). Pepsin is
acidic in nature and is designed primarily for initial protein breakdown.
The stomach chyme, enriched with proenzymes (although some aredormant from the acid action of HCL), is dropped from the stomach into the
duodenum (the first part of the small bowel), and alkaline digestive enzymes
(such as amylase, lipase, protease, and cellulose) are then released from the
pancreas. Amylase breaks down starch, lipase works on fat, protease handles
protein, and cellulose digestive enzymes attend to cellulose. The pancreas also
produces trypsin and chymotrypsin as well as peptidase, which are a part of
the protease family. These are alkaline enzymes that finish protein digestion
or break down peptides and polypeptides into amino acids.
It is essential for the pancreas to produce sodium bicarbonate
(bicarbonate ions) and for the liver/gallbladder to produce bile, as both of
these substances alkalize and sanitize the predigested food particles from the
stomach. If the tissues of these organs are congested, weak, or impaired in
such a way that these alkalizing principles are restricted or blocked from entry
to the small bowel, the duodenum stays overly acidic, and inflammation and
ulceration of the duodenum are the result. An over-acidic environment also
destroys or neutralizes the alkaline digestive enzymes of the pancreas,
virtually stopping proper digestion. This leads to starvation at the cellular
level as other enzymes and parasites become involved, because fermentation
and putrefaction now takes over the digestive process.
Studies undertaken at Yale University and other research facilities have
shown that enzymes, including digestive enzymes, are produced by many
cells in the body (not just the saliva, stomach and pancreas). It has been
demonstrated, for example, that white blood cells can supply amylase as well
as proteolytic-type enzymes. What an incredibly intelligent machine your
body is! I say “machine” with all due respect to the fact that each and every
cell is an individual part of God, with its own individuality and
consciousness.
We have been talking about endogenous enzymes, those produced in the
body. However, we also must consider a second category of enzymes
essential to life—the exogenous enzymes that are external to the body, and
found in foods. Exogenous enzymes play a vital role in assisting the body in
breaking down these foods into use-able building materials.
Food enzymes are vital to the health of the physical body. Without them
health begins to decline. Man still does not understand why these food
enzymes are so important when we have our own digestive enzymes. But the
body must have
the support of these food enzymes for the process of
digestion and utilization to properly take place.Enzymes are destroyed when subjected to temperatures starting from
110–130 degrees Fahrenheit and above. Lower temperatures can also destroy
enzymes if the food is cooked for long periods of time. When we cook our
foods, we are destroying the life-giving properties within them, including the
enzymes. Remember: no other animal on this planet cooks its food before
eating it. If we feed animals cooked foods they become sick and die, and
veterinarians will tell you to never feed your animals from the table because
they will get the same diseases we do.
SUPPLEMENTING WITH DIGESTIVE ENZYMES?

The sale of digestive enzyme supplements is big business these days, and
there are companies that support their use by advocating live blood-cell
analysis and other diagnostic tools. We all have digestive weaknesses to some
extent, and especially if the pancreas is weak. If you are thin and can’t put on
weight; or you have diabetes or hypoglycemia; or you see undigested foods
in your stools (except corn); then you should consult with your healthcare
practitioner about regenerating your pancreas.
Relying on supplemented digestive enzymes on a regular basis can
eventually shut down your pancreas. Nonetheless, in some extreme or
chronic conditions, it may be advisable to take digestive enzymes with every
other meal or every third or fourth meal. Only take them for short periods of
time, until you can restore normal pancreatic and intestinal function.
Definitely stop taking them when you eat raw, uncooked foods. Wean
yourself from them until you are only using them with cooked, hard-to-digest
foods. Then stop entirely. If you are eating all cooked, acidic foods, you may
need to add
occasional
 digestive enzymes, since cooking your food destroys
its enzymes and puts the total burden of digestion upon your body.
Consuming your foods
juiced
 and/or eating them
raw
 will help tremendously
in revitalizing your pancreas and yourself.
It is beyond the scope of this book to explore further on the subject of
enzymes as biocatalysts. However, it is enough to reiterate that life begets life
and death begets death. Without enzymes we have death.
Enjoy the natural flavors of fresh, whole, ripe and raw foods. God has
given us a smorgasbord of foods and the ability to obtain them. Seek out
organic, fresh and raw, enzyme-rich foods, as enzymes are the keys to life.
No
matter from which angle we view health and disease, we cannot
escape from being entangled in the conclusion that intractable disease is
as old as cookery. Disease and cookery originated simultaneously.
— Dr. Edward Howell,
Enzyme Nutrition

MODULE 3.5
Vitamins (Co-Enzymes)

From the beginning, humans ate primarily whole foods or so-called “natural”
foods, which underwent no processing. The nutrient content of food is
decreased when it is processed. Intensive animal rearing, manipulation of
crop production, and food processing have altered the qualitative and
quantitative balance of nutrients of foods consumed by the Western world.
This change is possibly one of the reasons that chronic, debilitating diseases
are rampant in our modern culture. Modern research suggests that simply
taking a synthetic multi-vitamin/mineral formula does not change this.
Research from around the globe asserts that vitamins in their naturally-
balanced state are essential for better assimilation, synergistic action, and
maximum biological effect. And yet most consumers buy vitamins and
minerals that are synthetic, which their bodies usually can’t assimilate
properly. The U.S. National Academy of Science, Food and Nutrition Board,
recommends that people meet their daily nutritional needs through a varied
diet rather than through vitamin and mineral supplementation. Vitamin and
mineral supplements—even those with 100% of the Recommended Dietary
Allowances (RDAs) for vitamins and minerals—cannot provide all the other
nutrients that the body gets from a well-balanced diet.
About Vitamins

Too much vitamin supplementation causes acidosis.
Vitamin C is acidic, leaches out calcium, and lowers beneficial
cholesterol.Do not megadose anything, especially oil soluble vitamins.
Supplementation of separated constituents can lead to imbalances in your
body’s chemistry.
Artificial vitamins accumulate in your tissues causing obstructions and
toxicity.

This  series  of books  is dedicated  in deepest  Eternal  Love
and Gratitude  to our Beloved  Ascended  Masters,  Saint
Germain,  Jesus,  Nada,  the  Great  Divine  Director,  to
the Great  White  Brotherhood,  the  Brotherhood  of the
Royal  Teton,  the  Brotherhood  at Mount  Shasta,  the
Great  Ones  from  Venus,  and  those  other  Ascended
Masters  whose  Loving  Help  has been  direct  and  without
limit. TRIBUTE  v
IN offering  a Tribute  of Love  and  Gratitude
to the Great  Ascended  Masters  and  Cosmic  Be-
ings  who  have  brought  forth  this  Ascended
Master  Instruction  of the "I AM,"  we give  all we are
and have,  or ever  hope  to be or have,  into  Their  Ser-
vice of the  Light  forever!
The Privilege  of carrying  Their  Light  to mankind
is the Greatest  Privilege  that  can  ever  come  to any  hu-
man  being  in this  World,  and  never  in all Eternity
could  we give  back  to Them,  a full  balance  for all
They  have  given  us; because  there  is no balance  for
Eternal  Freedom,  since  It is the Great  Mastery  of Life
and the Limitless  Power  and  Perfection  of all Light.
To know  these  Great  Ascended  Masters  and  Cos-
mic Beings  as we do, in Their  Visible,  Tangible,  Liv-
ing, Breathing  Ascended  Master  Bodies,  is worth  all
the struggle  and  suffering  of all lives  we have  ever  lived
on this  Earth.  They  are wholly  Divine,  absolutely  Lim-
itless,  Free  Beings,  and  to have  the Privilege  of Their
Visits,  Instruction  and  Direction,  is the Greatest  Joy
that can  come  to anyone  in this  World,  o.utside  of his
or her  own  Ascension.
The time  is not far distant  when  once  again,  as in
the former  Golden  Ages,  They  will  move  among  man-
kind,  known,  loved  and  obeyed  by all humanity,
vi TRIBUTE vii
because  of the Help  which  They  must  release  to this
World,  if it is to survive  and  fulfill  Lifes  Plan  for its
Perfection.
Perfection  is the Goal  of every  person,  place,  con-
dition  and  thing  in this  Universe;  and  the Ascended
Masters  are  the  more  advanced  Part  of Life,  in the
Raising,  Perfecting  Activity  for this  World  and  all
mankind.
To know  of these  Ascended  Masters,  send  your  love
to Them,  and  give  Them  your  attention,  means  to
draw  back  Their  Great  Love,  Help  and  Blessings  into
yourself  and  your  world.
To know  Them  is to love  Them.
To associate  with  Them  is to serve  Them  and  co-
operate  with  ThemI
To see Them  is to obey  Them  in Eternal,  Loving
Gratitude.
To call  to Them  is to draw  Their  Assistance  to help
consume  all human  limitations.
To be in Their  Blessed  Presence  fills  any  sincere,
constructive  individual  with  just one  overwhelming  im-
pulse;  and  that  is to be all They  are,  and  help  others
to become  like  Them  also.
To the  "Mighty  I AM  Presence,"  the  Great  Host
of Ascended  Masters,  and  Great  Cosmic  Beings,  be-
longs  all Credit,  all Power,  all Glory,  all Praise  for
the success  of this  Mighty  Ascended  Master  Instruc-
tion of the  "I AM"! TRIBUTE  vii
This  is Their  "I AM"  Activity  and  Their  Power  of
Light  which  sets  mankind  Free.  Humanity  cannot  sur-
vive on this  Earth  without  Them  and  Their  Help;  for
They  have  held  the  Power  of Light  throughout  the
ages,  when  mankind's  destruction  of each  other  would
have  destroyed  even  the Planet  and  also  the activities
of nature  upon  it.
To our  Beloved  Ascended  Master  Saint  Germain,
be Eternal,  Limitless  Love  and  Gratitude,  for giving
mankind  the  Light  within  the  Books  of the  Saint
Germain  Series,  and  showing  the  individual  how  to
use the Law  of Life  to attain  Perfection.  May  every
human  being  on Earth  know  who  Beloved  Saint
Germain  really  is, what  He has done  for the Freedom
of mankind,  and  how  great  His  Love  pours  out con-
stantly  for the  Freedom  and  Perfection  of all!
Beloved  Saint  Germain  is the Law  of

  58  SUMMARY

Living should be a wonderful experience. The best and most important things in life
should be free and effortless. When we are born our bodies are perfect and they should
stay in a perfect state of health as long as we want.

We are 100% responsible for the state of our health (all our diseases). We also have
complete power to improve our health and free ourselves from any  disease.

There are no incurable diseases, only distorted knowledge, misinformation and our
limited understanding of what our mind and body are doing and why.

Rather than applying a separate remedy to each disease, it is possible to cure  ALL
diseases. Normalising weight, curing cancer, getting rid of allergie s, infections, acne,
arthritis, tobacco, alcohol and other addictions, stopping and even partially reversin g
the ageing process etc.., is possible in the ONE simple process, described here. I t is
easy and nearly effortless. Anyone can do it. You will gain respect of everybod y around
you when you do it.

There are no miracles. Performing so called “miracles” is just using t he knowledge.
You don’t need to believe. You need to know.

We doubt everything and everybody, except our Own Ignorance
Master Ching Hai

Warning : the side effect of restoration of perfect health is gaining acc ess to the
unlimited potential of your mind. You have a choice.

The Self that Lord Krishna teaches about in the Bhagavad-Gita  is an
eternal aspect of human nature that transcends all individuality, all change
in time and space. Speaking of the immortal “dweller in the body,” Krishna
declares,
Weapons cannot cut him,
Fire cannot burn him,
Water cannot wet him,
Wind cannot blow him away....
He is eternal and pervading everything,
Subtle, immovable, and ever the same.
What is important here is that the Self is a real experience.  It is not an
ideal, far removed from ordinary reality—which is how most of us think of
the soul—but as close to you as breath. The Self is love’ s source, and
therefore it is more real than the things that block love—anger, fear,
egotism, insecurity, and mistrust. Those qualities, however widespread they
may be in socie ty, are temporary; they grow up over time and have to be
learned. The Self, by contrast, is secure in peace and safety; it knows only
love because its experience is only of love.
When you interact with another person, you are free to feel anything,
from the deepest hatred to the deepest love. You may be repelled orattracted; you can convey rejection or acceptance. But at the level of the
Self, you always meet another person in love.
The person you love r eflects your shar e of universal love. If you learn to look deep enough, you
will see that your r eality is only love.
In a famous passage the V edas declare,
As is the microcosm, so is the macrocosm,
As is the atom, so is the universe.
As is the human body, so is the cosmic body,
As is the human mind, so is the cosmic mind.
This verse can be simplified to a few words: you are the univers e. Whatever
a person sees in his or her surroundings, from the smallest detail to the
largest panorama, is that person. Reality is a mirror of the soul.
The Vedic tradition divided the world into reality and illusion. Illusion, or
Maya, is composed of transient forces and events. Reality is formed of
spirit. Thus the task set for every  person was to pierce the veil of illusion in
order to discover the spirit in everything. The same task is set before us
now.
Materialism has no room for an assertion like that. After having written
more than a dozen books about the conjunction of mind and body, which
seemed radical a few years ago, I now find myself witness to the weakness
of materialism on all fronts. What is a healing prayer but a successful
attempt to abolish the distinction  between inner and outer reality? What is a
spontaneous remission of cancer but the material body’ s obedience to wisps
of intention entertained by the mind? Einstein’ s physics tells us that
everything that appears solid to our senses is actually 99.999 percent empty
space. The classic Eastern metaphysical description of a spiritual reality
standing behind an empty material illusion suddenly seems very plausible.
My cosm ic grandmother was the person who taught me that the angels
eternally pull against the demons. In her worldview the angels always win
—the world of love is ultimately the one we are born to live in. My
experience has also given me hope that this is true, and out of that hope I
decided to write this book about love.Darkness, however terrible, never fully extinguishes the spark  of light.
One of the most moving love stories I’ve ever read happened between two
enemies in the Holocaust. A devout Catholic was suffering in a hideous
medical “experi ment” being conducted at Auschwitz. She was a young
woman, and as it happened the doctor who presided over her clinical torture
was also a woman, which somehow made her sadism all the more
horrifying. Death came slowly, but at last it came. The young woman
whispered unint elligibly, and the doctor, assuming she was uttering a curse,
drew back. The young woman reached out. She struggled to lift something
from her neck and managed at the last moment to hold it out to her
tormentor. “For you,” she was whispering as she handed her rosary to the
doctor, a last blessing as she departed the world.
Such a story arouses a surge of hope amidst the tears. We woul d all like
to believ e that one redeemed soul can help redeem another, even in the
depths of terrible darkness. If that is true, then love’ s power is as great as
spiritual teaching tells us it is.
I am not proposing in this book that we simply go back in time and adopt
Indian metaphysics—that would be impossible, given the vast changes in
culture over the past few thous and years. Instead I propose that the Vedic
sages were the first to map a path to love, which they called a Sadhana. A
path implies a beginning and an end. In this case the beginning is a reality
in which love is longed for but uncertain, swamped by fear and anger,
overwhelmed by the counterforce of hatred. The end is a reality where
nothing exists but love.
What r emains now is the deepest healing of all, the healing of love.
OceanofPDF.comLOVING  PRACTICE
Making a Soul Bar gain
HEALING THE SPLIT  between love and spirit is the goal of this book, and
periodically I will give practical suggestions to that end. Usually these
“loving practices” are directed  to the reader, but I recommend, where
possible, that you and your beloved both try them.
The first loving practice address es doubts you may have about whether a
“higher” love has any kind of accessible reality. To someone who has never
fallen in love, you cannot prove that the experience exists. There is no
power in words to evoke passion ate romantic love, just as the fragrance of a
rose is meaning less however beautifully you describe it. How much more
alien, then, is the love promised by union with spirit? Look at the following
list of things that love is suppo sed to accomplish, expanded from the list
that appeared earlier in the text:
Love is meant to heal.
Love is meant to renew.
Love is meant to make us safe.
Love is meant to inspire us with its power.
Love is meant to make us certain, without doubt.
Love is meant to oust all fear.
Love is meant to unveil immortality.
Love is meant to bring peace.
Love is meant to harmonize dif ferences.
Love is meant to bring us closer to God.
Even if this list strikes you as unrealistic, or wildly overblown,  I want you
to make  a bargain with love—a soul bargain— that any or all of these things
will come true for you.
Take a piece of paper and write down what you want from love. If it is a
real force, if it is attuned to who you are, love will respond. Make your listas comp lete and specific as you can. I suggest writing down every entry
from the preceding list and beside it just what you want. For example:
Love is meant to heal.
I want to heal my anger toward my father. I want to heal the love I
couldn’ t give to my children when they needed it. I want to heal my hurt
over losing my friend X.
Love is meant to r enew.
I want to feel renewed enthusiasm for my work. I want to renew the
sexual feelings I have for my wife. I want to renew my sense of being
young.
Love is meant to make us safe.
I want to feel safer with other people. I want to feel safe when I go
outdoors for my morning run. I want to feel safe from having X reject me if
I tell him I love him.
Love is meant to inspir e us with its power.
I want my love to be powerful. I want to use all my own power with love.
I want to express love when I feel it and not give in to lower emotions like
fear and anger.
Once you are satisfied that you have detailed everything you want—and
don’t feel afraid to ask too much—the bargain is complete. Put the piece of
paper away in a safe place. You have announced to your soul what you
want, and it is up to love to respond. Love is intelligent and aware; it knows
you better than you know yourself. Therefore it has the power to fulfill its
side of the bargain. Rest easy and be attentive over the next few months.
Don’ t dwell on your list or try to make it come true. There is nothing you
need to do except this:
When you feel love, act on it. Speak your heart. Be truthful. Remain open.This is how you align yourself  with love. At the end of a few months,
take out your list and read it over. Ask yourself how much has come true. I
won’ t say that you will be amazed at what love has actually done—although
many people are—but you will certainly be surprised. Actually asking for
love is one of the most difficult things for anyone to risk, and by risking it
first in your heart, you open a door that will never close again.
OceanofPDF.comIN OUR LIVES
There’ s Somebody Out There
“I KNOW WHA T you’re thinking,” Delaney said. “You think I’m too choosy,
right? But I don’t think I’m asking that much. It’s not that she has to be
drop-dead gor geous or


 to neutralize it. If you completely entrusted your self to
its wonderworking  power, you would be entirely restored to health.
• How to get the subconscious to work for you
The first thing to realize is that your subconscious mind is al ways
working. It is active night and day, whether you act upon it or not.
Your subconscious is the builder of your body, but you cannot
consciously perceive or hear that inner silent process. Your busi ness is
with your conscious mind and not your subconscious mind. Just keep
your conscious mind busy with the expectation of the best, and make
 46  sure the thoughts you habitually think are based on whatsoever thi ngs
are lovely, true, just, and of good report. Begin now to take c are of
your con-scious mind, knowing in your heart and soul that your
subcon-scious mind is always expressing, reproducing, and
manifesting according to your habitual thinking.
Remember, just as water takes the shape of the pipe it f lows
through, the life principle in you flows through you according to the
nature of your thoughts. Claim that the healing presence in your
subconscious is flowing through you as harmony, health, peace, joy,
and abundance. Think of it as a living intelligence, a lovely
companion on the way. Firmly believe it is continually flowing
through you vivifying, inspiring, and prospering you. It will respond
exactly this way. It is done unto you as you believe.
• Healing principle of the subconscious restores atrophied  optic
nerves
There is the well-known, duly authenticated case of Madame Bire of
France, recorded in the archives of the medical department of
Lourdes, France. She was blind; the optic nerves were atrophi ed and
useless. She visited Lourdes and had what she termed a mira culous
healing. Ruth Cranston, a Protestant young lady who investigated and
wrote about healings at Lourdes in McCalls magazine, November,
1955, writes about Madame Bire as follows: “At Lourdes she rega ined
her sight incredibly, with the optic nerves still lifeless  and useless, as
several doctors could testify after repeated examinations. A month
later, upon re-examination, it was found that the seeing mechanism
had been restored to normal. But at first, so far as medical
examination could tell, she was seeing with ‘dead eyes.’”
I have visited Lourdes several times where I, too, wit-nessed some
healings, and of course, as we shall explain in the next c hapter, there
is no doubt that healings take place at many shrines throughout the
world, Christian and non-Christian.
 47  The waters of the shrine did not heal Madame Bire, to whom we
just referred, but by her own subconscious mind, which responded to
her belief.
The healing principle within her subconscious mind responded to
the nature of her thought. Be-lief is a thought in the subconscious
mind. It means to accept something as true. The thought accepted
executes itself automatically.
Undoubtedly, Madame Bire went to the shrine with expectancy and
great faith, knowing in her heart she would re-ceive a heali ng. Her
subconscious mind responded accordingly, releasing the ever-pres ent
healing forces. The subconscious mind, which created the eye, can
certainly bring a dead nerve back to life. What the creativ e principle
created, it can recreate. Accord-ing to your belief is it done unto you.
• How to convey the idea of perfect health to your subconscious
mind
A Protestant minister I knew in Johannesburg, South Africa, told me
the method he used to convey the idea of perfect health to his
subconscious mind. He had cancer of the lung. His technique, as give n
to me in his own handwriting, is ex-actly as follows: “Severa l times a
day I would make certain that I was completely relaxed menta lly and
physically. I relaxed my body by speaking to it as follows, ‘My  feet
are relaxed, my ankles are relaxed, my legs are relaxed, my a bdominal
muscles are relaxed, my heart and lungs are relaxed, my head is
relaxed, my whole being is completely relaxed.’ After about f ive
minutes I would be in a sleepy drowsy state, and then I affirme d the
fol-lowing truth, ‘the perfection of God is now being expressed
through me. The idea of perfect health is now filling my sub-
conscious mind. The image God has of me is a perfect image, and  my
subconscious mind recreates my body in perfect accord-ance wi th the
perfect image held in the mind of God.’” This minister had a
remarkable healing. This is a simple easy way of conveying  the idea
of perfect health to your subconscious mind.
 48  Another wonderful way to convey the idea of health to your
subconscious is through disciplined or scientific imagina-tion. I told a
man who was suffering from functional paralysis to make a v ivid
picture of himself walking around in his office, touching the des k,
answering the telephone, and doing all the things he ordinarily woul d
do if he were healed.
I explained to him that this idea and mental picture of perfe ct health
would be accepted by his subconscious mind.
He lived the role and actually felt himself back in the off ice. He
knew that he was giving his subconscious mind some-thing definite  to
work upon.
His subconscious mind was the film upon which the picture was
impressed.
One day, after several weeks of frequent conditioning of the m ind
with this mental pic-ture, the telephone rang by prearrangement  and
kept ringing while his wife and nurse were out. The telephone wa s
about twelve feet away, but nevertheless he managed to answer  it. He
was healed at that hour.
The healing power of his subconscious mind responded to his
mental imagery, and a healing followed.
This man had a mental block, which prevented impulses from the
brain reaching his legs; therefore, he said he could not wal k. When he
shifted his attention to the healing power within him, the powe r
flowed through, his focused attention, enabling him to walk.
Whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall recei ve.
MATT. 21:22.
• Ideas worth remembering
1. Your subconscious mind controls all the vital processes of  your
body and knows the answer to all problems.
2. Prior to sleep, turn over a specific request to your subc on-scious
mind and prove its miracle-working power to yourself.
 49  3. Whatever you impress on your subconscious mind is ex-pressed
on the screen of space as conditions, experiences, and events.
Therefore, you should carefully watch all ideas and thoughts
entertained in your
conscious mind.
4. The law of action and reaction is universal. Your thought is
action, and the reaction is the automatic response of your
subconscious mind to your thought. Watch your thoughts!
5. All frustration is due to unfulfilled desires. If you dwell on
obstacles, delays, and difficulties, your subconscious mind res ponds
accordingly, and you are blocking your own good.
6. The Life Principle will flow through you rhythmically and
harmoniously if you consciously affirm: “I believe that the
subconscious power which gave me this desire is now fulfill- ing it
through me.” This dissolves all conflicts.
7. You can interfere with the normal rhythm of your heart, lungs,
and other organs by worry, anxiety, and fear. Feed your subconscious
with thoughts of harmony, health, and peace, and all the functions of
your body will become nor-mal again.
8. Keep your conscious mind busy with the expectation of the best,
and your subconscious will faithfully reproduce your habitual
thinking.
9. Imagine the happy ending or solution to your problem, feel the
thrill of accomplishment, and what you imagine and feel will be
accepted   by your subconscious mind and bring it to pass.

Mental Healings in Ancient Times
Down through the ages men of all nations have somehow
instinctively believed that somewhere there resided a healing  power
which could restore to normal the functions and sensa-tions of man’s
body. They believed that this strange power could be invoked under
certain conditions, and that the alleviation of human suffering would
follow. The history of all nations presents testimony in support of this
belief.
In the early history of the world the power of secretly in-f luencing
men for good or evil, including the healing of the sick, was said to be
possessed by the priests and holy men of all nations. Healing of the
sick was supposed to be a power derived directly by them f rom God,
and the procedures and processes of healing varied throughout th e
world. The healing processes took the form of supplications to  God
attended by various cere-monies, such as the laying on of hands,
incantations, the applica-tion of amulets, talismans, rings, r elics, and
images.
For example, in the religions of antiquity priests in the anci ent
temples gave drugs to the patient and practiced hypnotic sugg estions
prior to the patient


 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 enemas during a water fast, I had a few reservations and was a little bit worried about rapid mineral loss.Personal Story - 40-Day Fast
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!59I wasn’t sure what to do, but I felt very strongly that the coffee enema was a good idea.  So, as a precautionary measure, I took one capful of raw apple cider vinegar (acv) in water and drank that before the enema, and I repeated the same again afterwards as well.  I felt totally ﬁne.  If I had to do it again, I would not have taken the acv. Later, when I re-read Dr. Richard Anderson’s book Cleanse & Purify Thyself, I saw that he recommends a coffee enema during water fasting when feeling unwell.  That made me feel more reassured that I did indeed do the right thing.  Of course, with coffee enemas, organic coffee is a must.  The liquid should be retained for at least 12 minutes before releasing.I followed-up the coffee enema with a pure water enema to fully rinse the colon.  After, I felt much better, and I even had more energy.  For sure the worm has inspired me to continue.Day 9I feel very energized, have clarity of mind, no liver pain and no headaches!  Amazing!!Another worm was released today during the enema - this one more than 15 inches!I realized today that the full moon was on Day 7, and on Day 8 I started releasing the worms.  I don’t know if it’s related or not, but it is certainly interesting to note.  Personal Story - 40-Day Fast
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!60We deﬁnitely know that worms are more active over the full moon and that their life cycle and egg laying also are governed by the moon.Day 10This morning at 8:30am, I had some pretty severe pain in the descending colon and I knew I had to do an enema right away.  The result - a big ‘ball’ of worm the size of a rubber ball was released!  When straightened, the length of the worm was over 3 feet long!!  Beyond words.  I am continuing longer on this fast for sure.Day 11Enema at 11:30am, and yep, more worms.  Just over 2 feet in total this time; almost uneventful compared to the 3-foot worm yesterday.This is really without a doubt the most powerful and rewarding cleanse I have ever done.  It is truly awe-inspiring to witness the body releasing these worms safely and at it’s own natural pace.  All I have to do is trust.I have not felt any hunger whatsoever and haven’t even thought about food once.  I am so focused now on ridding my body of this evil, vile ﬁlth that I can easily continue this water fast for as long as I need to.My energy levels are good overall.  Every day I go through bouts of weakness, feeling some heat in the body and a bit of liver pain.  If I lie down for 30 minutes, it passes.I am still able to work up to 8 hours a day on the computer, which of course I know I shouldn’t.  But honestly, I am enjoying the time to be able to Personal Story - 40-Day Fast
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!61focus my mind completely on the website and other projects that I cannot help but work.  I’ve made backups, cleaned out hard drives, organized email accounts and done so many little ‘odd jobs’ that I never seem to have time to do.I feel like I am achieving more than just a physical cleanse.  Usually I am so busy teaching classes and seeing clients that I never have this much time to focus on computer work.  This cleanse is a gift in more ways than one!  Eventually I know I will have to let go of the computer and focus more time on meditation and connecting with Source, something I always look forward to doing on a cleanse. Day 12During the morning enema surprise, surprise...yes, more worms.  This time 3, totally 12 inches in length all together.Things are starting to make sense to me in this fast.  I have a distinct feeling that the white worms are coming from the brain area.  It sounds crazy and of course it is just speculation, but certainly the blinding headaches during my ﬁrst week could have been from the die-off of the worms in the brain.I have also suffered from several ‘unexplained’ conditions in the last four years, namely a constant popping and clogging in my left ear, numbness in my left arm and random muscle twitching throughout my body.  Personal Story - 40-Day Fast
!www.healthybliss.net!!!!!!!!!62I had discussed these conditions with other healers and no one ever mentioned the idea  of worms.  Everyone suggested that I do heavy metal detoxing, which I have been doing for the last 1.5 years on-and-off.Now that I have ‘evidence,’ I did some research on the ascaris worm.  All of the conditions that I had can be caused by this worm, especially when it has moved to the brain.  This is much more common than you may think.Especially if you have been under anesthesia or have taken strong antibiotics, the ascaris worm can break out of the colon to protect itself.  It will often migrate to the lungs and brain.  It can also wrap itself around the liver.  This could explain why I was also having so much liver pain during this detox.  Four years ago, I had to take some heavy antibiotics and ever since then, I have suffered from these ‘unexplainable’ conditions.  I also have had a constant ‘gurgling’ in my abdomen on the left side.  It would drive me crazy!  None of the colon cleanses I did made this gurgling noise go away..Since I started the water fast, my left ear has been popping and burning off and on pretty much all the time.  Something is happening for sure, and whatever it is, my body seems to know how to handle it.If you are doubtful that worms can be in the brain, you must watch this video interview of a woman who was diagnosed with a brain tumor, only to ﬁnd out after the surgery that, in fact, the doctors discovered a worm in her brain! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0LsnoYF24XoWith every worm that passes, I am feeling better and better, knowing that my body is becoming stronger each day.  Last night I re-read The Personal Story - 40-Day Fast

 is very fine and ripe it may be
brought to the table whole. It is a pretty dish, and can be
served by digging out the eyes with a cheese scoop or pointed
spoon. The sections will be found to run clear to the center
and will split as easily as those of an orange. Pineapple thus
served should be eaten by holding it in the hand.

ORANGE BASKETS.
Cut as many oranges as will be required, leaving the peel
whole for the baskets, and a stri p half an inch wide for the
handles. Remove the pulp and juice and use the juice in
making orange jelly. When ready to serve put a spoonful of
whipped cream over the jelly in each basket. Serve in a box
lined with orange or laurel leaves.

GRAPE FRUIT.
This fruit possesses great medicinal property, and is
gaining in popularity every year.
To prepare for the table, th ey should be cut in half,
removing the hard pith and th e seeds in the center. Fill the
cavity and sprinkle the surface with powdered sugar, pouring
over each half a tablespoonful of grape juice. This should be
allowed to stand an hour before using. The abundant acid and slightly bitter flavor of this fruit
serves to quench thirst, and it is regarded by many as a
sovereign remedy for biliousness.  It is undoubtedly one of the
best liver tonics in the fruit kingdom; better results will be
obtained by not diluting it with sugar.

THE GUAVA.
This tropical or semi-tropical shrub yields an important
dessert fruit. It is, however, known to the inhabitants of the
cooler zones only through guava jelly—a rich, conserve
imported from the West Indies. The guava is cultivated in
Florida, but the manufacture of guava is chiefly confined to
the West Indies.

TO KEEP LEMONS.
Lemons may be kept for a time by running a string
through the nibs and hanging in a dry place.

MELONS.
Of all the fruits that grow in the balmy clime of the South
there is none so much appreciated as the watermelon. While
the watermelon contains over 90 per cent. water, it also
contains 10 per cent of carbohydrates, and other valuable
food properties.
We have given no recipes for the preparation of this, for
the very obvious reason that it needs none.
Those who have consumed the watermelon only in
diningrooms and fashionable cafes know but little about the
enjoyment there is in disposing of this article in the good old
Southern way. They should see two Southern cornfield
"niggers" on a hot summer's day, making for the shade of a
mulberry tree, laden with two large "millions" each, and
watch them go after the luscious contents of this fruit without
knife, fork, or spoon. This scene might whet up the
imagination of the aesthetic cityite until he perhaps could
gain some information as to how to eat and form some vague
estimate of the pleasure of consuming a melon as the Asiatics
did a thousand or two years ago.
The watermelon, cantaloupe and muskmelon compose a
triad of the best fruits known.
Their virtue consists largely in the fact that they contain
large quantities of pure non-acid distilled water and much
fruit sugar, which stimulates the activity of all the digestive
organs.
EVAPORATED FRUITS.

THE process of evaporation is merely the taking from fruits
enough water to keep them from decay. Therefore, in
preparing them for the table, all that is necessary is to restore
to them the water. This can be done by soaking them in pure,
spring water, preferably water that has been distilled. This
will give the nearest approach to ripe fresh fruit that can be
secured out of season. Cooking totally destroys and takes
from fruit its life and freshness.

PRUNES.
Take a quantity sufficient for two or three days, wash
thoroughly, put in a deep vessel or pitcher, adding just
enough lukewarm water to cover.  Let them stand over night.
They will be found thoroughly softened. The peeling can be
easily removed. Then serve with thick cream. This will be
found to be a delicious and healthful breakfast dish. The juice
or syrup should not be poured off; the unused portion can be
left in the vessel from 48 to 60 hours without injuring, if kept
in a cool place. The large fancy variety, running from twenty
to thirty per pound, are much better for preparing in this
manner.

PEACHES AND APRICOTS.
Take quantity desired. Place in deep vessel. Lay upon
them a light weight, and add a small quantity of water, not
quite enough to cover. Let stand six or eight hours. Then
remove fruit to another vessel. Take a few pieces of same,
remove the peeling and reduce to a pulp. Add this to water in
which fruit was soaked. Pour th is over the soaked fruit and
serve.
Recipe No. 2.—Prepare same as recipe No. I, only mix a
few seeded raisins with the fruit.  This will furnish a delicious
sweetening without the use of cane sugar, which is not
recommended to use with acid fruits.
The method employed in the foregoing recipes can be
applied to all evaporated fruits.

EVAPORATED APPLES WITH RAISINS.
Take the quantity of dried or evaporated apples desired,
and about half as many seeded raisins as apples. Wash apples
thoroughly, mix raisins with apples in a deep vessel, and
hardly cover with warm wate r. Let stand over night, when
they will be ready to serve.

NUT-FIG MARMALADE.
Cover a small platter with ground figs, one-quarter inch
thick. Cover this with a layer of blanched, sliced Brazil nuts,
about one-eighth inch thick, then a layer of seeded dates.
Over this place a layer of pecan meats, then another layer of ground figs, and cover this with sliced Brazil nuts. Press
firmly together and slice with  sharp knife. This is very
delicious served plain with whipped cream.

STUFFED PRUNES.
Soak prunes until soft. Remove pits and stuff with nut-
meats.

STUFFED DATES.
Select whole, firm dates, wash and remove stone and fill
cavities with any kind of nuts desired or with cream cheese.
Pack firmly and allow to dry before using.

PRUNE DESSERT.
Soak the prunes seven to eight hours, remove pits and
chop fine; cover bottom of pudding dish with prunes, over
this a layer of ground nuts, alternate layers until dish is nearly
filled. -Cover with the beaten whites of the eggs, a little
lemon juice and powdered sugar beaten very stiff; dot with
pecan nuts and serve.
CHEESE AND JUNKET.

JUNKET.
Into a quart of milk stir two tablespoonfuls of powdered
sugar, a teasponful of liquid rennet. In a warm room the milk
will soon become "set" like a custard, when it must be put on
the ice until needed. Serve with sugar and cream from the
same bowl in which it was formed. Any kind of fresh fruit
may be added to the junket before it has entirely congealed
and a portion of fruit given with each service.

CLABBER
Is nothing more than milk which has soured and turned
or thickened until it is of the c onsistency of baked custard. It
should then be set on ice, or in a cool place and not sent to the
table until ready to use. Some individuals prefer this as a
relish just as it is, but most people use sugar, cream and
grated nutmeg. The milk may be put in a glass bowl before it
turns. As a diet, however, better results will be obtained by
using it without sweetening or flavoring.

CREAM CHEESE.
Take thick cream and tie it in a wet cloth. Stir a
teaspoonful of salt into every pint of cream. Hang it in a cool
airy place for three or four days to drain. Then turn it into a
clean cloth, which must be put into a mold and under a
weight for about twenty-four hours longer, when it will be fit
for use.

CREAM CHEESE AND NUTS.
Cover a layer of cream cheese with dates sliced thin, and
on that, a layer of pecan nuts or sliced Brazil nuts, taking care
that the nuts form the top layer. Serve very cold.
CAKE, PUDDINGS AND PIES.

FIG AND NUT CAKE.
 Figs,  Nuts,
 Dates,  Cocoanut.
Make a layer each of ground figs, grated protoid nuts,
dates cut in halves with stones removed, and grated cocoa-
nut. Continue building these layers until the cake is of the
thickness desired, finishing with  the cocoanut; decorate with
crystallized cherries and nut meats.

SWEET POTATO PUDDING.
 Sweet Potatoes,   Eggs,
 Cream,   Nutmeg,
 Sugar,   Gelatine,
Milk.
Grate potatoes on a large grater and then drain


 intimate living arrangements. This can be either “bad” or
“good”... or neither, but just wha t’s so.
All of this stuff is rolling around in your mind all of the time. It resides there, and it
cannot be deleted. There is no delete button on this computer. Your mind will “bring to
front” this Past Data the moment any Present Data looks even a little like it. You will then
make an assessment of the Present Data based on prior data that you, and only you,
possess. Nobody else is walking around with your past. Nobody else has your history.
This means that no one else in the universe can encounter, understand, or experience
anything at all in precisely the way you do. Not so long as you stay in your mind. In strictly
literal terms, it is impossible to have a “meeting of minds.” You can, howev er, have a
blending of souls. This is the blessed relationship for which every human yearns. This is
where the truth is known. Humans yearn for this blessed relationship because they have a
cellular awareness that not only is it possible, not only has it h appened, but it is happening
right now. The only thing standing in the way of our experiencing  this relationship is the
Emotion that is based on the Thought that is based on the Truth that is based on Judged
Past Data.
How is it possible for the soul to si destep this Line of Causality when the mind
apparently cannot? Simple. In Ultimate Reality (where the soul resides) there is no such
thing as Past Data. It is always Right Here, Right Now.
Ah, but that is a whole different discussion, saved for part 2.
Returning to the human experience of what is happening in most people’s lives, we see
that our minds are constantly rolling around in Judged Past Data or Factual Past Data,
producing, at the end of the Line of Causality, what psyc hiatrists and psychologists label
Objective Reality and Subjective Reality.
Subjective Reality emerges from Judged  Past Data. (Not all of this is negative, by the way,
and that should not be inferred. Often we judge prior events as having been quite
wonder ful.) Objective Reality emerges from Factual  Past Data. (What you might call “raw
data” as opposed to “analyzed data.”)  In my own model I call Objective Reality “Observed Reality,” and I label Subjective
Reality “Distorted Reality.” Why don’t I use the sam e terms that the therapeutic community
uses? Why have I created my own model?
Because my terminology is more descriptive and, more important, because the
traditional therapeutic model does not recognize the existence of a third reality.
Everything came tog ether for me when I started looking at life using a model that
showed something above  Distorted Reality and Observed Reality —something that I labeled
Ultimate Reality.
The existence of this third reality is what makes it possible for all people to dramatic ally
change their lives. Not merely alter their lives, but transform  them.
Paying attention to the second reality —what you objectively observe, as opposed to
what you subjectively experience —can certainly alter one’s experience for the better, and
good psy chologists have helped people do that. But paying attention to the third reality —
what is ultimately  happening as opposed to what we observe  to be happening —can so
affect your life that you may never have to endure emotional turmoil again. Ever.
This is whe re Buddha lived. This is where Christ resided. This is where all true Masters
live. It was the home of Paramahansa Yogananda. It is the home of the Dalai Lama. It is
where you will find Thich Nhat Hanh. And Western masters too, such as Stephen Levine,
Eckh art Tolle, Byron Katie, and Mary O’Malley. These are people who understand, and who
some say have mastered life.
I have put this understanding in my own words. To me it seems clear that to really
utilize the mind at optimal levels (and, hence, experience life itself  at those levels) we must
move beyond the standard therapeutic model.
Modern psychological constructs hold very little space (if any) for spirituality. That is to
say, for God and for the soul. This is a supreme irony  since the original idea was exactly the
opposite!
The very word “psychology” gives us our clue. “Psyche” comes from the Greek word
meaning “soul.” “Logy” is also Greek, and means “knowledge.” We see that “psycho+logy”=
“soul knowledge” —which is what the ancient Greeks knew that all h ealthy behavior was
anchored in!
The constructs that I employ (including those in this book) know the same thing. The
model I use to study and affect behaviors is based  in spirituality; it has its foundation  in
theo+logy —that is, knowledge of God. Does thi s make it therapeutically more effective?
What do you think?
In my observation the third reality, Ultimate Reality, emerging as it does from Actual
Truth, finally offers an explanation (that neither of the first two realities does) for not only
what  is goi ng on, but why. And once we know why  something is happening (sudden change,
for instance), we can employ the immense power of the mind, combined with the eternal
clarity of the soul, to not only alter our experience of what has happened, but to create our
experience of what will happen.
This is the next evolutionary step for humankind. And humans do not have to wait years
to take it. You, yourself, can take this step in minutes. Indeed, in the time required to finish
this book.  And here’s the best thing. Yo u don’t have to share my point of view about God in order to
do it. You don’t have to believe in God at all. You’re free. This book does not seek your
religious conversion. I’m not going to try to convince you of anything here. I’ve simply been
sharing som e tools with you. You’ll see if they work for you or not, but you don’t have to
believe in anything in order to use them.
But know that what will change here, should you use these tools, is not just your
experience of the life change that you are moving th rough right now. These tools will also
impact all the changes that you will experience from now until the day you die —when you
will undergo the Biggest Change of All.
When you die, what will happen to you, what you will become aware of, will change
everyth ing about the way you view the life you have lived. Every event will be viewed from
a larger perspective, every moment will be viewed with love and acceptance, every misstep
will be viewed with understanding and compassion, every achievement will be viewed  with
sweet pride and soft joy and a willingness, at last, to accept and embrace one’s own
magnificence.
The conversation we are now having is about bringing that same view forward. It is
about moving it from Then to Now.
I can remember my father saying, “If I knew then  what I know now.... ” This is about
knowing “now” what you will know “then.” Exciting, yes?
All of This:
it is preparation for walking in the world
as Light.
You have been found now,
and the running of man y lifetimes
is over.
So as each layer of dust
is wiped clean
from the surface,
the You
you have known
must  disperse.
Let this Light become
Your speech & Your silence.
Let the grief
that has lived you,
pass away.  Let the people
who love You,
love Themselves.
Let the earth shake,
the stars burn
the skies break
when You do.
As painful as this part is,
You were meant to know your Light.

OF SNAKES AND LIONS AND HUMANS, TOO
WE ARE VERY NEAR  the end of part 1  of this book. This first half of this wonderful
conversation brought us into deep focus on the Mechanics of the Mind in order that you
might change the way you experience change. In the second half of our time together we
will look at changing the way you create  change, by exploring the System of the Soul.
It would have been impossible to explain how the second —and more exciting —tool
works without us deeply understanding the mechanics of the first. And it will be impossible
to fully utilize the first, no matter how thoroughly we explain it, without the fuel (that is to
say, the power ) that the second gives  to the first.
All of which is to notice that life in both  its parts has a purpose and a function just the
way it is. We are truly served by using life in all the ways that it presents itself, physical and
spiritual, as a means and a pathway to the Ultimate Reality.
So now we shall go just one more, final, layer deep in exploring life in the physical —for
this final exploration will lead to a life -altering question  that will make everything you have
read in the past several chapters usable and workable in a way


 years.Because it takes so long for certain cycles to complete themselves
does not mean that a cycle is not occurring. The life cycle of a planet
or a solar system may be billions or even trillions of years. The life
cycle of a mayfly ranges from a half hour to... for a really elderly
mayfly... one day.
We see, then, that to everything there is a season, and a time
for every purpose under Heaven. A time to live and a time to die. A
time to sow and a time to reap that which has been sown.
Everything in existence has a life cycle. And this cycle has
been misunderstood. Notice that I have called it a life cycle, not a
life-and- death cycle. And notice that I have referred to it as a life
cycle, not a life span. A span is generally understood to have a
beginning and an end. A cycle does not. It is not a straight line, but
rather, a circle.
My metaphysical understanding is that there are no straight
lines in the Universe. What may appear to be a straight line is simply
an enormous circle, a portion or section of which is so long, it seems
to not be curving at all. Its curvature is too gradual to be seen. Yet
ultimately, every “straight” line has a horizon, and so its straightness
appears to “end.” But no “straight” line ever ends, but is finally seen
for what it is: that which has no end, but merely continues in a circle.
Human life likewise appears to “end,” and likewise does not,
but merely continues its cycle. “Death” is simply a process of re-
identification, through which the mind and the body unde rstand and
experience themselves to be parts of a Three-Part Being that
includes and arises from the soul, which lives forever.Question #7:

SPIRITUAL HEALI NG

You speak in this book about triggering the patient’s “spiritual
response mechanism” for healing. What is spiritual healing and does
it really exist? When western medicine “fails me,” are there spiritual
things I can do to increase my chance of a cure?

DR. COOPER: To answer your question of how can one know
whether the possibility of spiritual healing exists, I would like to divert
for a moment and talk about the feeling of falling in love. Most of us
have experienced it at least once in our lives—that feeling of being
with someone  and sharing such a powerful bond, such a deep-
seated soul-based connection, that it defies all logical thought.
How do you know  that you are “in love”? How do you know  that
someone is “the one”? Ask people these questions, and 99 times out
of 100 they will tell you, “I don’t know how I knew, I just knew.” Love
is one of the strongest energies we feel in our lives, and all of us
know that this is something that can be felt but not measured.
Similarly, it seems to me, are the various types of spiritual or
energetic healings.We can leave a Reiki energy healing, or a “de-cording” session,
or receive an “energetic surgery” from John of God, and we can feel
a difference in ourselves—in our health and wellbeing—even though
this difference has not yet been measured or proven, or for that
matter ever validated, in any scientific or conventional medical trials.
While I, as a medical doctor, do not endorse “spiritual healing”
as something that can be guaranteed, counted on, or trusted to
“work without fail,” at the same time I do not dismiss it.  That is, even
though there is no evidence that it works in any conventional medical
trials, I keep my mind open to the possibility. (With the caveat, of
course, that a “cure” must be in the best interest of a perso n’s overall
Spiritual Journey, as was discussed earlier in the book... and note
that this is not always the case.)
Having been trained as a western medical doctor, I will say
upfront that I do not know what specific strategies alternative or
spiritual healer s use. So to answer the second part of your question,
What can I do to increase my chance of cure? (assuming western
medicine has done all it can and is still unable to help you), let me
double back for a moment to the chapter on medical miracles in Part
1.
Here we note that acceptance, gratitude, and even celebration
for the challen ges (health-re lated or otherwise) that we face in our
lives form the “energetic framework” from which any medi cal miracle
could and possibly would come to pass. In other words, these are
the basic states of being that facilitate such physical changes
occurring... if they are going to occur at all.
We go on to note that one is well-advised not to count on, or
expect, a miracle, however, as we do not want people to feelsomehow metaphysically “wrong” for either: (a) having “attracted” the
disease to themselves in the first place, or (b) being unable to “cure”
it.
We also explain that, in our view, “healing” does not always
equate to “curing the physical ailment.” It could very well mean
something else, such as easing the transition to death when a soul is
ready to move on, or choosing to live with a certain physical condition
or challenge in order to, at a spiritual level, most fully facilitate the
gifts one has chosen to bring forth in this lifetime. And it is important
to understand this distinction, because western medicine will promote
the idea that “healing” and “cure” are synonymous, when
metaphysically speaking they are not.
From a spiritual perspective, then, we invite people to see the
perfection of whatever is occurring, knowing that, although their
health conditio n may appear to be challenging or adversarial or
“unwanted” at the surface level, when we look beyond the body and
the mind and begin to see into the perspective of the soul,  we come
to see that no “healing” what soever needs  to take place in order for
every golden moment of Now to be absolutely perfect as it is.
If there were  “healin g” to be done, I would suggest the first and
foremost thing to do would be to heal any small  or false thoug ht ever
we held about Who W e Are.
In the words of Paramahansa Yogananda, “To know God is the
most important way to heal all disease—physical, mental, and
spiritual”18—and I believe that “knowing God” is remembering that
we are each Divine and that, given Who We Are, nothing can occur
in our lives that does not serve us in some way. This does notpreclude  the possibility of physical healing or of a physical cure, but
it does bring us to the place where we no longer require  it.
So getting to the last part of your question: what can you, as an
individual, do from a spiritua l or alternative medicine perspective to
increase your chance of cure?
First of all, I would be attentive to your physical health as best
as you can. Make an effort to follow the prescription of Paramahansa
Yogananda: “proper eating, exercise, fresh air and sunshine,
hygiene, physical and mental relaxation, and conscious recharging
of the Life Force.”18
Second, make use of any other “healing resources” as it
pleases you to do so, be it acupuncture, bio-energy healing, positive
thinking and visualization, or whatever else you find compelling.
There are countless real-life anecdotes and stories showing that
these methods work and can be of great assistance to people.
Third—and perhaps most importantly of all—do not be afraid to
look within yourself. When  adversity strikes (health-related or
otherwise), I invite you to get quiet inside and to tap into the
resources you always have at your disposal. Listen to your own inner
wisdom to the point where you once again allow yourself, as we said
just a moment ago, to heal any small or false thought you ever held
about Who Y ou Are.
When you remember  Who You Really Are (an aspect of Divinity
who cannot be hurt or harmed in any way)—and move into
acceptance, gratitude, and celebration  for whatever is occurring—at
this point you become metaphysically “immune” to the negative
emotional effects of any so-called illness, even if the illness itself
does not disappear.So cure or no cure, living another ten years or living only one
more day, always know that nothing— so-called negative health
outcome or otherwise —can deny you the opportunity to express and
to experience, right here and right now, the very highest version of
Who Y ou Are.

NEALE: “Healing” is best defined as the end of suffering. It is not
necessarily the end of pain,  or of a condition that causes it. The
essence of healing is seeing. It is seeing another person or the Self
in True Identity. When we see another, or ourselves, as Who We
Really Are, we end all thought that something is occurring which
should not be occurring. In doing so, we end all resistanc e to it. The
ending of resistance is the beginning of healing.
Healing is not about changing any condition or circumstance,


 otherwise. Change is tough. If you’re
like most people, every
1fiber of your being will resist having to take on the hard work of
eliminating the thoughts that support your self-forfeiting feelings
and behavior. But despite the “worms” I think you are going to like
this book. I love it! And I loved writing it.
While I do not believe that mental health should be treated in a
flip manner, neither do I support the notion that it must be a humor-
less enterprise, filled with arcane jargon. I have tried to avoid intric-
ate explanations, largely because I do not believe that “being happy”
is a complex affair.
Being healthy is a natural state, and the means for achieving it are
within the grasp of each one of us. I believe that a judicious mixture
of hard work, clear thinking, humor and self-confidence are the in-
gredients of effective living. I do not believe in fancy formulas, or
historical excursions into your past to discover that you were
“harshly toilet trained” and that someone else is responsible for your
unhappiness.
This book outlines a pleasant approach to achieving happiness—an
approach that relies on responsibility for and commitment to your-
self, plus an appetite for living and a desire to be all that you choose
to at this moment. It’s an uncomplicated approach, a common sense
approach. If you are a healthy, happy human being, you may find
yourself thinking, “I could have written this book.” You are right.
You don’t need a professional background in counseling and a
doctorate in the helping professions to understand the principles of
effective living. You don’t learn them in a classroom or in a book.
You learn them by being committed to your own happiness and by
doing something about it. This is something I work on every day,
while simultaneously helping others to make similar choices.
Each chapter of this book is written like a counseling session. This
approach is aimed at providing as much opportunity for self-help
as possible. A particular erroneous zone, or kind of self-destructive
behavior, is explored, and the historical antecedents for the behavior
in our culture (and therefore in you) are examined. The emphasis is
on helping you understand why you2 / Your Erroneous Zonesare trapped in this self-defeating zone. Then specific behaviors that
fall into this erroneous zone are detailed. The types of behavior we’re
talking about are everyday acts that may seem perfectly acceptable,
but are, in reality, harmful to your own happiness. There are no ex-
amples from severe emotionally disturbed clinical cases, but rather
the daily neurotic messages that we all send out. After a look at the
behaviors in the erroneous zone we go on to an examination of the
reasons  for hanging onto behavior which does not make you happy.
This entails a hard look at the psychological support system that
you have erected to maintain self-defeating behavior, rather than
giving it up. This section is an attempt to answer the questions,
“What do I get out of my behavior?” and “Why does it persist if it
is injurious to me?” As you examine each erroneous zone, you’ll
undoubtedly note that each of the “payoff” sections has similar
messages. You’ll discover that the reasons for keeping neurotic be-
havior are fairly consistent across all of the erroneous zones. Essen-
tially it is safer to hang onto a learned response, even if it is self-de-
structive. Moreover, you can eliminate having to change and take
responsibility if you keep the erroneous zones intact. These payoffs
of safety and security will be evident throughout the book. You’ll
begin to see that your psychological maintenance system functions
to keep blame off you and the opportunity for change at bay. The
fact that you maintain many self-defeating behaviors for the same
reason only makes total growth more approachable. Eliminate these
reasons and you’ll eradicate your erroneous zones.
Each chapter concludes with some straightforward strategies for
eliminating self-nullifying behavior. This format is exactly what a
counseling session is all about; that is, exploration of the difficulty
and where it surfaces, a look at the self-defeating behavior, insight
into the “Why” of the behavior and concrete strategies for eliminating
the troublesome area.
Occasionally this approach may strike you as repetitious. That’s
a good sign—a sign of effective thinking. I have been aINTRODUCTION—A PERSONAL STATEMENT  / 3therapist for many years. I know that effective thinking—thinking
which can alter self-destructive behavior—does not occur just be-
cause something is said. An insight must be repeated, and repeated,
and repeated again. Only then, when it is fully accepted and under-
stood, do you begin to alter behavior. It is for this reason that certain
themes must be hammered at again and again in the pages of this
book, just as they must be brought up again and again in successive
counseling sessions.
There are two central themes that wind throughout the pages of
this book. The first involves your ability to make choices about your
own emotions. Begin to examine your life in the light of choices you
have made or failed to make. This puts all responsibility for what
you are and how you feel on you. Becoming happier and more ef-
fective will mean becoming more aware of the choices that are
available to you. YOU ARE THE SUM TOTAL OF YOUR CHOICES,
and I am just “far out” enough to believe that with an appropriate
amount of motivation and effort you can be anything you choose.
The second theme that will be emphasized within these pages is
that of taking charge of your present moments. This is a phrase that
will reappear many times. It is an essential part of eliminating your
erroneous zones and creating your happiness. There is only one
moment in which you can experience anything, and that is now, yet
a great deal of time is thrown away by dwelling on past or future
experiences. Turning your now into total fulfillment is the touchstone
of effective living, and virtually all self-defeating behaviors (erro-
neous zones) are efforts at living in a moment other than the current
one.
Choice and present-moment living will be stressed on almost
every page of this book. With a careful reading, you’ll soon begin
to ask yourself questions. that have never occurred to you before.
“Why am I choosing to feel upset right now?” and “How can I make
more effective use of my present moments?” are the internal queries
of a person moving away from erroneous zones toward self-reliance
and happiness.4 / Your Erroneous ZonesThis book concludes with a brief portrait of a person who has
eliminated all erroneous zones and is living in an internally rather
than externally controlled emotional world. The following twenty-
five questions are designed to measure your capacity to choose
happiness and fulfillment. Go through the questions as objectively
as possible and assess yourself and how you live your present mo-
ments. “Yes” responses indicate personal mastery and effective
choice-making.
1. Do you believe that your mind is your own? (Chapter I)
2. Are you capable of controlling your own feelings? (Chapter
I)
3. Are you motivated from within rather than from without?
(Chapter VII)
4. Are you free from the need for approval? (Chapter III)
5. Do you set up your own rules of conduct for yourself?
(Chapter VII)
6. Are you free from the desire for justice and fairness? (Chapter
VIII)
7. Can you accept yourself and avoid complaining? (Chapter
II)
8. Are you free from hero worship? (Chapter VIII)
9. Are you a doer rather than a critic? (Chapter IX)
10. Do you welcome the mysterious and the unknown? (Chapter
VI)

(Chapter IV)
12. Can you love yourself at all times? (Chapter II)
13. Can you grow your own roots? (Chapter X)
14. Have you eliminated all dependency relationships? (Chapter
X)
15. Have you eliminated all blame and fault-finding in your life?
(Chapter VII)
16. Are you free from ever feeling guilty? (Chapter V)INTRODUCTION—A PERSONAL STATEMENT  / 517. Are you able to avoid worrying about the future? (Chapter
V)
18. Can you give and receive love? (Chapter II)
19. Can you avoid immobilizing anger in your life? (Chapter XI)
20. Have you eliminated procrastination as a life-style? (Chapter
IX)
21. Have you learned to fail effectively? (Chapter VI)
22. Can you enjoy spontaneously without having a plan?
(Chapter VI)
23. Can you appreciate and create humor? (Chapter XI)
24. Are you treated by others the way you want to be? (Chapter
X)
25. Are you motivated by your potential for growth, rather than
a need to repair your deficiencies? (Chapter I)
At any given moment of your life, you can choose to say yes to
all of the questions above if you are willing to repeal many “shoulds”
and “oughts” that you have learned throughout your life. The real
choice is whether you decide to be personally free or remain chained
to the expectations that others have of you.
A friend of mine, Doris Warshay, after hearing one of my lectures,
wrote a poem to me which she titled New Directions.
I want to travel as far as I can go,
I want to reach the joy that’s in my soul,
And change the limitations that I know,
And feel my mind and spirit grow


 unnecessarily for his own failure!
It is necessary to point out that a patinet should gradually
increase his food before resuming usual diet. On breaking the fast on
the first day,. the patient should take a mixture prepared from one
spoonful of lemon juice, two spoonfuls of honey and three ounces of
lukewarm water. After four hours he should take 2 oz. of lentil soup
mixed with 2 spoonful of ginger juice and a little salt. After four
hours, 2 oz. of sweet orange juice should be taken. In this way, the
diet should be increased gradually and should be taken only when
the patient develops good hunger. In additon, he should continue
to drink 2 oz. of auto-urine early in the morning. By doing this the
appetite would be increased and there would be no irritation at all. ASTHMA: 103
5. The Cure of 15 Years Old Asthma.: Dr. Natvarlal B. Shah,
M.B.B.s., of Thasara, Kaira District, had been suffering from asthma
for the last 15 years. He tried urine treatment and was cured. Here is
his report:
"At prestent 1 am 47. for the last 15 years, I had been suffering
from asthma which normally attacked me in monsoon. It began
when there was humidity in the air and continued for a period of
four months in simple or acute form. Sometimes I had to confine
myself to bed for a number of days and it had become impossible to
go out in rains, 1 took Ayurvedic as well as allopathic treatment
with may medicines and injections without any permanent result.
During last November, though monsoon was over, the effect of
asthma did not abate and mild attacks were felt during nights.
"In December 1960, 1 studied your book carefully and discussed
it with some friends and with their encouragement, I began urine
tratment on 31-12-60 :
"1. For the first 10 days 1 drank 4 oz. of my own fresh urine
every morning, noon and evening. Thereafter, for a month, I
continued to take it twice.
"2. Massage: 1 had massage of old urine on the whole body for 2
hours and this continued for one month.
"3. Diet : For the first 9 days, I lived exclusively on water and
urine. After that for two days, I took juice of dates and raisins in
the morning; cow's milk and papaw at noon and the same in the
evening. Therefter 1 resorted to light food. In the beginning I took
lentil soup and gradually I resumed usual diet. I take now
hand-pounded rice and milk of cow only. Chillies and other
condiments are absolutely avoided.
"4. The treatment restored me to perfect health within a month
and 1 am without any trouble till now. The effect of asthma is totally
gone. 1 do not take any medicine or tablets now, nor do I feel its
necessity. Previously I felt attackes in monsoon and had to take
tablets as a percaution. 104 : AUTO-URINE THERAPY
115. The physical troubles experienced during the treatment:
11A. On the third day of the experiment, boils were seen on the
whole body, specially below the waist and they continued for about
1 month. I used to compress the boild with cotton soaked in my own
urine which gave me some relief.
11B. During the fast slight discomfort was felt for a day, otherwise
there was nothing unusual.
11C. After the fast papaw was taken for two days. The second
evening some irritation in the throat was felt which resulted in my
cough during the night. I thought over the probable cause and
stopped papaw. The cough and asthma did not recur. After that I
began solid food. For the first two days only a soup-like khichadi
was taken.
11The third day, a piece of bread of millet was taken along with
milk. A mild attack of cough was felt the same night and effect of
asthma was also felt at above 3 a.m. With a change of diet, caught
was controlled the same night and attack of asthma did not recur in
the morning.
11Now I take everything without any restriction excluding chillies
and fried stuff.
11This is my experience and I hold that the above treatment is
extremely useful in asthma.11
