www.thegersonway.coma well functioning immune system there is nothing to stop a few of those irregular cells to initiate
a malignant process.
 What we are dealing with here is the mysterious interaction of biochemistry and emotions,
which we have only begun to explore and understand. But there is already enough orthodox
clinical—as opposed to anecdotal—evidence to prove that inner attitudes can make a big
difference to survival. For example, British researcher Stephen Greer 6 interviewed a group of
women three months after they had undergone mastectomies, to find out how they were coping.
He found four distinct types among them who showed respectively fighting spirit, denial, stoic
acceptance and hopelessness. After 5 and 10 years, 80% of the fighters, but only 20% of the
hopeless had survived. These rates had nothing to do with medical prognoses.
 In the U.S., David Spiegel, M.D.,7 invited 36 women with metastasized breast cancer to
attend weekly meetings for a year, where they could share worries and sorrows, encourage each
other, and make their mental attitude positive. A control group of 50 women attended no such
meetings. Spiegel only wanted to discover whether the group meetings enhanced the members’
quality of life, which it certainly did. But he was amazed to find that they also lived twice as long
as the members of the control group.
 Another interesting insight comes from US oncologist Bernie Siegel, M.D.8, author of several
best-selling books that have helped to extend public understanding of the body-mind link in
health and sickness. He claims that 15-20% of cancer patients consciously or unconsciously want
to die, no doubt to escape a difficult life trap. 60-70% wish to get well, but are passive and expect
the doctor to do all the work. 15-20%, however, are exceptional: they refuse to be victims, they
research their disease, don’t obey the doctor automatically but ask questions, demand control and
make informed choices. In Dr. Siegel’s words, “Difficult or uncooperative patients are most likely
to get well.” Apparently they have a more warlike immune system than docile patients.
First Aid for the Mind

 There are simple ways to dispel the newly diagnosed patient’s sense of hopelessness and
isolation. The first step is to de-mystify the disease, discuss it openly, in a natural voice, without
avoiding the dreaded word ‘cancer.’ One of the very first advantages which the intending Gerson
patient experiences is the calm assurance with which his or her problem is approached, with the
clear message that yes, it is possible to be healed, not just put into remission (which is the best
orthodox medicine has to offer.)
 What the patient needs is a safe space in which to release stormy emotions, and to be listened
to with total unhurried non-judgmental attention, something that time-starved doctors and nurses
cannot give. It is a mistake to try to comfort and console too soon or offer cheerful assurances.
To do that would simply stop the patient from expressing his or her true feelings. They must be Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007.  All rights reserved.

www.thegersonway.comgiven free flow. But once that has happened, I ask a vital question: “Do you want to live?” If the
answer is yes, I ask: “Do you want to live unconditionally?” Another firm “yes” settles the matter,
while a hesitant “Yes, but…” reply hints at an undecided individual, possibly stuck in a life trap.
If I ask what the rest of the sentence might be, I often get something like “if things go on as
before, I’m not sure I want to live.” That “but” needs careful exploration to make sure that it will
not undermine the healing work. The 18-24 months of the patient’s life prior to the diagnosis can
yield valuable clues. Did some major stress or trauma drive the patient to drink, drugs, or other
destructive habits, which caused significant liver damage? Gentle questioning often allows us to
identify some life trap. The next task is to show that there is a way out, other than dying.
 It helps to build a therapeutic partnership with the patient, in which he or she has an important
role to play. This is easy with the Gerson Therapy, which cannot succeed without the patient’s
active cooperation. If a patient tells us that 85% of people with his or her condition die within
three years, we suggest joining the 15% who don’t. (I recall with admiration the fragile little
woman riddled with cancer who, when told that she had six months to live, brightly replied, “Oh
good, I have six months to get well!” And get well she did, on the Gerson program.)
 I like the way LeShan4 approaches the task of shifting the mood from negative to positive.
His basic questions are, “What’s right with you? What are your special ways of being, relating,
creating? What is blocking their expression? What do you need to fulfill yourself? Above all,
what do YOU want to do with your life?” Once these basics have been clarified, it is time to point
out the enormous potential open to the patient, if only he or she will ACT, NOT JUST REACT,
and start making personal decisions. Much can be achieved in a short time. The main tool of the
therapist is his or her personality and calm, reliable presence. Often this is the only solid support
in the patient’s confused, chaotic world. Other tools, such as teaching relaxation techniques,
simple meditation, and creative visualization focused on self-healing, should also be used by
trained counselors or therapists. (see Chapter 25 )
Clearing the First Hurdle
Many patients come to the Gerson therapy as a last resort, after the failure of conventional
medical treatments, which has left them with deep disappointment, loss of trust, and a lot of
severe after-effects. To embark on the Gerson program is for them a final gamble, an end-of-
the-line decision. Others choose the Gerson path at an earlier, less serious stage of their disease,
with fewer irreversible changes in their bodies, but with a poor prognosis. Either way—and this
is the first hurdle to be taken into account—they embark on an unfamiliar treatment, much of
which sounds bizarre at first. Moreover, they are aware of having stepped outside the limits of
orthodox medicine, leaving behind the network of doctors, consultant, hospitals, referrals—an
entire system which has been unable to heal them, yet still carries an aura of great power. Some
may have been rudely dismissed by their physicians, simply for daring to consider an “unproven” Copyright © Charlotte Gerson, 2007.  All rights reserved.

www.thegersonway.comalternative therapy. Others face pressure and doubts from family members and friends who refuse
to accept that a weird-sounding therapy may possibly succeed where modern hi-tech medicine
has failed.
This kind of pressure can be debilitating for the patient, who probably also suffers from some
niggling doubts, and so the next urgent task is to make clear how and why the Gerson Therapy
works. Most people are familiar with the workings of allopathic medicine, where there is a pill for
every ill and you either recover or die, but at least things happen fast. Here, however, the patient
faces two years of unremitting effort, strict discipline and a total change from a so-called normal
lifestyle, all of which sounds pretty scary, especially because there is no guarantee of success at
the other end. This is when the cognitive approach works best. It needs no medical background to
understand why rebuilding the immune system is a better idea than knocking it out with radiation
and a cocktail of poisons, and once the simple but powerful logic of the Gerson program is
grasped, the patient is reassured and willing to proceed as an equal partner and ally of the doctor
or counselor
Help Comes from the Body
One of the most striking results of the Gerson program is the immediate improvement in
the new patient’s general condition. Pain diminishes, appetite begins to return, sleep improves
within the first few days on the program. This in itself boosts the mood of the patient, who over
the preceding months, if not years, had only experienced deterioration in his or her condition
and a fading of hope. Now the opposite has begun to happen, and it immediately changes the
atmosphere. (Visitors to a Gerson clinic are astonished by its relaxed atmosphere and the patients’
good mood—mealtimes are usually loud with laughter—as opposed to the heavy, sad air of the
average cancer hospital). Needless to say, this changed mood and the accompanying sense of
relief also begin to have a helpful effect on the immune system.
However, the healing journey has only just begun, while the need for psychological support
is far from over. The patient is faced with a total change of lifestyle, diet, and daily

 Vital Force that would otherwise be used tohandle your food is now being used exclusively to cleanout the debris, waste, and poisons that have been lockedin the body cells and vital organs. Rejuvenation is takingplace in every one of the billions of cells of the body!After the
4 days of de-salting the body, be sure to keep
salt out of your diet. It’s a difficult thing to do sincethere’s so much “hidden salt” in so many different foods.That’s where your weekly
24 – 36 hour fast helps continue
to de-salt and detox your body to keep you healthy!
We find it difficult in our world travels, lecturing and
doing research, to avoid “hidden salt” in foods, eventhough we always do request, “No salt, please!” inrestaurants, on cruise ships, airplanes and trains.However, our weekly cleansing fast of
24 to 36 hours
keeps any inorganic salt we ate flowing out of our bodies.23We never add salt to foods in the Bragg household!
We use natural seasonings that add zest to foods: herbs,
garlic, kelp, onion, lemon and our delicious BraggOrganic Vinegar and Bragg Aminos, a tasty all purposesoy seasoning that contains 16 amino acids. With fasting,you’ll soon see how much better you feel and look! Andwhat a sweet taste you will have in your mouth. Youwill note many changes for the better when you are
faithful with your fasting program and banishing salt!
Fasting is the Great Cleanser and Purifier
People are constantly asking and writing me, “Will a
fast cure my ‘this or that’ disease?” I want it clearly anddistinctly understood that I am not recommending
fasting as a cure for any disease! I don’t believe in cures
unless Mother Nature, God and your body do it! I canonly inspire you to fast to build more Vital Force to
overcome enervation and debilitation. Then as you build
up your body’s Vital Force it can then self-cleanse andself-heal. Read our Build Powerful Nerve Force  book for
more info on importance of building your Vital Force.
Enervation Explained
We live in a chaotic world. The demands for energy
in these hectic times are enormous. We all have astandard of living to maintain and an image to createand live up to for our relatives and friends. We eachhave many responsibilities. Every waking hour requiresgreat outputs of Vital Force to earn our daily living, tosupport our family, to drive a car in traffic, to beresponsible for a job, to maintain a house, to rear ourchildren, to perform social and civic duties. Plus thereare thousands of other daily activities that call for yourVital Force to perform continually in operating your
body. You need go-power and energy!
Energy is a precious vital ingredient; it cannot be
purchased in a bottle or can. Many misguided peoplethink they can get it from drugs, alcohol, tobacco,caffeine, sugar and colas. They can’t! Energy is a reward
for living as close to Mother Nature’s Laws as possible.24
When you live as God and Mother Nature
 intended you to live, you start to rejuvenate yourself!Almost every human malady is connected, either by
highway or byway, with the stomach. – Sir Francis HeadHumans Won’t Take Blame for Miseries
It’s because of your bad habits that things start to
break down and decay in your body! Your bad habits
enervate and rob your energy! This is the importantpoint: as energy drops and you become enervated, you
do not have enough energy for your body to properly
cleanse. Low energy brings on slow functioning in allthe basic eliminative organs: the bowels, kidneys, skin
and lungs. There is no energy to function at full natural
capacity. Then poisons of all kinds are not completelyflushed out of the body, but instead are deposited inside,
slowly building up and taking a terrible toll!
Poisons start to collect in various parts of the body,
causing you illness, aches and pains. These are Mother
Nature’s flashing warning signals that you are not living
the healthy lifestyle that She and God intended for yourbody! Perhaps you blame everything and everybody for
your problems, instead of analyzing your lifestyle habits
for the real causes!
“No,” you say, “I caught a cold when I worked too
hard.” “I get sick because I am getting older.” Excuse afterexcuse is given... but never the real cause: yourself. You
alone are responsible for your aches, pains and premature
ageing! Start now living The Bragg Healthy Lifestyle!
Your unhealthy habits promote low Vital Force and
fatigue! Then the p oisons can’t be thoroughly flushed
out of the body. So they find a spot to torment you and arenamed according to the location of your pain. But that
pain actually came from the way you live. Don’t put the
blame elsewhere! You have enervated yourself, and thetoxic poisons from many sources of your daily living are
tormenting you. Cleanse and rebuild your Vital Force by
fasting and natural living, and fatigue will vanish!
Unhealthy living is the reason why you feel burned out,
fatigued, full of aches and pains, prematurely old and,
maybe heading straight for the human “scrap heap”!25Most people think they can attempt to break all of
Mother Nature’s good and just laws of Healthful Living.
How very wrong they are. You can never break a natural
law – it will break you! Many think they can break all ofthe natural laws of health – then run to a doctor to
circumvent these natural laws by having a medical
“miracle” fix-all bandage for their misery.
The Miracles Are Within You
The human being craves sudden miracles. Not fully
aware of the actual achievements of natural nutrition,
exercise and fasting – which are in themselvesmiraculous – he searches in the realm of the unknown
for manifestations that he cannot understand. Simply
obeying Mother Nature’s great laws is too simple aprocedure to follow! People full of miseries and
premature ageing want a quick, easy way to find health
and youthfulness. Just remember: You must earn your
health! You cannot buy it. No one can give it to you. I
have boundless energy, great power, wonderful strength
and radiant, vibrant health because I have studied withrespect Mother Nature and God’s Natural Laws and
followed them faithfully! These healthy, natural
nutritional laws, the Laws of Self-Purification –  fasting,keeping the circulation healthy, free-flowing and the skin
and muscle tone active by exercise – lead to agelessness.
Do You Have Harmful Habits to Overcome?
Do you eat salt and salty foods? Do you drink coffee?
Use tobacco? Alcohol? Use refined white sugar or eat
products with this devitalized material in it? What
devitaminized and demineralized foods are dragging youdown and enervating you? Is your willpower weak or
strong? Who is the boss of your body? Your bad habits? Or
does your mind control your appetites? Remember thatflesh is dumb and can’t think for you. Only with positive
thinking can you overcome the bad habits that your flesh
might crave. If you really do crave glorious health, andunbelievable strength, tremendous vital force and a  trim
and fit body you will be proud of, start now working
with faithful Mother Nature today and not against her!26
Over the next decade nutritionists expect to see those pursuing the more
healthy lifestyle move from meat to beans to avoid saturated fat, toxinsand cholesterol found in all the animal products. – Reader’s DigestNow learn what and how great benefits a temperate diet will bring along with
it. In the first place, you will enjoy good health. – Horace, 65 B.C.Fasting – the Key to Super Energy
Fasting is the key which unlocks Mother Nature’s
storehouse of energy. It reaches every cell in the body,
the inner organs and generates the Life Forces. No one
can do it for you! It’s a personal duty that only you canperform. No one can eat for you. And I believe that 99%
of all human suffering is caused by wrong and unnatural
eating. The efficiency of any machine depends upon thequality and amount of fuel for generating power it is
given. And that goes double for the human machine!
Some people will blame everything on earth except
food as the cause of their physical miseries and premature
ageing. Why they are suffering is always a mystery to them.
The average person does not know how horribly uncleanthe inside of their body is, caused by years and years of
overeating, eating when not really hungry and, in many
cases, wrong- minded eating of dead, devitalized foods. All
these unhealthy habits build up internal poisons and
clogging toxic wastes in their bo dies.
Put the person who brags that he “enjoys perfect
health” on a complete distilled water fast for 5 or 6 days.His breath will become putrid and his tongue will have
a foul-smelling, white coating. His urine will become
dark and evil-smelling. This definitely proves that hiswhole body is filled up with decayed and uneliminated
toxic materials brought in by eating the wrong foods.
The continual accumulation of increasingly foul body
poison is the buried or latent unknown ailment. When
Mother Nature wants to get rid of this ailment by a
“crisis” commonly

 psychological burdens of chronic disease.
All they were to do was to “hang out” with one anoth er, to
spend quality time, and to celebrate their gifts. So every activity they
would do—whether it was arts and crafts, whether it was walking in
nature, no matter what it was—this doctor would point out to them
their talents and their successes.  And she would celebrate the gifts
that they each had in this lifetime. And whether your life is 7 years or
17 years or 70 years long, to me in that moment I felt like gosh, it
almost doesn’t make a difference.
Because what she was teaching these children was to live a
spiritual life in the time they were here. And rather than feeling like
their life was “worse off,” these kids were actually some of the
happiest childr en I’d ever met! Every time they saw this particular
doctor, they walked into the room with a smile on their face and with
joy pouring out of their hearts. And I think it’s because, although
these kids had a fraction of time on the planet compare d with our
current life expectancy, she was teaching them how to live in
alignment with the Agenda of the Soul.
So while their bodies may have been “dying,” their souls were
not.
And to that degree, their lives were...
 NEALE: ... complete.

DR. COOPER: Yes! Their lives were complete.  And if this isn’t true
healing, then I don’t know what is.
To me, it illustrates perfectly what we’ve been talking about in
this conversation—and in the whole book, actually. That the whole
point of even having a physi cal life is as a vehicle to express what
our soul desires to experienc e, which can only be experienced in the
Realm of the Relative,  as you said several minutes ago.
And this story really illustrates to me how, regardless of the time
we have in this particular lifetime—in this particular physical
expression—there is always enough time to complete the Agenda of
the Soul, when we create the opportunity for our gifts to shine and to
remember the real reason we’re here.
However, it is very true that if we were around for 120, 150, or
170 years, it would certainly be much harder not to contemplate the
Agenda of the Soul, and not to consider the whole point for us being
here on the planet. So having  a longer lifespan would definitely pose
the question in a more vivid, a more noticeable, and a more powerful
way than it ever has been before.

NEALE: It would pose the question in a way that is essentially
unavoidable.

DR. COOPER : Exactly. On the topic of expanded life spans, then,
may we switch gears for just a moment?

NEALE: Sure. What is your question?
DR. COOPER: I am wondering about your thoughts on the idea of
freezing a body in hopes of bringing it back years down the road? I
know this soun ds totally science fiction, but it is actually a real thing.
And it is a remarkable proced ure. The medical term for it is cryonics,
or cryopreservation.10
What it entails is having your body or your brain “frozen” after
you pass away, in hopes that you may be “unfrozen” and brought
back to life years down the road (when medical science has caught
up and “created a cure,” so to speak, for whatever illness you
passed away from).
I recently read an interview with Larry King talking about how
he was hoping to be “cryopreserved,” or frozen, after he died, so that
he can hopefully come back one day.11
I’m curious what you think of this, Neale... and whether it’s
even necessary, or for that matter advisable, from a spiritual point of
view...

NEALE: Well it’s unnecessary, given the Agenda of the Soul, but it is
not necessarily undesirable or somehow spiritually unworthy.
It’s unnecessary in the sense that the soul can achieve what it
wishes to achieve, what it seeks to achieve, through the multiplicity
of lifetimes—the endless number of lifetimes—that the soul,
throughout eternity, may experience. But if the mind is particularly
attracted to and fond of a particular expression in physical form,
there’ s no reason in the world why, if it can be done, that a person
should or could not be brought back to physical life after such aprocedure. And such an eventuality would certainly not inhibit in any
way the continued and further evolution of the soul.
So it’s no more deleterious, and no more damagin g or
obstructive to the overall process of evolution, than the opposite of
that, which would be suicide, or the intentional ending of one’ s life.
Conversations with God has made it very clear to me that the
intentioned ending of one’s life is not a spiritual offense. It’s not “held
against” a soul (nothing, in fact, is), and it in no way inhibits or holds
the soul back from its ability to continue to evolve, and to create and
express larger and larger versions of itself. So if ending  one’s life is
not considered at some level spiritually inappropriate, or non-
beneficial, then certainly extending  one’s life—by whatever means,
including being brought back after being frozen—likewise would not
be spiritually inappropriate or ipso facto non-beneficial.
I think what would happen, though—my prediction would be—
that I would eventually beco me so complete with being Neale, as
Larry might eventually become so complete with being Larry King,
that he would willingly... and this is the irony of it... I suspect that,
should the miracle actually come to pass that people can have their
bodies frozen and then brought back to life when medic al science
catches up to what caused their death and reverse the process, the
irony is that a large number of those people would then, I suspect,
eventually choose euthanasia—the deliberate ending  of their life!
And there’ s the irony of it.
And I mean ultimately. Not as soon as they woke up and got
unfrozen. They ’d say, “Oh wow! It worked! Here I am!” But after a
while, the irony is that the very people who jumped over great
hurdles and contorted the whole experience such that they wouldfreeze themselves in order to extend their lives, those very people
might very well then ultimately voluntarily euthanize themselves.
Because they would get to the point where they would say, “Oh, my
gosh, you mean I’m going be Larry King for the rest of all eternity? I
don’t think so. ”
Not because there’ s anything  wrong with being Larry King, or
Neale Donald Walsch, for all of eternity. But we would run out of
original or new ways to express in this particular form; ways that
continued to stimulate and inspire the Self through the process.
You know, if we think that marriages can sometimes go sour
and go south and get boring after being married for fifty, sixty, or
seventy years, imagine being married to yourself  for 150 years!

DR. COOPER:  (Laughs.) It’s such a fascinating perspective that you
have!

NEALE: Yes, so I think that what would happen is that the Larry Kings
of the world would eventually become bored, out of their sense of
Completion!
Okay, I’ve done all the thing s that I could do. And I’ve done it
over and over again, and I think, you know, I want a new pair of
shoes!
So for the same reason that we go into our closet and throw out
the old things, even though a lot of them are still perfectly wearable
—we send them to the second-hand store, or to Goodwill —because
even though they are perfectly wearable,  we are tired of wearing
them. They haven’t worn out, we’re just tired of wearing them “out.”So they stay in the closet for six years, having not been worn out in
ages.
And we would feel the same way about our body. We haven’t
“worn it out,” especially with this new process where we can be
brought back to life after being frozen. However, we would then go
into the “closet” of our mind and realize that, “Okay, this body hasn’t
worn out—it still can function—but I’m turning it in. I’m turning it in.
Because I want a new body! I want a new physical expe rience, just
like I want a new jacket. I’ve had this one for many years, and I’m
done with it.”
So I think that one of the great adventures for humanity is the
“unexperienced” and the “not yet done.” I think that’s true, by the
way, of all sentient beings.  We strive for that which has not yet been
done and that which has not yet been experienced.
I think that sentient beings are by nature explorers, expa nding
into the farthest reaches of their physical universe, and the farthest
reaches of their metaphysical experience. Both! To, as Gene
Roddenberry said, “Go where no man has gone before.” And I think
that we would be squashing that impulse if we had to continue going
where we’ve gone before, over and over and over again, forever and


 another result of agrochemical
food production, as people have been misled to believe that pesticide residues ca n be adequately washed off by rinsing or scrubbing
the outsides of their produce.
In the past, when people ate lettuce, celery, carrots, and other vegetable s fresh from the ground, the soil left clinging to the
vegetables often contained vitamin B 12. They also obtained the nutrient from the bacteria-laden dirt that acc umulates near the stems
of apples, peaches, pears, and other core and stone fruits. But between the che micals we apply to the soils and our obsessive fear
of germs and bacteria, we effectively eliminate this source of the n utrient, as well.

3) We cannot absorb the B 12  we eat.
Meat eaters easily consume enough B 12  because the bacteria that make it, live in the digestive tracts of li vestock, and it is distributed
in the muscle meats of the animals they eat. As described earlier, v egans who eat organically grown plants from richly composted
soils, and who don’t compulsively wash their produce, should also get ple nty of the nutrient.
In both of these cases, vitamin B 12  deficiency is usually only a problem if you lack a chemical calle d the “intrinsic factor,”
which causes people to be unable to absorb B 12. How does this occur? It seems that intrinsic factor production is reduce d as
dietary fat increases. This is by far the most common cause of B 12  deficiency. Doctors can easily test whether a person has a normal
ability to absorb B 12. For those who do not, no amount of the vitamin in the diet will help. Thus, all of u s, vegetarians and meat
eaters alike, are at risk of B 12  deficiency.
A high-fat diet increases this risk substantially, for two reasons. F irst, the colonies of B 12 -producing bacteria in our intestines
utilize carbohydrates for fuel. As the amount of fat in our diets goes up, t he amount of carbohydrate goes down, thus reducing the
quantity of fuel available to the microbe. Less fuel results in a smal ler colony and an overall decrease in B 12  production. Second, the
B12  uptake sites in our intestines become clogged when there is excess fa t in the diet, further reducing B 12  absorption. When
reduced B 12  production is coupled with impaired absorption, the likelihood of B 12  deficiency becomes predictable.

4) Medical B 12  standards are artificially high.
The situation is further complicated by the fact that many refi ned starchy foods are “enriched” with a synthetic form of vitamin B 12.
When doctors test for “normal” B 12  levels, their results are skewed towards the high end by the fact that  most people eat these
foods (mostly grain products—cereals, breads, pasta, cookies, cakes, etc.) on a daily basis. People who eat a grain-free diet not
supplemented by this poor imitation of the natural nutrient often  test “low” for B 12  even if their levels are healthy and they are totally
asymptomatic. This is because their B 12  levels are being compared to those of people who are consuming a B 12  supplement in their
food at almost every meal.

How important is it to eat organically grown food?
Organic produce is always to be preferred, but life is full of compromises an d choices. It may be better to eat commercially
grown raw vegetables than to eat cooked or steamed organic vegetables, but i t is a difficult choice.
Organically grown produce generally contains more vitamins and min erals than conventional produce (see the FAQ on vitamin
B12  on page 254), and the fresher it is the better. Organic produce generally con tains little or no pesticide residue in comparison
with conventional produce; nevertheless, the amounts involved are not  usually critical to health, and it is far more important to avoid
the pathogenic effects from cooked food.
To concern yourself with pesticide residues while eating cooked food is a prov erbial fire and frying pan situation. Neither is
good for us. The best solution is to consume only organic raw plants. Otherwis e, the decision is much like choosing whether to shoot
oneself in the foot or shoot oneself in the hand.
In the case of cooked complex carbohydrates (grains, potatoes, corn, legumes), h owever, eating them both raw and free of
synthetic chemicals has recently become a matter of grave concer n. Commercial agroscientists are scrambling to counteract the
seriously negative press being caused by a recently discovered DNA-da maging carcinogen and neurotoxin called acrylamide. This
potent chemical killer was found in high concentrations in the food supply  in 2002 by a Swedish researcher.
Scientists at the World Health Organization and elsewhere origin ally attributed shockingly high levels of acrylamide (found
most prominently in bread, chips, crackers, french fries, and other dry-cooked c arbohydrates) to the cooking process itself,
because they found none to be present in raw foods. But we have since learne d that acrylamide is a building block for polyacrylamide, a surfactant added to enhance the effectiveness of M onsanto’s Roundup and other herbicide products used
ubiquitously in industrial farming.
Further research is in order to determine whether bread, pastries, and c rispy snacks made from organically grown plants
contain this lethal chemical, but in any case the presence of acryl amide in these foods presents one more nail in the coffin of the
standard American diet. If you still eat these foods, I urge you to do at leas t some reading about this profoundly toxic chemical. You
can begin with the two articles referenced in the endnotes of this book. 85

Do I have to do calculations every day?
No. Y ou don’t have to calculate percentages every day to make sure you’ re eating properly. By eating primarily fruit,
vegetables, and leafy greens, your diet is automatically close to the i deal of 80/10/10. However, you may want to use a calculator to
determine whether you are getting enough calories for the day to meet  your basic metabolic and exercise needs.
The tools in Appendix D. Resources for Diet Analysis are especially h elpful to the newcomer, because it is common to
undereat fruit and overeat fatty foods when beginning the raw vegan di et. I recommend that you input your food information into
CRON-O-Meter or on Nutridiary.com, FitDay.com, or another similar websi te for at least a week, to make sure you have the
relevant information about your calories and caloronutrient ratio.
Very often, people simply do not eat enough because their stomachs are used t o accepting a certain volume of food each day,
and raw foods are not as calorie dense as cooked foods. Therefore, to consume enough c alories, you need to train your stomach to
accept more food, especially fruits.

How do I eat so much fruit at once?
It takes some practice to develop the ability to consume what, from th e raw perspective, should be thought of as “normal”
amounts of food for a human. Somewhere in between “all you care for” and “a ll you can” there is a happy medium that will enable
you to increase the amount you consume without overeating. The stomach  is very accommodating in this regard and will stretch
quickly to allow you to consume normal/healthy quantities of fruit.
At the same time, your image of what is a healthy amount, and your mindse t about quantities of fruit will grow to match your
ability to eat it. The more you practice eating meals of just fruit, only  fruit, and nothing but fruit, the easier and easier it will become to
consume appropriate volumes.
If your fruit meal does not “hold” you until the next meal time, at least  three to five hours later, then you did not eat a sufficient
quantity of food. With practice, it will get easier. Until then, feel fre e to add an extra fruit meal between breakfast and lunch, and
again between lunch and dinner.

What does “mono eating” mean?
Mono eating is the practice of eating one particular food for an entire me al, in sufficient quantity to produce satiation until the
next meal. This is the way that every nonhuman creature on Earth g enerally eats. I recommend eating monomeals for optimal
digestion, absorption, and assimilation.
A monomeal might consist of four or five bananas for a sedentary beginner  or twelve to eighteen bananas for a seasoned raw
athlete. Another monomeal might be two or three mangos for the beginner, and four or more for the athlete.
It is important to remember when reading about food volumes that a small in active woman may only eat a quarter of what an
active male could eat. Do not be intimidated when you hear a low-fat raw ve gan athlete tell you that he ate a dozen or more bananas
for lunch. Four or five may be sufficient to meet your needs if you are a sm aller, less active individual.
Variety is obtained over time, throughout the seasons, not at every meal. In nature, if sufficient food is available, animals tend
to eat one food at a time until they are full.

What’s wrong with avocados, nuts, and seeds?
Avocados, nuts


plant, animal or human. Science has proven that by projecting love or positive energy to a plant, the plant will ﬂourish. The plate energy will also do the same thing to plants. Burns, cuts, aches and pains involve a sudden change to the normal vibration rate of tissue. The theory is that the energy around the plates helps to accelerate the healing and thus return the injured area to its normal rate of vibration.’The Tesla Plate works like a transceiver, relaying cosmic energy to the site of application. This cosmic energy has been known to mankind for thousands of years under the names Prana or Qi.  Essentially, when you place a Tesla plate next to your water, food or near your body, you are bringing that item or yourself into alignment with pure, positive Zero-Point energy.To energize your water with the plates, put the plate next to your water for just 3 minutes and taste the difference.  The water will be energized by the life force energy. Energy Devices

The science for healing works in a very similar way to the Tesla plates, in that, through the process of osmosis, the harmonizer will raise the frequency or vibration of anything containing water around it.  It can be used to energize water, food or worn directly to raise one’s vibration back to it’s healthy, natural state.Kirlian photographs have proven that the molecular structure of water changes when it is placed next to a copper harmonizer.13In addition to being ﬁlled with energized water, the harmonizers are designed into different ancient geometric shapes which further add to their healing power.  Many of the designs originate from Ancient Greece or from early Celtic civilizations.For more information on the pendants, visit: http://www.ancientsources.com. Energy Devices

Previously, I had done 2 water fasts, one for 3 days and one for 10 days.  I did not know about the worms and have never had them released during water fasting before.  During my ﬁrst colon cleanse 15 years ago, I had about 4 long ascaris worms released; since then I had not seen any.  Over the years, I have done many, many parasite cleanses using different herbal formulas, and during those times I also did not see any worms.  The worms starting on Day 8 were a huge surprise.  It’s what motivated me to continue beyond 10 days.I prepared for this water fast by ﬁrst doing a 7-day colon cleanse using the Arise and Shine products and taking one enema daily.  From that, I went straight into the pure water fast.Initially I decided to try the ‘old school’ Natural Hygiene method of not doing any enemas at all during the fast.  Luckily I decided to change my mind after a few days of no bowel movements and feeling rather bloated and full.  Perhaps the worms would have showed up sooner had I started enemas on the ﬁrst day.Since I did the water fast at home on my own, I put a few ‘emergency’ measures in place to best prepare for any situation.  I bought 3 coconuts and a few limes to keep in the refrigerator just in case I needed something in a hurry.  I also made sure that I had some raw apple cider vinegar (naturally high in potassium) which I could easily add to water and drink if need be.I put an auto-responder on my email account and I told my neighbor about the fast and asked that she check in on me once every day to make sure I was ok.After that, I was ready to begin!Warning: There are several photos of parasites at the end of this book (*Please Note: These photos have now been moved to the end of the book so as not to distract or offend anyone.).  If you have an aversion to seeing intestinal roundworms, you may want to read this journal and proceed to the photos with caution.  Every worm that came out was photographed and measured for purposes of documenting the experience and sharing this information with as many people as possible.Personal Story - 40-Day Fast
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!55The First Week: HeadachesDay 1So far everything is ok except that I have a headache.  Perhaps I am doing too much computer work.  Had a natural bowel movement.Day 2Again, headache.  Seems to last for hours and is mostly in the front of my head.  Very strange because I haven’t drank any coffee and I never normally get headaches.  Having some slight leg cramps as well.  If that continues I will take one capful of raw apple cider vinegar in water.  So far it’s ok.  Had a natural bowel movement.Day 3Headache again, sometimes lasts for 6 hours at a time!  So strange.  Having some heartburn too.  Can’t lie down it’s so bad.  Decided to take a few drops of fresh lime in water to calm it down.  It seems to have worked.  Had a natural bowel movement.Day 4Headache, wow, can’t believe the intensity.  Heartburn again too. Sleep is becoming very light and restless.  Spending a lot of time on the computer working on my website.  Maybe that’s the reason behind the headaches?  At least the work is keeping me mentally focused and not thinking about food.  No bowel movement today.Personal Story - 40-Day Fast
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!56I’m using all natural Peppermint Oil to smell and put under my nose when the headaches come on.  Other than that, I just relax and wait for the headache to pass.Day 5Today I started to have liver pain (in the right side).  Wow, very strong!  Well things are deﬁnitely happening.  I also had this pain when I did the Jameth Sheridan Parasite Cleanse program back in April.  I don’t normally ever have liver pain.  I’m spending all of my time at home and trying best to sleep when tired and relax when needed.  Still, I ﬁnd myself drawn to doing work more than I should be.  Really it would be best to simply rest, listen to music, do some light reading and rest more.  I’m trying to lay in the sun for 45 minutes every day.  This really seems to be good for me.Day 6Feeling better today, more happy and more connected to Source.  Still having the liver pain, difﬁcult to sit up at times.  Often it feels better to lie down.  I decided today to do a water enema and I successfully passed some old ‘poo’ so I was very happy with the decision.  As I re-read The Essene Gospel of Peace, it reminded me that they recommend to do a daily water enema and personally, I feel that this method works for me best.  I’m using bottled mineral water for the enemas since I am unable to get distilled water where I’m at.Personal Story - 40-Day Fast
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!57Day 7I was feeling ok until the evening, then suddenly I started to feel very bad and needed to lie down immediately.  I felt hot, had nausea and leg cramps and felt really unwell.After about 5 - 10 minutes, I felt something ‘shift’ in my gut and felt instant and immediate relief, and not only that, but a complete sense of euphoria!  It was unreal.I meditated for 2 hours in this state of complete bliss.  After, I fell asleep into a deep, comfortable state and when I woke up, I didn’t even know where I was!  Amazing!!I had no more headaches or heartburn after.  No bowel movement and no enema today.Reading Cleanse & Purify Thyself by Dr. Richard Anderson today reminded me that I should be taking a probiotic after every enema and at night before bed.Personal Story - 40-Day Fast
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!58The Second Week: WormsDay 8This morning I had a water enema in the morning...and I passed a 5” worm!!  O.M.G.What a total shock!  It must have been what was ‘detached’ or unblocked last night.  All makes sense to me now!The worm appears to be ascaris, a type of round worm which is very common.  This is the same type of worm that I saw 15 years ago on my ﬁrst colon cleanse, but I had no idea whatsoever that there were still some in me!!I felt immediately better after releasing it.I’ve now decided that I will absolutely be doing an enema every day and for sure, I will continue beyond 10 days.  I know that these worms are like cockroaches...when you see one, you know there are more.  It sounds disgusting, but it’s true.I also have no headaches today.Throughout the day, the pain in my liver got progressively worse.  As luck would have it, my organic coffee arrived today from Hong Kong.  I decided to take advantage and do a coffee enema.  After reading various opinions online about doing coffee


water-borne organism. The water body can be affected
through the aura, by meditation. Man must learn so
effectively meditate in order to start work on aura
water body and through metabolic processes.
Somatic - is not a state of clinical death. Soul in the state
clinical death leaves the body, but the body, as opposed to somatic, not
prepared to make a long time to be canned
form. When somatic soul is outside the body, as if close to the body.
A person can continue the life, leaving his body as if
in caretaker status, and then go back.
using somatic can understand the life of the soul, the person sees reality
his body, which is idle and seemed dead, but feels
that lives. During somatic person understands that you can live without
body. The body can be preserved for hundreds, thousands or even
millions of years. But not everyone can, by meditation
reach the state of somatic and not everyone who has learned how to enter
in the state of somatic, can reach deep somatic, when the body
may persist for many years.
If the soul is outside the body in a state of somatic, the body is so
and remains in canned form. If the soul returns
in the body, then the person leaves the state of somatic and comes alive after five,
ten, hundred, thousand, millions of years.
There are physical and subtle worlds. Physical world
includes the matter (planets, stars, etc.) and electromagnetic
and gravitational fields. Thin world includes psychophysical
phenomena (psychic energy, bioenergy, etc.). Slim World
based on microwave frequencies.
There are also torsion fields, ie, the torsion field. in a thin
world soul - energy cluster in the form of torsion fields. within
this swirling space (the soul) contains information
on the functioning of the human body (astral body) and
Cognitive (mental body). The process of thinking is
twisting of space: the kind thoughts swirled space
in one direction, evil thoughts - in the opposite direction.
58
58In order to enter into somatic, it is necessary to free themselves from negative
psychic energy. It is very important to the soul and body were
freed from all negative. Enter into a deep somatic, when
pulse stops, the metabolic energy is reduced to zero,
and the body acquires a stony-stationary, extremely
difficult. This can make a very rare chosen people. Usually
in the schools of meditation people come into a state of somatic 3 times a day
and remain in this state no more than an hour. Somatic self will tell you
how long can you stay in this state. Enter into a deep
somatic state and become a representative of the gene pool of humanity
is the highest spiritual destiny of man. There may be
Only decent people.
Mission of somatic
One of the versions of the purpose of this phenomenon expresses
Ernst Muldashev. He believes that Tibet was a higher intelligence
created the human gene pool and that modern humans directly
came from Atlantis, who were able to maintain their body
able somatic in the Himalayas - the highest part of the world where
wave has not reached during the Flood. Later, when the water
receded and the conditions on the ground once again become quite favorable
for life, the soul returned to the body of Atlantis, and they were again
live, giving the germ of modern civilization.
On the silver thread
When somatic spirit does not want to be reincarnated in another body, and
waiting for his return to his body. Spirit continues to be associated specifically
this body of hundreds, thousands or millions of years. When decided that the spirit
must return to the body, the body comes to life. in occult literature
is the concept of "silver cord" that connects the spirit of the deceased
body within a certain time. If the "silver thread"
breaks, the spirit can not find the body. With the death of the first leaves
body spirit without losing communication with the body, probably within 40 days.
This relationship, in which the spirit can find a body, and there is a "silver
thread.
"Silver Thread" - the principle of superior intelligence, which allows
until the end to have a hope of returning to his body. in deep sleep
spirit "walks", but retains the "silver thread" on which finds
body. Therefore strongly recommended not to wake a man, as spirit
can not manage to find his body. and therefore also to awaken children considered
sin.
3 days after death the soul leaves the etheric body, in 9 days
- The astral body. The body can be revived if the spirit shall return
in it. Therefore, the soul of man is multidimensional. She
represents a set of subtle bodies of man. and in the process
leaving the body can transform itself from a consistently
one state to another (from one to another subtle body). Brain,
which spins the torsion field of the soul (subtle body),
can not work without the spirit. When somatic "silver thread", binding
59
59spirit to the body is preserved as long as you want. Souls in somatic
fueled by cosmic energy.
So what can be a "silver thread"? Is
is again a kind of phenomenal exception to the rule? A rule
obey a single law of evolution of ambivalence
(Monad), and we found that a single self-consistent field
Universe is a collection of interrelated
synchronized and phased electromagnetic fields
including torsion, because they have electromagnetic
nature.
Many people remember from school physics course, electrostatic
discharges occur, for example, between the capacitor plates on
the accumulation of electrostatic charge. And if that discharge will
happen continuously? Would not it reminiscent of the "silver
thread, which will link capacitor plate, while there is
discharge? And if at the same time remember that torsion fields can be
two types? in one type of torsion fields like charges
may be attracted and repelled to the other. There is something to think about.
Now on the water. Muldashev writes that in the long-term somatic possible
enter at a temperature of +4. ° C which is found in caves and under water.
Apparently, the stone-still state of the body (ie, calcification
body) is achieved by changing the state of interstitial
water. It plays a role not only what is at +4 ° C water
has the greatest density, but also the transition of water in a particular state.
Known three states of water: liquid, gaseous and solid.
Most likely, when somatic water goes into the fourth, unknown
Science status. That is the fourth state of interstitial
water allows to stop all metabolic processes and to translate

The process of fasting without water has long been known for thousands of years, but
Unfortunately, most of humanity does not apply, many
do not even know about it. Let us discuss whether this natural process?
Yes, this is a natural process, it is written in the genetic code of human
and animals. Once an animal gets sick, especially if it is serious,
it immediately refuses food and water, so also the human body.
But often the person does not respond to such a state of the body, eats
and drinks through force, often drinking something that only hurts him also, "eats"
tablets. When the body gets sick, it begins full
mobilization of vital forces in the rescue, protection, use
and reserves, of course, if they exist. And so the body does not

 other juice or (energised) water. You may also use 28
 this as the main nutrient on fasting day s, e.g., use about 25 ml in diluted
form every hour.
Liver  is high in many nutrients that a diseased body cannot produce or
convert into its active forms, such as vitamin B12, folate, P5P (activated
vitamin B6); also, vitamin A, enzymes and others. These v itamins and
nutrients from liver are much more potent than synthetic ones as in
tablets or capsules. Additional supplements may still be needed such as
vitamins C, D and B -vitamins, especially niacin.
You can use liver powder from free -range beef but even  better is fresh
free-range liver, buy frozen and use raw. This may be cut or chopped
into small pieces or pressed through a large garlic press and mixed with
other food. Alternatively process a larger amount with a slow juicer and
freeze in ice -cube trays. Use about 20 to 40 g with breakfast or lunch and
add 5,000 IU of vitamin D3 to balance the high vitamin A content of liver.
Protein Powders, stirred into a suitable liquid, are good as a basic snack
or meal. You may mix any of the following in any combi nation or quantity:
spirulina, chlorella, barley or wheat grass powder, ground linseed, bee
pollen, whey protein isolate (but not concentrate), pea protein, soaked
quinoa or chia seeds. You may make the consistency so that you can drink
it or eat it like porridge. For convenience pre -mix a supply of protein
powders in a large container that lasts for several weeks.
Purple Foods  supply strong antioxidants. When cooked or pressed with
skin they yield purple juice. Common examples are beetroot, black,
purple or red grapes or currants, cherries, red wine and red cabbage,
raspberries, bilberries, blackberries and blueberries.
Sprouted seeds  and young shoots such as cereal grasses provide a
higher degree of vitality and rejuvenation than other foods. Sprouted
seeds are a mainstay of a good diet. Commonly used for sprouting are
legumes such as lentils, mung beans, fenugreek, peas and chickpeas,
but also almonds, nuts and sunflower kernels ma y be spouted. Sunflower
and buckwheat seeds make a tasty salad when grown in seed boxes and
cut close to the soil when 5 -10 cm high.  29
 Sulphur -rich foods  improve detoxification and strengthen the immune
system. These include raw egg yolk, garlic, onion, hor seradish,
watercress, turnip and members of the cabbage family.
Problem Foods
Problem foods are widely used basic foods that lead to health problems
in large parts of the population. So -called junk food and heavily
processed and chemicalised food belong i n this category, but also dried
fruits, milk products and wholemeal bread.
What chiefly makes a particular food a problem is the presence of one or
several components that frequently cause metabolic or digestive
problems. Avoid or minimize any problem foo ds that you can identify as
contributing to your health problems.
The main problem foods in our society are:
Cow’s milk products and lactose  cause mucus congestion and
susceptibility to colds, ‘flu and asthma, as well as allergies, and enzyme
deficiencies when using pasteurized products. Casein from Friesian
cows (called A1 milk) is a cause of type 1 diabetes and other problems.
Wheat and glut en products tend to cause intestinal irritation and
inflammation, and contribute to the development of malabsorption,
allergies and overweight. Other gluten grains are rye and barley. Oats
contain a less reactive protein but can still cause problems for ce liacs.
Sugar and sweet foods  make us overacid and oversensitive, cause
mineral deficiencies and contribute to a wide range of diseases, including
Candida, overweight, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer.
Recommended sugar substitutes are xylitol, glycerine and stevia.
Red mea t and saturated fats  (when heated) cause enzyme deficiencies
and may contribute to many diseases, especially if highly heated,
however unheated they can be health foods.
Chemicalised foods are basically all non -organic processed foods with
added chemicals - most supermarket foods. Grain products, peanuts and 30
 dried fruit are most affected by moulds.
Oxalic Acid is rather high in many vegetables, fruit and seeds. Some
examples of high-level foods are spinach, silverbeet/chard, beet leaves,
rhubarb, parsley, tea, and many berries. Even though most oxalates are
produced within the body, a, high level in food can cause digestive
distress, increase mucus congestion by irritating mucous membranes,
and contribute to kidney stones. Any problems can be reduced by adding
some calcium carbonate or eggshell powder when cooking or juicing high
oxalate foods. This then forms calcium oxalate which is not absorbed.
For details see : Cows Milk and Lactose Problems  and Chemicals and
Other Food Problems.
Avoid or Minimize:  wheat and gluten -enriched foods; soy products
except if traditionally fermented; synthetic sweeteners, sugar and sweet
foods; dried and pasteurized milk; margarine, shortenings, canola and
polyunsaturated seed oils; highly heated, microwave -heated and GM -
foods, and generally highly processed food with added chemicals.
Metabolic Types
We have inherited our metabolic make -up from the traditional diets of our
ancestors. I distinguish between 3 basic metabolic types: the non -
vegetarian type needing a high int ake of slow -digesting proteins and fats;
the vegetarian type doing well on a fast -digesting high carbohydrate
intake, and those in -between, the balanced type.
The relationship between these basic metabolic types and blood groups
is rather straightforward.  Blood group O is the oldest blood group. It
originated in the  hunter -gatherer area and corresponds to the non -
vegetarian type with a high requirement for protein and fat.
Group A1 resembles most closely the seed -eating vegetarian type, while
B is the lacto -vegetarian type, and closest to the balanced metabolic
type. Blood group AB has the characteristics of A as well as B. The sub -
group  A2 needs more protein and fat than the dominant A1 type.
Individuals of the non -vegetarian type, commonly with blood group O, 31
 need mainly slow -digesting food; those of the vegetarian type and
commonly with blood group A1 do better with fast digesting food or a low-
fat diet, while the other types and blood groups  may use a balanced diet.

 Chapter Three
NUTRITION - Part Two
Use Supplements, Allergy Testing, and Alkalize the Body

SUPPLEMENTS
Presently nutritional supplements are promoted on a big scale because
that is where the money is. But the health benefits are usually very limited
because most people use supplements instead of focusing on basic
health improvement. The proper place of supplements is in addition to a
health improvement program, and th en focusing on essential nutrients
instead of using a wide range of fancy products.
Commonly supplements now provide many times the amounts of
individual nutrients that might be available even from a good diet and, if
the correct nutrients are supplied in such high doses, they can actually
improve or normalize a health problem. The reason for this success can
be understood as follows.
Presently diets are low in various nutrients but high in factors that reduce
their availability, such as seeds high in phyta tes and phytic acid ( e.g., in
cereals and bran) that prevent absorption of minerals, while microwave
cooking, high heating and refining greatly reduce the amount of absorbed
undamaged vitamins and other nutrients.
Further, because of Candida -caused deficien cy of gastric acid and
inflammation of the intestinal wall in addition to gluten sensitivity, many
nutrients are poorly absorbed. These factors also cause Leaky Gut
Syndrome, microbial infestation of the blood, chronic inflammations and
allergies. This lea ds to hypercoagulation of the blood with blockage of
blood vessels and tissue calcification.
Therefore,  sensitive structures in the brain, eyes, glands and organs are
no longer sufficiently supplied with blood, and the blood that they do 33
 receive is low in  essential nutrients. So, it is no surprise that deficiencies
are widespread. If we now increase the intake of a deficient nutrient ten -
fold with the help of a supplement, then we may double the blood level
of this nutrient and get more of it to the nutrient -starved organs. However,
supplements have the disadvantage that they are often synthetic and do
not have bioenergy for proper absorption and use. They can help if really
needed, but often they also are not properly excreted and produce toxic
resid ues which the body may find difficult to excrete.
An alternative strategy would be to use high -quality food prepared in a
user-friendly way, heal the damage to the stomach and the intestinal wall
by getting and keeping


 single energy. As you build up your
nervous system to handle higher charges of energy without
ejaculating, the exchange of yin and yang energy will gradually
come into awareness. If you build energy at successive points in
the body, greater powers of exchange will open to you and your
lover. You can start by drawing the power to the Hui-Yin and
meditating there.
If the man has more power than the woman he may help the
woman to open her centers by sending his power to her unopened
centers: both concentrate their attention on these points. Chi will
flow wherever the mind is focused. After the power flows into the
Hui-Yin (perineum) send it back up to the Chang-Chiang (coccyx).
While meditating there, you will feel a little pain and tickling on the
scrotum as the center opens. Then to the Ming-Men, door of life in
the back opposite the navel, Til the adrenal glands. When you feel
the power's warmth there send it up to the Gia-Pe point between
the shoulder blades.
After it flows there it will feel very warm and will spread to
the lung. Next direct it to the "emerald pillow" Yui-Gen, at the top
vertebrae on the back of your head. There will be a feeling of
heaviness when the center opens. From there bring it up to the
crown of the head, on a line drawn between the ear and the nose.
The head may feel very heavy or as if there were something drilling
up from inside the head. Then transfer it to the point between the
mid eyebrows.Cultivating The Valley Orgasm 149
Remember that you can't open all of the points in one sexual
embrace. To open one point may take many exchanges of yin and
yang. If you ejaculate, the power is very hard to exchange, for man
loses much power and there remains little to be transferred up.
When the energy is full in the upper region then it will come down
from the tongue. Bring it down to the navel, and collect it in the
navel.
5. The Plateau Phase: Circulate Your Microcosmic Into Your
Lover's Orbit
Depending on the level of vital energy and the spiritual de-
velopment of the individual lovers, a couple over time will experi-
ence new "openings" that occur during their love-making. This
means you will suddenly find you have made a quantum leap in
your feelings and awareness. This usually happens during the
plateau phase of the yin/yang exchange. The period of love-making
when you are not thrusting passionately is referred to as the
"plateau" phase. The "peaks" are the moments prior to the
orgasm averted by doing the Big Draw. The "plateau" is the phys-
ically passive exchange of energy that occurs between the peaks.
DIAGRAM 31
When the tongues touch
this complees the
Microcosmic Orbit of
energy in both partners150 Taoist Secrets Of Love
The subtle energies within your resting bodies are not passive
at all, but are moving dynamically between partners, building to a
new level of sexual-electromagnetic tension. It is an internal wave
of energy building up, an ocean wave that gathers momentum and
crashes, only to be replaced by the next wave. After the sexual
energy has been raised to a high intensity by thrusting and drawn
up the spine on the route of the "Microcosmic Orbit" with the Big
Draw, the yin/yang exchange can begin to happen in many different
ways.
In the beginning the energy exchange between lovers may
seem to be chaotic and happening between any two points of bodily
contact. As you grow more accustomed to the energy gained by
stopping your ejaculation you will begin to discriminate the clearly
defined channels of the microcosmic orbit rising up the spine and
descending down the front of the body. During the plateau phase of
love making you may feel a warm flowing current passing between
her vagina and your penis and between your lips/breasts.
These are the two individual microcosmic orbits joined into
one larger flow circling your two bodies. This will greatly enhance
the balance of energy in both lovers and deepen the bond of loving
in their life. The chi flow is increased in amplitude: you may even
feel like a warm electric current is passing between you. This effect
often occurs quickly in lovers in good health practicing the Big
Draw ranging from only a few love making sessions to several
weeks or months.
The two microcosmic circuits, that of the man and the
woman, can be joined in a number of different ways. The most
common is the intersection of their two circular orbits at the
mouths and genitals of the two lovers forming a figure eight. The
figure eight can cross as the Microcosmic energy drawn up by the
man up his spine is passed into the woman through his tongue,
which acts like a kind of electrical switch. The male energy then
enters her Microcosmic orbit and goes down her front (functional)
channel and down through her vagina, into the penis and back up
his spine. The woman circulates her orbit in a parallel fashion, up
her back channel and down his front channel before it re-enters her
body at the vagina and goes back to her perineum and spine. This is
the simplest way to consciously direct this level of exchange of yin
and yang energy.
Each couple can play with different figure eight patterns ofCultivating The Valley Orgasm 151
exchange. At first you may verbally tell your lover what you're
concentrating on. Later, as you become more sensitive to your
own and your lovers energy, the chi exchange itself will become a
silent language, punctuated by the pleasure of sending a tingling
warm current into your lover. The figure eight may cross at your
mouths only, or at your genitals only if you are not kissing but still
lie within her. It may snake around your governor channels—up
your spine and down hers, or vice versa.
At this level many couples experience spontaneous openings
of some of the 8 special psychic channels taught as the "Fusion of
the Five Elements" meditation in the Taoist yoga system, (see
chap. 18) These channels include the positive and negative arm and
leg routes, the belt routes spiralling around the body, and the
thrusting route up the center of the body. Don't be alarmed if your
energy goes wild and begins moving in ways to which you are not
accustomed. Many lovers experience a column of energy rising on
a line midway between their bodies; if it happens to you, just relax
and enjoy the play of the subtle energies. Some couples report the
chi shooting up to the top of their heads and showering down in a
fountain of nectar. Others feel like they are wrapped in a cocoon
with their lover, with lines of invisible energy being spun around
them.
When you've opened all your psychic channels and you know
what is possible in terms of energy exchanges, you will then be free
to choose the path of expressing your love at will. It is interesting
that lovers who know nothing of these esoteric methods sometimes
have similar experiences during sex. They can't do it at will but
they do know it first hand from spontaneous opening of subtle
energy channels. The Taoist secrets of love are designed to focus
your awareness on the infinite possibilities that lie within you. This
concentrated awareness is what spontaneously sparks these ex-
periences of divine energy exchange. In this sense love is univer-
sally the path to greatest freedom—the more you share with your
lover, the more choices open to you.
6. Cultivate A "Valley Orgasm" In The Three Tan Tiens.
When both lovers have shared their chi in the Microcosmic
Orbit or other psychic channels, their energy is both intensified and
balanced. This sets the stage for a true fusion of their being in the
valley orgasm.
The "valley orgasm" is an even higher experience of yin/yang152 Taoist Secrets Of Love
exchange that goes beyond the Microcosmic. It may occur spon-
taneously in any couple dedicated to expanding their love and spir-
itual awareness. No technique can guarantee it will happen, but the
methods taught here vastly increase the probability of a couple
enjoying regular valley orgasms during lovemaking. It is a state of
prolonged orgasm that generally occurs during the plateau phase
when the yin and yan^ energies come into an exquisitely delicate
balance. It is a fusion of opposites, a meltdown. However, do not
be disappointed if you learn to block ejaculation and master the Big
Draw but do not have a valley orgasm. That happens frequently
and should be expected, especially in a stressful urban setting
where there are so many distracting forces working against the
sustained balance of subtle energies.

Yin/Yang Exchange:
The male releases his hot yang energy
into her vagina & absorbs the cooling
yin power through his penis.
The lovers simultaneously experience an "opening" of an
energy center during a valley orgasm. This releases a tremendous
energy that is truly thrilling as it radiates out to fill every cell of
your body and joins it together with your lover. The Hindus call
these centers "chakras". The Taoists refer to them as lower, mid-
dle and upper Tan Tien, and locate them in the abdomen, heart,
and head.Cultivating The Valley Orgasm 153
