You have now learned that total abstinence from food
-- FASTING -- is the best and most effective method of healing. . .
.
Paradoxically but true, civilized men starve to
death thru ten times too much overeating of wrong, destructive foods;
the "sack" (stomach) of digestion is enlarged and sunken, prolapsed,
which condition dislocates and interferes with the proper functioning
of the other organs. Its glands and pores of the walls are totally constipated
and its elasticity as well as that of the intestines, with its vital
function is almost paralyzed. The abdomen is an abnormally enlarged
sack of fatty, watery, dislocated organs thru which half or even more
of the decayed foods of civilization slide, fermenting more and more
into feces such as no animal has, and this is called digestion!
Sex
Sex Diseases
Thru the knowledge received in past lessons, you now
know and can realize more than any Naturopath that there is no principal
difference between any one kind of disease or another.
In this particular case, however, we find an exception,
but only in so far as the symptoms of syphilis are concerned. Venereal
diseases can be healed by diet and fasting easily for the simple reason
that the patient is generally young in years. The cure becomes more
aggravated, made more difficult, if drugs have been used. This, of course,
has unfortunately happened in almost every case.
The so-called characteristic symptoms of any kind of
syphilitic disease are due to drugs of one or several kinds.
Nothing is easier to heal than this "cold" or "catarrh"
at the sex organ, if untouched by drugs or injections.
I healed hundreds of such cases where Naturopathy failed
to heal. Only fasting and mucusless diet can help.
This condition requires so careful a control of the elimination
that under all circumstances an expert with previous experience is required.
Natural Control of Sex
[avaliable in book]
Motherhood and Eugenics
Motherhood with mucusless diet, before, during and after
pregnancy is the development towards the Madonna-like, holy purity principally
different from the dangerous so-called "ordinary" childbirth, with its
ever-present risk of life, known in our present civilization.
If the female body is perfectly clean thru this diet,
the menstruation disappears.
Headaches, toothache, vomiting, and all other so-called
"diseases of pregnancy" disappear, and painless childbirth, an ample
sufficiency of very sweet milk, babies that never cry, babies who are
very differently "clean," as compared with others, are the wonderful
facts I have learned from every woman becoming a mother after having
lived on this diet.
It is not advisable to start a radical change in diet
during pregnancy, or while nursing; this should be done at least two
or three months before conception.
Feeding the Baby
What is considered a well-fed and healthy looking baby,
of average normal weight, is in reality pounds of waste of decayed milk.
As stated before, if a change of this kind in the baby's
diet is made, they must be healed first -- whether sick or not -- cleansed
from the waste of their "latent disease."
Natural sweets are necessary for the growing child for
building a strong skeleton. Lime is also important. (See Berg's Tables.)
Thousands of pregnant mothers, innocently thru overeating,
half kill their children before they are born.
Eugenics of a Diseaseless, Superior Race
Using a plant as a comparison, "motherhood" can be said
to represent the QUALITY of the soil; "fatherhood" represents the quality
of the seed-of the germ.
A relatively poor, almost barren soil but a good quality
of seed produces a fairly good plant, but a defective seed, even though
planted in the best of soil, NOTHING.
As in every respect of life this problem is different
also, and, of course, is different in the case of a clean body on natural
diet. Medical doctors and Naturopaths alike will hardly believe at all
in the new principles and arguments which I have brought out, and postulated
in this work. They reason and figure with the facts and experiences
of the filthy body living on the unnatural diet of civilization.
One cannot reason about colors with a man born blind.
One cannot use the old arguments and the old physiology to gainsay my
statements. Until you have personally experienced on your own body the
truth of my teachings, you will have to accept and believe the new ones.
Realize, please, what this means -- SUPERIOR FASTINGS
-- as they were taken by the prophets of old.
It is nothing less than the problem of the future of
the American Nation -- mixing races or inbreeding. The Jewish race is
the answer, the only example in existence that inbreeding is natural
and perfect. Marriage of close relationship fails simply because we
have degenerated too far, in comparison with the people of their ancestor
Abraham. Outside breeding is a "stimulation" with an apparently good
result, lasting only for one or two generations and then, in general,
the family dies out.
The
Enforcement of Elimination by Physical Adjustments
As shown in previous lessons all physical treatments
vibrate -- shake -- the tissues and thereby stimulate the circulation
in one way or another for the purpose and with the result of loosening
and eliminating "foreign matters," the cause of all diseases.
The most natural exercises and by far the best, are walking,
dancing and singing;
By taking the proper care of your body you will generate
health. The following exercises are suggested for those who desire to
keep physically fit: [available in book]. I must again remind you that
air is more necessary to life than food. Proper breathing is therefore
essential. Do not exercise in a close, stuffy room.
Always bear in mind that extremes of any kind are harmful.
This applies to exercise, bathing and sleeping, as well as extremes
in eating. Even extreme joy and happiness has been known to kill just
as readily as extreme anger, hate and worry. Therefore, AVOID EXTREMES
OF ALL KINDS.
"Man is what he eats" is a philosopher's greatest and
truest statement.
You must now see why civilization, all religion, all
philosophy, with their tremendous sacrifice of work, time, money, energy,
is and has been part guesswork. The magic formula for "Heaven on Earth"
-- of the Paradise -- must read like this:
"Eat your way into Paradise physically." But you cannot
pass the gate, watched over by the angel with the flaming sword, until
you have gone through the purgatory (cleansing fire) of fasting and
diet of healing -- a cleansing, a physiological purifying, by the "Flame
of Life" in your own body! During thousands of years no one has escaped
the struggle of death caused by an unnatural life, and you will have
to face it some day.
This will give an outline of the serious nature of my
work -- and the necessity for your help in carrying it through as the
greatest deed you can perform -- upon which depends not only your future
destiny, but that of a suffering, unhappy mankind -- on the verge of
a physical and mental collapse.
