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 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.

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.
