Thank you for taking time to explore this website.

When something happens all the time, you have a lot of faith that it will happen again. You have faith that the sun will rise tomorrow morning, and you have faith that when you step on the scale, the pointer will register your body weight. You don’t consult the scale to know what time it is.

When something never happens, your faith that it will happen is nil. You don’t walk off a cliff expecting to fly. But you might go insane, and believe that you can fly if you have enough faith. In such a case, the faith is “unfounded”, and no amount of faith will enable you to step off a cliff and avoid falling. If you want to try to prove me wrong, then try the experiment using a very small cliff, such as the edge of a two-by-four. If you can suspend your body after stepping off the board, and remain floating in thin air for five minutes, well, then, you’ve proved me wrong.

When you see someone doing something you think is impossible, then your belief system is shaken. If you saw a man step from a high building and move across to another building, without using wings, you expect that he is walking on a wire or some other object hard to see. In any case, you will want to know the explanation for this surprising phenomenon. And after the miracle worker has explained how he worked his miracle, then lots of other men can learn to do the same thing. But what’s the value of being able to walk on thin air? It would be more valuable if you could turn water into pure gold, or if you could feed a million starving people with a basket of loaves and fishes.

Modern doctors are finding that some surgical treatments cure by faith alone. Some people think that if a treatment cures by faith alone, then it is a bogus treatment. But to the person who is cured, there was no other treatment in which he had such faith, and it was his faith in the treatment which worked the cure.

The question is what mechanism works the faith cure? If this process could be fully understood, and made stronger or more effective, then faith alone would cure more people. But there is the problem of what you need to have faith?

People trust in their doctor. So they have great faith in what their doctor says and does. It is this faith in a High Authority, which in this case is their doctor, which works the cure.

In other words, to many person their doctor is God.

And you have to work hard to be able to afford an operation. Operations cost a lot of money. So if you perceive there is no solution to your problem but an expensive operation, you are investing a lot of physical work (to make a lot of money) so you can pay your doctor. You have a lot invested in your faith! What you believe in you have worked hard to afford. So when you trust in your doctor, and are cured by faith, it is because you’ve invested so much of yourself in your faith.

In other words, the basis of your faith, and your faith cure is the connection which exists between your mind and your physical body.

If this is true, then strengthening the integration of your mind and body will enable your faith to become stronger. And the doctor doesn’t know how to do this kind of medicine.

This poses the problem, then, of in which teacher or master are you going to trust?

And there is another problem, besides the problem of finding a teacher who will help you strengthen the mind-body link in your body-brain-mind-personality.

There’s the question of cause and effect. If you have an operation or if you take a pill or if you do some exercise, and you recover from some illness, the scientists will say that your illness was transitory, and you would have gotten better, anyway. When doctors treat someone without giving them the whole treatment which has proved to be effective, and they call the cure a placebo effect, they also say that in some cases a sick person gets well anyway, even if no one treats the disease. But just going to the doctor, and trusting in his cure, helps a person if the person is anxious. Going to the doctor relieves the anxiety.

So we also can suggest that chronic anxiety can make a person more prone to diseases. And a way to treat chronic disease would be to help the person reduce his or her chronic anxieties.

On the other hand, being sick often, and being in pain most every day doesn’t make a person more confident. So which comes first, the fear or the physical disorder?

A lot of problems in life are like this. They are problems of cause and effect. Which is the cause and which is the effect? Many personal problems get worse and worse, when the fundamental problem isn’t solved. And anxiety is a serious problem for many persons.

In light of the above, if a person can lose anxiety and trust more in his own body to know what is right, without having to think of his mother or his father as The High Authority, or his doctor as The High Authority, or his Third Grade Teacher as The High Authority, then the person is His Own God. His faith in his doctor, and his need to spend thousands of dollars a year seeing doctors to treat his chronic illnesses, is gone! He senses God within Himself.

Now amplify this effect. Increase the sensation of body wisdom. Turn up the heat. Ones anxiety goes to zero. What has frightened him in past years he no longer is afraid of! Isn’t this the very heart of insanity and heroism?

The trick is to pull this off without going crazy. That is, in your brain there is social programming, that is information programmed into your brain as you were young and impressionable, and amenable to discipline. You trusted in your mother, and in your father and in your Third Grade Teacher to know what is best! And you learned to not trust your body. You learned to control your body using your conscious mind and your conscious will. You became the boss over your body. You determined what you were going to do to your body and with your body. And if your body objected, you used your will, and your behavior to recondition your body. So you learned to wear socks and shoes. You learned to wear tight fitting pants, and maybe ear-rings. And you learned to smoke cigarettes or a pipe. You learned to eat spicy foods and other foods a baby won’t eat. You trained your body in accord with the teachings of your culture.

And when you got sick you went to a healer.

Every human culture has abused human bodies. In some cultures the women learn to stretch their necks using tight fitting bands of silver.

In American culture, young women learn to walk on stilted shoes with high heels. In both cultures, bodies are sorely abused, and the bodies can’t fight back. The will of the cultured person is so strong!

And if a child has a weak will or no will, to follow the ways of his or her culture, then this person is a social outcast.

This is just the way human cultures have evolved. And some cultures produce a great deal of illness in bodies, because the ways of cultured people are so bad for the body.

And some persons are genetically sensitive, so that their bodies suffer a lot more than most other bodies suffer.

The result is that the medicine people, or doctors are kept very busy. And they are well paid. But when a person can’t pay for a doctor, or when a person is desperately ill, and the doctors just can’t help, then the person has to hope for a miracle.

If a miracle doesn’t happen, the suffering goes on for a long time.

Intelligence can come to the rescue, so that people see what culture does to children. The better therapy just involves letting people enjoy being unclothed and unbound and exposed to the natural elements the way humans were for more than a million years before all this culturing took over.

This is putting matters very bluntly. The modern assumption might be that people going naked are going to have illicit sex.

The nakedness doesn’t have to be total. And there is a lot more to this than nakedness. There is a lot of intellect to this. There is a lot of consciousness to it. And the food one eats is relevant, also, just as is the air one breathes.

The body accepts chemicals through the skin and through the nose and mouth. Some chemicals are toxic. In a toxic environment the body has to work hard to remove the toxins. To help the body, one can move to an area where the air and water and food are not poisonous. When the body doesn’t have to work so hard in removing poisons, then the body can work harder to repair damages done by years of being cultured, disciplined, and forced to do things which are bad for the body.

But is this just a faith cure? What do you think from what you know?

A central concept is the conservation of energy. When a nation is often having to fight a war because the neighbors keep being aggressive, then a lot of energy goes into the war effort. Property, lives, and money are spent on the war. And it is the same for a brain, a mind, and a body. When the body must be fighting toxins all the time, the body has little time and energy to become maximally well. And the mind can’t be optimally healthy and creative. There’s no magic to this. It is just systems theory and conservation of energy.

Now this is actually an article about God, that is to say, the object of your faith.

Even if you don’t have a God defined by your particular traditional culture, a God that is featured in a popular religion, you have a basic, personal faith. And when you don’t feel well, and you need a health treatment, you have faith in a certain kind of doctor. This doctor is the person you call on when you desperately need help! In this person you trust. And so it has always been for every cultured person.

But suppose you were living in prehistoric times, and you couldn’t run to the drug store for a bottle of aspirin. Suppose you had an accident and you needed to call forth The Power.

When you are alone, and you have an emergency, you need to muster all the mental power and physical power you can muster. If you can’t muster enough intelligence and do the right thing, you well may die. So you can see how in prehistoric times, it was advantageous for a man to be able to access his Higher Power without any priest or any other symbol for The Highest. Often a man carried some object with him, which had held a special meaning for him when he was out on a vision quest. So in the imagination of the primitive man, this object, the feel of it, the smell of it, and the look of it was a trigger or a stimulus in the man’s mind, which enabled his higher intelligence to function. When he needed to muster every ounce of his latent braininess, he used the physical object to help stimulate his brain.

This worked often enough for enough men, that at least in some tribes, there was enough higher intelligence to kill off or enslave the tribes whose men never discovered this trick.

Yes, it was a trick, a device, just like a bow and arrow is a device.

So today, there is a thriving market for amulets and talismans. Many people have some way of accessing the higher intelligence in them. Often the device is a golden cross, or a ring they fondle when they are in trouble, or some object that was dear to their mother or their father. And this device is very ancient and primitive, like the bow and arrow used by preliterate savages.

If there’s a way to make better use of this device, then the way will make intelligent persons even more intelligent. Human intelligence and creativity will rise to heights presently unimaginable.

We can introduce this subject by using the words “increasing the power of faith”. But these words don’t tell us what the device really is.

My performances show you what the device is. People who come and see me doing what I do with my body will be shown how this process works through my body to enable me to get new ideas. As they watch I will produce new ideas in art. They can listen to my music playing and they can read my poems, my stories, and my articles. And many of my articles explain how this wisdom in my body is explaining to them about itself.

The key idea is letting the body speak, even if what the body says is taboo, that is, against some old cultural teaching.

The sooner this is permitted in the child, the easier it is for the adult to be reformed, after years of being cultured.

The liberating method liberates the brain and the personality. And if a cultured person isn’t prepared for this process, and helped through it, then death is likely. Either the person will kill others and be killed, or his or her own life will be ended by some act which appears to be insane.

The goal of this method is to cure diseases which present doctors can’t cure, and to create a society of amazingly creative and intelligent persons.

The value in this work should be obvious, expecially in a world wracked by physical and mental diseases, a world in which so much damage is being done to the natural environment which in fact sustains all human life.

This isn’t the creation of a ruling elite. This is the creation of an intelligent working class.

Warning! Experimenting with spiritual energy is dangerous and such experimentation has led many persons to insanity, physical injury or even death. You are advised to not try repeating any activities which I describe and you are advised to not try repeating any of the experiments reported in any of the books I cite from or reported on pages at websites to which this website is linked.

Warning! Putting up a website or authoring a book on spirituality without giving a clear warning is irresponsible. Experimenting with light, vegetarianism, and spiritual energy can result in severe injury to yourself and to other people.
