never  again listen to a  voice like  that, because  if I do, then I am impreg -
nated  by that suggestion and  I will bear the  fruit of lack.
More Free Books Law of Attraction HavenWe turn to another  story in the  Gospel of St. Mark  where  Jesus is hungry.
"And seeing  a fig tree afar  off having  leaves, he  came, if haply he  might
find anything  thereon:  and when he  came  to it, he  found  nothing  but
leaves; for the  time of figs was not  yet."
"And Jesus answered  and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter
forever. And  his disciples heard  it." Mark  11:13, 14.
"And in the  morning, as they passed  by, they saw  the fig tree dried up
from the  roots." Mark  11:20.
What tree am I blasting? Not a  tree on the  outside.  It is my own con -
sciousness. "I am the   vine." John 15:1. My consciousness, my I AMness
is the  great tree, and  habit once more suggests emptiness, it suggests
barrenness, it suggests four months before  I can feast. But I cannot wait
four months. I give  myself this powerful suggestion that never  again will I
even for a  moment relieve  that it will take four months to realize my de -
sire. The  belief in  lack must from this day on be  barren and  never  again
reproduce itself in my mind.
It is not a  man blasting  a tree. Everything  in the  Bible takes place  in the
mind of man:  the  tree, the  city, the  people,  everything. There  is not a
statement made in the  Bible that does not represent some  attribute  of
the human mind. They are  all personifications of the  mind and not things
within the  world.
Consciousness is the  one and only reality. There  is no one  to whom we
can turn after  we discover  that our own awareness is God. For God  is the
cause  of all and  there  is nothing  but God. You  cannot say that a  devil
causes some  things and  God others.  Listen to these  words.
"Thus saith the  Lord to his anointed,  to Cyrus, whose  right hand  I have
holden, to subdue  nations before  him; and  I will loose  the loins of kings,
to open before  him the  two leaved gates; and  the gates shall not be
shut."
"I will go before  thee, and  make the  crooked  places straight:  I will
break  in pieces the gates of brass, and  cut in sunder  the bars of iron."
"And I will give  thee the  treasures of darkness, and  hidden riches of se -
cret places, that  thou mayest know  that I, the  Lord, which call thee by thy
name, am the  God of Israel." Isaiah 45:  1, 2, 3.
"I form the  light, and  create  darkness:  I make peace, and  create  evil: I
the Lord do all  these  things." Isaiah 45:7.

stretched  out the  heavens, and  all their host have  I commanded."
"I have  raised  him up  in righteousness, and  I will direct all his ways: he
shall build  my city, and  he shall let go my captives, not for price nor re -
ward, saith the  Lord of hosts." Isaiah   45:12, 13.
"I AM the  Lord, and  there  is none  else, there  is no God  beside  me." Isaiah
45:5.
Read these  words carefully. They are  not my words, they are  the in -
spired  words of men  who discovered  that consciousness is the  only reality.
If I am hurt, I am self hurt. If there   is darkness in my world, I created
the darkness and  the gloom and  the depression. If there is light and  joy, I
created  the light and  the joy. There  is no one  but this I AMness that does
all.
You cannot find  a cause  outside  of your own consciousness. Your world  is
a grand  mirror constantly telling  you who you  are. As you  meet people,
they tell you  by their behavior who you  are.
Your prayers will not be  less devout because  you turn to your own con -
sciousness for help. I do not think  that any person in prayer  feels more  of
the joy, the  piety, and  the feeling  of adoration, than I do when I feel
thankful, as I assume  the feeling  of my wish fulfilled, knowing  at
the same  time it is to myself that I turned.
In prayer  you are called  upon to believe  that you  possess what your rea -
son and  your senses deny. When you  pray believe  that you have and you
shall receive. The  Bible states it this way:
"Therefore  I say unto you, What things soever  ye desire, when ye  pray,
believe  that ye receive  them, and  ye shall have  them.
"And when ye  stand  praying, forgive,  if ye have ought against any:  that
your Father  also which is in heaven may forgive  you your trespasses."
"But if ye  do not forgive,  neither  will your Father  which is in heaven for -
give your trespasses." Mark  11:24, 25, 26.
That is what we must do when we  pray. If I hold  something  against an -
other, be  it a belief of sickness, poverty, or anything  else, I must lose  it
and let it go, not by using  words of denial but by believing  him to be  what
he desires to be. In that way I completely forgive him. I changed  my con -
cept of him. I had  ought against him and  I forgave  him. Complete   forget -
fulness is forgiveness. If I do not forget then I have  not forgiven.
More Free Books Law of Attraction HavenI only forgive  something  when I truly forget. I can say to you  until the
end of time, "I forgive  you." But if every time  I see you  or think  of you, I
am reminded  of what I held  against you, I have  not forgiven you  at all.
Forgiveness is complete  forgetfulness. You  go to a doctor and  he gives
you something  for your sickness. He  is trying  to take it from you, so
he gives you  something  in place  of it.
Give yourself a  new concept of self for the  old concept. Give up the old
concept completely.
A prayer  granted  implies that something  is done  in consequence of
the prayer  which otherwise  would  not have  been done.  Therefore,  I my-
self am the  spring  of action, the  directing  mind and the one who grants
the prayer.
Anyone  who prays successfully turns within, and  appropriates the state
sought. You  have no sacrifice to offer. Do not let anyone  tell you  that you
must struggle  and suffer. You  need not struggle  for the  realization of your
desire.  Read what it says in the  Bible.
"To what purpose  is the  multitude  of your sacrifices unto me  saith the
Lord:  I am full of the  burnt offerings of rams, and  the fat of fed  beasts;
and I delight not in the  blood  of bullocks, or of lambs, or of goats."
"When ye  come  to appear  before  me, who hath required  that at your
hand, to tread  my courts?"
"Bring  no more  vain oblations; incense  is an abomination unto me; the
new moons and  Sabbaths, the  calling  of assemblies, I cannot endure  iniq-
uity and  solemn assembly."
"Your new moons and  your appointed  feasts my soul hates:  they have  be-
come  a burden to me,  I am weary of bearing  them" Isaiah 1:11 -14.
"Ye shall have  a song as in the  night when a  holy solemnity is kept; and
gladness of heart, as when one  goeth with a  pipe to come  into the  moun -
tain of the  Lord, to the  mighty One  of Israel." Isaiah 30:29.
"Sing  unto the  Lord a new song, and  his praise  from the  end of the
earth." Isaiah 42:  10.

water
melted
from
the
ice
and
in
addition
brewed
or
herbal
tea.
To
reduce
the
temperature,
use
an
old
recipe
-
put
a
compress
with
urine
on
the
pulse.
Example:
“When
I
got
the
tremors
in
conditions
of
complete
solitude
and
without
medication,
I
remembered
urine
therapy.
Mother
nature
gave
us
the
best
medicine.
After
a
glass
of
urine,
which
I
drank
at
once,
I
was
well
in
five
minutes.
Nothing
like
that
has
happened
to
me
more
than
once.'
Example:
"It
was
during
the
war.
There
was
no
anti-malaria
medicine
and
the
doctors
said
I
was
going
to
die.
A
single
duralumin
cup
of
urine
drunk
at
once
brought
me
to
my
feet.
The
attack
of
malaria
has
not
recurred.'
Also,
John
Armstrong
in
his
book
"Living
Water"
mentions
the
treatment
of
fever
with
urine:
"The
efforts
of
doctors
to
reduce
the
temperature
by
unnatural
means
only
hinder
nature
in
the
healing
process
and
in
some
cases
even
endanger
the
patient
or
sow
the
seeds
of
future
ailments.
The
high
temperature
is
actually
a
healing
process
given
by
nature
that
it
has
in
the
body
to
destroy
the
sick
person
with
poisons.
They
talk
about
the
miraculous
effects
of
fever
medicine,
but
many
people
die
of
heart
disease
after
just
such
treatment.'
"I
know
from
my
own
experience
that
the
most
effective
and
safe
way
to
treat
high
fevers
is
fasting
while
drinking
urine
and
water.
The
high
temperature
will
always
decrease
in
36
to
37
hours,
and
a
complete
recovery
will
occur
in
a
few
days.
Urine
in
such
patients
is
usually
scanty,
thick
and
unpleasantly
smelling.
This
can
be
explained
by
the
fact
that
the
body
loses
a
lot
of
salts
and
other
necessary
substances.
This
is
associated
with
great
weakness
of
the
patient,
a
feeling
of
emptiness
in
the
head,
delirium,
etc.
Urinotherapy
helps
the
patient
regain
lost
health.
I
have
proved
this
many
times
by
curing
dysentery,
chicken
pox,
mumps,
influenza,
fever
and
other
diseases
with
high
temperature.
There
were
no
complications,
which
are
so
common
with
normal
procedures
treatment
e.g.
mumps
or
rheumatism.
The
complication
is
the
result
of
measures
that
suppress
the
disease,
but
also
the
defenses
of
the
entire
organism,
and
which
destroy
our
body."
These
words
of
Armstrong,
recorded
many
decades
ago,
have
not
lost
their
meaning
even
today.
Use
this
valuable
advice
and
you
will
be
healthy.
Finally,
one
more
simple
but
illustrative
one
example
from
everyday
life:
"My
daughter's
eyes
were
so
festering
that
she
couldn't
open
them
in
the
morning.
Her
eyelashes
were
glued
together.
Therefore,
she
began
to
wash
her
eyes
with
her
own
warm
urine,
and
in
a
few
days
everything
passed."
Urinotherapy
and
fungal
skin
diseases
According
to
Russian
academician
Bolotov,
pathogenic
(disease-causing)
microor ganisms
of
plant
origin
parasitize
humans
and
create
an
alkaline
(putrefactive)
environment
for
their
development.
They
parasitize
especially
in
cases
where
our
acidic
"spacesuit"
is
weakened.
A
simple
strengthening
of
the
acidic
properties
of
the
skin
with
the
help
of
ordinary
urine
leadsto
rapid
healing.
Here
it
is
most
effective
to
apply
compresses
with
urine
on
the
affected
areas.
Example:
"Unfortunately,
I
only
learned
about
the
possibilities
of
urine
therapy
a
year
after
breast
surgery
and
removal
of
lymph
nodes.
After
the
operation,
I
was
irradiated
and
underwent
chemotherapy
three
times.
After
the
third
course
of
treatment,
my
hand
became
very
swollen.
They
told
me
it
was
lymphofibrosis.
They
gave
me
more
medicine,
the
swelling
went
down
a
bit,
but
other
complications
arose
and
I
had
to
stop
the
treatment.
I
started
treatment
with
herbalists,
I
cleansed
my
liver.
But
then,
while
treating
my
hands,
I
poisoned
myself
with
too
concentrated
herbal
decoctions.
I
couldn't
drink
them
anymore.
And
that's
when
I
learned
about
urine
therapy.
I
thought
I'd
give
it
a
try,
I
had
nothing
to
lose.
Without
prejudice
or
difficulty,
I
immediately
started
drinking
100
grams
of
morning
urine.
I
also
wash
her
eyes
and
ears.
I
got
rid
of
the
allergy
almost
immediately.
I
do
mini
enemas
with
evaporated
urine
and
water.
I
massage
my
hands
and
feet
with
morning
urine,
and
after
the
massage
I
apply
compresses
to
the
sick
hand
and
feet
for
1.5
to
2
hours.
My
fungus
is
disappearing,
my
skin
has
stopped
peeling,
my
hand
has
also
improved.
After
only
one
month
of
urine
therapy!'
Recommendation:
Do
not
dilute
the
urine
for
mini-enemas
(with
the
help
of
a
balloon)
with
water,
but
only
evaporate
it
by
half.
Gradually
increase
the
concentration
to
a
third
to
a
quarter.
Example:
"A
kind
of
fungus
appeared
on
my
feet
about
ten
years
ago.
I
treated
her
with
Siberian
stone
oil,
but
not
completely
successfully.
The
infection
remained
under
the
nail
of
the
thumb,
which
had
been
bothering
me
all
these
years.
He
gradually
blackened
and
began
to
relax.
During
the
last
march
in
Siberia,
I
wore
mountain
shoes,
and
after
a
few
days
the
fungus
spread
all
over
my
feet
again.
I
already
knew
about
urine
therapy.
I
washed
my
feet
with
urine
before
going
to
bed.
The
next
day
too
and
that
was
enough
for
the
mold
to
disappear.
After
such
success,
I
began
to
wet
my
feet
often
and
abundantly
with
urine
oil
(urine
evaporated
in
the
sun).
In
a
short
time,
I
eliminated
the
infection
under


	gold	coin	grass.	Use	the	same	directions	as	given	for	those	who
are	intolerant	to	apple	juice.	You	may	try	malic	acid	or	cranberry	juice	during	one	cleanse
and	gold	coin	grass	during	the	next,	to	see	which	works	best	for	you.

A	fourth	alternative	is	apple	cider	vinegar:	mix	1	to	2	tablespoons	in	a	glass	of	water
and	drink	4	servings	per	day,	for	6	days.
	Headache	or	Nausea	During	the	Days	Following	Liver	Cleansing

Most	cases	of	headache	or	nausea	in	the	days	after	a	liver	cleanse	occur	when	the
directions	have	not	been	followed	carefully.	(See	above	section.)	However,	on	some	rare
occasions,	gallstones	may	continue	to	pass	out	of	the	liver	after	completing	a	liver	cleanse.
Some	toxins	released	by	these	stones	can	enter	the	circulatory	system	and	cause
discomfort.	In	such	a	case,	it	may	be	helpful	to	drink	about	4	ounces	of	apple	juice	for	7
consecutive	days,	or	for	as	long	as	the	discomfort	lasts,	following	the	liver	cleanse.	It	is
best	to	drink	the	apple	juice	at	least	½	hour	before	breakfast.	In	addition,	a	repeat	colon
cleanse	may	be	necessary	to	clear	out	any	of	the	late-coming	stones.	The	tissue-cleansing
method	(ionized	water),	as	mentioned	above,	also	helps	to	remove	the	circulating	toxins.
If	you	place	a	small	piece	of	fresh	ginger	into	the	thermos	flask,	drinking	this	water	will
quickly	stop	the	nausea.	Drinking	2	to	3	cups	of	chamomile	tea	per	day	also	helps	to	calm
the	digestive	tract	and	the	nervous	system.	Chamomile	is	also	a	good	“stone-breaker”	of
calcified	stones.
	Feeling	Sick	During	the	Cleanse

If	you	have	properly	followed	all	the	directions	given	in	the	outlined	procedure,	but	still
feel	sick	sometime	during	the	actual	liver	cleanse,	please	do	not	feel	alarmed	that
something	is	wrong.	Although	it	occurs	rarely,	a	person	may	vomit	or	feel	nauseated
during	the	night.	This	happens	when	the	gallbladder	ejects	bile	and	gallstones	with	such
force	that	bile	forces	the	oil	back	into	the	stomach.	When	the	oil,	combined	with	some
bile,	returns	to	the	stomach,	you	are	likely	to	feel	sick.	In	such	an	instance,	you	may	be
able	to	feel	the	expulsion	of	stones.	It	will	not	be	a	sharp	pain,	just	a	mild	contraction.

During	one	of	my	12	liver	cleanses,	I	spent	a	miserable	night.	But,	despite	throwing	up
most	of	the	oil	mixture,	this	cleanse	was	just	as	successful	as	all	the	others	I	had	done.	By
the	time	I	vomited,	the	oil	had	already	done	its	job;	that	is,	it	prompted	the	release	of
gallstones.	If	this	happens	to	you,	remember	that	this	is	only	one	night	of	discomfort.
Recovery	from	conventional	gallbladder	surgery	may	take	many	weeks	or	months.
Surgery	may	also	lead	to	major	pain	and	suffering	in	the	years	to	come.
	The	Liver	Cleanse	Did	Not	Deliver	the	Expected	Results

In	some	cases,	albeit	very	rarely,	the	liver	cleanse	does	not	produce	the	results	you	expect.
The	following	are	the	two	main	reasons,	and	their	remedies,	for	such	difficulties.

Bile	Duct	Congestion

It	is	likely	that	severe	congestion	in	your	liver’s	bile	ducts,	due	to	extremely	dense
structures	of	stones,	has	prevented	the	apple	juice	from	softening	them	sufficiently	during
the	first	cleansing	attempt.	In	some	individuals,	it	may	take	as	many	as	2	or	3	liver
cleanses	before	the	stones	start	coming	out.

Chanca	piedra
,	also	known	as	“stone-breaker,”	can	help	prepare	your	liver	and
gallbladder	for	a	more	efficient	release	of	stones,	especially	if	you	have	calcified	stones	in
the	gallbladder.	Take	20	drops	of	chanca	piedra	extract	(see
Suppliers	List
	in	the
Appendix)	in	a	glass	of	water,	3	times	daily	for	at	least	2	to	3	weeks	before	your	next
cleanse.	Enteric	peppermint	oil,	taken	in	capsule	form,	is	also	very	useful	in	dissolving
calcified	gallstones	or	reducing	their	size.	It	may	not	be	easy	to	find	it	in	pure	form,
though.	It	is	often	mixed	with	other	ingredients,	which	can	reduce	its	effectiveness.

Drinking	2	to	3	cups	of	chamomile	tea	per	day	also	helps	to	dissolve	calcified	stones.

Another	useful	method	to	help	support	the	liver	and	gallbladder	during	the	cleanse,	and
to	encourage	the	release	of	more	stones,	is	to	soak	a	piece	of	flannel	with	heated	apple
cider	vinegar	and	apply	it	to	the	liver/gallbladder	area	during	the	20-	to	30-minute	period
of	lying	still.	Some	people	have	found	increased	benefits	from	doing	this	using	warm
castor	oil	instead.

The	herbs
Chinese	gentian
	and
bupleurum,
	help	to	break	up	some	of	the	congestion	and
can,	thereby,	prepare	your	liver	for	a	more	successful	cleanse.	These	herbs	are	prepared	as
a	tincture.	They	are	more	commonly	known	as	Chinese	Bitters.	(See
Suppliers	List
	in	the
Appendix.)	The	proper	dosage	for	this	tincture	is	½	to	1	teaspoonful	once	daily	on	an
empty	stomach,	about	30	minutes	before	breakfast.	This	regimen	should	be	followed	for
three	weeks	before	drinking	the	apple	juice	(or	using	the	other	alternatives	discussed	in	the
previous	section).	Any	unpleasant	cleansing	reactions	usually	disappear	after	3	to	6	days;
they	can	be	minimized	by	following	the	tissue-cleansing	method	of	using	hot,	ionizedwater	and	by	keeping	the	colon	clean	with	capsules	of	oxyflush,	oxypowder,	colosan,	a
colema,	or	an	enema	(see	Chapter	5).

Another	method	is	to	drink	3	tablespoons	of	undiluted,	unsweetened	lemon	juice,	15	to
30	minutes	before	breakfast	daily	for	one	week.	This	stimulates	the	gallbladder	and	makes
it	ready	for	a	more	successful	liver	cleanse.

Directions	Not	Followed

You	may	not	have	followed	the	directions	properly.	Leaving	out	any	one	item	from	the
procedure,	or	altering	the	dosages	or	timing	of	the	steps	laid	out,	may	prevent	you	from
obtaining	the	full	results.	In	quite	a	few	people,	the	liver	cleanse	does	not	work	at	all
unless	the	large	intestine	has	been	cleansed	first.	The	backup	of	waste	and	gases	cuts	down
adequate	bile	secretion	and	prevents	the	oil	mixture	from	moving	easily	through	the	GI
tract.	In	people	who	are	severely	constipated,	the	gallbladder	may	barely	open	up	during
the	liver	cleanse.	The	best	time	for	a	colonic	irrigation	or	an	alternative	colon	cleansing
method	is	the	day	of	the	actual	liver	cleanse.
	CHAPTER	5


, worn an d emaciated, if the food had been
correct they never would have been carried to the hospital. If the food
served in the hospital is correct the patient will get well and go home.
I am not talking at random, these reports have been experienced
and lived in my own body. When for years I grew weaker till
everybody expected everyday to hear of my passing. It happened that a sick person asked me to go with her to Dr. Harry Brown's office. While there I asked Harry to look me over. Within a few minutes he
told me I had a bad colon, and that I may be too near dead to clean the
colon but if you will change your food and "stay put" you will get
well. That was 27 years ago. Now I am 84 and the only way that I can
believe I am any older is to look up a calendar. All things are possible with the law when it is obeyed. When (as a rule) a fellow is ill, it is
self created. We were placed in th is world to "choose whom we will
serve."
Natural law is God in action. Wh en humanity lives in harmony
with this law it means the end of disturbances—no more ills. Man was made after all other things were ma de. He was given the power to rule,
to have dominion, to choose whom or what he may desire. Whether
good will, hate, health, disease or wars—these, any one of them, may
be had for the asking or determination to secure them. These have no
power within themselves—man must operate them.
What we have been taught, pr acticed and operated must be
eliminated. I say this because the results have not been desirable,
when a thing or method does not work—good sense says discard it—
whether it be political, economical or  food habits. All these have been
a failure. Only a dummy will stay put when in the way of traffic.
Our methods, ideas of life and living have proven a farce. The
disturbances, aches and ills have disturbed th e traffic. We have
reached that place in life where it is  difficult to secure food which
contain the values which promote perfect health. As an example of
one item, bread is the main item of food values. We have reached that
place where bread is no longer the "staff of life" but the means of
creating disease and death, because it is refined. When our popular white bread is used exclusively, it never fails
to produce death before disease ca n appear. The white man does not
use white bread exclusively therefore he lingers with disease. Many of
these diseases become incurable, because the food which produce the
disease is not discarded.
We have now of late years, been told of whole wheat, but is it?
Most of it has been contaminated with chemicals to make it whiter and
fluffy and prevent moulding till it would be better food if left on the
shelf.
The safest way to maintain health and vitality now a days is to
secure a mill of your own or use your friends mill. There is a way to
secure wheat which has not been chem icalized, and of late individual
small mills can be had. Anyone wa nting information will do well to
contact Lee Engineering Company, Milwaukee, Wis. I have one of
these mills, and also a cheaper mill.  One mill grinds fine—the other
grinds coarse for cereal where I use every grain I furnish several of my
friends.
Every family should possess their own individual mill. Dealers in
the community should keep on hand wheat for retail distribution and they will if people who want good  food will co-op with the dealer.
The dealer, grocery or what, can ope rate a mill and grind wheat while
you wait or buy coffee and sugar which is not fit for food.
There is a way to have what anyone wants. We are admonished
to make our choice. Hoping or wishing must be backed by action and
determination. We crea te our worn out soil, we create our denatured
and refined foods which results in bad health and disease. We were
placed here to rule. If we don't want what we have, we should get rid
of it. I discarded my bad health, you can get rid of yours, if you don't
know how, there is a way to find out.
This boomerang, "The Town Without a Tooth Ache" makes me
sore. This slogan was inaugurated b ecause I found so little caries, but
it applies to all diseases. There are no diseases other than what we
create. The parents when supplying raw milk to these children they
did not know this milk would prevent caries. When arthritis, polio or
what have you, develops some one creates it. These disturbances or
happy occasions of whatever nature someone is the creator, but the bad food or rather useless food is not all the cause, but it did not
prevent. Most of our foods are to be eliminated because they have no
immunizing powers. Raw milk is not the only food in the Hereford
area which would prevent dental caries or prevent any other disease.
The reason I discovered this was Dr. C. A. Pierle, Ph. D. gave me the hunch. Raw milk being the only food used the year round, therefore, I gave my attention to milk—heated m ilk being particularly dead milk,
will not prevent any disease.
All good food is supposed to contain plenty of immunizing
values, but our popular foods today have been refined, adulterated and
heated till its immunizing powers have been destroyed which opens the gate leading to the cemetery.
 GENERAL CAPTION:
On the following pages are photographs of eight representative
Hereford citizens who have lived here for most of their lives and, as
the accompanying mouth photographs demonstrate, have lived to
middle age or older, with perfect sets of teeth.
With but one exception, all the persons in the group have been
heavy milk drinkers from their childhood up. Most of them like
buttermilk and drink lots of it. All ta ke their milk raw. It is produced
on mineral-rich Deaf Smith County grass and feedstuff.
Practically all these persons regularly eat fresh, home-grown
vegetables and eat raw vegetables and raw fruit right along. Most of
them eat meat either sparingly or moderately. Nearly all live on white
bread from milled flour. Thereby they lose the most valuable body-
building minerals which, the spectograph analysis shows our home-
grown wheat to contain. But to offset that they get the missing
minerals in raw milk. All of them eat sparingly of sugar, candy and
other sweets.
My theory—which the diet preferences of these people bear out,
I believe—is that if people would grow  their food in completely fertile
soil, like Deaf Smith County has, and would eat that food raw, they
would have no dental decay and little sickness. The reason why milk
is so effective in preventing tooth decay is that it is taken raw. People
prefer cooked food because they have trained themselves to like it, not
because food is better cooked. If th ey set their minds to it, people
could learn to like most of their food raw. Then they would live longer
and keep their teeth sound into old age.

LEE CONKLIN

Mr. Conklin, 54 years old, has lived in Hereford since he was 9.
He consumes about the average amount of meat but lives largely on
fresh vegetables from the home garden. He likes all kinds of
vegetables raw—and all kinds of raw fruit. He drinks more than the
average quantity of milk, both raw sweet and buttermilk. He was a
heavy milk drinker as a boy. He likes candy but eats it sparingly. He
does not use a toothbrush.

CHARLES HODGES

A native of Texas, Mr. Hodges, 78 years old, has lived in
Hereford for 53 years. He has never been on a diet but has eaten meat
only moderately. Mostly, he has lived on fresh vegetables out of the
home garden and he likes all kinds of vegetables raw. Mr. Hodges
drinks sweet milk regularly in larg e quantities. He likes buttermilk and
drank a lot of it when young. He has never used a toothbrush or
dentrifice.

MILES ROBERSON

Born in Cleburne, Mr. Roberson has lived in Hereford for 50 of
his 56 years. He has never been on a diet. He has eaten meat
moderately; but fresh home-grown vegetables freely, both raw and
cooked. He drinks plenty of raw sweet milk and buttermilk, too. He
had all the sweet milk he could drink as a child.


 power is increased, but most of it is being used for rebuilding the more
important organs and less of it is available for muscular work.
Any weakness which is felt here is not true weakness, but merely a re-deploying of forces to the more important internal
parts.
Here it is important for the person to stop wasting energy, and to rest and sleep more. This is a crucial phase, and if the
person resorts to stimulants of any kind, he will abort and defeat the regenerative intent of the body. It is important that he
have patience and faith here and just wait it out, and after a while he will get increasing strength which will exceed by far
what he felt before he began the new program.
Success in recovery or improvement of health hinges upon the correct understanding of this point - realizing  that the body is
using its main energies in more important internal work and not wasting it in external work involving muscle movements. Be
wise - take it easy here and relax. Just coast in your work and social obligations until you're out of the woods.
As one continues on the improved diet and gradually raises the food quality, interesting symptoms begin to appear.  The
body begins a process called “retracing.”
The cellular intelligence reasons something like this - “Oh! Look at all these fine materials coming in. How wonderful - now
we have a chance to get rid or this old garbage and build a beautiful new house. Let's get started immediately. Let's get this
excess bile out or the liver and gall bladder and send it to the intestines for elimination. Let's get the sludge moving out of
the arteries, veins and capillaries. These smelly, gassy, brain-stupefying masses have been here too long - out with them!
These arthritic deposits in the joints need cleaning up! Let's get these irritating food preservatives, aspirins, sleeping pills
and drugs out of the way, along with these other masses of fat which have made life so burdensome for us for so long. Let's
get going till the job is done - till we have a beautiful house - and from there on we'll keep it a beautiful ideal model house."

1. During the first phase - called Catabolism  - the accent is on elimination, or breaking down of tissue. The body begins to
clean house - to remove the garbage deposited in all the tissues - everywhere. During this period the body removes the
ashes from the furnace preparatory to getting a better fire.  Here the accentuation is on removal of the gross and
immediate body obstructions. Wastes are discarded more rapidly than new tissue is made from the new food. This
becomes evident as weight loss.

2. This persists for awhile and is then followed by the second phase - called Stabilization. Here the weight remains more
or less stable. During this phase, the amount of waste material being discarded daily is equal to the amount of tissue
which is being formed and replaced by the newer, more vital food. This occurs after the excess of obstructing material
in the tissues has been removed.

3. This stage persists for a while and is then followed by a third phase - a building-up period called Anabolism,  wherein
weight starts to go up, even though the diet is lower in calories than it was before. At this point, much or most of the
interfering wastes have already been discarded - the tissues which have been formed since the diet was raised in
quality are more durable and do not break down easily. Also new tissues are now being formed faster. This is due to
the improved assimilation  and increase of enzyme efficiency which resulted from the recuperation of the digestive
mechanism - made possible by the ceasing of wrong food-combining. The body's need for the usual amounts of food
decreases, and we are able to maintain our weight and increased energies with less food. Many are able to function
very efficiently on two meals a day, and eventually even on one meal a day.
As the body progressively increases in efficiency and decreases in tissue breakdown under exercise, so do we gradually
need less and less food to maintain life.
The higher the percentage of raw food one lives on, the slower the rate of tissue deterioration which one evolves into. A
sick body requires a gradual carefully worked-out entry into this stage - where one is able to live on a 100% unfired (raw)
diet.
Returning to the symptoms which occur on a superior nutritional program - people who have had tendencies in the past to
recurring skin rashes or eruptions will frequently tend to eliminate poisons and harmful drugs through the skin with new
rashes or eruptions. If they go to a physician now who is not familiar with this aspect of nutrition, he will diagnose it as an
allergy.
They ask. "How come I'm eating better now than I ever did before, and instead I'm getting worse?" They don't understand
that the body is “retracing”.
The skin is getting more alive and active. It's throwing out more poisons more rapidly now that the body is building more
power which is saved from those hard-to-ingest meals which have been discontinued.
These toxins being discarded are saving you from more serious disease which will result if you keep them in your body too
much longer - possibly hepatitis, kidney disorders, blood disease, heart disease, arthritis, nerve degenerations or even
cancer - depending upon your structural weaknesses. Be happy you're paying your bills now on an easy-payment plan.
With some, colds which haven't appeared for a long time may occur, or even fevers. This is nature's way of housecleaning.
Understand that these actions are constructive, even though unpleasant at the moment. Don't, but don't, try to stop these
symptoms by the use of certain drugs, or even massive doses of vitamins, which will act as drugs in huge concentration.
These symptoms are part of a remedial process. Don't try to “cure” the remedial process! These are not deficiency
conditions or allergic manifestations - not if you're eating properly in quality, quantity, combination and sequence.
Here is where experienced advice is of great value. Unfortunately, there are few books present today which give full
guidance to the average reader. Try to find guidance through a doctor or teacher who has the requisite experience in this
most confusing of all subjects - Nutrition in relation to health and disease.
BODY PURIFICATION CAN BE A LONG DRAWN OUT PROCESS
You may he eating perfectly in regard to quantity, quality and observing all the correct rules, and still symptoms will occur.
Those who have lived better lives in the past - who have eaten better foods and who have abused their bodies less with
overeating will have reactions ranging from almost none at all or very mild symptoms which may be uncomfortable or acute.
Those who have lived worse lives and poisoned themselves more will experience more severe symptoms - if their liver,
kidneys, or other important eliminating organs have been damaged. When they have been renovated to the point of fair
working order, they will no longer produce symptoms.
Headaches may occur at the beginning. Fever, colds, the skin may break out, a short interval of bowel sluggishness,
occasional diarrhea, feelings of tiredness and weakness, disinclination to exercise, nervousness, irritability, negativity or
mental depression, frequent urination, also may occur.
However, the great majority of people find their reactions tolerable and are encouraged to bear with them, because of the
many improvements which have already occurred and are becoming more evident with each day. This acts as an
inspirational force to them.
copyright © Dr. Stanley S. Bass   (718) 648-1500    www.drbass.com 12The symptoms will vary according to the materials being discarded, the condition of the organs involved in the elimination
and the amount of energy you have available. The more you rest and sleep when symptoms are present, the milder they
are and the more quickly they are terminated. Be happy you are having symptoms.
Realize deeply  that your body is becoming younger and healthier every day, because you are throwing off more and more
wastes which would eventually have brought pain, disease and much suffering.
Those who have the worst symptom-reactions and follow through to their successful termination are thus avoiding some of
the worst diseases which would eventually have developed had they continued their careless eating habits.
BLISSFUL STATE OF HEALTH COMES EVENTUALLY
Don't expect to go on an ascending scale of quality, that improving your diet will make you feel better and better each day
until you reach perfection. The body is cyclical in nature. and health returns in a series of gradually diminishing cycles.
For example - you start a better diet and for a while you feel much better. After some time, a symptom occurs - you feel
nauseous for a day and have diarrhea with a foul-smelling stool. After one day you feel even better than before and it goes
fine for awhile. Then you suddenly develop a cold, feel chills and lose your appetite. After about two or three days
(assuming you don't take drugs or do anything else about it), you suddenly recover and feel better than you did for years.
Let us say this wellbeing continues for two months, when you suddenly develop an itch or rash. You don't take anything
special for it. This rash flares up, gets worse and continues for ten days, and suddenly subsides. Immediately after this you
find that your hepatitis is gone and your energy has increased more than ever before. The rash became an outlet


 relation to the relative incidence of
facial and dental arch deformities among primitive natives and modernized natives.
    It will be easy for the reader to be prejudiced since many of the applications suggested are not
orthodox. I suggest that conclusions be deferred until the new approach has been used to survey
the physical and mental status of the reader's own family, of his brothers and sisters, of associated
families, and finally, of the mass of people met in business and on the street. Almost everyone who
studies the matter will be surprised that such clear-cut evidence of a decline in modern
reproductive efficiency could be all about us and not have been previously noted and reviewed.
    It is important to preface the observations by constructing a mental pattern of physical
excellence from the pictures of the various primitive groups and, with this yardstick or standard of
normalcy, observe our modern patterns. Certain preconceived ideas may have to be modified, as
for example, that based on the belief that what we see is due to heredity or that deformity is due to
mixing of races. If so, why should the last child in a large family generally suffer most, and often be
different in facial form; or why should there be these changes in the later children, even in pure
racial stocks, after the parents have adopted our modern types of nutrition? Although the causes of
physical degeneration that can be seen easily have been hard to trace, the defects in the
development of the brain, which affect the mind and character, are much more obscure, and the
causes of mental degeneration are exceedingly difficult to trace. Much that formerly has been left to
the psychiatrist to explain is now rapidly shifting to the realm of the anatomist and physiologist.7/29/13 Nutrition and Physical Degeneration
gutenberg.net.au/ebooks02/0200251h.html#toc 11/250    Those contributions of the past cultures which have blended agreeably into our modern
experience have been accepted with too little questioning. Much ancient wisdom, however, has
been rejected because of prejudice against the wisdom of so-called savages. Some readers may
experience this reaction to the primitive wisdom recorded in these chapters.
    The writer is fully aware that his message is not orthodox; but since our orthodox theories have
not saved us we may have to readjust them to bring them into harmony with Nature's laws. Nature
must be obeyed, not orthodoxy. Apparently many primitive races have understood her language
better than have our modernized groups. Even the primitive races share our blights when they
adopt our conception of nutrition. The supporting evidence for this statement is voluminous and as
much of it as space permits is included in this volume. The illustrative material used is taken from
the many thousands of my negatives which are available. Photographs alone can tell much of the
story, and one illustration is said to be worth as much as one thousand words.
    Since the problem of applying the wisdom of the primitives to our modern needs concerns not
only health workers and nutritionists, but also educators and social workers, the data are
presented without technical details.
    While many of the primitive races studied have continued to thrive on the same soil through
thousands of years, our American human stock has declined rapidly within a few centuries, and in
some localities within a few decades. In the regions in which degeneration has taken place the
animal stock has also declined. A decadent individual cannot regenerate himself, although he can
reduce the progressive decadence in the next generation, or can vastly improve that generation, by
using the demonstrated wisdom of the primitive races. No era in the long journey of mankind
reveals in the skeletal remains such a terrible degeneration of teeth and bones as this brief modern
period records. Must Nature reject our vaunted culture and call back the more obedient
primitives? The alternative seems to be a complete readjustment in accordance with the controlling
forces of Nature.
    Thinking is as biologic as is digestion, and brain embryonic defects are as biologic as are club
feet. Since both are readily produced by lowered parental reproductive capacity, and since Nature
in her large-scale human demonstration reveals that this is chiefly the result of inadequate nutrition
of the parents and too frequent or too prolonged child bearing, the way back is indicated. Like the
successful primitive racial stocks, we, too, can make, as a first requisite, provision for adequate
nutrition both for generation and growth, and can make provision for the regulation of the
overloads. We, like the successful primitives, can establish programs of instruction for growing
youth and acquaint it with Nature s requirements long before the emergencies and stresses arise.
This may require a large-scale program of home and classroom instruction, particularly for the high
school girls and boys. This would be in accordance with the practice of many of the primitive races
reported upon in the following chapters.
    If the individuals in our modern society who are sufficiently defective to require some
supervision are in part or largely the product of an injured parentage, who should be held
responsible? Is it just for society to consign these unsocial individuals which it has made to a life of
hard labor or confinement in depressing environments? Is it just for society to permit production of
physical and mental cripples? Many primitive races apparently have prevented the distortions
which find expressions in unsocial acts. If so, cannot modern society do this by studying and
adopting the programs developed through centuries of experience by the primitives? Nature uses a
written language which, without the keys, is made up of meaningless hieroglyphics, but which, with
the proper keys, becomes a clear story of racial and individual history. The hieroglyphics indicate
racial and individual disaster for modernized groups who heed not the warning story. The primitive
races have some of these keys and have used them successfully in avoiding many of the disasters
of our modern society. The following chapters record many of the excellent practices of the
primitives and they are presented here with the hope that they will be helpful in a program designed
to relieve mankind of some of the misfortunes common in the present social order and to prevent
disorders for future generations of civilized peoples.7/29/13 Nutrition and Physical Degeneration

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Chapter 2
THE PROGRESSIVE DECLINE OF MODERN CIVILIZATION
THAT modern man is declining in physical fitness has been emphasized by many eminent
sociologists and other scientists. That the rate of degeneration is progressively accelerating
constitutes a cause for great alarm, particularly since this is taking place in spite of the advance that
is being made in modern science along many lines of investigation.
   Dr. Alexis Carrel in his treatise "Man, the Unknown" states:
    Medicine is far from having decreased human sufferings as much as it endeavors to make us
believe. Indeed, the number of deaths from infectious diseases has greatly diminished. But we
still must die in a much larger proportion from degenerative diseases.
After reviewing the reduction in the epidemic infectious diseases he continues as follows:
    All diseases of bacterial origin have decreased in a striking manner.... Nevertheless, in spite
of the triumphs of medical science, the problem of disease is far from solved. Modern man is
delicate. Eleven hundred thousand persons have to attend the medical needs of 120,000,000
other persons. Every year, among this population of the United States, there are about
100,000,000 illnesses, serious or slight. In the hospitals, 700,000 beds are occupied every day of
the year.... Medical care, under all its forms, costs about $3,500,000,000 yearly.... The
organism seems to have become more susceptible to degenerative diseases.
   The present health condition in the United States is reported from time to time by several
agencies representing special phases of the health program. The general health problem has been
thoroughly surveyed and interpreted by the Surgeon General of the United States Public Health
Service, Dr. Parran. Probably no one is so well informed in all of the phases of health as is the
head of this important department of the government. In his recent preliminary report (1) to state
and local officers for their information and guidance, he presented data that have been gathered by
a large group of government workers. The report includes a census of the health conditions of all
the groups constituting the population of the United States--records of the health status and of the
economic status of 2,660,000 individuals living in various sections, in various types of communities,
on various economic levels. The data include records on every age-group. He makes the following
interpretations based upon the assumption that the 2,660,000 offer a fair sampling of the
population, and he indicates the conclusions which may be drawn regarding conditions of status for
the total population of some 130,000,000 people.
    Every day one out of twenty people is too sick to go to school or work, or attend his
customary activities.
    Every man, woman and child (on the average) in the nation suffers ten days of incapacity
annually.
    The average youngster is sick in bed seven days of the year, the average oldster 35 days.
    Two million five hundred thousand people (42 per cent of the 6,000,000 sick every day) suffer
from chronic diseases-heart disease, hardening of the arteries, rheumatism, and nervous
diseases.
    Sixty-five thousand people are totally deaf; 75,000 more are deaf and

The Sympathetic Nervous System
The sympathetic nervous system sends messages that in general accelerate or speed up our
activities.
The Parasympathetic Nervous System
The parasympathetic nervous system sends messages t hat in general retard or slow down our
activities.
Three Groups — Ten Types
The autonomic nervous system plays a major role in the classification of the metabolic types.
The ten metabolic types have been arranged into thr ee groups:
1.  Group A, which includes the Sympathetic Dominant Metabolic Types: One, Four, and
Six.
2.  Group B, which includes the Parasympathetic Dominant Metabolic Types: Two, Five,
and Seven.
3.  Group C, which includes the Balanced Sympathetic/Parasympathetic  Metabolic Types:
Three, Eight, Nine and Ten.
Group A — Sympathetic — Vegetarian Types
Group A metabolizers are classed as Types One, Four  and Six. These types have very strong or
dominant sympathetic nervous systems. These types h ave very strong functions of the brain,
pineal, anterior pituitary, parathyroid, thyroid, a nd adrenal medulla glands; heart, bone, muscle
and connective tissue, kidneys, gonads (ovaries or testes), and uterus or prostate. Their muscles are usually quite well developed and show good musc le tone. Their hearts normally beat a little
fast. Constipation is an ever-present plague. Frequ ently insomnia is a problem. Tension,
hyperactivity and drive are their plight.

General Nutritional Guidelines for Sympathetic Domi nant Vegetarian Types (Group A)
Of this group, Metabolic Type Six’s require the mos t nutritional support, the greatest number and
strength of vitamins, minerals, enzymes and other n utritional factors that help the vegetarian
type. Type One’s require the second greatest nutrit ional support. Type One’s need the support
that slows down the sympathetic nervous system and speeds up the parasympathetic nervous
system. Type Four metabolizers need the least nutri tional support of this vegetarian class — they
are the closest of the three to becoming balanced t ype metabolizers.
For nutritional support, Sympathetic Dominant Metab olizers most often need: Vitamin D;
Vitamin K; Ascorbic Acid; Biotin; Folic Acid; Vitam ins B1, B2 and B6; PABA; Niacin;
Potassium; Magnesium; Manganese; Zinc; Chromium; Hy drochloric Acid; Pancreatic Enzymes
and Amino Acids. Each of the vegetarian Types (One,  Four and Six) need these supplements, but
each type needs different amounts and different rat ios.
Metabolic Type One
Type One metabolizers come the closest of all the t ypes to being purely sympathetic dominant
people. One of the chief characteristics of Type On e metabolizers is that they can burn
carbohydrates slowly. Their bodies utilize the carb ohydrates poorly and they are able to maintain
their blood sugar level with very little fluctuatio n. If anything, their blood sugar level stays a
little elevated. With this condition, they can eat mostly fruits and vegetables, maintaining their
health and feeling well. These people are what are commonly called vegetarians. They very seldom if ever crave meats (except fish) and when t hey eat meat, they usually feel groggy and
have a loss of energy. These people do not do well on lamb, venison, beef, sardines or salmon.
They can do quite well on up to 100% of their diet raw. They should stress the following foods:
whole grains including spaghetti, macaroni, breads,  cereals; raw (unpasteurized) goats’ milk,
eggs; white fish. They may use spices, 2-3 cups of coffee (non-instant), herbal tea, or an
occasional alcoholic beverage or sweet dessert (mad e with unrefined sugar or raw, unheated
honey). They enjoy and do well on nuts and seeds; r ice; fruits and vegetables like apples,
apricots, bananas, berries, grapes, oranges, pears,  plums, grapefruit, asparagus, lima beans, beet
tops, cucumbers, sprouts, lettuce, collards, dandel ion greens, kale, mustard, turnip greens,
spinach, and any leafy green vegetable.
Metabolic Type Four
Type Four metabolizers are people who have strong s ympathetic nervous systems but not nearly
as strong as the Type One’s. Type Four’s are a litt le more balanced or non-strict vegetarians.
These people usually have a genetic background of t heir ancestors coming from around the
Mediterranean Sea — Spanish, Italian, Greek, Israel i, Arabic, etc. Type Four’s burn or
metabolize their carbohydrates and sugars a little faster than the Type One’s. The Type Four’s
that tend toward having diabetes can normally contr ol it with diet alone.
To maintain optimum health, Type Four’s do well on fish, chicken, turkey, other fowl, beef (two
times a week), almost all vegetables, a little frui t, sprouts, some citrus, eggs, and raw,


 this was given by Shankara, the greatest philosophical
mind in the V edic tradition:
A man is walking down the road in the evening and sees a
large snake coiled in the dust. He runs away terriﬁed and
stirs up everyone with his cries of “Snake, snake!” The
people of his village are also terriﬁed; the women and
children don’t want to go outside because of the snake, and
normal life begins to be overshadowed by everyone’s
apprehension. Then a brave person resolves to look at this
snake. He asks the ﬁrst man to take him to it, and when
they get there, what they ﬁnd is not a snake but a rope
coiled in the middle of the road. All our fears, Shankara
said, have been built up from just such a delusion. In fact,
nothing real can be separated from what we tell ourselves
is real.
—This line of reasoning is not speciﬁcally Indian— it can be
easily adapted to a modern frame of reference. Think of
what happens when two bar magnets come together with
their north poles facing each other. The magnetic ﬁeld
repels them apart. If these were thinking magnets, they
would “feel” something solid in between themsel ves. They
would create touch out of an abstraction, just as we all do.
The reason why, when you touch it, an object feels soft,
hard, ragged, smooth, et cetera, is that such an
interpretation is made in your brain. Essentially, the ﬁve
senses are just tools. Touch is really the brain reaching out
into the world, using specialized nerve cells to register
certain information—a very narrow band, we must
remember, which is entirely diﬀerent from what a snake
“touches” when its tongue ﬂicks the air.
Similarly, the nerve endings coating the retina of your
eye are also extensions of the brain. Structurally, the retina
is just a pool of nerve endings fanning out like the frayed
end of a rope, the rope being the optic nerve, which
gathers a million separate nerve ﬁbers into one bundled
cord. Even though they are located deeper inside you than
the nerve endings under  your skin, the eye’s sensory cells
are also “touching” the outside world. There is no intrinsic
diﬀerence between the ﬁeld of light contacted by your eye
and the energy ﬁeld you touch with your ﬁngers—the real
distinction between seeing and touching is made in the
brain. And so it goes for every other sense: hearing,
smelling, and tasting involve specialized cells that send
impulses directly to the brain for interpretation, and
without that interpretation nothing could exist.
All things in existence are tied to our senses, and our
senses are tied to our brains. The commonsense notion that
“this chair is hard to the touch” is not true, until you
restate it as “this chair is hard because my brain  made it
that way.” (The chair is not hard at all to a cosmic ray,which zips through it like air. A neutrino zips through the
whole Earth with equal ease.) Using this insight, the rishis
went even further. They noticed that you do not have to
touch an object physically  to know how it feels. Answer this
question: Which is softer, a starched linen napkin or a rose
petal? You can easily compare the two in your mind, using
an image of touch, withou t having to go out and ﬁnd a real
napkin and a real rose.
The reason why you can do this is that you have gone to a
subtler level of the sense of touch. Similarly, there are
subtle sound s, sights, smells, and tastes. However, this
level of the mind is not the end—in meditation, one can
reach even further back, beyond the ﬁve subtle senses
(called the Tanmatras  in Ayurveda), until one arrives at
consciousness in its uniﬁed state—the Vedic texts compare
this to following the hand’s ﬁve ﬁngers back to where they
join at the palm. Subjectively, the visual image of a rose
would grow fainter and fainter on the screen of the mind,
until nothing was left but the screen itself. Then one would
be at the true origin of the senses, the ﬁeld of intelligence
itself. In this way, the rishis reasoned, the whole world of
physical reality comes into being.
We seem to be in deep philosophical waters here, but in
fact every layer of touch, sight, hearing, smell, and taste
inﬂuences our ordinary lives. If you like to eat oysters and I
detest them, the diﬀerence is not in the oyster or in our
taste buds. The contact between the molecules of the
oyster and the taste receptors in our mouths is the same
for both of us. Yet, in the process of tasting, your delight
insinuates itself, and so does my disgust. All the raw data of
experience must pass through the ﬁlter of intelligence, and
no two people appraise it in exactly the same way.
When someth ing seems to change in the world, the rishis
said, it is really you that is changing. A friend of mine, also
Indian, is a surgeon who has gained a reputation for beingrather a gourmet. His specialty is omelets, the more exotic
the better. The last time we had Sunday brunch together,
however, he didn’t order an omelet. Curious, I asked him
about it, and he said, “I can’t stand the taste of an omelet
anymore.” It turned out that his liking for them had
changed instantly, earlier that week.
He was stirring up an omelet at home while his 6-year-old
son, Arjun, looked on. As each egg was cracked, my friend
tossed the shell aside. By chance a few of them fell into a
small brown bag of birdseed that was going to be set out
for the sparrows.
“Oh, don’t do that,” Arjun said seriously. “The birds will
think their babies have died, and they won’t want to eat.”
My friend is usually proud of his boy’s precocious remarks,
but all at once he couldn’t abide the taste of the omelet he
was making, or any other. Science would be at a loss to
measure the change that occurred in him, because it is too
ghostly and too individual. The idea that an omelet tastes
good has no more weight than that it tastes bad. The same
is true of every other sensation. Is a goose-down pillow
soft? Not to someone with a migraine, who groans with
pain when his head touches it. Does a jet move fast? Not if
you view it from the moon. In short, there is no end to the
way a sense impression can be interpreted, and no end to
the ways that the body can respond to it.
—
The rishis said that life is built up by your participation in
it. Nothing is good or bad, hard or soft, painful or pleasant,
except as you live it. The same is true of disease. A disease
is not the molecular contact of some outside organism with
the molecules of your body. (As we saw, even if you put a
drop of concentrated cold virus into a person’s nose, his
chances of getting a cold are no more than one in eight.) It
is not even the ﬂow of toxins in your blood or the action ofrunaway cells. In the rishis’ view, a disease is a sequence of
moments that you live through, during which you appraise
every iota of the vast input that comes pouring in from all
quarters of your world, including your body.
Your body is a world, too. When I ﬁrst came to Ayurveda,
I was deeply impressed  by the following verse in the
ancient texts:
As is the human body, so is the cosmic body.
As is the human mind, so is the cosmic mind.
As is the microcosm, so is the macrocosm.
—
These words are subject to many interpretations. What
they signify to me is that when I go about my everyday
existence, I am in charge of two worlds, the little one in me
and the big one around me. My appraisal of every minute
detail “out there”—the sun, the sky, the chances of rain, the
words other people say, the shadows cast by oﬀice
buildings—is matched by an event “in here.” Inﬁnite choice
is open at every second for me to alter the shape of the
world, for it has no shape other than what I give it. The
eminent neurologist Sir John Eccles stated this quite
clearly when he wrote, “I want you to realize that there is
no color in the natural world and no sounds—nothing of
this kind; no textures, no patterns, no beauty, no scent…”
In short, nothing is so important about the univers e as your
participation in it.
The rishis’ subjective approach found an enormously
useful outlet in Ayurveda. Ayurveda is commonly classiﬁed
as a system of medicine,  but with equal


 tissue breakdown under exercise, so do we gradually
need less and less food to maintain life.
The higher the percentage of raw food one lives on, the slower the rate of tissue deterioration which one evolves into. A
sick body requires a gradual carefully worked-out entry into this stage - where one is able to live on a 100% unfired (raw)
diet.
Returning to the symptoms which occur on a superior nutritional program - people who have had tendencies in the past to
recurring skin rashes or eruptions will frequently tend to eliminate poisons and harmful drugs through the skin with new
rashes or eruptions. If they go to a physician now who is not familiar with this aspect of nutrition, he will diagnose it as an
allergy.
They ask. "How come I'm eating better now than I ever did before, and instead I'm getting worse?" They don't understand
that the body is “retracing”.
The skin is getting more alive and active. It's throwing out more poisons more rapidly now that the body is building more
power which is saved from those hard-to-ingest meals which have been discontinued.
These toxins being discarded are saving you from more serious disease which will result if you keep them in your body too
much longer - possibly hepatitis, kidney disorders, blood disease, heart disease, arthritis, nerve degenerations or even
cancer - depending upon your structural weaknesses. Be happy you're paying your bills now on an easy-payment plan.
With some, colds which haven't appeared for a long time may occur, or even fevers. This is nature's way of housecleaning.
Understand that these actions are constructive, even though unpleasant at the moment. Don't, but don't, try to stop these
symptoms by the use of certain drugs, or even massive doses of vitamins, which will act as drugs in huge concentration.
These symptoms are part of a remedial process. Don't try to “cure” the remedial process! These are not deficiency
conditions or allergic manifestations - not if you're eating properly in quality, quantity, combination and sequence.
Here is where experienced advice is of great value. Unfortunately, there are few books present today which give full
guidance to the average reader. Try to find guidance through a doctor or teacher who has the requisite experience in this
most confusing of all subjects - Nutrition in relation to health and disease.
BODY PURIFICATION CAN BE A LONG DRAWN OUT PROCESS
You may he eating perfectly in regard to quantity, quality and observing all the correct rules, and still symptoms will occur.
Those who have lived better lives in the past - who have eaten better foods and who have abused their bodies less with
overeating will have reactions ranging from almost none at all or very mild symptoms which may be uncomfortable or acute.
Those who have lived worse lives and poisoned themselves more will experience more severe symptoms - if their liver,
kidneys, or other important eliminating organs have been damaged. When they have been renovated to the point of fair
working order, they will no longer produce symptoms.
Headaches may occur at the beginning. Fever, colds, the skin may break out, a short interval of bowel sluggishness,
occasional diarrhea, feelings of tiredness and weakness, disinclination to exercise, nervousness, irritability, negativity or
mental depression, frequent urination, also may occur.
However, the great majority of people find their reactions tolerable and are encouraged to bear with them, because of the
many improvements which have already occurred and are becoming more evident with each day. This acts as an
inspirational force to them.
copyright © Dr. Stanley S. Bass   (718) 648-1500    www.drbass.com 12The symptoms will vary according to the materials being discarded, the condition of the organs involved in the elimination
and the amount of energy you have available. The more you rest and sleep when symptoms are present, the milder they
are and the more quickly they are terminated. Be happy you are having symptoms.
Realize deeply  that your body is becoming younger and healthier every day, because you are throwing off more and more
wastes which would eventually have brought pain, disease and much suffering.
Those who have the worst symptom-reactions and follow through to their successful termination are thus avoiding some of
the worst diseases which would eventually have developed had they continued their careless eating habits.
BLISSFUL STATE OF HEALTH COMES EVENTUALLY
Don't expect to go on an ascending scale of quality, that improving your diet will make you feel better and better each day
until you reach perfection. The body is cyclical in nature. and health returns in a series of gradually diminishing cycles.
For example - you start a better diet and for a while you feel much better. After some time, a symptom occurs - you feel
nauseous for a day and have diarrhea with a foul-smelling stool. After one day you feel even better than before and it goes
fine for awhile. Then you suddenly develop a cold, feel chills and lose your appetite. After about two or three days
(assuming you don't take drugs or do anything else about it), you suddenly recover and feel better than you did for years.
Let us say this wellbeing continues for two months, when you suddenly develop an itch or rash. You don't take anything
special for it. This rash flares up, gets worse and continues for ten days, and suddenly subsides. Immediately after this you
find that your hepatitis is gone and your energy has increased more than ever before. The rash became an outlet for the
poisons in the liver which produced the hepatitis.
This is how recovery occurs - like the cycles in the Dow-Jones Average at the beginning of a bull market recovery.
You feel better, a reaction occurs and you don't feel as well for a short while. You recover and go even higher.
And so it goes, each reaction milder than the last as the body becomes purer, each becoming shorter in duration, feeling
better than ever before, until you reach a level plateau of vibrant health.
Here you become relatively disease-free and are filled with ever-increasing joy, life and the happiness which comes from
sheer well-being. The mind opens up and expands to ever-higher horizons and your soul will shout for joy. You begin to
love the world, the universe and everything in it. This is the natural state of the mind - blissful, joyful and at peace with the
universe - and it can only be attained by alignment with biological laws.
The first laws we must learn to obey are the laws of Nature. We must learn to eat simple pure and natural foods, properly
prepared and combined, and our bodies in return will cast off all the evil we have taken in during our lives. Nowhere is the
principle of forgiveness of sins more manifest than here - in our own bodies - when we forsake our evil and destructive
ways of eating (the defiling of the temple of the soul). God (or Nature, if you please) gives us a whole new chance for a new
glorious life.
All repentance must begin here in the body, through pure diet and natural foods. Then, just have faith, sit back and watch
what happens. Before your own eyes, you will daily see signs that will cause you to wonder at this vast intelligence in
operation that staggers the comprehension.
The mysteries of the body, the operations of Nature, the vital forces working in Nature and the Cosmos are far beyond what
our minds are prepared to understand at present.
Every great physician or scientist who ever lived marveled in awe and humility at the wonders of nature. Yes - we are
"Fearfully and Wonderfully Made."
Let us give ourselves a chance to experience what it means to be really healthy and fully ALIVE - to feel the joy of living by
aligning ourselves to (God’s) Nature’s laws as intended for man, through the eating of natural (normal) foods. This indeed is
the prime prerequisite in man’s physical, mental and spiritual unfoldment.

Finally, I would like to include a brief case-history of a most impressive recovery from “How I Overcame Inoperable Cancer”

A MOST INTERESTING CASE OF RECOVERY FROM CANCER ON ONE
MEAL A DAY ON A RAW FOOD REGIMEN
by Wong Hon Sun
The following is from the book How I Overcame Inoperable Cancer by Wong Hon Sun, ND,
with a forward by Dr. Ralph Bircher (Exposition Press, Hicksville, N.Y. 1975).
copyright © Dr. Stanley S. Bass   (718) 648-1500    www.drbass.com 13 At the age of 32, Wong Hon Sun found himself to be a victim of a critical form ( anaplastic  epidermoid  carcinoma) of nose
and throat cancer, large and inoperable, in 1960, and by employing principles of natural healing on his own initiative, made
an unexpected complete recovery (as confirmed by medical checkups), with no recurrence of any symptoms of the disease
for the past 14 years.
 Before he began his self-care, he had a lump at the back of his throat which began to interfere with both his speech and
swallowing. He was constitutionally anemic, had chronic nasal catarrh with intermittent nose bleeds, was extremely
emaciated


 rinse
your mouth, and gargle morning and evening.  It helps with thrush and to
prevent colds and other infections, and also tooth decay. With vaginal
thrush douche twice daily with suitably diluted hydrogen peroxide, keep
it inside for some time, and f ollow up by applying some probiotic.
Probiotics
This leads us to the next step: replacing the decimated pathogenic
microbes with desirable lactobacilli. This is best done in a big dose 30 -
60 minutes after each flush; otherwise,  the unwanted microbes may just
grow back to full strength after the next meal.
Acidophilus culture is used to repopulate the freed -up spaces at the walls
of the small intestines, while bifidobacteria are the protective inhabitants
of the colon or large intestines. There are also other lactobacteria
naturally residing in our intes tinal tract. These bacterial cultures are
available from health food shops or the Internet and best refrigerated
before and after sale.
It is difficult to find a good culture. As a general rule look for a product
that
▪ has been grown on seeds and vegetabl es rather than on milk,
▪ has a large variety of different bacterial strains, and…
▪ has been produced and is used at temperatures from 3 6 to 40°C.
However, dry cultures are dormant and inactive as compared to bacteria
in fresh or live ferments. Therefore,  you may experiment with making
your own ferment. Initially you may use dry cultures as starter or buy
fresh ferments over the Internet. F or recipes  and supplies using kefir
grains  see: users.chariot.net.au/~dna/kefirpage.html  or for grain and 58
 vegetable ferments:  www.agmfoods.com. I do not recommend
commercial yogurt to sanitize the intestinal tract.
Caution:  Some individuals with Candida are highly sensitive to all
fermented foods.
Fermented liquids, such as Kefir or Kombucha, tend to be rather acidic
and this can cause overacidity problem s in sensitive individuals. You can
reduce this problem by partly neutralizing the acidity with sodium
bicarbonate, magnesium carbonate, magn esium oxide or dolomite
powder.
Prebiotics
Prebiotics or the food that we provide for our intestinal flora is usually
even more important than the relatively few probiotic bacteria that we can
supply as supplements. These nutrients determine which microbial
species will thrive and which ones will n ot do well. The easily digestible
carbohydrates from sugar and grain products favour Candida and other
yeasts but can also lead to overgrowth of various bacteria in the small
intestines.
The most suitable microbes for intestinal sanitation are on the skin s of
fresh raw organic vegetables and berries, and these also provide the
perfect nutrients for their microbes to keep growing in our intestinal tract.
This is how we evolved. You may clean the leaves in water but do not
add any microbicides. Best puree (w ith energised water) in a high -speed
blender and also use fresh veggie salads.
Commercially available soluble but indigestible fibre, called FOS or
fructosoligo -saccharides, helps to stimulate the growth of beneficial
intestinal bacteria. While preferable to simple carbohydrates for our
intestinal flora, FOS can also be used by some pathogenic bacteria in
the colon.
Legumes  are high in a type of soluble fibre, raffinose, that is only broken
down in the large intestines. It is an excellent food for bifidoba cteria.
Raffinose  is also found in members of the cabbage family, asparagus
and other vegetables.  59
 As a side -effect, legumes tend to produce wind or flatulence which can
be reduced by sprouting or soaking overnight and  replacing the water
before cooking. T his also improves the absorption of minerals by
reducing the amount of phytic acid in the seeds. Lentils and peas cause
fewer problems than beans but  sprouted mung beans are also good.
When soaking beans add a few drops of Saturated Solution of Potassium
Iodide or SSKI to inactivate an enzyme inhibitor that causes increased
wind.
Inulin  is another supplement to feed bifidobacteria in the colon. It i s a
fine white powder with a slightly sweet taste. The usual intake of inulin is
from 5 to10 grams or 1 to 2 teaspoons once or twice daily. Increase
gradually as it may cause loose bowels and increased wind or flatulence.
This cannot be entirely avoided bu t experiment to keep it in acceptable
limits. Also,  the amount of inulin needs to be adjusted according to the
amount of legumes used which can create an additional gas problem.
Inulin is widely distributed in vegetables, and especially their roots. The
highest amounts are in Jerusalem artichokes, chicory roots, onions,
leeks, artichokes and dandelion leaves.
Very beneficial is resistant starch or RS. It feeds mainly the microbes
in the colon, good for preventing or treating inflammatory bowel diseases
and colon cancer. You get RS by adding a small raw potato (avoid any
with green skins) when blending vegetables. To make isolated RS blend
some peeled potatoes and refrigerate. After a short time,  the RS granules
accumulate at the bottom and you can pour off t he liquid. 100g of raw
potato provides a recommended daily amount of 25g RS.
For a good article on RS see Resistant -Starch  at
www.gestaltreality.com/2014/02/27/resistant -starch -a-concise -guide/
Increased wind is a common drawback with all prebiotics. This can be
minimized by only slowly increasing the amounts of prebiotics and  using
psyllium before breakfast and possibly other m eals. Psyllium reduces
wind by removing toxins and excess microbes.

MICROBES & PARASITES
Eliminate Harmful Microbes & Parasites

All chronic diseases, including cancer and autoimmune diseases are
associated with a proliferation of pathogenic microbes and parasites.
Due to antibiotics, steroidal drugs, birth control pills and chemotherapy
our natural intestinal bacteria have been ba dly damaged, and pathogenic
microbes, especially fungi and mycoplasmas, are out of control.
Also,  microbes from childhood vaccinations may still be present, and
there tend to be infection foci in root -canal treated teeth and often in
scars from surgery. A ll of these greatly weaken our immune system and
allow pathogenic microbes to invade the blood and internal organs. Now
we become susceptible to frequent infections and immune disturbances
such as autoimmune diseases, allergies, diabetes, heart disease and
cancer.
This can only be reversed by keeping fungi and other microbes under
control to give the immune system a chance to recover. Therefore,
antimicrobial therapy is essential at the start of a holistic health program.
But fungi are very tenacious and ha ve ways to stay in hiding as spores
or protected by biofilms, and when we become careless or stressed, they
may try again to invade the blood. This means we need to continue for a
long time with a low -key antimicrobial maintenance program, and step it
up periodically, or whenever we are under prolonged stress or notice any
undesirable microbial activity.
INFECTIONS AND IMMUNE SUPPORT
Often casual viral or bacterial infections re -ignite conditions that were
previously under control, such as diabetes or autoimmune diseases.
Therefore, whenever there is an acute infection or a flare -up of a chronic 61
 problem, it is advisable to take strong antimicrobial action immediately.
Greatly increase the strength and variety of antimicrobial remedies, and
in addition use any of the following measures that seem to be
appropriate.
Fever  is a great help in fighting infections by killing heat intolerant germs
and strengthening the immune response. Keep it up with hot baths, hot
teas and sweating. Very high temperatures may be reduced with cold
packs around the calves, cool baths and blue li ght. If the fever is too
concerning seek professional help. During an acute infectious disease
use mainly a light diet with plenty of raw food as salads and juices.
Viral infections:  in addition to general antimicrobial methods also use  a
high intake of vitamin C, selenium and zinc. Take 5 x 2g of sodium
ascorbate or buffered vitamin C, 3 x 15 - 20mg of zinc, 200mcg of
selenium, up to 3 x 2g of L -lysine and up to 3 x 200mg of alpha -lipoic
acid. With hepatitis also add silymarin/milk thistle. In life -threat ening
situations try intra -venous vitamin C in addition to bowel tolerance
vitamin C and high doses of CDH (see below under MMS).
Bladder infections:  Take the simple sugar D -mannose, half to one
teaspoon in water every 2 to 3 hours; this eliminates infecti ons based on
E-coli within a few days. If it does not help then try 15 drops of a saturated
solution of potassium iodide (SSKI)

          Mind:  The Master Power

In the remaining chapters of this book, I wish to share a
variety of universal tools that can help fertilize the rich inner life within all of us, that creates, attracts, prospers, and expands our
outer life experiences.  I had the good fortune of reading Charles Roth’s book, Mind:  The Master Power, while journeying
the path of a deliberate seeker – on a quest for spiritual meaning
and inner prosperity.  In my ow n life, I have felt the amazing,
creative, and life-giving power of  gratitude.  And when I read
the above quote in Roth’s book, I was immeasurably touched  by the power of this profound statement.  This is a man, a
reverand, who was teaching a kind of new age consciousness, years before many had begun to embrace these rising thoughts and engaging concepts about who we really are.  Rev. Roth presents five core talents in his book, that he believed we all possess right now, that can launch our life experiences into the
world of the extraordinary.  I wo uld like to briefly include them
in this chapter, and then I will add a few of my own.  These are
simply instruments, or tools, for our expanding non-physical toolbox, that I believe collectively can nurture our spirit and allow us to rise within - to the full potentiality of our infinite magnificent nature.    In Mind:  The Master Power, Rev. Roth presented the
biblical parable about the talents.  In this parable,  there are three
servants.  The first servant was given five talents.  The second servant was given three talents.  And the third servant was given one talent.  The first tw o servants used/invested their
talents, and increased them.  But the third servant held onto his talent, guarding it closely, becaus e he was afraid of losing it.
Yet, it was the servants who used their talents, and thus increased
their talents, that were given more.  And it was the servant who Innate Talents 65
clung to his talent - with the paralysis of fear, who had it taken
away and given to the servant with ten talents.
To me, this story so perfec tly illustrates a manifestation
of the non-physical laws of th is grand universe.  When we
choose, consciously or unconsciously, to resist the divine design of the magnetics and energetics of a vibrational universe, we lock ourselves out of the prosperous flow of our divine well-being.  Yet if we could  choose, consciously, to turn toward the
possibility of expansion, then we could live the benefits of
increased understanding, in term s of our life’s purpose and our
existence here within this physical universe.  We can learn how
to consciously, and I would say choice-fully, navigate this
tremendous potentialit y of experiences on the earth plane, in
order to maximize our great talents and to enjoy the prosperity of living in the flow of the divin e design as much as possible.

because we have forgotten the grand design /G20/G01/G01/G21/G10/G01/G02/G16/G01/G1C/G02/G10/G0B/G01
increased understanding that this universe begins to make a lot more sense.  With an increase in understanding, we can expand
beyond the level of consciousness that conceptualizes experiences as being fair/u nfair, right/blame-worthy,
good/bad, and lucky/randomly bad luck.  We can then expand our understanding that we, as spiritual beings, have a non-physical desire for expansion, which is activated through our
life choices of thought, feeling, action, and belief.  All choices create experiences, dense or light, which in turn facilitate this
desired expansion.  And so again,  all roads ultimately lead us
back to the truth of our infinite connection to each other, to Source energy, and to the expone ntial expansive flow of divine
love - that is the inherent en ergetic fabric that is woven
throughout the cosmos.
That said, Rev. Roth expands the “talents” parable,
by asking us to think about five talents, or “extraordinary potentialities,” that we all posse ss within us right now.  He
suggests that these innate potentialities can be used and /G03/G0C/G13/G05/G04/G01/G05/G11 /G09/G01/G10/G07/G01/G04/G26/G0D/G12/G03/G11/G01/G12/G03/G11/G01/G11/G04/G04/G0D/G04/G03/G01/G07/G08/G05/G01/G04/G26/G0D/G04/G05/G02/G04/G03/G13/G04/G01/G07
