Nutrition



By Don Bradley, May 2009



Having been a student of dietetics since I was about 17, it’s been an interesting ride to see how much the public’s perception has changed over the years. Until the 1990s, about as high-frequency as you could get was being vegetarian; as far as mainstream health was concerned. Even mention of that word, prior to that time, usually led to weird questions and vague inferences as to being some kind of nutcase. The usual rap from just about anyone was how necessary eating dead animals was to our survival and all the rest of that claptrap. This still goes on today, for one of my sons was told by his school teacher recently that if people were to go vegetarian they would weaken and die, and the economy would collapse because of all the dairy and animal farms. See how the programming works and at a young age? My son just openly laughed in class, being better informed upon the issue.
In the 1980s, there were very few healthful stores about, and those were usually small little out of the way places, with sawdust on the floor and with most of the health-food packages covered with a layer of dust. Usually, they were run by older women and ex-hippies, with long grey hair. Nothing was corporatized in those days. When a label said organic, it usually meant it was grown nearby and you could believe it, too.
Now, the whole health food thing is a big corporate industry. Most organic labels and small producers of healthy products have been bought out by the likes of Colgate, General Mills, Monsanto, and all the usual killers who have been GMOing our food and giving us chemicals instead of nutrition since the 1950s. Very often, while visiting a health food store, it’s a veritable sea of differing labels and stuff. And very, very expensive. A one pound bag of flax ten years ago was two bucks. Now, it’s forty dollars and still rising. To eat well, to avoid the chemical-agro industry requires a budgetary expenditure usually four to six times what is required in a usual chain grocery store, where all the foods are processed and all the vegetables are irradiated and have been genetically modified.
Even so, with a small budget, there are still ways to do the best we can and generally give our bodies the things it needs to stay healthy. Of course, if you have the money and can afford the very best, than you can probably do much better than the average person. You’ll have all the necessary organic supplements, you’ll have non-GMO food, and you can assure you and yours a healthy lifestyle that will provide for the very best of what your body needs.
I base the following on careful observation of what I’ve observed over the years, especially as it relates to diet. It seems that for most, diet is all about losing weight. Hmm…well that’s incorrect. Diet is about what we put into our bodies and when we should put it in there. Losing weight is about reversing a trend toward obesity because the person made and has continued to make, extremely poor life choices as regards to their diet.
If you are overweight and generally obese, these words will mean very little to you. You serve your stomach, gluttony, and are a slave to sweeteners, chemically modified foods, and have been hypnotized by network advertising to such an extreme, that you take little responsibility for reversing any trend toward a healthy diet until something severe happens in your life path, like diabetes, etc., And any fleeting thought of making a real change in your diet is instantly forgotten when a milkshake appears on the horizon. So be it. You have the freewill to be that, if you want. Go ahead, have another candy bar.
However, many people want freedom. In every sense of the word. That usually means that at one point in our life path, we must take stock of our diet and see if changes are necessary so that we can have a better functioning body that will do what we need it to do, so we can move to more important things. If you are such a person, than possibly you already know much of what you are reading and are about to read.
It’s been said many times, and by moi, that we must really take the time to listen to our bodies. When we are under emotional and mental stress (usually based on fear issues and thought forms,) it shows up in the body. If we have poor diet choices, it shows up in the body. If we are functioning against the higher potentials of this life wave, it shows up in the body. Everything devolves down to a physical issue, if ignored or suppressed.
Our first step and the easiest one, is to change our food choices and to do it slowly. I say this because radical changes will often lead to boomerang results, which will often—especially if you are weak in regards to being the master of your body—lead to you failing in your quest for a better diet and doing even more damage than was done previously. This is especially true if you are responsible for a group of people, such as your family, who have been for years, accustomed to having the old poisonous foods and regularly. Introduce changes firmly, but s l o w l y. If you want a total rebellion and reaction in your home, make sweeping changes overnight and you’ll have a full-scale revolt on your hands and a house full of pissed-off people. Modern processed foods are made to be addictive on purpose with additives that clearly create addictive personalities out of people. FACT. Many have made their changes early on, and their family is already on a healthy course. Well done. This article is like preaching to the choir for you.
By far, the hardest part of changing the diet in a home is when your spouse or significant other is totally enslaved by the chemical/agro food chain and has informed you that he/she likes things just the way they are…or else! This is still solvable, but you have to solve the problem correctly by making little changes here and there, and slowly—and this works best while eating dinner as a family—by educating the assemblage as to the food they are enjoying is thus and so, and for thus and so reasons. And golly, it tastes great! Then you have agreement. Children are most receptible to change, especially if they have been raised in a loving and encouraging home, devoid of television, fear, and anger.
What follows is what has worked for me. I paid close attention to my sons and gently made those changes, little by little, which would allow their bodies and especially their minds, to understand why these changes were occurring and so that there would be little addiction reaction by their various systems. Tell a kid no more soda and his body has a total fit. This is so, because colas are filled with many different kinds of addictive substances which causes withdrawal symptoms, the least of which is caffeine.
1. Get your family on water and make that your first and number one priority. That means you have to make a plan and stick with it at all hazards. Obviously, distilled water is the best, because most bottled water comes straight from municipal water supplies and is often so loaded with fluoride and other heavy metals that giving them that stuff is nearly as harmful as letting them drink a half dozen sugar drinks a day. And by the way, all those colas have fluoride in them. That’s a fact. The beverage makers use muni-water just like Arrowhead and Sparkletts water companies. And in the state of California, all bottled water sold in stores (except for distilled) has fluoride in it, as required by law. If it’s bottled in California, it has fluoride. Water is the number one cleanser of the body of any and all pollutions. It rinses, washes, energizes, hydrates, and animates everything that your body needs. Consider it the primary building block of any good diet. It all starts with water and goes uphill from there. Making diet changes and leaving water out of the equation is like building a house on sand. One day, the whole mess will come crashing down, taking you with it. You know the drill, about six to eight glasses a day. Start throwing out the sodas and please, stop buying energy drinks, by and large the worst liquids a person can drink. Do some online reading about them and it reads like nutritional horror stories. Energy drinks are poison. As are soft drinks, especially if in daily use. Bless your water before drinking and bless your food, every time you prepare a meal.
The boys and I were at a surfing competition among high schools a few months ago at Surfer’s Point in Ventura, just to see what all the blather was about, and a major beverage company had these little pretty blonds and brunettes in skimpy bikinis walking around offering free cans of RED BULL. Eventually, they got around to us and as she lifted the can, all I could see was this black energy field around the can. “No thanks.”
2. Next, start slowly having vegetarian or vegan only days. Here and there, but at least twice a week. Increase this every few weeks until you are at least at a place where you are serving vege-meals five days week. Sure, you can still have your meat days, but get to a place where they are requested. Usually and within a very short time, the bodies of your household will be responding to the new healthy paradigms and the old cravings will have gone by then. Mostly, after that point, it will be psychological cravings of gluttony that fuels the obesity fires so rampant in the western world, especially in America. Twenty years ago, at the beach, about one out of ten people was obese. Nowadays, it’s more like nine out of ten. At the beach, there are no lies, especially as regards to nutrition. You see it all there: the spotty skin, the sagging arms, the huge guts, everything.
3. While you are doing step number one, slowly stop buying sugar treats. Boxes of cookies and all that, flat-out have to go, except as the occasional treat. As well, make it so that within 45 days, your house is cola free and stick to it. You’ll notice that the sleep patterns in your home will become normalized and that as you reduce processed sugary foods, the glassy-eyes of your family will also vanish. Moods will become better. In point of fact, you’ll see a great many changes, all for the better. The thing is, avoid being fanatical about it. Your family wants some ice cream? Go ahead. Having it once in awhile is fine. Like with any sugar treat. But having every day and several times a day and you’ll be fat and diabetic, with terrible health very quickly. If your hubby or wife has to have a hamburger, be happy to make them one; hey, it’s all about freewill, you know. But if you do things right, explaining things correctly as you go without being dictatorial or strident like some martinet, than you’ll have agreement and cooperation with your suggested changes. Be smart about it, and do it with love, rather than with the whip.
4. Throw out all pill-based vitamins and minerals. Your body simply was never designed to process inorganic minerals. There it is. At best—AT BEST—your body will only process about 4% of them, the rest either clogging the lining of your colon, or toxifying your system. The body then becomes so polluted with these harmful inorganics, that they end up in your sweat, breath, and skin. You can really smell this foul toxic discharge any place on the body where moisture from glands collects: under the arms, between the legs, like that. Ever notice how senior citizens—all on various pill-based vitamins and minerals—smell like vitamins? This is so, because their bodies, at their advanced age, can no longer process out all those toxic metals and minerals and their sweat glands and lunges and skin are petrifying with the overload and it becomes their body odor. If you can smell vitamins on a person—like with alcoholics—it means their body has reached a total saturation point of toxicity and is now bleeding out the harmful substances through the lungs and skin. Notice how you can’t find this information on the internet? Notice how not one health food magazine or guru talks about this? Why? You can see it and smell it on people, when they breathe; the room fills with the odor. Once the body reaches toxification of anything, it ends up in our breath and sweat.
The solution is to make the change over to colloidal vitamins and minerals. This is so, because our bodies were designed to get vitamins and minerals from our food supply, mainly from fruits and vegetables. Plants take minerals from the earth through the uptake system of their roots. This then puts the mineral in suspension of colloid, which our body was designed to absorb and receive. Chelated vitamins are also good, and it’s best to have both and mix them up. Colloidal in the morning; chelated in the evening. Then, your body has and gets everything it needs to stay healthy, for all the systems that make up our personal biosphere. The reason we no longer get it in our food supply is because the big agro farms and even many organic producers only add NPK as minerals for plants to grow in. Sure, it makes the plants look great, but they are nutritionally devoid of the necessary minerals our bodies need to stay healthy and strong. Our family has been on Colloidal vitamins and minerals since 1995 and we rarely, if ever, get sick. Check it out.
5. Start making fruit shakes or smoothies on a daily basis. This is where you can go raw and vegan, and where you can provide the best nutrition your body needs. One of these babies, if made correctly, can supply your body with all manner of goodness. There are dozens of smoothie recipes out there, but while you are doing so, have fun with it. Some days are GREEN, which means leafy green smoothies with varying organic additions which will override the sometimes bitter taste of going green. Make other days strawberry days, or blueberry days; like that. Add flax, vegan protein powder, and whatever you feel guided to give your family. It will be different things on different days. Just listen. You’ll know. If done right, smoothies will become an often looked-for treat that everyone will want to have. After a few months of this new addition to the family diet, sodas and other nasty things will be looked upon with abhorrence; as well they should be. This is where you get the best vitamins and the best fuel for your body. It means the body gets what it was designed to get: Raw Food. Pay attention as you drink these things and you’ll get total affirmation responses from your body on every level. This lets you know it is happy that you’ve finally found the right gasoline for its various engines of being. Well done.
6. Stop using processed mixes and packaged dinner preps and move toward making everything in your kitchen from scratch. The big lie is that it takes more time. WRONG. It takes about the same time to make something from scratch as it does to pull it out of a box and all the stuff with it. The reason for going with scratch ingredients is so that the food you eat is additive free on every level. The additives put into food are designed to be addictive and destructive at the same time. FACT. Most food additives kill cells and create colon problems that can take up to seven years to fix, depending. This is a deal-breaker, friends. You will taste the difference right off. Why make Uncle Ben’s pre-made nasty rice, when you can pull out of bag of organic rice and boil some water? Do a kinesiology test of the two preparations and you’ll see which is better.
7. Cooking oils. Throw them out. All of them. All processed cooking oils do one thing and one thing at their very best or worst, as it really is. They slowly erode the myelin sheath around your nervous system. Want Parkinson’s and short-term memory loss at an early age? Do you like have increasingly poor motor skills? Like blurred vision do you? The reason ALL OF THESE so-called vegetable and canola oils are so bad is because they are made of short-chain fatty acids, which are poisons to the nervous system and the colon. The solution is olive oil. For use on the stove, get extra-light—which adds no extra taste to the meal—and for all other items such as baked breads or anywhere in your recipe that requires cooking oil, use olive oil instead. And get the good kind. Hand and cold-pressed olive oils, when frozen, create clear beautiful forms. Chemically processed olive oils look like an oil smudge when frozen and are cloudy; that’s how you test them. Olive oil comes from trees and is a long-chain fatty acid, which is the kind the body wants and needs. The switch over to olive oils also means you will no longer have liver problems and stones, btw, an added benefit, wouldn’t you agree? Olive oil has dozens of benefits beyond what has been mentioned. Check it out.
8. Throw your microwave oven into the trash. NOW. Irradiating your food is the absolute worst thing you can do to yourself. In short, you kill the spiritual life out of it, making it dead. DOA. No longer alive. Get a table top oven and start using it, if needs be. Learn to cook, if you have yet to make the transition to totally raw. It takes time to get to that place, especially if you have a family on your hands. Learn to use the oven under your stovetop. And save your family’s life in the process. BTW, if you are in a restaurant and get a baked potato, inquire if the potato is cooked in a microwave. Most restaurants use them for those kinds of preparations because they cook the potato fast. FYI.
9. It will come to pass that dairy is one of the last thresholds which ultimately must be crossed. At the very least, and if you can afford it, get dairy that is organic and free of hormones. You’ll know when this transition is necessary. In our family, we’ve pretty much switched away from all dairy. In the main. Distilled water works just as good in recipes as milk does, and very often, much better. The thing is to listen. When your body is ready and you’ve made many of the changes listed above, you’ll soon find that dairy is lowering your etheric frequency, especially during certain lunar cycles. Menstruating women are more attune to lunar cycles than men and will notice this need for change usually sooner than men. You’ll know. Trust in that knowing. Pray for guidance and direction in all dietary changes, and listen well.
10. As your body gets clear of its lifetime of toxins, start instituting annual and semi-annual colon cleanses and other detoxification protocols. Get your liver and kidneys back into shape. It will do little good to do it if your diet is still full of processed sugars and poisons, but once you get clear of these toxins, you’ll see and feel the need to do a full body flush. Get a good colon cleanse and get the past behind you once and for all and be free. The past is gone; time to let it go and release all those years of ignorance and self-destruction.
11. Obviously, throw out iodized salt and fluoridated toothpaste. Get plain table salt or sea salt. The good sea salt is not white (which means it was processed, which at the end of the day, is simply table salt again), but is slightly off-color, which means it has all 92 minerals that are present in ocean water. The problem with sea-salts is that again, the body prefers mineral in colloidal suspension, over any other form. Really, plain table salt is fine. Cook with that and be wary of the sea-salt propaganda going around. I’ve looked into it and it’s mostly nonsense. It’s your call, of course. But if your recipe calls for salt, then plain table salt (sodium chloride) is all you need to add and your body will do fine with it. Your body reacts to inorganic iodized salt as it would any toxin. In fact, do a taste test. Plain salt tastes like plain salt. Iodized salt actually will numb the tongue. As for fluoridation, avoid it at all costs. Some people will even tell you that its better to use just plain baking soda for toothpaste, but kids may rebel at the horrific taste of that stuff. At the very least, get fluoride-free toothpaste and go from there.
12. Check all your bathroom supplies for any ingredients which have aluminum in them and trash them at once and while you are at it, throw out all your aluminum and Teflon cookware. Get stainless steel and stop poisoning your body. Look…bird owners will tell you that using Teflon cookware will kill your pet birds. If it’s doing that to those sensitive little angels, imagine what it’s doing to you. Check it out; it’s a real nightmare.
13. While you are at it, start switching over to chemical free skin and body lotions. Your body wasn’t meant to have a 40 item list of unpronounceable chemicals slathered all over it on a daily basis. The skin is the largest organ in the body and it absorbs everything and in the body it goes. I made the switch over to chemical free skin lotions last year (have to, spend a lot of time in the sun and water) and my skin immediately responded by becoming tight again and all sagging disappeared—everywhere, within one month. It’s amazing how much chemicals are sold to women for “youthful skin” and they are actually toxifying it! The best one I’ve found (so far) is Desert Essence. No chemicals at all and organic to boot. Yay! The last two items may not seem like nutrition items at all but think about it: you are putting these things in your body. That means your body is absorbing it, like food, and has to process what it absorbs, right? It’s impossible to make food changes, but keep poisoning our bodies with chemicals which still harm it and think we are going forward. Anything that goes in or on the body has to be looked at.
14. If you drink or do drugs daily, well…’nuff said.
15. If you can, and have the space and live in a house, plant a garden. Get seeds and start planting as your particular seasons warrant. You can actually buy minerals online that you can mix into the earth so you can have the best vegetables ever. Every single day, go out and bless your plants, and give them a bit of love. All that loving affection will make those vegetables the best and brightest they can be. Lucky you, if you can have a vegetable garden.
16. When you go shopping, say a prayer: guide me to what me and my family need most this week. Please. Then be attentive, stay in the moment, stop day-dreaming and focus. See what shakes out.
Well, this is a good start, and obviously more can be said about the varying things regarding nutrition, but already this article is getting long and I’ve learned to keep things short and to the point. However, remember this and always: keep things in balance. The highest frequency foods are fruit. Next comes tree branch foods, like olives, grapes, etc. From there its bush type foods, then foods just above the ground; then ground based foods, legumes next, and finally tubes, like potatoes. The body needs them all to be in balance. Each food group, according to what I’ve observed has different spiritual actions to different parts of the body. I’m not referring to that load of horse-dung called the four food groups put out by the FDA which is an ongoing load of nonsense, but by the spiritual caliber and energetic action each food type I’ve listed above in this paragraph by brightness. Fruits carry the largest amount of sun energy and brightness, decreasing as the vegetable gets nearer to the ground. Meat and some dairy are literally dead material very often energized with fear because of the circumstances in which the animal was slaughtered, but that’s another article for another day. Your body needs all types of vegetables, not just fruit. Fruit energetically affects the region of between the knees and the navel, whereas peas and ground based vegetables work nearer to the throat and head. You can see the effects of meals on any body, any where, within a few minutes after consuming. Same with liquids, pills, or whatever goes on or in the body. It’s visible. Fifty pages could be written about this easily, with detail, and by food article.
Trust your own perceptions, do your own thinking and research. Double check everything. Learn, know, be, observe, like that. What was written in this article was how I got my nutrition world on track and I did it by listening mainly to what my body was saying to me. Some years, it was complete vegetarian. Some, not. Some are blends. Some are vegan. Pay attention and your body and your prayers will provide you with all the guidance you need to get healthy and provide a healthy home for your loved ones. Once you get the basic and honest nutrition education, it’s easy.
Be wary of the big agro companies and their propaganda organs. If it’s an advertisement on TV, that should be enough to send you in the opposite direction for the truth of things. It’s a good rule to follow. Corporations, the big pharmaceutical companies, and the like, want a sick and a weak population that is easily programmed, hypnotized, and obedient. And the food these monsters make available to the masses is mainly, poisonous to the body.
You can do it. It’s in your hands, and while we still have the freewill and choice to make the change. One day, only the elite will have access to organic and healthy foods. The rest of us will be given whatever version of soylent green they intend for us to consume.
God bless you and yours, and I wish you the very best on your journey to good health.

Fear



By Don Bradley, May 2009



My, how they sell it, package it, use it like a weapon, and shower it over the heads of the masses. Fear is the ultimate Weapon of Mass Distortion. It blinds, restricts, hypnotizes, impedes forward motion, and reduces the recipient to a quivering mass of spineless jelly, ready and able to receive any post-hypnotic suggestion and behavior. Fear is used mainly in our time as a control feature, its powerful solar-plexus frequencies shutting down the higher, leaving the mind and body under the animalistic control of the limbic brain and reactive thinking. And this is just the beginning.

Like most people, I’ve had my own confrontations with fear. At 19, I stood on the edge of a water control dam—only four inches wide at the top—with a drop off of about 60 feet on one side and about 90 feet on the other, all the while with a guitar strapped on and playing. The idea occurred to me to walk out on this ledge to the center of the dam (no hand rails or footing other than the 4” surface) and continue playing the piece. Naturally, from the pit of my stomach, came the reaction and fierce rejection of the suggestion. “If you fall, you’ll surely die,” kind of thing and so on. However, gently and firmly from above that pit, came the suggestion, “you’ll be fine.” So, I stepped out onto the ledge, all the while still playing, and went to the center of the dam and sat down. To this day, I am unable to explain how I was able to sit down, continue playing, and stand back up when the piece was done and return to the other side. The friends I was with didn’t say a word, neither to encourage nor object; they simply watched what was to them, something both insane and unbelievable.

I dealt with fear through cliff-diving, surfing, death, white-water rafting, treating with prowlers late at night, taking insane risks, and dealing with the mind-numbing viscidities of fate and what it brings to our door at the most unexpected times. Each time, the fear welled up inside me. Each time, it had to take a back-seat to the higher guidance I was learning to trust in. As many of us do, to be certain. Each time, the voice of fear grew less powerful, less controlling, when I refused to submit to it. Every time someone attacked me physically in my life, I began to find that I felt zero fear, even as I lay hospitalized with dozens of contusions to my head. I simply disallowed its powerful entry as a control feature in my life. I had a fear of flying (mainly to a few near air crashes when I was younger,) and as a birthday present to myself about a dozen years ago, hired a small Cessna to take me over the ocean. Again the fear welled up inside, as before, and again, it was put down as the ancient devil I had come to know all too very well. Not a quarter goes by without some kind of public attack—with physical threats to my person and implied harm. Each time, I check to see if the frequency of fear is to be found inside myself. This ancient evil, I am happy to report, is non-existent as a threat to my internal self awareness and strength. Several years ago, I began to test if even a miter of fear was still present on any kind of subjective, subconscious level by checking my pulse in dire circumstances and when under physical attack, especially when it related to a group of thugs intent of erasing my existence, as happened twice last year. My pulse rate remained low and steady. These are just the physical fears, usually ascribed to our more animal self, our physical bodies: fight or flight, if you will. There are other fears. Emotional and mental fears, which are far more devious to detect and defeat, given that fact that so very much of our identity is wrapped up in fearful self-perceptions and programming by our experiences and educational foundations inherent in the life we have lived, each to his or her own.

I illustrate the above points for two reasons. That like many of you, I’ve faced my fears and beat them…so far. And that, in order to write the following article, there is a certain frame of reference that this author has and in some small way, capable of speaking about with a degree of firsthand experience. This means that if someone as such as I can do it, anyone can. But before we get into the victory side of the equation, let’s look at the causations of fear and how it does what it does and why.

More than any one physical, emotional, and mental state in humanity, fear is by and large the most powerful contributor to action states, in both behavioral and sociological terms of understanding. You’ll be hard-pressed to find this information in psychological books or journals. If anyone is more locked into fear paradigms, it’s the head-shrinkers to have turned so many people of higher potential in mental wrecks. It’s why they have the highest suicide rate of any profession. Their fear and low self-esteem is of the worst kind.

So far, we’ve discussed physical fears, which each of us can relate to on some level. For all have undergone this experience. That car that zips just inches in front of you at an intersection in traffic and the amazingly fast working of fear and adrenaline rush that comes with that. That trepidation that is felt as we cross a steep gully on a log, with a sheer drop on either side that spells certain destruction (done that.) We all know about physical fears.

The reason we feel this fear and sense it as a consciousness quite outside ourselves at souls, is because it is outside ourselves. As we’ve learned from the photography I’ve been making public for some years now, everything in nature is alive, on an elemental level and in the various kingdoms. We see the faces in the water, the sky, the trees, in fire, and so on. We see and have come to understand that the whole of creation is a living, breathing reality with varying forms of consciousness animating each form of life and its myriad expressions.

Once we understand this fact of life, it then occurs to us that we ourselves are in fact, miniatures of the world in which we find ourselves. Our physical, emotional, and mental bodies are as well, inhabited by the very self-same elements which make up the world in which we live. It stands to reason then that these vehicles of expression—of which the soul finds itself able to function and express itself—are conscious on the same elemental level that the elements of our world are conscious. They have a life, purpose, reason for being, job to do, and will to live—just as they do in the ocean, lakes, rivers, sky, and in the fireplace.

They literally have an existence to be. And their to be, is to provide every plant, animal, and human with a functioning body in which the spirituous or soul, can live, move, and have its being. It then becomes a symbiotic relationship in which we need our bodies and they need our soul, for both to exist on the physical plane. Think long and hard about this last series of statements, coupled with the evidence this writer has given over in the previous years. Some lights will come on.

Very often, I will tell my sons, “listen to what your body is saying to you,” about this or that food or activity. Things that are destructive to the body will yield a negative reaction, whereas wholesome food and drink, and healthy activities will provide an affirming response. There is even a science in this regard known as muscle testing or Kinesiology. This is proof that the body is quite capable of communicating its likes and dislikes, as regards what it knows is best for its survival. That implies what exactly is so as fact: the body is conscious, even if we are unaware of the facts in the case consciously; the body knows when a poison is being handed to it or when something healthy is being provided. And this goes way beyond food. The body, via even the rudimentary level of kinesiology, will communicate its needs, warnings, and other realities as it applies to clothing, housing, items of use, even sound and color.

The body is conscious, beyond chemical/electrical connections via the pathways of the nervous system and brain. How else to explain its ability to sense poisons from non-poisons, even when the items to be tested are in sealed, unmarked containers?

This is so because this elemental consciousness is a living, lower order class of being. For the physical plane, its perceptions and functions are at once clear and decipherable, even if the host inhabitant (human soul) is wholly unaware and disconnected with this consciousness. Because animals function less as individualized souls and more instinctual, they are therefore more in tune with their body’s elemental. This explains why ants will avoid aspartame and other poisons, which human beings seem quite eager to consume, much to their detriment. The animal kingdom is more closely linked to the physical elemental than humanity is; except in advanced cases where the soul of the man, woman, or child has purposely made the connection, yet while retaining command and control.

Most of humanity is a slave to its elementals when said consciousness uses fear to express itself. Because the elemental has total control over the body, it is able to secret various enzymes from various glands, which enable it to achieve its necessary aims. Fear is its main control feature, forcing the human soul within to obey.

Given the above, it would seem that obeying these fear frequencies are not only sensible, but a good idea, given the elemental’s connection to the corporeal reality. In our younger stages, especially when we are dependent upon parents for food, shelter, and clothing, this elemental feature is a kind of safety device which protects the child from basic dangers: the rabid dog, the black widow, strangers with mal-intent, and so on.

However, in order to grow beyond fear, we must become a master of it, so that we can then find freedom. And the first fears to be mastered are the physical fears. It is there that we set the tone of our future victories in the emotional and mental realities, of which the true slaveries on this planet threaten our very existence by the master controllers who have used fear for thousands of years to keep this planet in bondage.

To attain this mastery we simply must listen to any inspiring suggestions which encourage us to face our fears. We can discern this by the overwhelming sense of calm, peace, balance, and helpful nod that things will be okay. This is our divine connection within ourselves which is inspiring us to step up to the plate and become more than what we were before. This kind of loving encouragement is telling us that we are ready and able to make a new grade of being, to be more in mastery of our bodies than we previously thought possible.

Happily, this kind of divine guidance will often work as the elemental does, in warning us dangers, but without the adrenaline rush and mind-crushing communication that comes with fear. We still get the protection we used to get from the elemental, but we retain our balance, composure, clarity of thought, and most importantly, because we are mastering our fears, we get something extra: the ability to see the situation as it really is.

As many already know, the moment we choose to make these first steps in overcoming our fears, we find that we then have new-found levels of courage, conviction, and an increasing aspiration to overcome life’s obstacles on more than just what comes at us as physical events. We grow a spine, a backbone, and are eager to do and be more. We get inklings that we’ve only just begun, too. That there are other fears to be known and defeated; emotional fears and fears of the mind, by far the hardest to detect, and yet the easiest to defeat, once discerned.

We also begin to feel as though we are finally living. And that the old “us”—all full of fear and indecision—was a life lived in a kind of prison. A prison without walls, except in our own minds. We see how many times fear kept us from speaking, doing, and being. How many times we could have been, but our fears kept us back.

These are the moments in which the fears of feeling and of mind begin to make themselves visible. We finally begin to see that the real us—the aware and loving soul within the bodies—has been kept back, slowed, delayed, and hindered every step of the way by fears implanted in us by the culture, education, and rulers of our time. As we look back in history, we see that every slavery was sold to us, using mental, emotional, and physical fears as the means to deploy said slaveries upon the planet. We see its deployment in banking, wars, race relations, family relations, and in every aspect of our life, bar none.

Then the lights really start to come on, bit by bit. Then we start asking the big questions: Who is selling this fear and why?

At that moment, we start beginning to see the world as it really is. Fear is sold constantly as a means in which one party seeks to influence and control the behavior of another party. I have these scams laid on me all the time, with zero effect. They are visible to me, though it disappoints and even surprises that they are still used as weapons against me. If it didn’t work the first 200 times, what makes them think it will work now? Still, they try. If anything can be said of the dark side, they are a persistent lot.

Once we see the reality of fear paradigms within ourselves as control features, then we can see them in the world. But to have true victory, we must make real effort to understand how our minds work. We must understand how worry, fear, trepidation, and other aspects are all just varying magnitudes of fear. We can do this by observing how we function as souls using a mind, just as we observe and understand our bodies. We need to see that we are above these vehicles, yet they are extensions of our soul in expression. Once we clearly see that this is so, we can then proceed to work on seeing how fear keeps us mentally, emotionally, and physically in a kind of perpetual bondage that must end.

As long as we are subject and controlled by any and all kinds of fear, we are slaves. Regardless of how much power, money, and prestige we may believe we have, as souls, we are barely much better than animals. This may seem a slight towards those still in bondage, but rest assured that it merely means that animals as we know, are domesticated and trained to be whatever their trainers want them to be, whether it’s a puppy dog, cat, tiger, or horse. And that exactly describes the world today, as in times past.

We see it all around us, in television, articles, and movies and so on.

Last week, I was at the beach surfing and it being a weekday, there were only a few people there, and I knew them as fellow surfers. We surf together when we happen to be at the same break. Lo and behold, as I was standing on the road over-looking the beach, a channel 3 film-crew pulls up and wants to interview me and Sue, who was there with her husband, Randy. Boy oh boy, talk about selling the fear. It seems there was a double homicide on the beach at a house a bit up the way two nights before and she wanted us to say on camera how afraid we were about being around with a murderer loose! Really!

Her fist question was “Aren’t you afraid of being out here with a killer on the loose?”
NO.
She was clearly disappointed. She asked Sue the same question.
NO.

The newscaster was again disappointed, and showed it. She wanted a fear reaction, but Sue and I wouldn’t give her one. We both could see that she wanted to sell fear and refused to be party to selling that evil on the six-o’clock news. I made sure she could see I was saddened to see that she had chosen a profession where her goal of the day was to sell fear to the masses. I am sure our interviews never made it on the air. Other film crews showed up, but we avoided them by hitting the waves. They all wanted the same thing: to shove fear down the public’s throat. This is what their producers told them to go out and get.

Now, who are these people that tell newscasters to seek out citizens and get them to blather on about how all afraid they are? They have names. They have motives. They have lots of money. They have a kind of power. And it’s a power based on the energy of fear as a control weapon.

TO BE CONTINUED.

Minerals

- Tim O'Shea
Minerals is one confusing topic. Inorganic, organic, chelated, elemental, ionic, colloidal, essential, trace - all these claims! What do we really need? Credentials in nutrition apparently mean very little when it comes to minerals. Much of what is written about minerals is speculative, market-oriented, or dead wrong.
A net search on minerals is an overwhelming assault on one's patience, time and credulity. How could all this stuff be right?
Minerals come from mines. Except when you're talking about nutrition. Then they come from food. At least they used to. When we still had some viable topsoil.
Four elements compose 96% of the body's makeup:
*carbon*hydrogen*oxygen*nitrogen
The remaining 4% of the body's composition is mineral.
WHY TAKE MINERALS?
The average lifespan of an American is about 77 years. No one has ever proven that taking mineral supplements will extend life. Many old people never took a mineral or a vitamin in their life. It really comes down to quality of life. How many of the last years were spent in illness? Mineral content factors largely in the quality of our solutes: the blood - the milieu interior, the biological terrain. That determines overall health.
The U.S. has the highest incidence of degenerative diseases of any developed country on earth. In addition, infectious diseases are coming back; antibiotics are getting less effective every year. Americans' confidence in prescription drugs is weakening. Cancer and AIDS will never be cured by the discovery of some new drug. There will never be another Alexander Fleming; turns out penicillin was just a brief detour anyway. Bacteria have had 50 billion years to figure out how to adapt. The only way that anyone recovers from any illness is when the immune system overcomes the problem. Allergy shots never cured an allergy; people who take allergy shots always have allergies.
Our only hope of better health is to do everything possible to build up our natural immune system. One of these preventative measures is nutritional supplementation. It may not be dramatic, but daily deposits to the immune system bank account will pay off down the road. Healthy people don't get sick.
There are six nutrient groups:
*Water*Vitamins*Minerals*Fats*Protein*Carbohydrate
All groups are necessary for complete cell function.
The following table shows the 21 minerals that have been shown to have nutritive value for humans.
Macro means more than 100mg per day.
Trace usually means either the requirements are measured in micrograms or that the amount required has never been measured.
Essential means the body can’t manufacture it: we must get it from the diet.

*Chromium*Tin*Zinc*Vanadium*Copper*Silicon*Manganese*Nickel*Iron*Molybdenum*Fluorine*Iodine*Cobalt*Selenium- U.S. Dept. of AgricultureNational Research Council
Deficiency amounts have never been determined for many trace minerals, although several diseases have been linked with deficiencies of certain ones.
Beyond this, the marketplace takes over and science bows out. People are out there talking about 88-mineral toddies, minerals from ancient lakes, longevity of 150 years, calcium from pasteurized milk, calcium from coral reefs, mineral doses measured in grams, salubrious doses of silver, "normal" doses of lead, eye of newt, etc., making claims about this or that combination, trumpeting anecdotal cures for everything from cancer to hangnails.
The purpose of this chapter will be to try to sift through the debris and leave behind only the information which can be verified.
HISTORY OF MINERALS
The necessity for minerals is a recent historical discovery, only about 150 years old. In the 1850s, Pasteur's contemporary, Claude Bernard, learned about iron. Copper came about 10 years later, and zinc about the turn of the century.
With the discovery of Vitamin A in 1912, minerals were downplayed for about 50 years in favor of vitamin research. By 1950, after about 14 vitamins had been discovered, attention returned once more to minerals when it was shown that they were necessary co-factors in order for vitamins to operate. Minerals are co-factors for most biological reactions. Soon the individual functions of minerals in the body were demonstrated:
*Structural: bones, teeth, ligaments*Solutes and electrolytes in the blood*Enzyme actions*Energy production from food breakdown*Nerve transmission*Muscle action
For several years now, even mainstream medicine has acknowledged the incontrovertible importance of mineral supplementation. An example: In an article appearing in JAMA, the top American medical journal, 24 Dec 1996, a controlled study of selenium use for cancer patients was written up. [24] Selenium as you remember, effects powerful antioxidant activity, neutralizing free radicals, which are rampant in the presence of cancer. In this study, 1312 subjects were divided into groups. Some were given selenium; others the placebo.
There was a decrease of 63% with prostate cancer, and 46% with lung cancer in the selenium group. The results were so blatant that the designers actually terminated the study early so that everyone could begin to benefit from selenium.
This is just one example of the research that is currently being done on mineral supplementation. The problem is, if the results of studies economically threaten a current drug protocol, like chemotherapy, it is unlikely that an inexpensive natural supplement like selenium would be promoted by oncologists as a replacement any time soon.

Mineral deficiency means that some of these jobs will not get done. The body is capable of prodigious degrees of adaptation, and can operate for long periods of time with deficiencies of many of the above. But someday those checks will have to be cashed. When that happens: premature aging. Cell breakdown.
Without minerals, vitamins have little or no effect. Minerals are co-factors - triggers for thousands of essential enzyme reactions in the body. No trigger - no reaction. Without enzyme reactions, caloric intake is meaningless, and the same for protein, fat, and carbohydrate intake. Minerals trigger the vitamins and enzymes to act; the 3 legs of a stool.
DEFICIENCY
Mineral deficiency is not really a subject of controversy today. Soil depletion has been well documented since the US Senate made their study back in 1936. Their conclusion was that:
"...most of us are suffering from certain diet deficiencies which cannot be remedied until deplete soils from which our food comes are brought into proper mineral balance."
"The alarming fact is that food...now being raised on millions of acres of land that no longer contain enough...minerals are starving us, no matter how much of them we eat."
"Lacking vitamins, the system can make use of minerals, but lacking minerals, vitamins are useless." Senate Document 264 74th Congress, 1936 [25]
The same document went on to quantify the extent of mineral deficiency:
"99% of the American people are deficient in minerals, and a marked deficiency in any one of the more important minerals actually results in disease."
Congressional documents are generally not highly regarded as scientific sources, and other reference texts cite other percentages. The figures quoted by Albion Laboratories, the world leader in patents on supplemental minerals, are somewhat lower, and more credible, and agree with Udo Erasmus, another expert in the field:
DEFICIENCIES - % of U.S. Population
*Magnesium - 75%*Iron - 58%*Copper - 81%*Manganese - 50%*Chromium - 90%*Zinc - 67%*Selenium - 60%
sources: Albion Labs, Fats That Heal [30]
FIVE REASONS FOR MINERAL DEFICIENCY:
1. SOIL DEPLETION
Different studies will show different figures, of course, but there is certainly no lack of evidence for mass deficiencies of mineral intake. The most obvious of these is soil depletion and demineralization.
In 1900, forests covered 40% of the earth. Today, the figure is about 27%. (Relating Land Use and Global Land Cover, Turner, 1992 [5]). Aside from hacking down rainforests in order to raise beef cattle or soy or to build condos, one of the main reasons for the dying forests is mineral depletion.
According to a paper read at the 1994 meeting of the International Society for Systems Sciences, this century is the first time ever that "mineral content available to forest and agricultural root systems is down 25%-40%." Less forests means less topsoil. In the past 200 years, the U.S. has lost as much as 75% of its topsoil, according to John Robbins in his Pulitzer-nominated work Diet for a New America [4]. To replace one inch of topsoil may take anywhere from 200-1000 years, depending on climate. (Utah Teachers Resource Books) [3]
Demineralization of topsoil translates to loss of productive capacity. Contributing further to this trend is the growing of produce that is harvested and shipped far away.
The standard NPK (nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium) fertilizer farmers commonly use is able to restore the soil enough to grow fruits and vegetables which are healthy looking, but may be entirely lacking in trace minerals. The inventor of the entire NPK philosophy, Baron von Leibig, recanted his own theories before he died when he saw the deficiencies his methods were fostering as they became the agricultural standard in both Europe and America. [29]
Mineral depletion in topsoil is hardly a controversial issue. The question is not if, but how much. Plants are the primary agents of mineral incorporation into the biosphere. The implication for our position on the food chain is simply: lowered mineral content in produce grown in U.S. topsoil.
You won't find any source that insists that the mineral content of American topsoil is as good today as it was 50 years ago. Generally, studies talk in terms of how much, if any, minerals are still present.
2. DIET
The second contributor to mineral deficiency within the population is obviously, diet. Even if our produce did contain abundant minerals, less than 4% of the population eats sufficient fruits and vegetables to account for minimal RDAs. To compound matters, mass amounts of processed food, excess protein, and refined sugars require most of our mineral stores in order to digest it and remove it. The removal process involves enzymes, which break things down. Enzyme activity, remember, is completely dependent on minerals like zinc and copper and chromium. No minerals - no enzyme action.
In addition, pasteurized dairy products, alcohol, and drugs inhibit the absorption of these minerals, further depleting reserves. So it is cyclical: refined foods inhibit mineral absorption, which then are not themselves efficiently digested because of diminished enzyme activity. And then we go looking for bugs as the cause of disease?
3. MUCOID PLAQUE
In the chapter on the COLON we saw how the standard indigestible American diet packs layer upon layer of plaque onto the inner lining of the colon. One of the prime functions of the colon is to resorb water, in order to prevent dehydration. Plaque prevents such a reclamation, and the result is that we lose both water and minerals that normally should be reabsorbed.
4. COMPETITION
The fourth reason for inadequate minerals in the body is a phenomenon known as secondary deficiency. It has been proven that an excess of one mineral may directly cause a deficiency of another, because minerals compete for absorption, compete for the same binding sites, like a molecular Musical Chairs. Secondary deficiency means that an excess of one mineral causes a deficiency of another. (Kidd)
For example, iron, copper, and zinc are competitive in this way. Copper is necessary for the conversion of iron to hemoglobin, but if there is excess zinc, less iron will be available for conversion, because zinc is competing. This may result in a secondary deficiency of iron, which can manifest itself as iron deficiency anemia. All due simply to excess zinc. Researchers have found that these secondary deficiencies caused by excess of one mineral are almost always due to overdosing on mineral supplements, since the quantities contained in food are so small.
A few other competitions:
*aluminum competes with silicon*cadmium competes with zinc*tellurium competes with selenium" - Kidd, p42
Think about this the next time some genius tries to tell you that your particular health problem can be remedied with daily mega-doses of calcium, iron, zinc, silver, or stainless steel, which he just by coincidence happens to have on hand....
Human mineral requirements are very small, but specific.
5. DRUGS
A fourth reason for mineral deficiency in humans is overuse of prescription drugs. It has been known since the 1950s that antibiotics interfere with uptake of minerals, specifically zinc, chromium, and calcium. (The Plague Makers [32])
Tylenol, Advil, Motrin, and aspirin have the same inhibitive effect on mineral absorption. Moreover, when the body has to try and metabolize these drugs to clear the system, its own mineral stores are heavily drawn upon.
Such a waste of energy is used to metabolize laxatives, diuretics, chemotherapy drugs, and NSAIDs out of the body. This is one of the most basic mechanisms in drug-induced immunosuppression: minerals are essential for normal immune function.
BIOAVAILABILITY
Ultimately, the only issue that really counts with minerals is bioavailability. Really doesn't matter what we eat; it only matters what makes it to the body's cells.
Let's say someone is iron deficient, for example. Can't he just take a bar of iron and file off some iron filings into a teaspoon, and swallow them? Just took in more iron, didn't he? Well, yes but here is a major distinction: the difference between elemental minerals and nutrient minerals. Iron filings are in the elemental form; absorption will be 8% or less. [Ashmead]
Another word for elemental is inorganic.
Same with most store-bought multi supplements.
Food-bound iron, on the other hand, like that contained in raisins or molasses, will have a much higher rate of absorption, since it is complexed with other living, organic forms, and as such is classed as a nutrient mineral.
Minerals are not living, though they are necessary for life. Minerals are necessary for cell life and enzyme reactions and hundreds of other reasons. But they must be in a form that can make it as far as the cells. What is not bioavailable passes right through the body, a waste of time and money.
Bioavailability has a precursor, an opening act. It is called absorption. Take a mineral supplement pill. Put it in a glass of water and wait half an hour. If it is unchanged, chances are that the tablet itself would never even dissolve in the stomach or intestine, but pass right out of the body. You would be astounded how many mineral supplements there are in this category.
OK, let's say the tablet or capsule actually does dissolve in the digestive tract. Then what? In order to do us any good, the mineral must be absorbed into the bloodstream, through the intestinal walls. Elemental (inorganic) minerals are absorbed about 1-8% in this manner. The rest is excreted.
Elemental minerals are those found in the majority of supplements, because they're very cheap to produce. For the small percentage that actually makes it to the bloodstream, the mineral is available for use by the cells, or as a cofactor in thousands of essential enzyme reactions that keep every cell alive every second. Use at the cellular level is what bioavailability is all about.
With this background in mind we can begin to understand that varying amounts of the seven macrominerals and approximately 14 trace minerals, in a bioavailable form are necessary for optimum cell activity, optimum health and would seem to contribute to longevity. So besides epidemic mineral deficiency, what's the problem?
In a word,
SUPPLEMENTATION
Mineral deficiency has become such an obvious health concern, causing specific diseases because of a lack of a single mineral, and general immune suppression with a lack of several, that the obvious need for supplementation has spawned an entire industry to the rescue. But in any market-driven industry involving pills, we sometimes find the cures are worse than the original problems. Why?
First off, toxicity. Remember, even macrominerals are only necessary in tiny amounts. Most trace minerals are necessary in amounts too small to be measured, and can only be estimated. Toxicity is a word that simply means excess. When extra stuff gets put into the body, it's a big deal. All forces are mobilized for removal of the extra stuff - the antigens, toxins, poisons, reactants, etc.
Toxicity results from taking a nonessential non-nutrient mineral into the body.
Take lead poisoning, for example. If lead gets into the blood, the body will try to remove it. Since the metal atoms are so heavy compared with the body's immune forces, removal may be impossible. Lead can initiate a chronic inflammatory response and can remain in the body permanently, which is why we don't have lead in paint or gasoline any more.
Most minerals can be toxic if taken to excess. And this excess would not happen from food; only from supplements or the environment.
Again, remember this the next time somebody tries to rope you into taking 3000 mg of calcium per day, or huge amounts of any mineral. Anytime you hear this song and dance, guaranteed the next step will be about marketing.
SO, WHAT SUPPLEMENTS WOULD BE INFERIOR?
Well, for starters, any supplement containing more than about 21 minerals, because that's all that have been proven to be necessary for humans. New toxicities are always being discovered. Aluminum linked to Alzheimer's is a recent discovery. Beyond these 21 or so it's simply anybody's guess, no matter what they tell you about the 5 civilizations where people live to be 140 years old.
People who show dramatic improvements from taking these 60 and 80-mineral drinks generally were so depleted that they rapidly absorbed the essential minerals in which they were deficient. But the toxicities from the nonessential, unknown minerals may take a long time to show up. Why take in anything extra?
Here's an example of an ingredient list from one of these mega-mineral drinks: Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Vanadium, Manganese, Potassium, Selenium, Chromium, Phosphate, Iron, Sulfur, Carbon, Sodium, Barium, Strontium, Cesium, Thorium, Molybdenum, Nickel, Cerium, Germanium, Copper, Rubidium, Antimony, Gallium, Neodymium, Lanthanum, Bismuth, Zirconium, Thallium, Tungsten, Ruthenium, Boron, Iodine, Chloride, Bromine, Titanium, Cobalt, Dysprosium, Scandium, Samarium, Fluoride, Niobium, Praseodymium, Erbium, Hafnium, Lithium, Ytterbium, Yttrium, Cadmium, Holmium, Rhenium, Palladium, Gold, Thulium, Terbium, Iridium, Tantalum, Europium, Lutetium, Rhodium, Tin, Indium, Silver, Beryllium, Tellurium, and Platinum.
Any questions?
Amidst all the confusion about minerals, one thing should be made clear: we only need a little. So the mineral supplements we take should be as absorbable and as bioavailable as possible. That way we won't have to take much. Less chance of toxicity.
So the question then becomes: which mineral supplements are the most absorbable and the most usable, and therefore effective in the smallest amounts possible? Four candidates present themselves, all contending for the title:
*Elemental*Ionic*Colloidal*Chelated
Unraveling this puzzle is one area where blindly surfing the internet very likely impedes progress. Try it and you'll see why.
There's only one answer, but it's buried deep. To find it, we have to review a little
BASIC PLUMBING
The digestive tract goes like this: mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and out. Mineral absorption means transferring the mineral from the digestive tract through the wall of the intestine, into the bloodstream.
You really have to picture this: the digestive tract is just a long tube, from one end to the other. As long as food and nutrients are inside this tube, they are actually considered to be still outside the body, because they haven't been absorbed into the bloodstream yet. This is an essential concept to understanding mineral absorption.
Minerals can't do any good unless they make it into the bloodstream. This is exactly why most minerals bought at the grocery store are almost worthless: they pass right through the body - in one end and out the other. It's also why most nutritionists' and dieticians' advice is valueless; they commonly pretend everything that is eaten is absorbed.
Two main reasons for lack of absorption:
- the pill never dissolved - the mineral was in its elemental form (non-nutrient, e.g., iron filings)
Let's say these problems are overcome; neither is true. Or let's say the mineral is contained within some food, such as iron in molasses, or potassium in bananas. Food-bound minerals are attached or complexed to organic molecules. Absorption into the blood is vastly increased, made easy. The mineral is not just a foreign metal that has been ingested; it is part of food.
Fruits and vegetables with high mineral content are a very good way to provide the body with adequate nutrition. Food-bound minerals were the original mode. As we saw above, however, sufficient mineral content is an increasingly rare occurrence. Foods simply don't have it. How little, what portion of normal depends on what studies one finds. Soon the necessity for supplementation becomes obvious: if the food no longer has it, and we need it, pass the supplements, please. At that point, the marketplace assaults one's awareness and we're back to the days of the tonics, brews, toddies, powders and potions of yesteryear.
THE FOUR TYPES OF MINERAL SUPPLEMENTS
1. ELEMENTAL
Least beneficial are the supplements containing minerals in the elemental form. That means the mineral is just mentioned on the label. It's not ionized, it's not chelated, it's not complexed with an oxide or a carbonate or a sulfate, or with a food, and it's not colloidal. It may not even be there at all. Like under "ingredients" it just says "iron" or "copper," or "calcium," etc.
Elemental minerals are obviously the cheapest to make. A liquid would only have to be poured over some nails to be said to contain iron. Elemental minerals are the most common in grocery store supplements. Most of these multi's are actually manufactured by the pharmaceutical industry, either directly or indirectly. Run it down.
They may not be toxic, as long as only the minerals mentioned on the label are included in the supplement. The problem is absorption: it's between 1 and 8 percent. The rest passes right through. Not only a waste of money; also a waste of energy: it has to be processed out of the body.
2. IONIC
Next comes ionic minerals. Usually a step up. Ionic means in the form of ions. Ions are unstable molecules that want to bind with other molecules. An ion is an incomplete molecule.
There is a definite pathway for the absorption of ionic minerals through the gut (intestine) into the blood. In fact, any percent of the elemental minerals that actually got absorbed became ions first, by being dissolved in stomach acids.
Ionic minerals are not absorbed through the intestine intact.
The model for mineral ion absorption through the intestine is as follows. Ions are absorbed through the gut by a complicated process involving becoming attached or chelated to some special carrier proteins in the intestinal wall. Active transport is involved; meaning, energy is required to bring the ionic mineral from inside the intestine through the lining, to be deposited in the bloodstream on the other side. [7]
Ionic minerals may be a good source of nutrients for the body, depending upon the type of ions, and on how difficult it is for the ion to get free at the appropriate moment and location. Minerals require an acidic environment for absorption. Remember low pH (less than 7) is acidic; high pH (above 7) is alkaline. As the stomach contents at pH 2 empty into the small intestine, the first few centimeters of the small intestine is the optimum location for mineral absorption. The acidic state is necessary for ionization of the dissolved minerals.
If the pH is too alkaline, the ions won't disassociate from whatever they're complexed with, and will simply pass on through to the colon without being absorbed.
As the mineral ions are presented to the lining of the intestine, if all conditions are right, and there are not too much of competing minerals present, the ions will begin to be taken across the intestinal barrier, making their way into the bloodstream. This is a complicated, multi-step process, beyond the scope of this chapter. Simply, it involves the attachment of the free mineral ion to some carrier proteins within the intestinal membrane, which drag the ion across and free it into the bloodstream. A lot happens during the transfer, and much energy is required for all the steps. Just the right conditions and timing are necessary: proper pH, presence of vitamins for some, and the right section of the small intestine. [7]
Ionic mineral supplements do not guarantee absorption by their very nature, although they are certainly more likely to be absorbed than are minerals in the raw, elemental state. However, ionic minerals are in the form required for uptake by the carrier proteins that reside in the intestinal wall.
The uncertainties with ionic minerals include how many, how much, and what else are the unstable ions likely to become bound to before the carrier proteins pick them up. All ionic supplements are not created equal. Just because it's an ion doesn't mean a supplemental mineral will be absorbed. Too many minerals in a supplement will compete for absorption. Too much of one mineral will crowd out the others. The idea is to offer the body an opportunity for balance; rather than to overload it with the hope that some will make it through somehow. All we need is a little.
Ionic minerals are the second lowest form of supplementation.
3. COLLOIDAL
Speaking of overloading, the third type of supplemental minerals is called colloidal. What does colloidal really mean? Colloidal refers to a solution, a dispersion medium in which mineral particles are so well suspended that they never settle out: you never have to shake the bottle.
The other part of the dictionary definition has to do with diffusion through a membrane: "will not diffuse easily through vegetable or animal membrane." Yet this is supposed to be the whole rationale for taking colloidal minerals - their absorbability. Colloidal guru Joel Wallach himself continuously claimed that it is precisely the colloidal form of the minerals that allows for easy diffusion and absorption across the intestinal membrane, because the particles are so small. Wallach claims 98% absorption, but cites no studies, experiments, journal articles or research of any kind to back up this figure. Why not? Because there aren't any. The research on colloidal minerals has never been done. It's not out there. Senate Document 264 doesn't really cover it. Nor did Wild Kingdom.
In reality, colloidal minerals are actually larger than ionic minerals, as discussed by researcher Max Motyka, MS. [22] Because of the molecular size and suspension in the colloid medium, which Dorland's Medical dictionary describes as "like glue," absorption is inhibited, not enhanced. No less an authority than Dr. Royal Lee the man responsible for pointing out the distinction between whole food vitamins and synthetic vitamins, stated:
"A colloidal mineral is one that has been so altered that it will no longer pass through cell walls or other organic membranes." [2]
Does that sound like easy absorption?
Stedman's Medical Dictionary talks about colloids "resisting sedimentation, diffusion, and filtration " Again, resisting diffusion seems to indicate inhibition of absorption, not increased absorption, wouldn't you say?
As Alexander Schauss and Parris Kidd both explain, colloids are suspensions of minerals in clay and water. [18] Clay often has levels of aluminum as high as 3000 parts per million, with safety levels set at 10 ppm or lower ([21] Kidd). Aluminum has been proven to kill nerve cells, which we now see in Alzheimer's.
Dr. Schauss characterizes the aluminum content as the big problem with colloidal minerals. He cites a standard geology reference text - Dana's Manual of Mineralogy - describing clay as primarily aluminum:
"Clay minerals are essentially hydrous aluminum silicates." - Dana's Manual, p436 [19]
Schauss finds references as high as 4400 PPM of aluminum in colloidal clay. Schauss states that he has done an exhaustive search for any human studies using colloidal minerals and after searching 2000 journals, like everyone else, has come up with zero.
For a mineral to be well absorbed, it must be either in the ionic state, or else chelated, as explained above. The percentage of colloidal minerals which actually does get absorbed has to have been ionized somehow, due to the acidic conditions in the small intestine. Only then is the mineral capable of being taken up by the carrier proteins in the intestinal membrane, as mentioned above. But why create the extra step? Ionic minerals would be superior to colloidal, because they don't have to be dissociated from a suspension medium, which is by definition non-diffusible.
QUALITY CONTROL
Consistency of percentages of each mineral from batch to batch. Very simply, there isn't any with the mega mineral supplements, as the manufacturers will themselves admit. The ancient lakes and glaciers apparently have not been very accommodating when it comes to percent composition. Such a range of variation might be acceptable in, say, grenade tossing or IQ threshold of lawyers, or other areas where high standards of precision are not crucial. But a nutritional supplement that is supposed to enhance health by drinking it? This is an area in which the details of composition should be fairly visible, verifiable, the same every time. In these 80-trace-mineral toddies, there is no way of testing the presence or absence of many of the individual minerals. Many established essential trace minerals do not even have an agreed-upon recommended daily allowance, for two reasons:
- the research has never been done - the amounts are too small to be measured.
TOXICITY AND COMPETITION
Some essential minerals are toxic in excess, but essential in small amounts. Iron, chlorine, sodium, zinc, and copper are in this category. Toxic levels have been established, and resulting pathologies have been identified: we know what diseases are caused by their excesses. How risky is it to take in 40 or 50 minerals for which no toxicity levels have ever been set?
The problem is selective utilization, as explained by Dr. Parris Kidd. [21] Toxic trace minerals may closely resemble the essential minerals in atomic configuration. The result is competition for enzyme sites by two similar minerals only one of which is beneficial:
A separate hoax is being played out with
COLLOIDAL SILVER
hawked by many as a "natural antibiotic." Extremely uninformed physicians recommend daily doses of colloidal silver, in order to "prevent" colds, in the absence of any studies or trials whatsoever. As Dr. Kidd points out:
"...the body is not well-equipped to handle silver. This element can poison the kidneys, become deposited in the brain, and even give to the skin a gunmetal type of gloss." [21]
Silver:
questionable as a single-dose antibiotic, consistent intake of silver accumulates in the blood-forming organs - spleen, liver, and bone marrow, as well as the skin, lungs, and muscles. Serious pathologies have resulted: blood disorders, cirrhosis, pulmonary edema, chronic bronchitis, and a permanent skin condition known as argyria, to name just a few. Silver is better left in the ancient lakes, and in tableware.
A few other minerals you definitely want to avoid, especially in supplements you are taking for health reasons:
Aluminum:
Documented since the article in Lancet 14 Jan 1989 to be associated with Alzheimer's Disease, as well as blocking absorption of essential minerals like calcium, iron, and fluoride.
Gold:
Manufacturers of mega-minerals hawk that "there's more gold in a ton of seawater than there is in a ton of ore." So what? Our blood is not seawater; it evolved from seawater. Gold used to be used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, but has largely been abandoned when they proved that it caused kidney cell destruction, bone marrow suppression, and immune abnormalities.
Lithium:
Used as an antipsychotic medication, lithium definitely can cause blackouts, coma, psychosis, kidney damage, and seizures. Outside of that, it should be fine.
The list goes on and on. These are just a few examples of mineral toxicities about which we have some idea. But for at least half the minerals in the mega toddies, we know nothing at all.
4. CHELATED
Finally we get to the top shelf of mineral supplementation. The fourth form of supplemental minerals is the chelated variety. Some clarification of this term is immediately necessary. Chelated is a general term that describes a certain chemical configuration. When a mineral is bound or stuck to certain carrier molecules, which are known as chelators, or ligands, and a ring-like molecule is the result, we say that a chelate is formed. Chelate is from the Greek word for claw, suggested by the v-shape of the two ligands on each side, with the mineral ion in the center.
Chelation occurs in many situations. Many things can be chelated, including minerals, vitamins, and enzymes. Minerals in food may be bound with organic molecules in a chelated state. Many molecules in the body are chelated in normal metabolic processes. The carrier proteins in the intestinal wall discussed above, whose job it is to transport ionic minerals - these chelate the ions.
Another sense of the word chelation exemplified in a mainstream therapy for removing heavy metals from the blood is called chelation therapy. The toxic metals are bound to a therapeutic amino acid ligand called EDTA. With a Pac-Man action, the metals are thus removed from the blood. (See chapter on Oral Chelation)
Molecular weight is measured in units called daltons. The ligands or binding agents may be very small (800 daltons) or very large (500,000 daltons) resulting in many sizes of chelates. Mineral + ligand = chelate. Generally the largest chelates are the most stable, but also the most difficult to absorb.
Using the word chelated with respect to mineral supplements refers to a very specific type of chelation. The idea is to bind the mineral ion to ligands that will facilitate absorption of the mineral through the intestine into the bloodstream, bypassing the clumsy pathway used for ionic mineral absorption.
After decades of research at Albion Laboratories in Utah, it was learned that small amino acids, especially glycine, are the best ligands for chelating nutrient minerals, for three reasons:
- bypasses the entire process of chelation by the intestine's own carrier proteins - facilitates absorption by an entirely different pathway of intestinal absorption, skipping the intermediate steps which ionic minerals go through - the chelate will be the at the most absorbable molecular weight for intestinal transfer: less than 1500 daltons [9]
It has also been established beyond controversy that certain pairs of amino acids (dipeptides) are the easiest of all chelates to be absorbed, often easier than individual amino acids.
Proteins are made of amino acids. Normal digestion presumably breaks down the proteins to its amino acid building blocks so they can be absorbed. But total breakdown is not always necessary. It has long been known that many nutrient chains of two or three or even more amino acids may be absorbed just as easily as single amino acids. Food-bound copper, vitamin C with hemoglobin molecule, animal protein zinc, are some examples of amino acids chelates that are easily absorbed intact. (Intestinal Absorption of Metal Ions, see COLON chapter). [7]
To take another example, in abnormal digestion it is well known that chains of amino acids - dipeptides, tripeptides, even polypeptide proteins - sometimes become absorbed intact in a pathology known to gastroenterologists as Leaky Gut Syndrome. Obviously it is not healthy and has many adverse consequences, but the point is that amino acids chains are frequently absorbed, for many different reasons.
The reason these dipeptide chelates are absorbed faster than ionic minerals is that the chelated mineral was bonded tightly enough so that it did not dissociate in the acidic small intestine and offer itself for capture by the intestinal membrane's carrier proteins. That whole process was thus avoided. The chelate is absorbed intact. An easier form.
This is a vast oversimplification, and the most concise summary, of why chelated minerals are superior. Only a specific chelate can resist digestion and maintain its integrity as it is absorbed through the gut. Again, all chelates are not created equal. Inferior chelates, used because they are cheaper to produce, include the following:
- carbonates - citrates - oxides - sulfates - chlorides - phosphates
If the label gives one of these chelates, it means the mineral is bound either too strongly or not tightly enough, and will be released at the wrong time and the wrong place. Chelation of minerals in nutrient supplements is a very precise science, yielding chelates even superior to those occurring naturally in foods.
To compare chelated and ionic minerals, once the research is presented, there is really not much of a dispute about which is absorbed faster, ionic minerals or dipeptide-like amino acid chelates. Meticulous isotope testing has shown the following increases in percent absorption of chelates, as compared with ionic:
Iron 490% greater Copper 580% greater Magnesium 410% greater Calcium 421% greater Manganese 340% greater
- source: Journal of Applied Nutrition 22:42 1970 [31]
Again, this is just the briefest glance at the prodigious amount of research comparing ionic with chelated minerals, but the results are uniform. The winner of the bioavailability contest is: chelated minerals, provided the chelate was maintained as small as possible, generally using glycine as the amino acid ligands, at a total weight below 1500 daltons.
OUR OBJECTIVES
With respect to minerals, then, what are our goals? Having once apprehended the necessity for mineral supplementation, our objectives should be simple:
- Take only the minerals we absolutely need- Take the smallest amounts possible- Nothing left over (no metabolic residue)
THE NEW BOTTOM LINE - TOTAL COMPLETE CHELATED MINERALS
What mineral supplement should you buy? The reader now has enough background data to be somewhat discriminating. Obviously the chelated minerals should be the first choice.
For almost 15 years this website has recommended Infinity's Chelated Minerals formulated by the world leader in mineral supplementation - Albion Labs. This remains a fine product. Patients have been consistently happy with results; the minerals have been part of the 60 Day Program from its inception.
In early 2007 I took a careful look and noticed some room for an improved chelated mineral supplement. I wanted a product that would be the best daily mineral product that anyone could take, no matter what age or sex. And I also was going for a 3-capsule daily serving to contain one's complete mineral requirements without the need for any additional mega mineral supplementation, as long as the patient had an adequate diet.
I began collaborating with Albion to come up with a slightly better product. It took the better part of a year but the results have been rewarding. The product is called Total Complete Chelated Minerals and bears thedoctorwithin label.
Is it redundant to say Total Complete? Total is meant to signify that no other mineral supplementation would be necessary - no mega-dosing of single minerals. Complete means that all the essential mineral nutrients are covered, along with an adequate diet - like the New West Diet.
Here are some of the improvements of Total Complete:
We added more chromium, because of today's skyrocketing incidence of diabetes. (See sugar chapter)
We added more calcium to belay any worries about the need for extra calcium supplementation.
We added iodine for thyroid balance.
Potassium is now included for electrolyte balance.
If there is a better designed mineral supplement on the market, it is certainly well hidden. Total Complete simplifies the whole issue of mineral supplementation and reduces it down to 1 serving per day. Next problem.
Are minerals important? Two-time Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling thought so:
"You can trace every sickness, every disease, every ailment to mineral deficiency."
Using the image of Carrel's solutes in the petri dish as the analogue of blood in our bodies, adequate mineral content is undoubtedly a vital component for the body's constant effort to operate all its cells at optimum metabolic vibrancy and resilience.
Healthy people don't get sick. Ever.

Water issues

A few years ago, Governer Gray Davis ordered that all municipal water supplies in the state of California have fluoride/fluorine in their drinking waters. They also, doubled the amount of fluoride PPM at the same time. In a stroke of a pen, any local municipality had their freewill taken from them on the issue, as there were still holdouts in the state. This kind of fascist enforcement of poisoning millions of people with neural killing toxins, which cause a host of other ailments is beyond the pale. Happily, years before that, I switched my family over to distilled water, which gurantees that any foreign contaminents are removed. Ironically, I was talking with a plumber last week about distilled water and he actually said to me, "but you are missing out on all those necessary minerals."

Can you believe that? I just smiled.

First, mineralized water has about a 4% absorption rate in your body. It either throws the rest away or, as in the case of many toxins like fluoride or lead or cadmium, builds them up in the bones, teeth, muscles and brain. These toxins slowly strangle you until you are a walking basket case of varying ailments, permanent headaches, and endless illnesses that allopathic doctors then leap upon so they can make money filling you up with other toxins which just add to the body's misery.

Your body was designed to obtain minerals from plants. This uptake of minerals through plants is a design thing in creation and your body has a whopping 98% absorption rate of minerals obtained this way. Hard, pill based minerals are seen as toxic loads to the body. To deal with this, what needs to be done is to get colloidal based minerals which are leeched and extracted from plants grown that are rich in ALL THE MINERALS, rather than just a few.

Even though we distill our drinking water, we still have to bathe in fluoridated water. And that's a problem, because the largest organ in your body is your skin and it loves to absorb things. The solution then is to get filters on your water supply or have the good fortune to live in a place where you have well-water and can avoid the intentional toxins placed in municipal water supplies.
FYI.

The big lie of why the middle east hates us so very much is because they hate our freedoms. Freedom? In the United States? Really? In the video below you have an 80 year old catholic priest protesting abortion at Notre Dame, which is a chatholic university.

So the police arrest him. Bind him. And strap him down so he cannot move. And they call this freedom?

Still believe the big lies of the politicians and the media?

Think and Research

Think and research

By Don Bradley, May 2009


For me, the greatest classroom is the world around us. We live on an amazing planet, what with all its varying forms of life in the mineral, plant, animal, and human kingdoms. These kingdoms, as many know, are made up of varying elements which then make up these previously mentioned forms of life. We also know that everything is energy, is living, and its all about density, frequency, and sound, which makes the illusory world seem as substantial as it is. And it is substantial, because it has to be in order for there to be interaction between form and spirit.
Many people make claims about this world be simply a construct or an illusion projected by “controllers” who then keep the world slaves. This is a lie. Creation exists as a construct for all levels of souls and paths. Those on the dark side simply understand its workings better than the uninformed population and use it to their advantage. There are a lot of “big names” out there doing the whole matrix illusion thing, but they’ve got it wrong and generally seem to intentionally never speak about the essential constructs of said matrix with any detail; this is so because they are false prophets who want to keep that kind of detail out of the public’s hands.

Fact.

The reason for doing so is because in keeping these realities secret allows them to maintain control over those people who remain unaware and ignorant. If the world is so very much an illusion certain writers tell us about and who claim that if we just believe enough, we can pass our hand through a wall; then show me. Ahh… There’s the rub. The problem with paid shills and liars is that, as in times past, we have to take their word on a thing. Or they rely on hand drawings to illustrate their often fractured perceptions.

For myself, I much prefer the path of demonstrating the thing. Hence, all the photography showing that the earth, water, air, fire, plant, and other aspects of existence is alive. Its one thing to say something is thus and so, it’s quite another to show it to be so. I find it so much more revealing to show actual photographic proof of the dimensional realities I speak about, because then you can see for yourself what is being discussed. Back in February of 2002, when I said that orgone visibly affects the material universe, I demonstrated (for the first time by anyone) ice stalagmites in ice cube trays. There it was, visible for all to see. Taking a person’s word for a thing has always led to the problems we have in the world today: manipulation, control, and enslavement. The time for taking things on faith is past. For look at what a population’s blind faith in their governments has done, just in the 20th century alone. Millions upon millions of dead men, women, and children, all because they blindly believed what they were told without proof and without thinking the thing through.

I myself experienced this same dilemma as I turned to various church and other spiritual organizations seeking a deeper understanding of how things worked and why I was seeing what I was seeing. The more I took things on faith, the less satisfied I became in the results, finding very often that what these groups were teaching to be bald-faced lies. We were given minds to think with. Surrendering your mind to the will of another simply because they say so is an abomination to everything that stands for freedom in our hearts.

Demand proof of the realities around you. Do your own research. Make sure that what you are being told jives with the facts in hand and the facts yet to be discovered. Governments are by and large the biggest propagators of lies and disinformation extant, but there you see the masses, glued to the newspapers and televisions as if every word out of the mouths of newscasters and politicians is the sublime truth.

Wonder Bread Builds Bodies in 12 Ways, was the slogan of the sixties. Then, as people actually started looking into what went into that bread, they found it had empty calories, devoid of nutrition and filled with the worst chemicals and the most denatured and bleached flour ever to see a baker’s oven. We know this because somewhere down the line, someone stopped believing the propaganda and started thinking and checking the facts for themselves. Once it became common knowledge that the only thing wonderful about Wonder Bread was that it gave nothing to anyone’s body but fat cells and clogged colons, then the lies stopped. Someone asked the question and found out the facts. That person sought out proof and saved millions of families from the savagery of lies and foisted upon them by the advertising agencies.

As well should we all, in this time of supreme manipulation by the varying pontiffs and pundits who act like our betters, but are merely stooges and shills for the controllers keeping us in an endless state of slavery.

Demand proof. Research. Think. Reflect. Observe. Do your own thinking. Use the searchlight of your mind and observe everything that comes into your path, being objective about what you see. Open yourself to the experience of knowing and being.

We’ve been told for decades by dentists that mercury amalgams and fluoride were not only safe but good for us. Wow. What a whopper of a lie that turned out to be. The EPA lists both items as unsafe toxins harmful to human and animal health. Both affect the nervous system and the brain, causing a gradual weakening of the cerebral cortex, reduction in the myelin sheath, as well as birth defects and autism, for starters. But because some folks started to actually look into the matter, we now have the facts in hand and are better informed. They did their own research, their own thinking, and the world is all the better for it.

For the above reasons and standards set forth by previous pioneers, I use what is plainly visible in photography and the advertising and symbols of the world to help people understand. That’s why my blogs are filled with pictures of every kind. Its one thing to say a thing is thus and so, it’s something completely different when you can prove it. This is why I use a camera to help explain what is going on around us, so that we can be better informed and then, make better decisions.

And it has cost me plenty to do this. Loss of job, loss of income, loss of home, everything.
Ironic isn’t it? I supplied the first proof that crystals in orgone do as advertised but to this day, I am ostracized by the orgone community. And why? Because I insist on proof before making any kind of public claim or endorsing this or that new contrivance. If it’s not demonstrable, I pass every time until such time that it is demonstrable.

Humanity has been led down the garden path of lies for far too long and that must end now. We must and should demand proof regarding the claims and announcements of our elected and religious leaders. We must pull back the curtain of lies that keeps us in slavery and know what is and what isn’t. For to do any less is to be a slave. A literal slave.

I’m done with slavery. How about you?

End TImes Baloney

Sigh...there is so much junk out there about 2012 and the apocalypse and all that. Preachers blast their congregations with it, it's all over youtube, and the video stores are just full of enormous amounts of misinformation. Here are a couple of things to remember.

First, most of these exposé’s on end times use the bible as their main reference point from which they slide into all non-verifiable noize which scares the dickens out of the weak minded and fearful. Okay, let's use the bible then.

In Matthew chapter 24, Jesus/Yeshua explains varying things which detail the run-up to the mess of the end of this age. But, he also leaves a clear time marker, which it seems every single video producer, writer, and preacher ignores out of hand. He says clear and I quote,
Matt 24:14/15 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations;and then shall the end come. When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoke of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place...

Okay. Here He gives a time marker, the only one in Matthew that is definitive. The abomination of desolation in the holy place as foretold by Daniel and also in Revelations, btw, is when the anti-Christ stands in the 3rd Temple (where the dome of the rock is now in Jerusalem) and proclaims himself the returned Christ. Flat-out, he's saying that the end time tribulations (which you can actually get detail on that by reading revelations) is when to expect the mess the world is calling the end times. Has that happened yet? Of course not.

Let's look at Revelations for a moment, shall we. In it, we find a document that explains, on chronological order, what the world can expect as these things go by. You have the seals, the trumpets, bowels, along with other celestial events interspersed and so on. A simple reading of it quite clearly delineates an orderly sequence of events. Now, we've been inundated for hundreds of years, each generation screaming at the top of their longs that their generation is the end of the world. Especially during world war II.

But wait a moment there. As we proceed through the breaking of the seals, what do we find. That on Seal Six, there is a great worldwide earthquake that levels mountains and moves islands from their places. Wow, that's some event, I think we would all agree. Has it happened yet? Obviously it has not happened in the last two thousand years. An event like that would be a major blow to every land of the world, throwing it back decades and laying waste to well...the whole planet.

Yet, our culture is being hypnotized and programmed to believe that already we are in chapter 18 or 12, or 22 of Revelations or some such nonsense. If anything can be said about revelations, it's quite clearly a chronological roadmap, one foot before the other, one event after the other. However, the dark side is using every lie possible to get people to believe that we are already in varying places all over the place, without ever once mentioning the sequential order of that document. You'd think this obvious reality would be common chat among those end times writers making a fortune on talk shows, with their books, and doing videos. Nope. Not a peep. It's amazing how many preachers, pastors, priests, and the like go on and one about this end times that or whatever, without ever considering or even giving mention to the roadmap. And you can't have it both ways. You can't say on one section its a literal thing, and then change to another page and say its vague. It's either one way or the other.

Because it's all about the fear, friends. Keep you fearful and reactive, and therefore, under their control. As long as you function in a state of fear, you have given over control of your life (both inner and outer) and handed it over to total strangers who look at you with contempt.
The other two devices being deployed as reasons for keeping up the scare are Nostradamus and the Mayan Calendar.

On one hand they have vague quatrains which are so very vague that you have their fear shills out doing the same thing and on the other, you have a calendar that resets at 2012. Okay, so it resets. But what does that have to do with the End Times. They've got their devils out with nice suits and speaking all earnestly about how on 2012, we're all going to die. Right...

And here is the problem. People just believe what they are told, and if they can get enough network sanctioned "scholars" to push home the point, they must be telling the truth, right? Ten people telling you the sky is red doesn't make it so. Do your own thinking. Look past the fear paradigms and see reality for what is really is.

More on this later.

Ice experiments

Pictured below is an ice cube come from a tray of distilled water that has a simple blessing. As a control I made two trays from the same water source, made at the same time. One tray received no blessing, the other did. Now this experiment has been well documented using microscopes, as is well known, and usually blessing by priests. Well, I'm just a regular guy, so gave it a go.

In the unblessed trays the ice cubes did have nice clarity and star formations, like that. In the blessed tray, the ice cubes developed complete faces with energy nimbuses around the head in varying details. Ever single blessed cube had some kind of face or angelic form that was visible.

Sadly, my camera is not of very good quality nor do I have proper lighting to reveal what is easily visible to anyone in the room.

Hatred

By Don Bradley, May 2009



We all know what hate is, how it can fill a person, drive them to mental images of savagery, malice, and cruel acts. It can and often does, drive them to act out the feelings within the bosom of their heart. Once a person decides upon allowing this frequency to overtake their thinking and feeling states, they are often quite capable of doing any and every kind of imaginable harm, very often justified by some ridiculous set of conditions which they believe wholeheartedly, gives them the absolute right to hate and therefore act upon that hatred.

From the instant that hatred takes seat in the heart of any soul it at once freezes their outer aura and creates a literal flint-hard shell which acts as a barrier to any impulse, thought, or feeling that stands above and outside their hatred. This then, becomes a self-serving vicious cycle: the mind and feeling aspects of these lost souls create a self-imposed wall which only allows that information and awareness inside the self of the person which only agrees with the frequency of hate and of course, the object of their hatred. And it grows. And it breeds. It breeds judgment and contempt. And that is the last and final road of hatred which dissolves any spiritual links they could ever have with the divine. We see it all the time in nationalistic/jingoistic mantras of state, in religious orders, and especially, in the membership of the “network,” that unique clique of half-human, half-reptilian/demonically controlled souls who by dint of their very existence live, breath and serve the lower frequencies: fear, lust, anger, hatred, judgment, gluttony, apathy, malice, and so on.

Once this occurs nothing can be done to help them, for their very own anger, hate, self-pity, and malice create thick walls which then will attack any form of help which might be of use in their breaking of the hatred that holds them prisoner. Love for these souls becomes merely an act, a device, which is used like a saber to gain favor, compliance, or control of those around them. For that is how they are controlled, by those above them.

It’s one of the ironies of the situation. Love can set them free, but they cannot feel it, know it truly, or understand its divine workings for as long as contempt and hatred fill the chambers of their heart, they can only know and present the façade or appearance of love. For the façade of love is all they receive themselves. They then believe lust is love; being attentive to please, is love. They believe these things and do them, because that is how they are treated. And in the network, they want two things and that always: more power and more money. And to get this, they must please, obey, and be attentive. If they are “asked” go here and do thus and so, they do it. For refusal means an immediate stoppage on their goal of achieving more power and money.
Hatred then becomes the spiritual currency of the satanic realm. For how else can you get a soldier to shoot a child in the head, or get an individual to murder an innocent person, unless they are filled with hate? How else can you convince a woman to be a “honey-pot” and sleep with total strangers—pretending to love them—so as to gain control of the person and their world? Only hate allows one person to see another and then decide to do these very common things in our time. Only hatred creates those conditions of fear, loathing, and contempt which then enables the person to become capable of any foul deed. Only hatred allows one stranger to setup and then betray someone they’ve never met before.

With hatred, not only are the worst acts possible, but generally are probable, given the state of affairs in the world today. Hatred of one group by another means the group doing the hating will do any conceivable act of destruction toward the group of which they hate. We see it all around us. The wealthy controlling the poor and using them as cannon fodder, taking away their jobs, spraying their skies and water supplies with poison, and injecting them with poisons which turn them into the walking dead.

Hatred does all these things and more. A person who is filled with the darkest frequency of hate—contempt—very often lies, suborns others, and will spread every vile unfounded rumor about any object of their hatred. They will cheat, steal, and murder, if given the chance. They will turn a blind eye to the dark actions of other haters and pretend as if everything is normal.
Contempt is the darkest frequency of hate, for it is of mind. It creates and allows for a judgmental attitude which then squarely sorts all of life into factions, sections, and groups. This one better than that, this person or ideology better than that, and so on down the line until one day, all the world is fighting against all the rest of the world, and usually and quite ironically, with some kind of validation which has been handed them by other haters. Life for many then becomes an endless experience of being hated, seeing hatred, and watching the world burn itself to ashes, all in the name of hate.

The great prophets of the past ages knew this—and especially Christ—which is why they constantly advised anyone who would listen to take hold of themselves, root out any prejudices, judgments, and hatreds first and foremost, within themselves. Until the day comes that we can honestly say to ourselves that hate has left my soul, can we honestly say we are free. For as long as hatred and its various still-born offspring live in our hearts, we are slaves to a world which is controlled by those using hate to keep the poor under the boot of oppression, the world in wars and slaveries of every kind, and the people lost and confused about the deeper meanings and purpose of life.

It’s up to each of us to turn the magnifying glass of our mind and insight upon the domain of our very selves and see honestly how we think, feel, and relate to ourselves and the world around us. Anytime we find those aspects which stand in opposition to the spirit of love within ourselves, we must then “get to work.”

As son Randy pointed out yesterday, “until we conquer hate within ourselves first, we are unable to conquer it in the world.”

Precisely.

Jesse Ventura talks about CIA implanted in State Government

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lIzfXOfpFcA

Ahh...the dollar days

swine flu propaganda and other ops

As with all government and media coordinated blitzes of this type, it's all about testing their system for the real thing. They are measuring public response to the scare, measuring what worked and what didn't work, checking on the fear levels, using sabbats as energy markers (Beltaine in this case), checking to see how much of the aware public is countering their moves, seeing who buys into the fear paradigms, and all that. They test to see how many dead bodies they need to scale up the fear. The less aware a person is, the more likely they are going to buy into this nonsense and be fooled and manipulated.
2000 people die a day from malaria every single day. Ever hear about that in the media? You won't.
If you want to see the real "death" numbers regarding life on earth, check out the actuarial tables used by insurance companies. Once you've read these, everything else falls into perspective. More people die from falling down stairs in a single day than the bird or swine flu will kill in a year. Keep things in perspective, stay cool, and realize you are being played by master black magicians who use every resource at their command to get new legislation created so they can force-feed drugs into your bodies. And they drugs they will give you will actually do the killing...over time.
Stay aware. Stay calm. Stay focused.
