is  very preoccupied with blame. While individuals do pla y a part,
unfortunate events will often represent a failure of the underlying social
process itself due to policies tha t are innately fallacious. While p unishing
the guil ty culprits satisfies the public, it usually shortchanges society
because the resolution is discovered by examining the underlying
process itself.
Guilt that stems from some p ast poor judgment is overcome by the
devices of reparation, confessio n, and moral rededication, as well as by
compensation from good works (the process of ‘undoing’). Humility


 If there is awareness in you,
you will be able to recognize that voice in your head for what it is: an old
thought, conditioned by the past. If there is awareness in you, you no
longer need to believe in every thought you think. It's an old thought, no
more. A wareness means Presence, and only Presence can dissolve the
unconscious past in you.
If you think you are so enlightened, Ram Dass said, go and spend a week
with your parents. That is good advice. The relationship with your
parents is not only the primordial relationship hat sets the tone for all
subsequent relationships, it is also a good test for your degree of
Presence. The more shared past there is in a relationship, the more
present you need to be; otherwise, you will be forced to relive the past
again and again.A New Earth

If you have young children, give them help, guidance, and protection to
the best f your ability, but even more important, give them space space to
be. They come into this world through you, but they are not yours. The
belief I know what's best for you may be true when they are very young,
bu the older they get, the less true it becomes. The more expectations
you have of how their life should unfold, the more you are in your mind
instead of being present for them. Eventually, they will make mistakes,
and they will experience some form of suf fering, as all humans do. In
fact, they may be mistakes only from your perspective. What to you is a
mistake may be exactly what your children need to do or experience.
Give them as much help and guidance as you can, but realize that you
may also at times have to allow them to make mistakes, especially as
they begin to reach adulthood. At times, you may also have to allow
them to suf fer. Suf fering may come to them out of the blue or it may
come as the consequence of their own mistakes.
W ouldn't it be wonderful if you could spare them from all suf fering? No,
it wouldn't. They would not evolve as human beings and would remain
shallow, identified with the external form of things. Suf fering drives you
deeper. The paradox is that suf fering is caused by identification with
form and erodes identification with form. A lot of it is caused by the ego,
although eventually suf fering destroys the ego but not until you suf fer
consciously.
Humanity is destined to go beyond suf fering, but not in the way the ego
thinks. One of the ego's many erroneous assumptions, one of its many
deluded thoughts is I should not have to suf fer. Sometimes the thought
gets transferred to someone close to you: My child should not have to
suf fer. That thought itself lies at the root of suf fering. Suf fering has a
noble purpose: the evolution of consciousness and the burning up of the
ego. the man on the Cross is an archetypal image. He is every man and
every woman. As long as you resist suf fering, it is a slow process
because the resistance creates more ego to burn up. When you acceptsuf fering, however, there is an acceleration of that process which is
brought about by the fact that you suf fer consciously. Y ou can accept
suf fering for yourself, or you can accept it for someone else, such as
your child or parent. In the midst of conscious suf fering, there is already
the transmutation. The fire of suf fering becomes the light of
consciousness.
The ego says, I shouldn't have to suf fer, and that thought makes you
suf fer so much more. It is a distortion of the truth, which is always
paradoxical. The truth is that you need to say yes to suf fering before you
can transcend it.A New Earth
C O N S C I O U S  P A R E N T I N G
Many children harbor hidden anger and resentment toward their parents
and often the cause is inauthenticity in the relationship. The child has a
deep longing for the parent to be there as a human being, not as a role, no
matter how conscientiously that role is being played. you may be doing
all the right things and the best you can for your child, but even doing the
best you can is not enough. In fact, doing is never enough if you neglect
Being. The ego knows nothing of being but believes you will eventually
be saved by doing. If you are in the grip of the ego, you believe that by
doing more and more you will eventually accumulate enough doings to
make yourself feel complete at some point in the future. Y ou won't. Y ou
will only
lose yourself in doing. The entire civilization is losing itself in doing that
is not rooted in Being and thus becomes futile.
How do you bring Being into the life of a busy family, into the
relationship with your child? The key is to give your child attention.
There are two kinds of attention. One we might call form?based
attention. The other is formless attention. Form?based attention is always
connected in some way with doing or evaluation. Have you done your
homework? Eat your dinner. T idy up your room. Brush your teeth. Do
this. Stop doing that. Hurry up, get ready.
What's the next thing we have to do? This question pretty much
summarizes what family life is like in many homes. Form?based
attention is of course necessary and has its place, but if that's all there is
in the relationship with your child, then the most vital dimension is
missing and Being becomes completely obscured by doing, by the cares
of the world, as Jesus puts it. Formless attention is inseparable from the
dimension of Being. How does it work?
As you look at, listen to, touch, or help your child with this or that, you
are alert, still, completely present, not wanting anything other than that
moment as it is. in this way, you make room for Being. In that moment,if you are present, you are not a father or mother. Y ou are the alertness,
the stillness, the Presence that is listening, looking, touching, even
speaking. Y ou are the Being behind the doing.A New Earth
R E C O G N I Z I N G  Y O U R  C H I L D
Y ou are a human being. What does that mean? Mastery of life is not a
question of control, but of finding a balance between human and Being.
Mother, father, husband, wife, young, old, the roles you play, the
functions you fulfill, whatever you do all that belongs to the human
dimension. It has its place and needs to be honored, but in itself it is not
enough for a fulfilled, truly meaningful relationship or life. Human alone
is never enough, no matter how hard you try or what you achieve. Then
there is Being. it is found in the still, alert presence of Consciousness
itself, the Consciousness that you are. Human is form. Being is formless.
Human and Being are not separate but interwoven.
In the human dimension, you are unquestionably superior to your child.
Y ou are bigger, stronger, know more, can do more. If that dimension is
all you know, you will feel superior to your child, if only unconsciously.
And you will make your child feel inferior, if only unconsciously. There
is no equality between you and your child because there is only form in
your relationship, and in form, you are of course not equal. Y ou may
love your child, but your live will be human only, that is to say,
conditional, possessive, intermittent. Only beyond form, in Being, are
you equal, and only When you find the formless dimension in yourself
can there be true love in that relationship. The Presence that you are, the
timeless I Am, recognizes itself in another, and the other, the child in this
case, feels loved, that is to say, recognized.
T o love is to recognize yourself in another. The other's otherness then
stands revealed as an illusion pertaining to the purely human realm, the
realm of form. The longing for love that is in every child is the longing
to be recognized, not on the level of form, but on the level of Being. If
parents honor only the human dimension of the child but neglect Being,
the child will sense that the relationship is unfulfilled, that something
absolutely vital is missing, and there will be a buildup of pain in the
child and sometimes unconscious resentment toward the parents. Whydon't you recognize me? This is what the pain or resentment seems to be
saying.
When another recognizes you, that recognition draws the dimension of
Being more fully into this world through both of you. That is the love
that redeems the world. I have been speaking of this with specific
reference to the relationship with your child, but it equally applies, of
course, to all relationships.
It has been said God is love but that is not absolutely correct. God is the
One Life in and beyond the countless forms of life. Love implies duality:
lover and beloved, subject and object. so love is the recognition of
oneness in the world of duality. This is the birth of God into the world


coming to you that the situation seems to be getting worse. The
more you think about it, the more upset you get.
You may have experienced attracting like thoughts when you lis-
tened to a song, and then found that you couldn't get that song
out of your head. The song just kept playing over and over in your
mind. When you listened to that song, even though you may not
have realized it, you gave your full attention and focus of thought
to it. As you did that, you were powerfully attracting more like
thoughts of that song, and so the law of attraction moved into
action and delivered more thoughts of that song, over and over
again.
JOHN ASSARAF
Our job as humans is to hold on to the thoughts of what we
want, make it absolutely clear in our minds what we want,
and from that we start to invoke one of the greatest laws in the
Universe, and that's the law of attraction. You become what
you think about most but you also attract what you think
about most. The Secret Revealed 9
Your life right now is a reflection of your past thoughts. That in-
cludes all the great things, and all the things you consider not so
great. Since you attract to you what you think about most, it is easy

If you see it in your mind, you're going to hold it in your
hand.
If you can think about what you want in your mind, and make that
your dominant thought, you will bring it into your life.

And that principle can be summed up in three simple
words. Thoughts become things!
Through this most powerful law, your thoughts become the things
in your life. Your thoughts become things! Say this over to yourself
and let it seep into your consciousness and your awareness. Your
thoughts become things!
JOHN ASSARAF
What most people don't understand is that a thought has
a frequency. We can measure a thought. And so if you're 10 The Secret
thinking that thought over and over and over again, if you're
imagining in your mind having that brand new car, having
the money that you need, building that company, finding your
soul mate... if you're imagining what that looks like, you're
emitting that frequency on a consistent basis.
DR, JOE VITALE
Thoughts are sending out that magnetic signal that is
drawing the parallel back to you.
"The predominant thought or the mental
attitude is the magnet, and the law is that like
attracts like, consequently, the mental attitude
will invariably attract such conditions as
correspond to its nature."
Thoughts are magnetic, and thoughts have a frequency. As you
think, those thoughts are sent out into the Universe, and they
magnetically attract all like things that are on the same frequency.
Everything sent out returns to the source. And that source is
You.
Think of it this way: we understand that a television station's trans-
mission tower broadcasts via a frequency, which is transformed
into pictures on your television. Most of us don't really understand
how it works, but we know that each channel has a frequency, The Secret Revealed 11
and when we tune into that frequency we see the pictures on our
television. We choose the frequency by selecting the channel, and
we then receive the pictures broadcast on that channel. If we want
to see different pictures on our television, we change the channel
and rune into a new frequency.
You are a human transmission tower, and you are more powerful
than any television tower created on earth. You are the most pow
erful transmission tower in the Universe. Your transmission cre
ates your life and it creates the world. The frequency you transmit
reaches beyond cities, beyond countries, beyond the world. It re
verberates throughout the entire Universe. And you are transmit
ting that frequency with your thoughts!
The pictures you receive from the transmission of your thoughts
are not on a television screen in your living room, they are the pic-
tures of your life! Your thoughts create the frequency, they attract
like things on that frequency, and then they are broadcast back to
you as your life pictures. If you want to change anything in your
life, change the channel and change the frequency by changing
your thoughts.
"The vibrations of mental forces are the
finest and consequently the most powerful in
existence." 12 The Secret
BOB PROCTOR
See yourself living in abundance and you will attract it. It
works every time, with every person.
As you think of yourself living in abundance, you are powerfully
and consciously determining your life through the law of attrac-
tion. It's that easy. But then the most obvious question becomes,
"Why isn't everybody living the life of their dreams?"
The only reason why people do not have what they want is be-
cause they are thinking more about what they don't want than
what they do want. Listen to your thoughts, and listen to the
words you are saying. The law is absolute and there are no mis-
takes.
An epidemic worse than any plague that humankind has ever
seen has been raging for centuries. It is the "don't want" epidemic. JOHN ASSARAF
Here's the problem. Most people are thinking about what they
don't want, and they're wondering why it shows up over and
over again. The Secret Revealed 13
People keep this epidemic alive when they predominantly think,
speak, act, and focus on what they "don't want." But this is the
generation that will change history, because we are receiving the
knowledge that can free us of this epidemic! It begins with you,,
and you can become a pioneer of this new thought movement by
simply thinking and speaking about what you want.
BOB DOYLE
The law of attraction doesn't care whether you perceive
something to be good or bad, or whether you don't want it or
whether you do want it. It's res-ponding to your thoughts. So
if you're looking at a mountain of debt, feeling terrible about
it, that's the signal you're putting out into the Universe. "I
feel really bad because of all this debt I've got." You're just
affirming it to yourself. You feel it on every level of your
being. That's what you're going to get more of.
The law of attraction is a law of nature. It is impersonal and it does
not see good things or bad things. It is receiving your thoughts and
reflecting back to you those thoughts as your life experience. The law
of attraction simply gives you whatever it is you are thinking about.
LISA NICHOLS
AUTHORAND PERSONAL EMPOWERMENT
ADVOCATE
The law of attraction is really obedient. When you think of the
things that you want, and you focus on them with all of your
intention, then the law of attraction will give you exactly 14 The Secret
what you want, every time. When you focus on the things
that you don't want — "I don't want to be late, I don't want
to be late"—the law of attraction doesn't hear that you don't
want it. It manifests the things that you're thinking of and
so it's going to show up over and over and over again. The
law of attraction is not biased to wants or don't wants. When
you focus on something, no matter what it happens to be, you
really are calling that into existence.
When you focus your thoughts on something you want, and you
hold that focus, you are in that moment summoning what you
want with the mightiest power in the Universe. The law of attrac-
tion doesn't compute "don't" or "not" or "no," or any other words
of negation. As you speak words of negation, this is what the law
of attraction is receiving:
"I don't want to spill something on this outfit."
"I want to spill something on this outfit and I want to spill
more things."
"I don't want a bad haircut."
"I want bad haircuts."
"I don't want to be delayed."
"I want delays."
"I don't want that person to be rude to me."
"I want that person and more people to be rude to me."
"I don't want the restaurant to give away our table."
"I want restaurants to give away our tables." The Secret Revealed 15
"I don't want these shoes to hurt."
"I want shoes to hurt."
"I can't handle all this work."
"I want more work than I can handle."
"I don't want to catch the flu."
"I want the flu and I want to catch more things."
"I don't want to argue."
"I want more arguing."
"Don't speak to me like that."
"I want you to speak to me like that and I want other people to
speak to me like that."
The law of attraction is giving you what you are thinking about
—period!

Miche’s Green Juices
Juice any combination of the following ingredients, using cucumber,
celery, or romaine lettuce as a base. Plan to juice sixteen ounces.
Celery, cucumber, ginger, lemon
Carrot, celery, apple, lemon, gingerST ARVING TO HEAL IN SIBERIA | 21

Romaine, kale, parsley, fennel, lemon
Celery, tomato, lemon
Beet, ginger, lemon, apple, parsley (add one teaspoon of flax
oil and shake)
Be creative; invent your own combination of nearly any veggies. Note
that kale doesn’t yield much juice and that broccoli is an intense juic -
ing experience—not 101. T ry to limit fruits in the juices, as Dr. Filonov
argues that the fruit should largely be eaten, not juiced, to avoid over -
loading the pancreas. If you like, you can strain your juice into a glass Ball
jar and consume within a few minutes. Fresh juice does not keep long.
Miche’s Healing Homemade V eggie Broth
Wash and cut up one potato, one onion, two carrots, two stalks of
celery, and one beet, and add chopped parsley. Fill your pot with
spring water (non-chlorinated), and bring it to a boil for ten minutes.
Reduce the heat so that it simmers for thirty minutes. Consume only
the broth—no solids. This is a nourishing experience for the body
after dry fasting.
Spring Green V eggie Broth
Wash and cut up three cups of kale, three cups of spinach, one cup of
peas (fresh or frozen) three tablespoons of fresh turmeric root, three
tablespoons of fresh ginger root, three tablespoons of parsley, and two
tablespoons of coconut oil. Add all ingredients to a large soup pot as
you chop them. Fill the soup pot with at least two to three quarts of
fresh spring water.ST ARVING TO HEAL IN SIBERIA | 22
Copyrighted Material
Keep the heat on a low setting so that the mixture simmers for
thirty to sixty minutes, depending on your time constraints in the
kitchen. Do not bring to a boil. With a ladle, put three cups of the
mixture into your Vitamix blender, and blend until everything is
smoothly combined. Your broth will have a spring green color. You
may consume the broth for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and you may
also consume the vegetables in the broth. Do not add any additional
seasonings or oil.
Miche’s Swamp Juice
In your Vitamix, put one teaspoon or more of spirulina powder, chlorella
powder, and raw cacao powder. Add one frozen banana. (I like to buy a
bunch or two of ripe bananas, peel them, break them into pieces, and put
them in a glass storage container to freeze them for smoothies.)
Add one cup of spinach or arugula, or even cilantro, which is one of
our household favorites.
Add at least one cup of nut milk or more if desired—enough to
create your desired consistency. Blend at high speed until the mixture is
smooth; consume it immediately.
Homemade Almond Milk
Soak one to two pounds of organic raw almonds overnight in a bowl full
of spring water. In the morning, drain the water and rinse the almonds.
Place them in the Vitamix blender with two cups of spring water per
pound of almonds. You may add one to two dates to the mixture, taking
care to de-pit them. Blend the mixture on high speed until it’s smooth.
(I blend them for at least two minutes.) Place your nut milk bag over
a wide-mouth container. Gradually pour the blended almond mixture ST ARVING TO HEAL IN SIBERIA | 23
Copyrighted Material
from the Vitamix into the nut milk bag. Squeeze the bag so that the
almond milk comes out cleanly into the wide-mouth container. I like to
use glass Ball jars. Add desired spices, such as cardamom, vanilla, cinna -
mon, or nutmeg. Drop in a few grains of Himalayan sea salt if desired.
Cover the wide-mouth container with a lid and shake the almond milk
with the added spices. Consume within a few days.
Dr. Filonov’s Russian Compote “Exit Juice”
The cooks at Dr. Filonov’s center in Altai don’t use measuring cups.
The best way to make compote is to size up your pot. I encourage
you to use a small pot the first time, and add two chopped apples,
or two chopped pears, and either a few dried apricots or a handful
of blueberries and raisins. These fruits work best. Then fill up your
pot with spring water. If you have two cups of cut fruit, perhaps aim
to add four cups of water. Cover the mixture, bring it to a boil, and
then turn the temperature down to let it simmer for thirty minutes
or longer. You can even let it simmer on very low heat for a couple of
hours, as they do in Siberia. Only consume the compote juice, and
make sure that it’s served hot. This nutritious liquid is essential for
rebuilding glycogen stores during exits from extended fasts. I find
that a little goes a long way, but the Russian patients say, “The more
Kompot, the better!”
Miche’s Chopped Broom Salad
In your hand-held vegetable chopper, add the following: one half cup
of coarsely chopped red cabbage, one half cup of coarsely chopped
fennel, one half cup of coarsely chopped greens (such as kale, spin -
ach, cilantro, arugula, etc.), one medium beet, three tablespoons of ST ARVING TO HEAL IN SIBERIA | 24
Copyrighted Material
parsley, and one half of a peeled and deseeded lemon. Optionally, you
can add one half of an avocado. Tightly close the cap on the vegetable
chopper, and pull the cord at least twenty times to chop the vegeta -
bles until they are very finely grated. Enjoy plain if you’re on the first
days of your exit from fasting. Take care to therapeutically chew even
though the salad is finely chopped. If you have passed the critical
early exit period, then


 that the chemistry
involved in any physiological process must, necessarily, have
direction.
The source of this direction can be assumed safely to be the
result of the activity of the nervous system and there is plenty
of evidence in the literature to suggest that in the hypothalamic
region of the brain there are nuclear masses whic h are concerned
primarily with the onset of ovulation, its completion and, also,
that another set of neural mechanisms has equal control over the
menstrual cycle.
While experiments on ovulation in humans were going on,
parallel studies were carried out on experimental animals. With
the co-operation of the distinguished gynaecologist, Dr. Luther
Musselman, also Dr. Dorothy Barton, Dr. John Boling, and Dr.
Vincent Gott, and numerous patient and cooperative subjects,
studies were carried out on rats, in particular, on rabbits, cats,
and so on. Various stages in the oestrous cycle in animals were
found to have electro-metric correlates which are valuable indi
cators of the kind of physiological processes which are going on
during menstruation, and during the whole cycle of oestrous
phenomena. In addition to the original findings on the rabbit,
Dr. Gott, in particular, extended them to the ovulation phenom
ena in monkeys.
As a result of the very generous cooperation of Dr. Gertrude
Van Wagenen. it was possible for Dr. Gott to study the ovulation
problem in a group of Rhesus females. Five animals, for a total of
twelve menstrual cycles, were studied. It was found that in ten
out of twelve cycles there was a significant and consistent peak
of negative voltage that was higher than any other peak in the
cycle and. because of its distinctive pattern, may be distinguished
from any other peaks in the cycle. This distinctive peak occurred
in every cycle between the eleventh and fourteenth day, and this
is the period in which most of the ovulations are known to occur.
It is believed that this distinctive and reproducible peak is the
56 THE FEMALE FIELD
electrical concomitant of ovulation.
Possibly the two cycles without a significant peak, between
the eleventh and fourteenth days, are anovulatory cycles which
are fairly common in the monkey. Bi-weekly or weekly records
of the abdominal vaginal potential difference were made in two
monkeys from the date of conception until delivery six months
later. In other animals, records were taken from the second
month of pregnancy to the date of delivery.
The records tend to level out somewhat as pregnancy pro
ceeds, so that by the third month the graph is almost a horizontal
line. The cervix remains negative after the second week of preg
nancy until the beginning of the third month, except for rare
instances when it becomes positive. By the third month, the
voltage has dropped to near the zero line where it hovers until
delivery.
Despite these characteristics which differentiate pregnancy
from the menstrual cycle, there are no significan t and consistent
changes during the first month of pregnancy that might permit
the detection of pregnancy a few days after conception.
These results, together with the findings of Dr. John Boling
in the oestrous cycle of the rat, make it quite clear that electro
metrics of the field characteristics of the living organism can
provide useful information about the whole physiology of the
generative tract.
Since all of these experiments stemmed from the basic assump
tion that the living organism possesses an electro-dynam ic field
as a whole, with constituent and subsidiary parts or local fields,
which are specific components of the living system, the well
controlled experimental findings confirmed the general validity
of the primary assumption.
Any individual component of the whole system has, of course,
its own characteristic field which is a part of the field of the
whole organism. Any variations which may occur can be assumed
to be variations in the flow of energy in the system, a flow of
energy which arises first of all in chemistry and is controlled and
directed by the electro-dynamic field of the whole organism.
57 THE FEMA LE FIELD
1
The experiments which had shown the positive correlation
between the electro-metrics of the generative tract in women and
the presence of malignancy throughout the tract led at once to a
further examination of the possibility of electro-metric correlates
of malignancy elsewhere.
In the growth and development of every living system there
is obviously some kind of control of the processes. In the midst
of incredibly complex flux, direction is available for the control
of this growth and for differentiation. As a distinguishe d zoolo
gist once said, 'The growth and development of any living system
would appear to be controlled by someone sitting "on the
organism" and directing its whole living process.'
One of the few things we know of in the Universe that has
direction are the electrical properties of things, in general. The
Field Theory suggested that it should be possible to determ ine
the pol arity and direction of the flow of energy transformations
in the living system. The organism, as a whole, depends on such
directives for its continued existence; so also does atypical
growth.
Energy, however, is a basic requirem ent, indifferent to the
direction in which it flows. It is important, therefore, to realize
that in the development of growth and development of the
organism there are forces in addition to the undirected properties
of chemical changes, factors which give direction to the flow of
energy.
It cannot be denied that morphogenesis is directed. This is true
of the whole organism and also of its constituent parts. Moreover,
the very direction of developm ent implies a necessary relation
ship between the units of which the system is composed, a re
lationship which imparts to the organism that quality which
makes the whole greater than the Sllm of its parts.
Conside rations such as these led to an examination of the
electrical properties of cancer-susceptible mic e. The experiments
v. ere designed to determine whether or not the polarity vectors
were altered in atypical growth.
58 THE FEMALE FIELD
Through the courtesy of Dr. L. C. Strong and Dr. G. M. Smith,
a considerable number of mice from the colonies of Dr. Strong,
were studied weekly. There were four groups of such mice:
A. normal control, B. a strain of mice known to have a high in
cidence of mammary cancer occurring spontaneously, C. a strain
of mice prone to atypical growth following the administration of
carcinogens, and D. a number of mice from a strain which readily
accepted implanted malignant tissue.
Comparison of the groups made it clear that statistically the
control group showed a different electrical pattern from that
found in the animals with spontaneous breast cancer, malignancy
produced by carcinogens, or the atypical growth of transplants.
There were also statistically significant differences between spon
taneous carcinogenics and the transplanted growth. While day
by-day variations in both magnitude and polarity occurred there
was sufficient variability to make it difficult to show a direct ane
ta-one relationship for any individual animal. Clearly enough,
there are other factors in the presence of atypical growth re
sponsible for the variability.
To carry out an experiment it is necessary to control conditions
of food, water, and temperature. A few preliminary experiments
indicated that the individual variability could be reduced sig
nificantly. All the evidence so far collected makes it necessary to
study them under more controlled laboratory conditions.
Through the generous cooperation of Dr. H. S. N. Greene,
some three hundred mice were intensively studied following
the implantation in the breast region of the C38 strain of mice.
The implantations were made by Dr. Greene in the right axilla.
They were from malignant tissue labelled 4578B-PXB-PX and
MTH. In addition, foetal and visceral implants were made from
normal animals.
Measurements were made between the right axilla and the left
axilla in unanaesthetized mice. The common reference point for
the potential differences between the axillae was the placement of
an electrode in the mouth of the animal. Since the left side of
the animal was not involved in implantation, it served to some
extent as a control for the operated side.
The results of the experiment were surprisingly consistent.
59 THE FEMALE FIEL D
Twenty-four to twenty-eight hours after the implantation
changes were to be observed in the voltage gradients. This differ
ence increased steadily and quite smoothly to reach a maximum
of approximately five millivolts on or about the eleventh day,
following which it decreased.
In the animals with the foetal implant representing, therefore,
a rapidly growing mass of embryonic tissue, the difference began
to appear a little later, and reached a peak on approximately the
sixth day, following which the potential difference dropped to
zero and reversed its polarity until the end of the experiment.
In the slow-growing tumours potential differences began to
emerge on the third or fourth day but reached their maximum
of approximately three millivolts on the tenth or eleventh day.
From there, until the end of the experiment, the differences in
potential fell steadily to zero. The control, and those without
growth, showed a variable between the two sides of less than a
millivolt for the entire experiment

Cancer Heroes' Testimonials
It is the nature of the Medical Establishment to say, "These cancer cases did not
have cancer and that is why they are still alive and cancer free." However many of
these patients were diagnosed by biopsy at the most prestigious institutions in the
United States and Canada. Furthermore, in 1985, the actual Biopsy Slides were
reviewed and confirmed by the renowned Pathologist Dr. Robert A. Good, Ph.D.,
former President of the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center of New York City.
The Medical Establishment often accuses their enemy of doing exactly what they
themselves do: Lie, deceive, and cover up. The media then screams it so loud and
long that many of the gullible finally believe it to be true without any proof
whatsoever. However, in the case of my patients, the Establishment cannot do this.
This frustrates them to no end, and they have devised many ways to destroy and
discredit the Cancer Heroes. Nowhere in the Orthodox or Alternative Medical
Communities are so many Cancer Heroes truly documented with such long Cancer-
free life spans.

Winning The Cancer War
Introduction
To Dr. Kelley's Cancer Heroes
We are bringing to your attention two groups of cancer heroes. These cancer
heroes, except as noted, were all alive and well and cancer-free in 1986. I  unplugged
my computer on the 30th of August 1986, and closed the doors on the Kelley
program. Many of these heroes are still alive and well. I  spoke to several in 1999 and
2001. I  feel many others w ill contact me when they find this booklet. The Cancer
Heroes are listed in two groups as follows:
Group I
Dr. Carol A. Morrison, M.D., F.A.C.C. and Dr. Kelley contacted these patients in
late 1990. The following Group I  patients were included in the 1982 edition of
Metabolic Ecology by Fred Rohe. Many in this group of patients written up by Fred
Rohe were copied and used by Nick Gonzalez for technical publication. Under the
direction of the former president of Sloan-Kettering Institute, Dr. Robert Good, Mr.
Gonzalez spent five years of serious investigation and review of the medical records
of Dr. Kelley's patients. Of the thousands of cancer patients available, they narrowed
the group down to 1,000 original patients who could meet the high standards of this
study. Of the 1,000 qualified patients, many of the "Rohe 50" were used and written
up. The 50 patients represented 25 types of cancer, half of which were diagnosed at
major medical centers such as the Mayo Clinic, Sloan-Kettering Institute and others.
The results of this study were extraordinary.
Group II
Group II consists of patient's stories that were collected and written up in 1982 by
Mr. Fred Rohe for his book Metabolic Ecology. They are presented in the patients'
own words, and include Dr. Kelley's spontaneous thoughts recorded immediately
upon reading them. Mr. Rohe selected 24 patients of the thousands available.
Ovarian Cancer Testimonial
Cindy Hollinger
In April 2001, when Cindy was first diagnosed with terminal, late-stage Ovarian
Cancer symptoms, oncologists recommended extremely aggressive surgery including
ovary removal, complete hysterectomy, stomach and lung scraping, and bowel
125
Winning The Cancer War
resectioning. Following the surgery, they recommended six courses of
Chemotherapy... if she should live that long! Being a petite 5'2", 105 lb, 42-year-old
woman, these invasive treatments were refused, especially when told that a two-year
survival rate was less than 1%! Ascites fluid drains were never mentioned during
these conversations.
Alternative Treatments were then researched on the Internet, and after an exhaustive
two-month search, Dr. W illiam Kelley D.D.S.'s comprehensive cancer treatment
program for terminal Ovarian cancer was chosen.
During the first symptoms of Cindy's terminal Ovarian cancer, a Pleural Effusion (fluid
accumulation in, or around the lung) was found in Cindy's right lung. A Pulmonary
Specialist drained the lung of fluid three times over the course of two weeks by using
the Thoracentisis method. Despite the fact that four oncologists felt invasive surgery
and chemotherapy where the only answers, the Pleural Effusion unexpectedly
discontinued, never to return.
From April, 2002 -  September 2002, as the Ovarian tumors shrank, free-flowing
Ascites fluid accumulated intermittently in Cindy's abdomen area.
Suddenly, during the height of a Red Tide epidemic along Florida's East Coast (a
harmful algae bloom capable of killing thousands of fish and affecting the human
immune system), Cindy once again suffered from extensive Ascites fluid
accumulation.
From mid-October 2002 to February 2003, twelve frantic trips to the hospital, many
on short notice and three through Emergency Room check-ins, resulted in a
seemingly endless cycle of Ascites fluid drains in the stomach, abdomen, and left
lung, (the right lung remained clear of Ascites fluid) every 8 - 17 days.
The unusual aspect of this period of drains, was the fact that once free-flowing Ascites
fluid had encapsulated into bubble-like enclosures, allowing Radiologists to drain
them more precisely by using a CAT scan machine. Note: Encapsulation of cancerous
Ascites fluid is a frequent occurrence with Dr. Kelleys program.
Quite unexpectedly after the January 27 & 30, 2003 drains, the Ascites fluid caused
by the Ovarian cancer began to dissipate in Cindy's abdomen, while the Pleural
Effusion fluid in her left lung never came back!
50 days went by before Cindy showed signs of excessive fluid symptoms and the next
two procedures (March 21 & 30), involved minimal drains in the abdomen and
stomach areas. The Pleural Effusion in the left lung was now confined to small
encapsulated bubbles which to date, have not built up again. Both times the
126
Winning The Cancer War
Radiologist took special care and focused on two or three problematic areas. 64 days
later, on June 3 2003 one more drain took place.
The last Oncologist report stated that the tests performed on the Ascites fluid showed
that the cancer cells were well differentiated, a very positive sign considering terminal
cancer cells are very aggressive, and are typically fragmented and poorly
differentiated.
Since that drain in June, 2003, Cindy has minor symptoms relating to Ascites buildup.
Typically, 2 - 4 cysts (small bubbles of Ascites fluid) build in the abdomen and
stomach areas over a period of 90+ days and Cindy requires minimal parenthesis
procedures. This is a far cry from the original Ascites drains of one - three liters each.
These cysts are not painful but do cause minor discomfort as they expand and press
on vital organs. For instance, she may have to go to the bathroom frequently because
a bubble might be pressing on her bladder, or, she can't east a lot at one time
because a bubble is pressing on her stomach. These are sign that she needs a drain.
There are a few other bubbles inside her pelvic area, but they don't seem to be
causing her any problems. The hope is that Dr. Kelley's enzymes w ill slowly dissipate
these cysts.
The following is a letter from Cindy's primary physician. It is addressed to Southwest
airlines, giving them an update on her health status. It is Cindy's hope to go back to
work as a flight attendant in April, 2005. And let me tell you, I  believe it's going to
happen! Ken
Hodgkin's Disease Testimonials
Hodgkin's disease is a moderately rare cancer of the lymphocyte system and
associated organs that claimed 1,500 lives in 1987.
Physicians have classified (in the claimed 1,500) this malignancy system of four
"stages" (I-IV). Stage I  represents early, localized disease; stage IV defines advanced,
widely disseminated cancer involving many organs of the body. Stages II and III
include more intermediate forms. Physicians further categorize Hodgkin's disease by
the letters "A" and "B." The designation "A" refers to patients without symptoms. The
letter "B" identifies patients with symptoms such as fevers, chills, night sweats, and
fatigue. Hodgkin's, if untreated, is often rapidly fatal. "A single series of untreated
patients reported by Croft in 1941," writes Devita, head of the National Cancer
Institute, "leads us to believe that the course of patients with Hodgkin's disease, if left
untreated, regardless of the stage, is brief, measured in 1  to 2 years. In that series, the
median survival was less than 1  year and most patients were dead by year 2, with
727

fewer than 5% alive after 5 years."
At present, the "MOPP" chemotherapy regimen is the most widely recommended
treatment for Hodgkin's. This protocol employs four drugs — nitrogen mustard,
Oncovin (vincristine), procarbazine and prednisone — given once every twenty-eight
days for at least six months. As Devita explains, "Unless chemotherapy is


 the body.
The interesting thing is that the body expresses ~nd
does what the minds holds. One is subject to what the
mind believes. In other words, the body, being like a
puppet, is controlled by mind, both consciously and
unconsciously. Few people realize the power of mind
overbod~,
When looking at the Map of Consciousness, we can
see that the physical body has a relative energy of 200
(the same as the earth).The levels of mind are energies
up to and including the 400s.
The energy field ofthe body is neutral-:-it is neither
positive nor negative. In looking at the physics of it, a
thought held in mind from an energy field of 400 then
dominates the body, which has an energy field of only
200. Consequently, the beliefs, ideas, thoughts, configu
rations, patterns, and scripts that are held in mind are
adopted by the body and begin to reflect in the body's
physical appearance. This has been covered in our
discussions on health, illness, and giving up the various
diseases.This principle is important to consider further.
Later in this chapter are physical examples and
ways to verify the principle for oneself, for example,
how to undo the middle-age myth, the whole of idea of
decrepit old age, the idea of failing health, and the
belief system that all these things are inevitable and
must be part and parcel of the body process itself, little
realizing that they are actually coming from mind.This
can be demonstrated with very simple clinical exam
ples, such as hypnosis.
In hypnosis, for instance, an old person who is quite 203 THE AGING PROCESS
feeble walks into the office and says, "Would you like
me to sit here? Can I sit in this chair here?" And he sits
down as though he barely has the strength and power
to sit in the chair. Then he is put under hypnosis and
told that he is thirty-five years old. Then amnesia is
induced so he will not remember what the suggestion
was. When awakened from the hypnotic state, he is
asked, "Would you like a glass of water?" and he
answers, "Yes, I would like a glass of water." He then
walks over to the fountain, takes a glass, fills it, sits
down, and the feeble old man is gone.Where are all the
shaking and the trembling? Where are the weakness
and decrepitude? What has happened to the feeble old
man? He seems to have disappeared!
Through this clinical example, it can be seen that
through the hypnotic state, the body is reflecting exactly
what the mind believes-the way it stands, the way it
holds itself, and its attitude toward the body. The old
man is looking at the body as though it is frail. He is
preoccupied with the thought that he might fall and
break his hip.As a result, holding that in mind might
bring it into his life experience.
Another example is in the case of the multiple per
sonality where one of the personalities has totally dif
ferent views about health, life, and aging than the other
one has.The body reflects the beliefs ofthe personality
that is dominant at the time. If one personality believes
in asthma while in the body, the body literally has asth
ma. But when that personality is replaced by a more
pleasant personality that does not have abelief in psy
chosomatic illnesses, then the asthma is not present
and the person has no allergies. Consequently, the 204 HEALING AND RECOVERY
physical body reflects one's unconscious belief systems
as well.
In looking at how these belief systems arise, the
. mind fIrst erroneously concludes that it does not have
any options and thus thinks it is at the effect of the
body and the ongoingness of time. In this case, the
mind is giving away its power to the calendar. It pic
tures that the body must of necessity get older as the
years go by.
A very interesting clinical example is 'progeria', a
genetic condition in which the person progressively
ages and becomes an extremely old, old person by the
age offIve, six, seven, eight, and nine years, and is often
dead by the age of ten from literally decrepit old age.
Death can actually occur from old age in a span of only
ten calendar years.
If calendar years were the cause and the physical
body was at the effect of the calendar, no such thing
could occur.This information is provided to begin to
open the mind to see that there are options and that
what we believe, buy into, and allow ourselves to be
programmed by now becomes the source, the pro
gram, and the script, and that this script begins to
express itself on the physical l~vel. When seeing it
occurring on the physical level, the mind, due to its
naiVete, concludes that the cause is happening on the
physical level. The naIve mind sees causality on the
physical level as 'A causes B causes C' within the
physical realm, the turning of the calendar, and the
seasons. Thus, it is causing the aging process of the
body on the physical level.
In truth, something from a higher level is sequen205 THE AGING PROCESS
tially causing both A, B, and C. Ifwe hold the concept
in mind that goes A... B... C, then within the physical
world, we ftrst seeA, then B, then C.Therefore, the left
brain, because it thinks linearly and projects its con
cept onto the phenomena of the world, holds that A
must cause B must cause C. It never suspects that the
causality ofABC is simultaneously arising from a differ
ent level altogether.
The level of cause, where the power is, is the level
of mind. The world of the physical is the world of
effect. It creates ABC. Ifwe hold a pattern in mind of
what agmg looks like and think that is what must be
and happen, we create on the physical level ABC-the
decrepit people-because that is what old people
looked like in our childhood. We were convinced that
is what someone looks like when they are eighty; thus
we will look like that when we are eighty years old. If
we were to look back into that person's mind and see
their pictures ofwhat an old man looks like, we would
see that he looks exactly like the person standing in
front ofus because that was his picture ofwhat it looks
like to get old.
An experiment demonstrating what the mind
believed was done with the menstrual periods in
women in which they were given an injection and told
that it would result in their skipping their next men
strual period.They were given an injection ofa placebo,
and about eighty-ftve percent skipped the next period
and about ftfteen percent experienced a lengthy delay
in its onset.
These examples are not exceptions. Our interest is
in the basic principle, which is that this is going on all 206 HEALING AND RECOVERY
the time. The mind continuously reflects the patterns
and beliefs ofwhat is being held in mind.These clinical
examples from hypnosis and research experiments are
merely isolated ones to demonstrate it clearly. We can
see that under hypnosis, the body will do exactly what
the mind believes. For instance, a patient can be hypno
tized and told he is allergic to roses, and when he
wakes up, his nose will become stuffy. He will develop
hay fever and have an asthma attack right there in the
office. This experiment has historically been done
many times and recorded in the annals ofpsychoanaly
sis.This is always going on; now you can become aware
of the constant programming affecting us.The expecta
tions of middle and old age and what they are sup
posed to mean are brought on by the mind out of its
naIvete.
As mentioned previously, one of the basic princi
ples of consciousness itself is its intrinsic innocence.
Because the mind is innocent, we have to begin to care
fully watch and guard it. We have to become like its
mother. The mind is like an innocent child who goes
out in the world and believes everything it hears. It
believes every billboard, every commercial, and every
remark that people make. It believes what it sees. It has
no way to evaluate it and has no sense of discrimina
tion.We have to begin to take responSibility and say, "I
can see that my mind is intrinsically innocent, and
because the innocence of the mind of the child is still
with me throughout life, I should start looking into
what it has been buying."
In looking at the lives of many who are very
creative, one can see that they characteristically live 207 THE AGING PROCESS
well into their nineties, frequently getting married at
eighty-five, and even having children at ninety. Dr.John
Diamond wrote an entire chapter about that and the
energy of life in one of his books, Behavioral
Kinesiology. He studied the life patterns ofthose people
who were devoted to classical music as conductors,
composers, and performers, and found that they all
characteristically
