Conclusion

Introduction
Exhilaration,
When was the last time you felt it?
How often do you feel it?
Are you aware of just how much it affects your body and your
life?
Exhilaration releases brain chemicals called Endorphins that
amongst other things also strengthen the Immune System.
Exhilaration also feels fantastic.
Its the ultimate high.
The objective in providing this valuable information is to provide
you with POWER. Power to change your life!
It is to increase your awareness of your possibilities to change
the way you think.
It can also teach you how to use your mind to heal your body, your
emotions and your life.
Just reading this will assist all of that but if you take action and
apply this knowledge on a gradual ongoing basis and re-read this
information regularly, I promise you, your life will improve
dramatically.

Chapter 1
How the Mind Heals
Here is an interesting statistic for you. Incurable terminal diseases
have a spontaneous remission rate of one tenth of one percent. You
cannot name a single disease known to mankind that someone at
some time has not completely recovered from. The truth is that
many people have recovered from every disease. If just one person
recovered from a terminal disease and went into spontaneous
remission that means that you and I know it is possible. So, what
we hope to do here is to share with you some ideas of why that is
true and what you and I can do about raising that percentage.
UCLA, French and Israel researchers have identified three main
types of opiate receptors (delta, mu and kappa). Researchers in
Scotland were the first to identify naturally occurring substances
(Encephalins and Endorphins) as opiates that bind to specific
receptors in the brain. This is an attempt to explain how these
opiates are a product of the mind and how the mind and body
produce them. Examples are given of the effect the mind has on
our bodies. We conclude by giving a philosophical outlook on life
based on the principals here weve discussed.

Physics and the Mind


Physics came to us originally under the name of Newtonian
physics. Newton was a guy who sat under a tree and an apple fell
on his head and he discovered that there was such a thing as the
law of gravity. Most of our scientific endeavours today are based
on Newtonian physics. Newtonian physics means that everything
is made of particles. You can break a substance down into smaller
and smaller particles, but that concept is giving way to a newer
type of physics called Einsteinium Physics. Einsteinium physics
says that everything is not made of particles but rather everything

A snake can see infrared. A snake can identify a living object by


the heat radiating off it. Perhaps you have seen waves, under the
right conditions, coming off the iron when you are ironing clothes
is made up of vibrations. Einsteinium was quick to let us know that
light was a vibration and that everything in the universe vibrates at
a different rate. What we think of as solids is just another vibratory
rate. In fact, we find the whole universe is made up of a substance
called cosmic root substance, and according to what philosophy
you follow you may identify that by your own terminology. We
find everything made of the same substance and at one end of the
spectrum we have matter, a dense substance, as you and I know it.
The definition of matter is something that occupies space and has
weight (or mass). Matter comes in three forms, solids, liquids and
gases.
The difference between these three forms is the temperature. Take
water for example; if you raise the temperature of water it becomes
a gas known as steam. So if you go to the opposite end of the
spectrum of matter you have spirit. What we are saying is that
spirit and matter are made out of the same substance, or you can
say that matter is the most condensed form of spirit. Or you can
say that spirit is the most attenuated form of matter. We go to great
lengths to make all kinds of distinctions about what a substance is.
In reality it is one big master plan made up of the same substances
appearing at different vibratory levels.
Did you know that the only difference between one element and
the other is the number of electrons orbiting the nucleus of an
atom? Actually its more correct to say the number of proteins in
the nucleus of the atom. This is usually the case but its not always
the same. Hydrogen for instance has 1 protein and 1 electron.
Helium has 2. Scientifically this is described as the electro
magnetic spectrum. The electro magnetic spectrum has very large
wavelengths such as sound waves, radio waves, television and
microwaves.

Then we get into the visible light spectrum. On the other end of
this light spectrum we have x-rays, gamma rays and cosmic rays.
As you go up the wavelengths get smaller and smaller. What is
interesting about this electro magnetic spectrum is that only one
percent of it is visible to the human eye. You are only seeing one
percent of that spectrum with the human eye, and that one percent
that we see runs through a range of the colors of the rainbow; red,
orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. If a wavelength gets
longer than red we call it infrared. If a wavelength gets shorter than
violet we call it ultraviolet.
So the human eye just sees in this very narrow range only. Red is
about 700 nanometers, violet is about 350 nanometers. A
nanometer is one billionth of a meter, so if you see 350 billionths
at a time you will see the length of the colour violet. The human
eye therefore sees a very narrow spectrum. If you are not used to
nanometers and are used to light being measured in angstrom units
you add a zero to this; 3500 and 7000. As a result of this we are
missing 99% of what is out there. Everything that you can see
with your physical eyes is limited between these wavelengths.
. Those wavy lines you see coming off the iron are infrared waves.
A snake can see those. A snake cannot see the other end of the
spectrum but it can see that end of the spectrum. A honeybee, on
the other hand can see ultraviolet.
When the flowers are blowing and the aroma is escaping from the
blossoms, they emit an ultra violet light that the bee can see. The
ultraviolet rays that it can see help guide it to the nectar in the
flowers. A honeybee can see that end of the spectrum, but it cannot
see at the other end of the spectrum.

How much of the electro Magnetic Spectrum that we can see is


how much we understand about the world in which we live. There
is much more of the world out there that we are missing.

Chapter 2
Sydney to Melbourne Marathon
How a 61 year old farmer beat the worlds best runners
Several years ago in Australia every single newspaper and every
single magazine was running stories about a man called Cliff
Young. Every year in Australia they have a foot race from Sydney
to Melbourne. This is an internationally, recognized race. It is
about 1000 kilometres long and world-class athletes come from all
around the globe to run and participate in this race every year.
This particular year Cliff Young shows up to run in the race. He
caught the eye of the reporter covering the race, because Cliff
Young was wearing Oshkosh Bib Overalls, galoshes, and he was
61 years old. The reporter asked Cliff what made him think he
could run this race with world-class athletes and how did he train
for this race. Cliff said, Out on the station ranch where he worked
they didnt have any horses and he had to run down the sheep,
goats, pigs, and cows on foot. By running them down on foot is
how he got in shape for this race.
The reporter did not believe him, and when the race started he also
had a funny run. He ran kind of stiff-kneed and did not pick his
knees up very high. It turns out that he was conserving energy
doing this. The world class athletes who come to run this race
every year know that you cannot run 1000 kilometres in one day so
the race takes several days. They know that the human body cannot
run 24 hours a day so their game plan is to run 18, sleep 6, run 18,
sleep 6
Cliff didnt know that because there was probably no television
were he worked and he probably never saw a world-class race.
Cliff was ahead but he definitely was not the fastest man out there,

so when he was in the lead the reporters were really following him
close. When he was getting near the finish line in Melbourne the
reporters said to him, Why dont you stop and rest and time it so
when you cross the finish line it will be on prime TV? Cliff said,
No way. Cliff crossed the finish line at 2 a.m. hardly anyone was
there to see him win the race. The second place winner came in 1
days behind him.
The point of the story is that the other runners had some
preconceived notions about running that Cliff did not have.
Their performance was affected accordingly and Cliffs
performance was affected according to his ideas. The next year
Cliff didnt run and his record was broken. It was broken because
the other runners caught on to some ideas that Cliff pioneered.
What the other runners were guilty of was something called
Premature Cognitive Commitment. They had their minds made up
in advance which limited them, Cliff didnt have that.

Chapter 3
Believing is seeing
There is another true story recorded in the writings of Charles
Darwin. He was doing his explorations of remote portions of the
globe in a sailing ship called the Beagle. He and his men sailed
up to the island of Patagonia, dropped the anchor in the bay and
lowered the lifeboats over the side. The men got in the lifeboats
rowed to the shore where there were some natives who lived there.
These natives had never seen civilization before. They were
friendly and rowed out in their dugout canoes and met the men
rowing the lifeboats.
Charles Darwin made the observation that the natives could not see
the Beagle that was anchored in the bay. They looked out there
and it didnt exist in their eyes. Not until Darwins men took them
on board and explained that it was a big canoe, could they see it.
The point is the reason they couldnt see it was because they didnt
think a thing like that existed. This is another example of
Premature Cognitive Commitment. We edit out everything we
dont think exists.
We are all guilty of doing this. That is, we limit our world that we
see according to what we believe exists. The truth is that we
believe what we see and see what we believe. The saying Seeing
is believing. should be Believing is seeing. We see what we
believe in.
How do you know if there is a person of spirit standing next to you
right now? He doesnt happen to be in his physical body, he is in a
different body. If you dont believe in spirits and think that they
dont exist, you are never going to see that being standing there.
When you get ridiculed enough about your belief system of what

you are seeing eventually you stop believing and seeing, yet
another example of Premature Cognitive Commitment.
Premature Cognitive Commitment is probably the major
factor in the process of ageing. Dr. Leaf from Harvard went
on an expedition to investigate longevity in remote places of
the world. He went to the Himalayas, Hunza Land, Russia,
Georgia, The Andes, South America. He visited and studied
people who were reputed to live for long periods of time in an
attempt to find out what they had in common. Some of them
lived at high altitudes. Some of them drank glacier water. Some
were vegetarians. Some of them also smoked. But they were
not all vegetarians or drank glacier water and it was hard to find
out what they had in common because the locations where they
lived were so vastly different from one another.
The one thing that he did finally find was that these people had in
common was the way that older people were treated in their
communities. They were looked up to, honoured and had a
glamorous lifestyle. The attitude in these communities was that the
older person, the more wisdom and experience they had. They
were looked up to as authorities and full of wisdom and were
treated like royalty. Contrast that treatment, to the way the older
people are treated in other countries, where theyre often put into
nursing homes and their lifestyle is anything but glamorous. What
motive would you have to keep living? That was the common link
that he found among these people that lived to be a grand old
age.
So how can we use that to our advantage? You could pursue a
profession, hobby or interest that as you get older makes you more
valuable to family & society because of the service you can
provide to others. Look at the examples of Nelson Mandela,
Mother Theresa etc. who as they age receive even more
recognition.

Chapter 4
Turning Back the Clock
A Dr. Ellen Langer also from Harvard conducted an experiment in
1985. She put an ad in the newspaper asking for 100 volunteers
who were 70 years of age or older to participate in her experiment..
She easily got her 100 volunteers and they went on a 10 day retreat
out of town to a remote location. Their instructions were to bring
with them clothes and memorabilia from 30 years ago. The retreat
had been prepared ahead of time. There was no television, radio or
telephone these were replaced by newspapers and magazines from
30 years ago. The papers and everything present depicted the
1950s. The instructions were to pretend it was 30 years ago. They
listened to old music, watched Candid America and old movies.
They talked about Elvis Presley, Kruchev and Castro. It was ten
days of pretending it was 30 years ago. Before she took the 100
people out she did numerous biological markers on them. She
measured their height, weight, blood pressure, percentage of body
fat, range of motion; flexibility, handgrip test and she repeated this
at the end of the experiment. She found that in average they had
got 7 years younger in just 10 days. The sad news is that when they
went back to Boston they lost their 7 years. It does not change the
fact of what happened to them in those 10 days.
Now if that is possible, you and I should capitalize on it. Not by
escaping the present but by cultivating the good feelings of the past
by whatever means possible. Whether it be music, movies or
whatever. These are examples of premature cognitive commitment.

Cats Eyes
There was an experiment done with newborn kittens. They were
divided into 2 groups.One group was placed in a room with

nothing, but vertical stripes. The other group of kittens were out
into a room with nothing, but horizontal stripes. They did this
before the kittens had their eyes open. They were raised in these
rooms. After they had grown up they took them out of the rooms
and let them out into the real world.
The group of cats that had been raised in the horizontal striped
room would walk into table legs. Did they not see the table legs?
Did they exist? The other group of cats that were raised in the
vertical striped room would walk into the baseboard. They could
not see things horizontal. These cats were obviously programmed.
The lesson here is, how are you and I programmed? Do you have a
self-image of limitation that you cannot see; an imaginary ceiling
to your limits of achievement? How much of that accounts for our
premature cognitive commitment.

Something Fishy
Another experiment was done with fish in a large fish tank. It had a
plastic transparent partition and the fish on one side could swim up
to the partition and back again. They had fish on the other side of
the tank that could swim up to the partition and swim back. After
the fish had spent a number of days in this tank they took the
partition out so the number of fish would have access to the whole
tank. You know what happened? These fish swam up to where the
partition used to be and swam back. They were programmed that
that was the extent of their area. What is your imaginary
barrier?

Its a Circus
In India they will train an elephant by taking a young elephant and
tying a key large chain around its leg and attaching the chain to a
very large tree. The elephant is unable to get away. As it gets

larger they reduce the chain to a smaller rope. By the time the
elephant is fully grown they can tie the elephant with a tiny rope
about as big as your finger around its leg and tie it around a tiny 3
foot high evergreen and the elephant believes that it is imprisoned
and that he cannot get away. Are you a small or big elephant
chained by small chains?
Zig Ziglar says that to be successful you have to be a good flea
trainer. What he is referring to is that you can put fleas in a jar and
put a lid on top and the fleas would jump up and hit the top. After
they have done that for a few hours then you take the top off the
jar. The fleas could easily escape but they jump as far as they could
before and back down. They are programmed now that that is as
high as they can jump.
The Chicago zoo got a new polar bear. The enclosure was not
ready when the polar bear arrived and they had to place it in a large
cage about 20 feet long. The polar bear would pace back and forth
in this cage.
When the enclosure was finally finished and they put the polar
bear from his cage into the new, fancy natural habitat he paced
back and forth 20 feet. That was the extent of his world. He was
programmed.
I am giving you these examples to show you that this happens to
you and I and we dont even realize it. We get programmed and we
dont even realize it. We get programmed and it affects our lives
and our ageing. There is a seer in India that says the only reason
people get old and die is because they see other people getting old
and dying. They expect that to happen.
We all have to die, but not prematurely.
In our clinic we see examples every week of people who say that
their grandfather got hemorrhoids when he was about 55 years old
and their father got them also at 55 years old. They say that they

will probably get hemorrhoids when they are 55 years old, and you
wonder why they are not disappointed.
We see what we believe.
When you dont see something it is less likely to manifest for you.
If you dont believe in it, it will be also less likely to manifest.

Breaking Barriers
barriers similar to our own. Learn and mix with people who break
barriers. Some of you may remember when the athletic world
thought it was impossible to run a 4-minute mile. Nobody could
run a four-minute mile and break it. The theories were that the
human body was not capable of breaking the four-minute mile.
What happened after that was a whole bunch of people started
running the four-minute mile. It used to be thought that a man
could not run 100 meters in less than 10 seconds. Earlier in 1992
when Carl Lewis did that, six men in the exact same race did it.
When the barrier is broken down and people see that it is possible
and can believe in it, then it happens.
Right now there is a barrier with the 20ft pole vault. People are
only pole-vaulting 19 feet and some inches. No one has ever
broken the 20ft mark. The rumors are among the athletes that it is
not possible. You and I know that someone is going to do that.
Then what is going to happen? Lots of people are going to do it.
What are your barriers?
We can learn from the above by studying and mentoring what
others have done to break

Chapter 5
Creating a New Body
The way we can make this work in our daily lives is to understand
how the human body functions, because if we can understand the
human body and mind we can acquire awesome power. This power
is magical because it literally allows us to create new bodies that
are more perfect, flexible, dynamic, creative, fluent and long
lasting than we ever imagined. To do this, we have to understand
the body and the mind. Unfortunately our traditional knowledge
based on the body and mind are based on some obsolete notions.
We think of the human body as being a frozen sculpture fixed in
space.
So, our approaches are also in the form of magic bullets. People
are always looking for this. The last fix me up and the fast pick me
up. If you cannot go to sleep at night you take a sleeping pill. This
is supposed to cure your insomnia. If you are feeling anxious you
take a tranquilizer. That is supposed to give you tranquility. Now
these aspects do work to some extent, but they are strictly treating
the symptoms. Sometimes they interfere with the mechanisms of
disease. We need to really understand what are the origins of these
imbalances in our bodies that ultimately result in malfunction and
aging and what scientists call Entropy. Entropy means running
down like a spinning top gradually loses its momentum and it will
rollover. The point is that the human body is not a frozen sculpture.
It is a river of energy and information.
The Greek philosopher Hireius said You cannot step into the
same flesh and bones twice, because there is new water running
by. The river you stepped in previously is gone by and now is new
water. In every second of our existence we are creating a new
body. Take breathing for example. With every breath in that you
take it contains 10 to the power of 22 atoms. Thats 10 with 22

zeros after it. That is how many atoms you take into your body
with one breath. These atoms end up as your heart cells, kidney
cells, brain cells, bone cells and DNA.
With each breath that you exhale you are literally breathing out
bits and pieces of your tissues and organs and you are exchanging
them with everyone else on the planet. In fact, radioactive isotope
studies show us that we replace more than 98% of all the atoms in
our bodies in less than one year. It used to be said that we replace
every cell in our bodies except our brain cells. We were supposed
to have the same amount of brain cells our whole life. That was a
rational to explain how you would remember something for more
than 7 years. Now we know that the cells in our bodies are
replacing much faster than we originally thought.
You make new skeleton once every 3 months, a new stomach
lining once every 5 days, new skin once a month. So if you think
that you are your physical body you have a real dilemma. Which
one are you talking about? The 1993 model is not the same model
you had in 1992. It is not even the same body you had 3 months
ago. There is a deeper reality to the body and it comes from the
mind and body.
We need to come from that deeper level of existence, if we want to
capitalize on this and make use of this information. So if we look
at the body from that point of view and we ask the doctor what the
body is made out of he will say muscles, bones and organs. Then
you ask what they are made out of. He will say fats, proteins,
carbohydrates and minerals. Then you will ask what that is made
out of. He will say a nucleus that contains protons, neutrons,
encircled by electrons that are orbiting the nucleus.
When you start breaking the particles down to smaller than
electrons you get into vibrations. You can no longer call it a
particle now, but you have to call it a vibration.

Chapter 6
The Space Within
Here is an interesting point. Imagine an atom in the human body.
There is a proton and neutron in the nucleus and electrons in orbit
around the nucleus. If you enlarge this atom so that the nucleus
was the size of planet earth the electrons just happen to be
proportioned to the size of the moon and the distance the moon is
from the earth. What I am saying to you is that there is a lot of
space between the nucleus and the atom and the electrons. How
many moons could you put in line between Earth and where the
moon is? Bodies are 99.99% empty space.
You may say that it doesnt feel like empty space and that it feels
pretty solid. That is because its measured by something that is
made out of the same substance. If you could measure this physical
body with something etheric, your etheric substance would just
pass right through the atoms. These atoms or electrons emerge
from a field of pure potentiality and pure energy. These particles
that make up our body are fluctuations of energy and information.
They emerge from a void and rebound and collide, disintegrate and
go back into a void.
If you could see the body through the eyes of a physicist you
would see a huge empty void with a few scattered dots and spots
and some random electrical discharges here and there. Then you
may ask, what is the nature of this void? Is it an empty mass of
nothing or is it a fullness of some nonmaterial energy and
information?
Einstein said that if you squeezed all of the empty space from your
body you could put all of the solid material on a head of a pin.

Chapter 7
The Chemistry of Thought
Out of this empty space comes particles and they are not material
objects but fluctuations of energy. In common language we say a
quantum unit of light is a photon. A quantum unit of gravity is a
graviton. A quantum unit of electricity is an electron. What is the
quantum unit of your body; is it a thought? Not just any old
thought or a simple thought, but thought plus emotion or feeling
that leads to action. It is like an instinct, a concept, a desire, an idea
and it may not be verbal. It can be that faint impulse that you
experience all the time in your awareness, that motivates you to
walk from here to there or to walk and get a glass of water. At a
very primordial basic level of thought, it is just an impulse on
information that comes from our own consciousness. So as we are
thinking we are making molecules that are being generated not
only in our mind but also in our whole body. In other words to
think is to practice brain chemistry.
Ciro said that to think is to live. Emerson said that you are what
you think about all day long and the bible says that as a man
thinketh in his heart so is he.
So we used to think that the way the nervous system worked was
that an electrical impulse would follow the Axon or another Axon
or another dendrite or nerve cell. Now we find out that is not true.
When one brain cell wants to communicate with another brain cell
it manufactures a chemical called a neuropeptide. Neuropeptides
have been identified under the microscope. They look like a
projection and they attach themselves to receptor sites of another
cell. The receptor site looks like it can look into the neuropeptide.
When that happens then the message is completed. That is how one
brain cell talks to another brain cell. These receptor sites are coded.

This is not theory, but it is identified under anelectron microscope.


It is interesting that some of the most promising research going on
today in the field of AIDS is that the virus has to lock into a
receptor site to get a foothold in the body. What they are doing is
trying to make an artificial neuropeptide that will fill all of the
AIDS receptor sites so that the AIDS virus would have nowhere to
go. They have done this successfully with other diseases. This is a
brand new concept of how our nervous system works. What is the
origin for the generation of the neuropeptide? The answer is a
thought. This is what causes the brain to secrete the neuropeptide.
That is the whole notion. We are the thinker behind the thought.
We are in control of the process. Even thought we do it
unconsciously. This is not theory. This is a eureka type
discovery in brain physiology.
Careful What You Think and Feel - Your Immune System is
Listening!
If you think that is amazing listen to this. Our immune system is
made up of monocytes, B cells and T cells. A monocyte is about
11 microns in diameter. There are 25 000 microns to an inch. So
you can get an idea of how small 11 microns is. The monocyte was
the first cell that they found receptor sites on other than brain cells.
These receptor sites were identical to the receptor sites of the brain
cells. Do you realize what that means? It means that your
immune system is eavesdropping on your internal dialogue.
You cant have a thought or a feeling or a notion without your
immune system knowing about it. Do you think that will not affect
your immune system? The immune system is eavesdropping on
every single thought that crosses your mind. Even though your
mind is wandering aimlessly, the immune cells know every single
thought you have. The monocyte is the first place they discovered
that. The monocyte has had identified 90 different receptor sites.
The next startling discovery was that the immune system can not

only receive neuropeptides but it can generate its own


neuropeptides. This is proven fact and not theory in the scientific
world.

Your Other Systems Are Communicating Too!


Earnest Holmes told us 40 years ago that our thoughts had this
effect on us. We didnt have the scientific explanation behind it
like we do today. So these immune cells are listening to our
conversation that we are having every single second of the day.
Now if that is not startling enough, the next discovery was that
they found these receptor sites in other organs of the body. They
were found in the liver, kidneys and intestines. They were also
secreting neuropeptides. So, in other words we have a thinking
body. If that is true that helps explain why visual imagery works.
At the Carl Symington institute in Forth Worth Texas they have a
good success rate with terminal patients going into remission using
visualization methods. Neuropeptides helps to explain why this
works. So when you say that you have a gut feeling about
something you are speaking literally not metaphorically. Your gut
cells might be a little more accurate than your brain cells because
your gut cells have not yet evolved to the stage of self-doubt.
When we say we have a sad heart or it is bursting with joy you are
speaking literally. That is whats happening at the chemical level.
It is the most fundamental level of the cell.

Where is your mind located?


The mind is not confined to the brain. The brain is not the mind.
The mind is in the whole body and is everywhere. It doesnt matter
that the brain cells get replaced every year. You can still remember
longer than a year because that is not where the mind is.

The mind not only permeates our body but the mind extends out
beyond the body. My personal belief is at that our mind is at the
very centre of who we really are!
The mind is in every cell of our body. If we have an experience of
tranquility whatever the cause of it might be; thats when your
body makes valium just like the one Hoffman Laroche makes
except theres no side effects. It doesnt make you feel like a
zombie. When you feel anxious the body makes Kittery molecules
that are not just from the adrenal glands, theyre everywhere in
your body.
Now it turns out when you feel exhilarated whatever the reason
for the exhilaration may be your body makes very powerful
immune modulators. In fact, there are anti-cancer drugs known as
interlucons and interferon and theyre very expensive. A full
course of interlucons may cost you something like forty thousand
dollars just for one injection. But if you go to the space mountain
at Disneyland you can manufacture yourself millions of dollars of
interlucons provided that that is an exhilarating experience for you.
Now, if Space Mountain at Disneyland is a horrifying experience
for you then your body will make bad chemicals for you.

Chapter 8
Exhilaration - Oh What a Feeling!
They now have proven that the feeling of exhilaration is what
makes our bodies produce the immune modulators. This increases
our immunity unbelievably, but you must understand that what
may be exhilarating to you, may not be the same thing thats
exhilarating to me and vice versa.
I can still recall the morning after feeling from the previous
nights activities whenever I just really had fun especially if
mixing with youth. At first I couldnt figure out why I felt so good.
Then I saw the pattern. It explains why some like to do dare devil
things. They call it adrenal rush.
Now I realize that for some of you propelling down the side of a
mountain on a rope may not be an exhilarating experience at all,
but the point is that whatever it is in your life that does exhilarate
you, that is what you need to do. Thats how youre going to get
healthy, that is how you are going to stay healthy. The body can
manufacture these chemicals. This is just one method we have of
making it manufacture the chemicals we want it to manufacture.
Norman Cousins, the author of the book Anatomy of an Illness
calls the brain the magic Apothecary. Apothecary is a Greek word
that means drug store. To date they have identified over fifty
different neurotransmitters that the brain can manufacture from
scratch.
These are chemicals that are not normally circulating in your
bloodstream but the brain can manufacture it on its own on
demand. One of them is a painkiller that is fifty times more
powerful than morphine. Youve heard about soldiers on the

battlefields. A soldier gets his arms blown off yet keeps going as if
he is in no pain; he doesnt even know his arm is missing and the
other soldiers have to come and get him and lay him down trying
to stop the loss of blood because the man is in no pain. How is this
possible? Put simply, its because the body can produce these
immune modulators under those conditions of stresses that are
encountered on the battlefield.
There is a story about a man who is driving his brand new car
down the highway and another car sideswiped him going the
opposite direction. It ripped off the left side of his brand new car
including his left arm,when the police arrived on the scene of the
accident the man in shock was sitting behind the steering wheel
saying Oh my poor car, oh my poor car. The police said, Oh
your poor car, how about your poor left arm? The guy looks down
and sees his left arm is missing, he says, Oh my Rolex, oh my
Rolex. Thats not true, but the battlefield story is true.

The Bodys Drug Store


We have a complete pharmacy that is absolutely exquisite and it
makes everything. It makes tranquilizers, sleeping pills, anti-cancer
drugs, immune modulators and antibiotics. You name it the body
can make it. In the right dose, at the precise time, at the right
target, no side effects and all instructions are contained in the
packet. The brain is capable of doing this on demand. The brain is
a magic Apothecary. Have you ever wondered how people existed
and survived before there were drug stores? How did our ancestors
survive the saber tooth tigers? What if they got an infection in their
foot, how did they survive?
Scientifically we are told that if the brain is the drugstore, the
hypothalamus is the druggist. Medically we used to think we were
pretty smart and we could trace the patients symptoms back to the

ovaries or we could trace the symptoms back to the adrenal glands.


Then we got really smart, we were able to trace it back to the
pituitary gland, which also tells the other glands what to do.
Sometimes we could trace it back to the pineal gland, which can
also influence the other glands.
Today we can trace it all back to the Hypothalamus. The
Hypothalamus is what controls the pituitary gland and the pineal
gland. Those glands are the ones responsible for activating the
Crown Chakra and the Brow Chakra. We never used to have a test
for the Hypothalamus and nowadays we have a test for the
Hypothalamus. Dr Mike Allen made this discovery. He actually
had a patient who had cold feet and he couldnt figure out why the
feet were cold. In desperation he breathed on the feet to create a
breeze and found that the muscles went weak.
This lead to the discovery that the type of sensation called light
sensation is carried up the spinal cord by a track called the
spinalthalmic track, which goes to the Hypothalamus.
Neurologically thats already been figured out in neurological
anatomy. When they figured out what they were triggering during
the light sensation they traced it back to the Hypothalamus. The
point is that any light sensation like if I just barely touch the hairs
on a patients arm it does the same thing to them. This wont
weaken everyone it will only weaken a person who has a
Hypothalamus problem. The good news is that this can be fixed by
a nutritional supplement usually green powder like spirulina or
barley grass.
It is estimated that the average person thinks about 60,000 thoughts
per day. What is a little disconcerting is that about 95% of those
thoughts are the same as the previous day. This means that you
keep creating the same energy patterns over and over again.

Chapter 9
Never Judge a Book By Its Cover
There was a Judge White Sides that made a brilliant discovery. He
discovered that people who came in front of his bench who were
charged with similar crimes had similar facial features. The
conclusion of his many years of observation was the study called
personology. Personology says that everybody today 40 years or older
is completely responsible for what they look like. We are constantly
expressing externally what our body is feeling internally. For
example; if youre skeptical your nose will turn down. If youre
gullible long enough your nose will turn up. We are creating our own
bodies. The trick is to be neither skeptical nor to be gullible and to
have a straight nose. You cannot prevent your thoughts affecting the
way you look.
They found out that people who are predominately positive have a
larger right nostril and people who are predominately negative have a
larger left nostril. If you have a larger right nostril dont be so quick to
pat yourself on the back because we really need a balance. We dont
have right and left nostrils accidentally and people say, Well youd
look funny if you only had one! Well you wouldnt look funny if
God made everyone have one nostril. The point is the right nostril
takes in positive ions and the left nostril takes in negative ions. That is
by design and not accidental. If you witness this process that is going
on and become conscious of it then you realize that you have choices
here.
You can do wonderful things with this. You can invoke healing
response from within yourself. You could restructure your perception
of time, which would completely restructure the physical expression
of the body. You could retard the ageing process. A persons body is
nothing but an expression of all the ideas that you have about the
body.

The Face of Change


There was a movie, The Three Faces of Eve, based on a true story of a
woman who had multiple personalities. Well, at that time it was a
Eureka type discovery that this women had 3 distinct different
personalities.. Today scientists have identified up to as many as 17
different personalities within the same body. When you have
somebody that has 17 different distinct personalities (and this has
been proven), one personality may have diabetes. If you draw blood
from the patient at the time this personality is present the test for
diabetes will prove true on this blood sample. Five minutes later there
is a different personality present and you draw a second blood sample.
Guess what? The blood sugar is completely normal. This is how fast a
person can control the physical body. This is a fact.
If you have ideas that your body is a physical machine that is
supposed to age in such and such a way; that it gets imbalanced from
the environmental stresses and changes, then as we saw earlier it will
translate into chemical changes in the body. The body that we
experience normally is all our ideas of our body. All the ideas that we
have had manifested in this point in time. That is what our bodies
represent. According to the latest discoveries in science if those ideas
are changed then the whole body will change, A change in the
conceptual notion of that will spontaneously cause physical
transformation in the physical body. A mutation in consciousness
would cause a mutation in biology. You dont have to brainwash that
concept. Owning it is the prerequisite to make the changes come
about. Take conscious control of it and dont let 95% of your thoughts
today be the same thoughts that you had yesterday.

Chapter 10
The Challenge
If this is so true and simple why is it a problem? The reason it is a
problem is that we believe that our senses are the crucial test of
reality. This is where we are hung up,we think our senses speak the
truth to us but they dont. For example, my senses tell me that railroad
tracks come together but I dont believe that. My senses tell me that
the earth is stationary but I know that it is going through space at
millions of miles per hour. In fact it is mostly quantum fluctuations of
empty space.
This is not an emptiness of nothing. It is a fullness of non-material. If
we can get in touch with that intelligence you will have a completely
new reality of the body. Also a complete new experience with life.
You begin to experience it as more fluid, more dynamic, more
creative, and more changing. In fact you are changing your physical
body more effortlessly, more rapidly, and more efficiently than you
can change your clothes.
An extension of the consciousness will make the most unreal
abstraction become a concrete reality. That means that ideas that were
previously vague and abstract to us become real to us when we
expand our consciousness. Have you ever had the experience of
reading a book for the second time and feeling inspired, because of a
certain passage in there? It comes out and hits you in the face but the
same passage was in there 10 years ago. Ten years ago it didnt rush
in on your consciousness because you werent ready. This time when
you read the book you were ready for it.
In philosophy we say when the student is ready the teacher will
appear. We never need want for the teacher.
We never need to worry of being held back for lack of a teacher. So
our goal is to first understand the real nature of the body as it really is.

That in itself is really exciting. The intellectual understanding alone


will cause a transformation.
We dont always need to have all of the affirmations. There is nothing
wrong with affirmations, but they do not always work. Refer to my
website www.empoweryou.com.au for a free report on how to
reprogram the mind and/or read my two books The Lord of the
Genes and Biocybernetics. The condition of our body is the result
of our consciousness. The condition of the earth is the result of human
consciousness. So we can do something about that. We can change
our consciousness so that the earth changes. We are one human
family tied so closely together that anyone of us can do something to
uplift ourselves that would also uplift the entire human family.
Anyone of us could do something degrading that would hold down
the entire human family. We are that closely tied together.

Chapter 11
Whats Love Got To Do With It?
In 1980 scientists at the Ohio State University were doing a study on
the effect of high cholesterol on rabbits. They were feeding them a
high cholesterol diet. To the amazement there was one group of
rabbits that was not getting the high cholesterol and hardening of the
arteries. If they could figure out why that was true they may discover
something new.
So, they started checking temperature, humidity, daylight,
darkness, direction of the cage, gravitational fields, magnetic
fields and they finally stumbled onto the answer. The technician
whose job it was to feed the rabbits in that particular cage just so
happened to be a rabbit lover. He would take the rabbits out of
the cage and he would pet and hold them. He would kiss them, sing
to them and give them the food. This caused the rabbit to secrete
certain peptides in their brain cells so that they could shunt the
cholesterol into different metabolic pathways and wouldnt get the
high cholesterol.
The moral of this story is if someone accuses you of being amorous,
just say that you are trying to lower his or her cholesterol! This is an
important study because heart disease kills more people in people in
our society than anything else. Heart disease kills more that the
second and third diseases put together.
Another experiment was done at the University of Miami with a
group of premature infants. They divided these infants into 2 groups:
a control group and an experimental group. In the experimental group
an investigator would come over and reach out through a hole in the
crib and he would stroke the baby 3 times per day for about 10
minutes at a time. These babies gained an average of 49% more
weight per day while they were given the same formula as the control
group. This led the investigators to conclude that this stimulation was

a cost effective strategy because it saved $3000 per admission since


the babies could go home 5 days earlier.

Keep Your Heart Happy


In Massachusetts the Health Education Welfare Department did a
study. This time they were looking for the risk factors for heart
disease. The fact is that over 50% of the people who have heart
attacks have none of the following risk factors: smoking, high
blood pressure, diabetes and overweight. Fifty per cent of the time
the first symptom of heart disease is death. The person drops over
dead from a heart attack and did not know that he had heart disease
because he did not know that he had any of the risk factors. So, what
is the cause of the heart attacks?
In the study they found out that there were two factors: Job
dissatisfaction and self-happiness rating. Now you ask the questions
are you happy and do you love your job? If you truthfully answer yes
to both questions of the factors you are probably not going to have a
heart attack. An astonishing fact is that more people die on
Monday Morning in our society than any other day. Supposedly
no other species know the difference between Mondays and
Tuesdays. What is the difference? The difference is the idea. It is the
thought. How we interpret Monday. How we interpret time, space and
physical reality.
So, I would like to summarize our ideas about the quantum
mechanical body. The particles give us the experience of matter
through our senses but they are really fluctuations. Your body is
99.99% empty space. Empty space is really not empty. It is a reservoir
of non-material intelligence and information that is ultimately
responsible for the material expression of both the body and the mind.
Scientists call this body by different names. They call it the Unified
Field or the Morphogenic Field and the essential point to grasp here
that the real you is not just material, the real you is not just subject to
the laws of matter, which is in the sphere of time, space and
causation.

Your basic consciousness, which conceives and governs your actions


becomes the mind and the body. At first this may sound very strange
and abstract but as you bear with this notion and understand you
realize the most dramatic discovery. We are not physical machines
that learn how to think. We are thoughts that learn how to create
physical machines. Youre impulses of intelligence that have learned
how to create both the mind and body. This is not our true home here.
We are just here temporarily as if we are attending school here. The
conditions here are very crude compared to our true home. We think
we have modern convenience with dishwashers and garbage
disposals.
The truth of the matter is living here in the physical world is like
camping out in the rough compared to our true homes where we come
from.
Remember 99.99% of what we are is invisible so dont be so quick to
judge your neighbour. Remember you only see 1% of them. You
might like the other 99%. The ancestor to every action is a thought.
Wayne Dyer tells us a beautiful story of a man who dropped his key
in the house.
He cant find it because there are no lights in the house. The
electricity is off, so he goes out in the street under the street light,
which is on, and he starts looking for the key under the street light. A
friend of his comes by and sees him out there on his hands and knees
looking on the ground and the friend says, What are you doing? The
man says, I am looking for my key. The friend says, Ill help you.
The friend gets down on his hands and knees and starts helping look
for the key. They cant find the key. The friend says Where did you
drop your key? The man says I dropped it in the house.
He says, What are you doing out here. This Guy says, Well theres
no light in the house and theres light out here. You see how stupid
that sounds.

You and I are guilty of the same thing, if were looking out there; we
think the guru is out there. Its not, its in here. The lights are in here
and the answers are in here. We have to turn within. We are guilty of
looking out there under the streetlight. Thats not where the key is
because the key is in here! The river of life runs between the banks of
pain and pleasure. Dont get stuck in either bank; pain or
pleasure,keep flowing down the centre of the river. Did you ever
notice that when your life is inspired about something that is when
youre lifes working? When you are inspired about something that is
when your life is working in many ways. If you are not inspired then
you see all the negative things in life. When you are inspired that is
when you create endorphins from exhilaration. Get inspired about
something. Have a dream. Make a contribution to life. Serve others in
a great cause. Be less selfish.
Unfortunately science progresses by funerals. Ideas change very
slowly in the sciences. Usually when the old guys die off the new
guys get to express their ideas. Lets you and I not be guilty of that,
lets not let our lives progress by funerals. You and I can catch on
quicker than that. When we realize the world is round we cant choose
sides anymore. Choosing sides is not the answer. Putting one group
against another group is not the answer.

Conclusion
As we reach the end of this book there are some qualifications that I
would like to add.
We have discussed a number of laws that govern the body and mind.
Applying them will make a huge difference in your life and in the
lives of those in your life. However there are many laws including so
called spiritual or values laws. The more laws we know, understand
and apply, the greater will be the results of the law you are living.
That is helpful feedback to keep us searching, finding and applying
new discoveries that we make. To help you understand and apply
what you have just learned; and to keep on learning we recommend
the Biocybernetics Life Empowerment Course, the other information
and optional coaching we provide.
So what are you going to do next?
What actions are you prepared to take to really improve your life?
You can start by listening more carefully to your inner
communication- your conscience.
You can also manage your thoughts and feeling more efficiently.
You can control what you read, watch and do.
You can study more of the right information.
