The Beam of white Energy of
the Highest Order, of Balance, which is clearly seen on top of phony
pink holographic tail. Our Centre, 24 March 2010. Now I am sure that the Holographic
Pink colored Beam (tail) is a fake to be superimposed and used to cover up the Moving and
Pulsating narrow White Beam of Balance (Advanced Energy of 11th Density) to cover
the movement of it to the Sun (or to the Ball of Advanced Human Thoughts) and from the Sun (or the Ball) into the Earth! The
aim of these phony pentagons is to also cover the Pulsating Fast Movement of
this Balanced Energy from 11th Density into the Earth, which fasten the vibration of
the Earth and everyone on it! The most important is not the wide Pink strip on the picture, but the Moving and
Pulsating narrow White Beam of Advanced Energy, which I've personally seen a few times !!!
Every
day when I wake up I don't know what Earth I would be in today: one of
the Parallel Earths or the Original one. Even while walking our dogs in
the morning or late afternoon, I noticed that I often change
dimensions/Parallel Earths, I see new people, who sometimes,
phase/dissociate and they, like my son, would start changing and
jittering, appearing and disappearing. This is the picture of
Invisible to the eye Energy of our Advanced Thoughts, of Energy of the
New Earth, of Energy of the New Sun and of Energy of the Consciousness
of the New Universe! And you can't separate all these Energies, because
they are so well mixed up and this process is still going on!
The picture is taken by me through the Portal in Fabric of Time in our
Centre with digital camera (with no lenses or filters) from our balcony
facing the back yard in Feb. 2010. I've taken quite a few of them just
in case without seeing anything unusual (just a blue sky). I do that
almost every day and always harvest at least one interesting picture.
And I am not going to stop, so I decided to post at least a few of them
on all 80 links (because I've got about 100 of them now and it will be
more).

Who needs a Space Shuttle? Amazing pictures of Earth captured by one man, a balloon and his compact camera
MOST
amateur photographers content themselves with pictures of local
wildlife or their families – but some amazing pictures of the Earth had
experts from Nasa scratching their heads. They were taken by an amateur using the most basic of equipment – a standard camera and some duct tape.
Robert
Harrison, 38, used his ingenuity and a collection of cheap parts
costing just £500 to take the spectacular shots using a Canon camera
which he launched to 35km – more than 20 miles – above the planet's
surface on a weather balloon. The astounding views can usually only be seen from a rocket or a weather balloon because no aircraft can fly to that height.
The 38-year-old IT director has launched 12 high altitude balloons
since taking up his hobby in October 2008 – and before that he says he
had never even picked up so much as a soldering iron.
It all started when Mr Harrison, of Highburton, Huddersfield, tried to
take aerial photos of his house using a remote control helicopter,
which turned out to be a non-starter.
But he refused to give up and researched on the internet the idea of
using a meteorological balloon like the ones used by weather centres.
he found reports of a Canadian man who had been taking high altitude
pictures using weather balloons.
He launched his first, named Icarus I, in October 2008 and it was an
amazing success, taking such stunning shots of more than 1,000 miles of
the Earth's surface that the American space agency Nasa got in touch.
"Nasa
had heard what was happening and wanted to know how I'd done it so
cheaply," he said. "People think this is something that costs millions
but it doesn't. You just need a bit of technical know-how. I
know nothing about electronics and what I do know, I learned from the
internet. My family and friends thought I was a bit mad a first but
they were suitably impressed with the results. "The pictures speak for themselves, they put everything into perspective.''
His
wife Helen, a 45-year-old web consultant, thought he had lost touch
with reality when he told her of his intentions, but their children
Faye, nine, Charlie, six, and Jack, two, have backed him from the start.
To control the path taken by the balloon he used a standard GPS
tracking device, similar to an average in-car satnav and linked it to a
radio transmitter, which allowed him to monitor the balloon's height to
within 10 metres and made it easy to find once returned to earth.
He
linked his standard digital camera to computer software on the ground
and wrapped both the camera and the GPS device in loft insulation from
a local DIY store. The entire contraption weighs just 1kg (2.2lb).
The heat produced from these devices, together with the insulation,
which costs just £3 a sheet, helps keep it functioning.
The balloon rises through the atmosphere and the higher it goes the
more the air pressure decreases, causing the balloon to expand, until
it parachutes back down to earth.
Mr Harrison is one of just 40 people in the world and four in the UK
using such equipment for fun, has spent £4,000 in total on sending his
low-tech balloons into space.
Luckily he has got each one back although sometimes he has to travel up
to 50 miles to retrieve his equipment and he can only send it off when
weather conditions are ideal.
"We got satisfactory results with the first launch but it nearly landed
in the sea, which would have been game over. We were sat in a local pub
at the time and I was gobsmacked when I got the images."
He
is now designing his third module, Icarus III, which has a rotating
lens camera and a rear fixed-lens camera, together with pressure,
temperature and humidity sensors
The unearthly beauty of this image taken high above the planet would make Nasa proud. But it didn't need millions of pounds of technology to capture. Just a little British ingenuity that saw a standard digital camera taped to a helium balloon and floated into the sky.
Ingenious: Robert Harrison with his creation, a camera enclosed in a polystyrene box. He
used GPS tracking technology similar to an in-car sat-nav to follow its
progress - and an attached radio transmitter to find it when it
parachutes back to earth. The photos taken by his device were so spectacular that Nasa has been in touch to see how he achieved it.
Mr
Harrison's budget of £500 might also offer inspiration to the new UK
Space Agency, which launches on April 1. Based in Swindon, with only
one astronaut and a budget one 50th the size of Nasa's, it will be
looking for cut-price ways to reach for the sky.
Mr Harrison first got the idea to explore space after a failed attempt
to take aerial pictures of his house using a remote control helicopter.
After
investigating high-altitude weather balloons on the internet, he
launched his first mini spacecraft, named Icarus I, in October 2008. It
took dramatic shots that spanned 1,000 miles of the Earth's surface,
showing the curvature-of the earth. He has since sent a dozen capsules
into space.
'My
family and friends thought I was a bit mad at first but they were
suitably impressed with the results,' said the married father of three
from Highburton, West Yorkshire. 'The pictures speak for themselves.
Before launch, the camera is attached to a tiny computer programmed to trigger a photo every five minutes.
It is wrapped in loft insulation bought from a DIY store then placed in a polystyrene box.
When
the balloon reaches the 22-mile-high mark it pops because the air
pressure is too weak to keep the helium inside. As the box falls a
mini-parachute automatically opens. Mr Harrison has recovered it from
up to 50 miles away.
Space
enthusiast Robert Harrison managed to send his home-made contraption 22
miles - or 116,160 feet - above the earth's surface from his back
garden.
Brit Conquers Space - With Helium Balloon
In the upper centre there is a semi-transparent holographic planet. Could it be the New Earth,
the Holographic structure of it? I see it on many pictures.
A
space enthusiast has taken spectacular images of the Earth's surface
from space - using a standard digital camera taped to a helium balloon.
Robert
Harrison has been able to send his £500 device 22 miles above the
earth's surface - a height that can only be reached by a rocket or
weather balloon.
Over
the last two years, the IT director from Highburton in West Yorkshire
has launched 12 high-altitude balloons with a simple Canon camera
attached.
Mr Harrison stumbled on the idea when he tried to take aerial photographs of his house using a remote control helicopter.
When
his experiment failed, he started to look into high-altitude weather
balloons on the internet, launching his first device - Icarus I - in
2008
He
programmed the camera, using free software downloaded from the
internet, to take eight photos and a video every five minutes before
switching into standby mode.
Mr
Harrison, 38, uses GPS tracking technology to monitor the camera as it
automatically parachutes back to earth after reaching the 22-mile high
mark.
The
pictures are so impressive that Nasa has reportedly been in touch,
telling the father-of-three it would have spent millions to get the
same results.
"A guy phoned up who worked for Nasa who was interested in how we took the pictures," Mr Harrison told The Times newspaper.
"He wanted to know how the hell we did it. He thought we used a rocket. They said it would have cost them millions of dollars."

A
man from Yorkshire in the UK has taken amazing pictures from above the
earth, using a camera bought for GBP 50 ($A81) on eBay.
Using low cost materials, Robert Harrison has captured images that have even caught the attention of NASA.
'They saw the pictures on the internet,' Mr Harrison said.
'It
wasn't really so much phoning on behalf of NASA, just that they had
some interest in 'How did you take these pictures?'. Sort of, 'If we
had to take these pictures it would cost lots of money.'
'I think once they understood how we'd done it, it's not technically space.
'Space starts 100 kilometres above the Earth's surface but 35 kilometres is a good start.'
His initial experiment used a point and shoot camera encased in loft insulation and strapped to a simple balloon.
Mr Harrison is now getting more high tech with hobby, using high altitude balloons and GPS tracking devices

The
Higher Consciousness of Human +
Here
are some extracts from the book called "Catapult: The
Biography
of Robert Monroe" by Bayard Stockton, written in 1989, before the
Universal Shift in 1994. This book is now available in electronic form
The materials presented are on the subject of how we all got to Earth
to become a human, p.16-17:
Monroe: "Let's take
and say an
entity gets a whiff (a feeling) of the Here action. He tastes it,
smells it. It's discordant, but it's attractive. He thinks, 'Looks
pretty good. Let's take a shot, see what it is like.' So he goes to the
entry station and applies to be Human.
"The Entry Director -
that's Ed -
says there's a long waiting list for the choice locations. But Africa,
or India, you can get there right away.
"He tells you, 'Of
course, there are
some conditions. One is to be disconnected from your true identity.
Second, you've got to accept Time-Space as real: that is earthly
planetyou're entering does exist in the Twentieth Century."
"You take what you can
get, and
suddenly a 14-year-old girl in a Harlem tenement gives birth. The baby
feels, hears, smells." Bob Monroe's voice drops to a barely audible
whisper:
"Now, you are on stage.
You
come back for periodic check-ins and to get proper alignment."
But, he continues, your
entity's commuting between Consciousness Here and There is not
necessarily chronological.
"You can go back in
time to pick up special knowledge; for instance, maybe you need to look at the Crusades. Or at the
Creation."
Then "Why do we become
human?"
"Noone forces you to
return to Earth. It's your own decision. Maybe it is simple curiosity.
"Or,
there's
the Remittance Man approach: You're being 'paid' to flee from another
energy system, and dive into Here, use the Earth as a refuge."
(Remittance Man is a person living abroad on funds sent from home,
especially in former times.
You can find some confirmation of this set up in the books of Dolores
Cannon, when her clients, usually One-Timers, reported that they have
been forced to volonteer to come to Earth and have one or in some cases more than one life
on Earth and that is happening on negatively as well as positivly
charged planets, LM).
I scribble "Nightmares?" in my
notes.
There
are
those who become addicted to the Human Experience. "They're the Human
Junkies. They get locked in to what they have Here: The worldly lures
of material acquisition and power. They find it impossible to yield
their attachment to earthly totems. They choose to recycle, to come
back again and again, to get more, even more.
At
some point, however, even the predators begin to see that property and
the pursuit of power don't provide the answers they need. They start to
adjust their styles, to drop their addictions to the "appurtenances"
(appendages) of physical life. Eventually, they become more selective
in their recycles. Then they may even choose to wait a thousand of our
years for another entry... There are the missionaries who come to
change it all, but get hooked on the physical. Rescuers who get trapped
helping their buddies. Best of all, there's the Graduate. What makes
one? Massive Growth. Divining (locating) the purpose of the physical
world. This Earth is an Experience System, a Compressed Learning
machine. It's the Learning School. It creates stress, crisis, conflicts
which teach us cause and effect, polarities, comparatives. You would be
bored by physical serenity. If you have a short interval between lives,
you are addicted heavily. If you take a long interval, you're getting
selective, and maybe you go into service There. Service to Humankind is
a fine goal, but there are others. For instance, there might be other
intelligent life Here. We might know, if we knew how to communicate
better non-verbally."

Just
Make a
Leap (Russia). Russians are jumping from one multistoried building to
another one.
The
second
capital city of Russia, Saint-Petersburg, can boast of beauty of its
architecture. But its off-beat design is not the only thing the city
can show. Also it has a great diversity of different subcultures with
lots of followers. And recently two guys from one of city’s
traceur movements decided to take their chances and make the use of
their city’s architecture It was really a crazy
thing, a
jump from one building to another. The point is that the buildings were
the same height. A leap from nine story building to a five story one
without any breakfall. The distance between two roofs was 11 high (~35
feet) and just 7 meters (~22 feet) long, though it’s kinda
spooky
to talk like that about 20 feet length of a space.
Just
try to
imagine how does it feel to stand at the edge of a roof staring first
at the other roof and then again at the ground, in and out, in and out.
After all you are eventually fixing it up, getting a few steps
off… Getting run and the same thought rattling in your head
all
the time – the main thing is not to catch the roof edge up.
And
the second later you are flying already and comfy mats waiting for you
at the other roof along with your friends. Well, nothing venture,
nothing have.
As
you can see by
photos, the second jump was also a success. They say that the two guys
were inspired by the similar roof-to-roof jump of traceur sport founder
in Paris. People can fly, approved."

Schools on 4th Density
This info is from Michael
Talbot's
"The Holographic Universe", p.273-274:
"For instance, both Moody and Ring
have reported cases in which NDEers said that the buildings of higher
learning they visited were not just devoted to knowledge, but were
literally built out of knowledge. This curious choice of words suggests
that perhaps visits to these edifices are actually encounters with
something so beyond human conception—perhaps a dynamic living cloud of
pure knowledge, or what information becomes, as Pert puts it, after it
has been transformed into another realm—that translating it into a
hologram of a building or library is the only way the human mind can
process it. The same is true of the beings one encounters in the
subtler dimensions. We can never know from their appearance alone what
they really are. For example, George Russell, a well-known
turn-of-thecentury Irish seer and an extraordinarily talented OBEer,
encountered many "beings of light" during what he called his journeys
into the "inner world. " When asked once during an interview to
describe what these beings looked like he stated: "The first of these I
saw I remember very clearly, and the manner of its appearance: there
was at first a dazzle of light, and then I saw that this came from the
heart of a tall figure with a body apparently shaped out of
half-transparent or opalescent air, and throughout the body ran a
radiant, electrical fire, to which the heart seemed the centre. Around
the head of this being and through its waving luminous hair, which was
blown all about the body like living strands of gold, there appeared
flaming wing-like auras. From the being itself light seemed to stream
outwards in every direction; and the effect left on me after the vision
was one of extraordinary lightness, joyousness, or ecstasy.
Intriguingly, I have met several other individuals, usually people with
more than normal psychic ability, who have also had these dreams (one,
a talented Texas clairvoyant named Jim Gordon, was so baffled by the
experience that he often asked his nonplussed mother why he had to go
to school twice, once during the day with all the other children, and
once at night while he slept). It is relevant to mention here that
Monroe and numerous other OBE researchers believe that flying dreams
are actually just poorly remembered OBEs, making me wonder if perhaps
some of us, at least, are visiting these incorporeal schools even while
we are alive. If anyone reading this book has also had such
experiences, I would be very interested in hearing about
them."Throughout my high-school and college years I had vivid and
frequent dreams that I was attending classes on spiritual subjects at a
strangely beautiful university in some sublime and otherworldly place.
These were not anxiety dreams about going to school, but incredibly
pleasant flying dreams in which I floated weightlessly to lectures on
the human energy field and reincarnation. During these dreams I
sometimes encountered people I had known in this life but who had died,
and even people who identified themselves as souls about to be reborn.
274
On
the other hand, Monroe asserts that once he has been in the presence of
one of these nonphysical entities for a while, it discards its
appearance and he perceives nothing, although he continues to sense
"the radiation that is the entity."

Bayard
Stockton about Human+
There are
a lot of materials on this website if you look through all the links,
which show how many unbelievable tests humans had on this planet to
become Future Human Plus and to be ready for Universal Shifts of
Consciousness, which happened in 23rd of March 1994 and this kind of
event takes place once in roughly 100 thousands of years.
"Catapult:
The Biography of Robert A.Monroe" was written in 1989 by Bayard
Stockton, a close friend of R. Monroe and his family. Bayard was one of
his students into the exploration of the Unknown. He participated in a
few workshops at The Monroe Institute. There is an interesting
information about Future Humans+ written by Bayard, which I find very
appropriate for this link, p.224-226, though the same things might not
be as good as they were then:
Human
Plus (H+)
Not a bad idea to learn it at the time of global bushfires,
LM.
"In
the late 1980s, there appeared to be a sudden, spontaneous surge in
Western metaphysical circles aimed at expanding Man's (and Woman's too, LM)
ability to accomplish extraodinary tasks. Do-it-yourself workshops
proliferated. One program billed itself as "The Mind Revolution: Three
Steps to Personal Power"... Turn fear into power by walking across
burning coals-barefoot."
http://www.telegraphindia.com/1070506/asp/7days/story_7739746.asp
A prominent channeled entity offered a series of excursions
around the world, which would place participants in
situations of
considerable challenge or even danger, to show that a mortal can
discard fear by calling on hitherto unknown resources. The Institute of
Neotic Sciences sponsored research into and a quest for people with
exceptional abilities.
Bob Monroe was aware of all these efforts when he introduced a new
program which tries to show people how they can dramatically improve
their personal performance in areas which have heretofore (before) been
closed to them.
"H+" is the name Bob has given to his newest learning system.
It
stands for "Human Plus", and is a trademark. Monroe's friends thought
Bob was going senile when he started to concentrate on H+. It seems to
them he was trying to "inculcate superhuman traits" in otherwise, well,
normal citizens. Bob describes his new course officially in these
terms: "A System of Planned Evolution...The difference between what can
(and cannot) be achieved as our belief about what is possible.
Know how is
the problem - a a belief isn't a Known until you understand how to make
it Known...
"H+"- Plus is a different kind of pathway to new levels of freedom. You
can become more than you ever could be - one step at a time. The
process builds on three wellknown concepts:
"A) Any human function that has been performed more than twice is
learnable, without
exception.
The more a function is performed by separate individuals, the easier
the learning becomes, not only for the participant, but for
others...
"B) The greatest resistance to significant change is inertia. It is
nearly impossible to move an entire mountain in one massive step.
However, if the one-shovelful-at-a-time process is employed , the major
goal is achieved.
"C) Revolution
often produces chaos and requires a long period of adjustment and
adaptation. Evolution
absorbs change in an orderly manner with a minimum of stress. Planned evolution
can place the entire process under personal control and direction.
H+
achieves a
planned evolution at the individual level, using taped "Function
Exercises". H+ seeks to free the individual govern his/her own life by
imprinting a series of techniques in his mind, to be called upon as the
need arises.
By early 1989, the available tapes included exercises on various types
of sleep; programming dreams; public speaking; de-habituation;
reduction of pain; synchronizing mind-body coordination; instant but
short-term increase in strength; caloric-intake control; body
insulation from heat or cold; improved circulation; increased energy;
optimizing potential; contemplation (consideration, expectation);
programming a day; speeding-up thought processes; memory recall; body
de-toxification; improvement of individual senses; betterment of the
immunity system; letting go; dealing with physical energencies;
numeracy improvement; maintenance and improvement of heart, brain and
lung functions; "wings on your feet" for joggers; empathizing; body
healing.
Monroe says, "We run the software, then we leave the rest to you." The
H+ tapes are different from Gateway and Guideline exercises. Human Plus
uses a new "Access Channel"which Monroe has named Focus 11. The concept
is not original with him, but the tools are definately Monroe.
Anyone can do an H+ function: one side of the tape cassette is
preeparatory exercise, which opens Focus 11and redies the listener to
have the function imprinted in his/her brain. The second side actually
implants the function and teaches the learner how to implement it
instantaneously when needed. The whole procedure is literally
childishly simple, and devoid of mystical imput. Some functions are
"designed to be turned on or off as needed or desired." Others are
permanently in place, for example an exercise to improve vision or
circulation.
To call up the function, the H+ initiate simply holds his/her
breath, repeats the frase she/he has learned and expels the breath.
"There is a crossover point. The autonomic system functions
automatically, as in breathing or eye-blinking. Holding the breath
accentuates the autonomic. The
H+ encording reaches down to the "reptilian" in the human psyche.
"Another thing we are learning is that effecting change in one system
or another may have side effects in the same system you didn't bargain
for. The more precise the instruction, the better."
There are and can be many more functions, which Bob frankly admits he
is unaware of, as yet; just as there can be many more fields of
application than the Institute has yet come across.
H+ is a new and growing program which depends to great extent on the
resourcefulness of its participants. By the end of 1988, there were
about 50 exercises in the library H+ tapes. Seven intensive H+
workshops were planned for 1989. The program was also expanded to
include two-day workshops away from the Center in Virginia, and an
"In-Home Training Series" of two four-cassette albums.
Bob Monroe had the first inklings of his newest course probably in the
early-to-mid-1970s: wisps of visions, tantalizing teasers. He codified
the images with the shortlived learning-enhancement series of tapes
used at Ford Benjamin Harrison.
After the media got hold of the story and blew it sky high, Bob recalls
with merriment that some reporter dug up a Huston psychologist to say,
obligingly, "What! Silly little sound waves can't do anything."
It just happened that H+ made its debut in the autumn of 1987, about
the same time that the various other human-expansion programs were
getting into gear, with considerably more publicity. The program had
been in active development for about 5 years.
Monroe reflected on his new baby shortly before the first course, when
talking to the Professional Seminar:"H+ takes the pragmatic approach.
It's not going to hurt you . It's a recognizable bridge. It gives the
participant self-activated evidence."
Bob likened the beginning of H+to the introduction of pneumatic
couplings between railroad cars:once they were hitched
together
with buffered space between them, it was a lot easier to get the cars
in the train rolling. He could just as easily have drawn an anology to
Rupert Sheldrake's morphogenic resonance.
H+ is designed for all, not just for people who have attended other
Monroe cources. Even after it started, there was no charity at the
Institute about how H+ would be implemented or made available. The
general intent is that the program will ripple out to the population
slowly, mostly by word of mouth, and primarily anonymously, for good
reason.
"What do people need most? Modification of their belief system. Suppose
you could obviate or control the physical needs of your body? We knew
they could be changed, using Biofeedback. H+ is a learning process
which provides control of Self from within. H+ bypasses the environment
to achieve 'normal functioning'. It's freedom from usual needs of Man
(and Woman too, LM),
learned at all levels of consciousness."
By August, 1987, he was saying, "It's the Quiet, Knowing Way. A
Concept of Service. Basically, we're taking away the enculturated
prohibitions. It is designed to endure for one's lifetime. You could
call it a formulation of resonance. Gateway brings intense knowledge of
Self, but doesn't pay much attention to the daily needs of the
individual. It gets the Ego under good control. H+ asks: "What would I
really like to do?" It's a crib sheet, that's all. It's not to be taken
at one huge bite. But in little pieces. It's sort of sneaky: It gives
you control of your options. In developing H+, we looked again at
Hemi-Sync. We don't know how it works, of course. But we want to
separate individuals from their habituation. First from their physical
needs. Secondly, from their emotional needs- their mental
inculturation. Avoiding temptations, not evading them. If one can
control one's physical , mental, and emotional self, there can be an
amazing transformation. We looked around and found that the main
obstacle was inertia. The more awesome the concept, the mopre humans
tend to procrastinate. Call it laziness if you will. Becoming more than
you ever thought you could be, improvement in every part of life. We
need prudence (be sensible) in its use." Awareness of possible
antagonism from the establishments was a frequent sub-theme in early
days of H+. It's open-ended. What is needed is you. What you can see as
fundamental applications. Critical mass in H+ will be achieved when an
individual no longer needs anything."
There are no criteria for participating in H+. "Everyone is ready for
it. It is not a
sequential learning process.
You select what you want to learn. Our Belief System is constantly
being attacked by advertising. That's nothing new. We are modifying the
Belief System (just
till the end of this Planetary Game, LM), just as the
advertisers do."
Such was my introduction to H+: An amalgam of references, dotted
throughout previous Monroe sessions.

Woman conquers 14 tallest peaks
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/OddSpot/2010/04/28/Woman_conquers_14_tallest_peaks_456146.html

South
Korean media have applauded one of the country's climbers after she
claimed to have become the first woman to scale the world's 14 highest
peaks. Ignoring controversy surrounding her bid, all major newspapers
on Wednesday ran a front page photo of Oh Eun-Sun holding a national
flag at the snow-covered summit of the 8091m Annapurna in Nepal. But
Oh's claim to be the first female climber to have conquered all the
world's mountains over 8000m is under scrutiny. Last week her 2009
ascent of Mount Kanchenjunga on the Nepal-Tibet border was thrown into
doubt when a leading authority on Himalayan mountaineering sai fellow
climbers had expressed scepticism about that climb. In South Korea,
there were no such reservations. 'Your successful ascent (of all the
eight-thousanders) was a process of human victory that underscores the
meaning of challenge,' President Lee Myung-Bak told in a congratulatory
message late on Tuesday. 'You are really admirable,' Lee said, adding
the successful ascent brought the spirit of challenge back not only to
alpinists but to all South Koreans. The best-selling Chosun Ilbo
newspaper said Oh's feat 'proudly shows the spirit of Korean climbers
and Korean women's courage, patience and strength'. Its headline read
in part: 'Iron lady 154cm tall becomes a 'giant' over 8000m'. Other
papers carried pages of similar coverage, with little or no mention of
the dispute about the 44-year-old's record. Mountaineering expert
Elizabeth Hawley said in Kathmandu that Oh's ascent of Kanchenjunga
would be considered 'disputed'. She said fellow mountaineers, including
Oh's chief rival for the record Edurne Pasaban, had questioned whether
she actually made it to the top. 'I'll be waiting to meet her when she
gets back to hear her version of what she has to say about
Kanchenjunga,' Hawley told AFP on Tuesday after hearing of Oh's ascent
of Annapurna. Pasaban, 36, conquered Annapurna earlier this month,
becoming the first Spanish woman ever to do so and leaving her with
just one more mountain to scale. Pasaban is on her way to Tibet, where
she will attempt to climb Shisha Pangma -- the smallest of the 14 peaks
at 8,027 metres. Pasaban said she still doubts that Oh reached the top
of Kanchenjunga. 'It is a doubt which we already had last year, because
when she climbed Kanchenjunga we were already there and we climbed it
after her. Our doubts emerged when she presented some photos, and other
climbers shared them,' she told public radio from Shisha Pangma. The
picture provided by Oh shows her standing on a bare rock but those
taken by Pasaban's team shows them standing on snow. 'The confirmation
came this year while at the base camp at Annapurna when I met with the
Sherpas who climbed with her and they confirmed that they did not reach
the peak of Kanchenjunga,' said Pasaban. 'When she returns to Kathmandu
she will have to prove it, she will be questioned and we will see what
happens.' Oh has previously dismissed the doubts as groundless. 'I can
say that I have stood at the summit of Mount Kanchenjunga,' she told a
press conference in Seoul late last year. 'It was bad weather. Three
sherpas told me that I reached the top and one of them took the
picture.' Just 18 people have previously made it to the top of the 14
eight-thousanders, which are all in Asia's Himalaya and Karakoram
ranges, since Italian climber Reinhold Messner became the first person
to do achieve the feat in 1986.
Granny cracks marathon record
63 years old woman, grandmother running a marathon, England, 2010
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/OddSpot/2010/05/03/Granny_cracks_marathon_record_457593.html
A triumphant grandmother has ran into the record books after completing 27 consecutive fund-raising marathons.
Rosie Swale Pope MBE, 63, ran the final step in her gruelling 707 mile odyssey to rapturous cheering from a crowd of supporters.
Crossing
the finish line in Tudor Square, in her home town of Tenby, in west
Wales, she said she was 'tired but very very happy'.
The fund-raising phenomenon had originally intended finishing in Llanelli, where she completed her 26th consecutive marathon.
But
in an effort to thank a legion of supporters across the UK for their
backing she ran an extra marathon by way of a traditional lap of honour.
'It
was fantastic. I crossed the finish line in Tudor Square, in Tenby, and
it was like a dream,' said a jubilant Mrs Swale Pope.
She added: 'I think the main thing is to show people that they should reach out to do what they want to do.
'Maybe you can't always get there but you should always reach out.
'Although I am actually 63 doing something like this makes me feel as though I am really 36.'
Her punishing 27-day schedule took her everywhere from Bristol to London and from Tunbridge Wells to Bury St Edmunds.
She finished up in Tenby close to one month after she had started out on her exhausting trek on Easter Monday.
Since then the pensioner has powered her way across the UK pulling Icebird, the trusty cart in which she sleeps, along the way.
Each run has covered a pre-planned course to ensure it is exactly the 26 miles and 385 yards necessary to be deemed a marathon.
Cash raised from along the way will be donated to the Ty Hafan children's hospice in Cardiff and Helen Douglas House in Oxford.
Once her exploit has been officially confirmed she will be hailed as the first woman ever to run so many consecutive marathons.

City2Surf bigger than other
marathons (Sydney, Australia, 2009)
Sydney Marathon 2009 (75000 people)
Sunday, August 09, 2009 » 08:00am
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/TopStories/2009/08/09/City2Surf_bigger_than_other_marathons_360545.html
A record 75,000 starters are gathering for Sydney's 39th City2Surf race
this morning.
They'll be sent on their way at 9am by two celebrity starters: Lord
Mayor Clover Moore and Olympian swimmer Eamon Sullivan.
Four-times City2Surf winner Andrew Lloyd will be there, along with
retired running legend Heather Turland and her 21-year-old son Cade.
Anyone waking up with flu-like symptoms is urged to give the
14-kilometre race to Bondi a miss while motorists are warned of road
closures from the city to the beach.
The event is now even bigger than the London and New York marathons
combined.

Active Denial
System ('Heatwave')
'HEATWAVE' or ADS?
Modern Australian, Russian, English, American
Soldiers
and Firemen
From
reading about microwave" Active Denial System " ( ADS) is not
difficult to make a connection to forests/city fires in modern/ancient
times and all kinds of fires at all wars and at the time of "Peace",
since Atlantis. This technology has been also used from the underground
and from planes/drones a lot. Fires are engulfing the whole world.
More
than 400 "bush" fires were reported by the weather people in Siberia
and Far East last April alone ( with + 27C), which is hard to reach
without the use of ADS in cold places like Siberia in spring.
Australia
is famous for "bush fires/heat waves" and "flooding/strong winds" and
that's about all natural/technology made disasters you'll find
in
Australia.
It seems like a favorite destination of you know who,
especially Pine Gap. And now is the same in Florida, China, California,
Greece. Almost every "natural disaster" is accompanied by "fire",
sometimes " bush" fires in the snow.
Human spontaneous combustion
could happen when a person is sitting in a chair and leave nothing else
burned except the living body. What do you think is used?
Microwave ovens
have been used for years to cook the insides of a chicken faster than a
conventional oven. Active Denial System tends to
be used more in
summer (no surprise), which is what Southern Hemishpere experiencing
now. Maybe "Global warming" is an excuse for ADS (microwave) attacks?
When I lived in Victoria,
I personally found that the best way to get through ADS
attacks ("heat
wave") is to wrap a wet cotton sheet around the body inc. head or to
wear wet clothes even in bed/couch overnight (preferably no telephone/
computer/tv
use at the time of the attack). I used icy water from the fridge for
the sheets/clothes and showers and survived at +45C for a couple of
weeks without airconditioner. Here are some extracts from websites on
Mind blasting Active Denial System:
"...
Often " Active Denial System" is used on large
masses of people
(whole cities or Targeted Persons )...driving
millions people crazy";
"the
imbalance occurs, a fundamental change in a
person's psyche, he loses
self-control and becomes easily led.. either from Earth or
from a
command centre lost in space .
"What it does: " ...It produces
enourmous pain by allegedly boiling the molecules
of water in the
human skin from sudden
heating of the skin without damaging the
skin itself. "A shortage of breath and panic could
occur!"
About ADS:
"...directed-energy weapon ...directs ,or pulses ...at frequency of 95
GHz" .
Today on 6th of February 2009 the temperature is from +40C to +48C in
most of Australia.

Bushfire victims had no hope - inquiry
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/TopStories/2009/04/21/Bushfire_victims_had_no_hope_-_inquiry_324050.html
Tuesday, April 21, 2009 » 07:51am
"The fires struck with unimaginable 'atomic force', burning at about
100,000 kilowatts per metre on a day that smashed fire index records,
Monday's hearing was told. More than 2,000 homes were lost and 173
people killed in Australia's worst peacetime disaster."

'ADF
(Australian Defence Force) should help fight fires'
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/VictorianBushfires/2009/02/11/ADF_should_help_fight_fires_301929.html
Wednesday, February 11, 2009 » 12:49pm
Australia's defence force should be trained in fighting fires to help
prevent a repeat of the Victorian bushfire tragedy, an academic says.
Dan Baschiera, from Charles Darwin University (CDU) in the Northern
Territory, said climate change had ensured fires would become an
increasing threat in Australia.
And he says defence personnel should be equipped to better protect
communities, following Australia's worst peace-time disaster.
He suggests the defence force (ADF) be able to rapidly convert military
aircraft into water-tankers and to have access to more up to date
technology that is currently being used in other countries.
'This is a terrible tragedy and we must look at ways to try to prevent
it in the future,' said the coordinator of CDU's Bachelor of
Humanitarian and Community Studies.
'Our bush lands and environments are going to accelerate in further
unknown ways and face more volatile challenges.'
Dr Baschiera said global warming was moving from rhetoric to disastrous
reality', as seen in the Victorian bushfires that have so far killed
181 people.
'Firestorms of 100 kilometres per hour plus were unbelievable once, but
are now a reality,' he said.
The federal government should look at training the Australian Defence
Force (ADF) to help fight bushfires, Dr Baschiera said.
'Processes need to be in place for the ADF to rapidly convert and
deploy military aircraft into water-tankers with site-specific
airstrips located to refill and refuel at a very efficient rate,' he
said.
Technological advances in other countries - such as in the US where
unpiloted aerial vehicles are used to monitor high-risk areas - should
be adapted and used in Australia.
'The ADF should acquire these aircraft and have them 'in training' over
the fire zones at the critical times of the year,' Dr Baschiera said.
'Linked to rapid response, these aircraft could bring in the water
bombers and lock on to the suspect vehicles of potential arsonists as
an immediate military support to civilian police.
'We need to utilise all the tools at our disposal."

The Toughest Race Around
Spanish woman climbs Annapurna
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/TopStories/2010/04/18/Spanish_woman_climbs_Annapurna_452400.html
Spanish
climber Edurne Pasaban has scaled one of the deadliest Himalayan peaks,
Annapurna, leaving her with just one more mountain to climb to become
the first woman to scale
the world's 14 highest peaks.
Pasaban,
36, reached the top of the 8,091-metre mountain along with several
other Spanish climbers at around 2pm (1900 AEST) on Saturday, a
spokesman for her team told AFP.
She
now has just the 8,027-metre Shisha Pangma to scale in her bid to be
the first female to reach the summit of every mountain over 8,000
metres.
But her chief rival, South Korea's Oh Eun-Sun, is also on the slopes of Annapurna, which would be her 14th and last summit.
Annapurna
is particularly dangerous because it is both technically difficult and
avalanche-prone, and it has a much higher death rate than Everest, the
world's highest peak.
Pasaban
had been defeated by Annapurna once before, in 2007 when she and her
team turned back about 1,000 metres from the summit in bad weather.
She will travel to Tibet to attempt to scale Shisha Pangma 'over the coming days', her spokesman said.
A
third contender, Austria's Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner, is to begin her
ascent of Mount Everest, the world's highest mountain, next week.
But
she would still have to climb K2, the world's second highest peak
situated on the Pakistan-China border and regarded as the most
difficult and dangerous of the 14 'eight-thousanders', in order to
claim the record.
Italy's Reinhold Messner became the first man to climb all 14 summits in 1986.
The 14 mountains are all located in the Himalayan and Karakoram ranges in Asia.

Man soars above Italian Alps
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/World/2010/04/01/Man_soars_above_Italian_Alps_446650.html
A British daredevil who broke his back in a base jumping accident a year ago has made a spectacular comeback.
After surviving the horrific crash, James Boole has soared above the Italian Alps wearing nothing but a flying suit.
But last year in Russia, James' parachute failed to open properly and he fell 1,828 metres at 161kmh.
Landing in powdery snow saved his life - but he broke his back, cracked a rib, bruised a lung and chipped his teeth.
He had to wear a body brace for three months as part of his recovery.
You would have thought the ordeal had put him off base jumping - but the 32-year-old seems to relish the adventure.
'We fly for about a mile across the ground, opening our parachutes at
around 500 to 600ft (152 to 182 metres) and landing in a grass landing
area near the main road,' he said.
'The speeds that we do are about 161 kilometres an hour horizontally and about 64 kilometres an hour vertically.'
In his first jump since the accident his family were understandably a
little unsure about him descending from the the top of the 1,219m Monte
Trento peak in Alto Adige, Italy.
This time, he cheered when the parachute opened successfully and he
landed safely - much to the relief of his friends and family waiting on
the ground.

First Arctic balloon crossing made
1st Arctic Baloon explorer
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/OddSpot/2010/04/11/First_Arctic_balloon_crossing_made_449938.html
A French explorer's team says he has made the first Arctic crossing by
balloon, landing in the tundra of eastern Siberia five days after
taking off in Norway.
Jean-Louis Etienne traveled 3,130km in his special balloon, sailing over the Arctic Circle.
The 63-year-old radioed his team after landing on Saturday, expressing
relief 'because there were difficult moments and I was starting to lose
sleep'. The landing had been set for Alaska, but Etienne had to change
course after a snowstorm on Wednesday near the North Pole hindered the
recharging of batteries via solar panels.
Etienne measured the atmosphere for C02 during his trip and did other tests.
In 1986, the explorer became the first person to reach the North Pole alone.

Rower Quincey close to New Zealand
Australian Shaun Quincey is rowing from Australia to Tasmania !

Rower Shaun Quincey is nearing the end of his epic 2200km journey across the Tasman.
Quincey was only 30km from New Zealand's 90 Mile Beach at 7am (0500
AEDT) on Sunday morning, and ground crews were heading up to the
northern end of the beach where he's expected to land.
Quincey, who set off from NSW on January 20 in his 7.3-metre boat
Tasman Trespasser, has rolled at least twice, broken two oars and come
close to running out of fresh water.
Ground crew members say there's concern about how difficult it may be
for Quincey to navigate the breakers and safely land his boat on the
sand, and there's a chance he may swim ashore.
Quincey, 25, would be the second person to row the Tasman solo -
following in the footsteps of his father, Colin, who rowed across in 63
days in 1977.

Weightlifter has surprise
birth in gym
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/OddSpot/2009/12/16/Weightlifter_has_surprise_birth_in_gym_406738.html
A Chilean Olympic weightlifter unexpectedly gave birth to a baby boy
while she was training in a Brazilian gym, reports said.
Elizabeth Poblete, 22, did not know she was pregnant, and called for a
doctor when she felt unwell a week ago while hoisting weights in the
gym in Sao Paulo, where she lives, the news website Globo.com reported
on Tuesday.
She then gave premature birth to the baby, who was doing well and whom
she named Eric Jose after she got over her shock. Both mother and son
were taken to hospital.
The head weight trainer in the gym, Horacio Reis, said: 'It was a
surprise for me. A week ago I acted as a judge in a competition in
Chile and this girl was competing. All went well and she won the
competition.
'I could see she was a big girl, round and strong. That's all I
noticed.'
Doctors calculated Poblete must have been six months pregnant. The
training and diet observed by female weightlifters can cause irregular
menstruation.
Poblete competed for her country in the Beijing Olympics last year. She
had been seeking to beef up her body to move from the 75-kilo category
to 85 kilos over the past few months.

Thursday,

It's
billed as one of the toughest races on earth where competitors are even
asked to sign a 'death warrant' before taking part.
The
Tough Guy race is a unique sporting adventure.
It is
a test of both mental and physical endurance based on an assault course
of obstacles following a cross-country run.
The
phenomena of Tough Guy has developed over many years and has now
evolved a cult status with an international audience where competitors
from around the world come to South Staffordshire in the UK to try to
beat the course and enjoy the great spirit of the event.
For
many it's on the list of things to do before you die.
But
before the competitors can even start the race, they have to sign their
own 'death warrant' which is a disclaimer that reads. 'It's my own
bloody fault for being here.'
Following
an eight-mile (12.9km) cross-country run, starting in the village of
Old Perton in the English Midlands, competitors then faced a horrific
two-mile, with 25 obstacles, assault course designed by EX-Grenadier
Guard Billy Wilson in 1986.
The
task involves men and women wading through energy-sapping mud and
plunging into ice cold water to reach their goal. As if this wasn't bad
enough, they also had to negotiate flames, smoke bombs and taunting
marshals.
The
assault course (or as it is known 'the Killing fields') are capable of
grievous bodily harm. The entrants face 30 foot obstacles, underground
crawls through muddy wet tunnels, walking on slippery muddy planks
across fire pits called the Fiery Holes, chest deep in water with
marshals goading competitors and letting smoke bombs off.
The
irony for the competitors is that the further back in the field you
are, the tougher the course becomes; the obstacles become more slippery
and due to the sheer numbers some have to queue in the cold conditions
waiting their turn to proceed.
As
always, the emergency services were kept busy dealing with serious
cases of hypothermia, exhaustion and bruised egos.
In
the end Ben Price won the race in just over one hour and 18 minutes to
become the 23rd winner of the event.
For a
few, the real glory comes in finishing in the top dozen runners but for
most, the achievement of beating the course is enough. There is no
prize money for the winner or runners up, only bragging rights at work
the next day.
All
money raised from the event goes towards a horse and donkey charity
based in the local area."

In
Finland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark,
Lithuania and Latvia the ice swimming tradition has been connected with
the sauna tradition. Unlike dousing, it is not seen as an ascetic or
religious ritual, but a way to cool off rapidly after staying in a
sauna and as a stress relief.
Ice
swimming on its own is especially
popular in Finland. There is an Avantouinti Society (avantouinti is
Finnish for ice-swimming), and swimming holes are also maintained by
other groups such as the Finnish skiing association. The Finnish Sauna
Society maintains an avanto hole for sauna goers.
There are lots of places where
you
can swim without sauna in Finland during winter. Helsinki has several
places for avantouinti, with dressing-rooms and sometimes with saunas.
Tampere area has a number of ice swimming and winter sauna locations.
Russia
There are strong traditions for ice swimming and dousing with cold
water in Russia. They are done for health benefits, for sports. Such
club members are called "walruses" (моржи) instead of "polar bears".
North America
The members of Canadian and American "polar bear clubs" go outdoor
bathing or swimming in the middle of winter. In some areas it is
unusual or ceremonial enough to attract press coverage. "Polar Plunges"
or "Polar Bear Plunges" are conducted as fund-raisers for charity,
notably the Special Olympics. Cosmo Kramer briefly joins a New York
polar bears club.
The oldest ice swimming club in the United States is the L Street
Brownies of South Boston, Massachusetts, who hold their annual polar
plunge on New Year's Day.
China
In Harbin, northern China, many ice swim in the Songhua River. It has
grown in popularity since late 1940 as a winter ritual and now as an
estimated 200,000 registered swimmers. The river hole is estimated to
be 25m by 10m.
Ice-swimming

Maintaining
the hole in the ice
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_swimming
One
way that the hole is maintained
in the frozen sea is with a pump that forces the water to circulate
under the hole preventing ice from forming. Small ice-holes can also be
kept open by keeping a lid over the hole to prevent ice forming.
Most
swimming places also use a
specific heated "carpet" going from the locker rooms to the ice-hole,
both to make walking to the hole more pleasant and for safety as
otherwise the water dripping from returning swimmers would freeze and
create a dangerously slippery surface to walk on.

56-year-old Jennifer Figge pressed her toes into the Caribbean sand,
exhilarated and exhausted as she touched land this week for the first
time in almost a month. Reaching a beach in Trinidad, she became the
first woman on record to swim across the Atlantic Ocean --a dream she'd
had since the early 1960s, when a stormy trans-Atlantic flight got her
thinking she could don a life vest and swim the rest of the way if
needed.
The 56-year-old left the Cape Verde Islands off Africa's western coast
on Jan. 12, battling waves of up to 30 feet (9 meters) and strong
winds. She had originally planned to swim the Bahamas, but inclement
weather forced her to veer 1,000 miles (1,610 kms) off course to
Trinidad.

Robert
Monroe' Thoughts about Future Humans
This
is a very interesting information concerning what R. Monroe called
Future Humans , H+ (human+). It
means humans of the 4th/5th Densities, supermen and superwomen. There
was a program and tapes
developed in TMI
(The Monroe Institute), devoted to this subject. If
you start thinking logically, you can't really expect humans to stay
the same, with the same abilities in 4th/5th Density like they
were in 3rd Density. We are evolving and pressures are higher, our
abilities are growing and again: no pain no gain !
R.Monroe
described "Renovated Super-Human School of Compressed
Learning"
in his book. Some important points are presented below.
The
Goals of this School for training H+ humans are described in "Far
Journeys"p. 216-219:
"...we make and gather . . .
what did
PROMISED
PLAN you call it? .
. loosh.
Like honeybees. Or Guernsey cows. Only now we
know what
we’re
doing and why, and we’re happy to do it...
It (food
chain process) is an
important part of the learning process. We
couldn’t make Loosh
without it.
...(Experience
Earth Consciousness. Not just in
physical human form—remember we could only feel part of it,
just
a part? Now we go through it completely, from the smallest unicellular
life up, millions of different life cycles, most of which we were
unaware of as only physical humans. Even the physical earth itself has
an active consciousness.)..."
Some important extracts about Human-Graduates :
(So
humans do graduate from
here, the dorm (the Sleeper's class). Question: What happens to
the graduates?)
(I . . .
I don't have a percept of that. They just click out.)
(One at a time or as a group?)
(Usually
several at once. Every so often, one goes alone.)
(And they never return?)
(No. They don't.)
(Any communication with them? After they leave?)
(Not in a
way that we can understand.)
(Any indications or symptoms
they are about to graduate?)
(Oh
yes. They no longer need to experience earth,
so they begin to go physical less and less. Finally, they stop
completely.)
(No,
their . . . uh, radiation begins to change. And they begin to
close (tune down an external stimuli). After that, they click out.)
(are there many other growth
patterns in consciousness similar to humans and earth?)
(You
can't count them if you wanted to, there's that many. And new ones
coming on line constantly.)
(On line?)
(But are humans now in
communication with other such, uh, civilizations?)
(Not
very much. There is some exchange, but it doesn’t seem
necessary or important.)
(What about other, nonphysical energy systems?)
(Oh,
those! We visit them as often as we can.)
(To gather
Loosh ?)
(No.
To
sow it, to plant the seeds. That lets the, uh, ray have an ident (a
mental "address") to focus on.)
(Are
you about to graduate?)
(Yes).
(How do you know this?)
(But you gave me you didn't
have a percept (an insight) what happened to
graduates.)
(I
don't. But you do.)
(We’ve
been expecting this, uh, an event to take place. Then we can leave!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You can also leave
this and
any other Game any time you want, if you can't handle it , but don't
hope that leaving it would make you automatically a Graduate.
Robert Monroe writes about it in his books:
about One-Timers, about the School and that one life is usually not
enough. And
you can find this material on this website either on this link or
Robert Monroe info
or Home Page links.
R.Monroe is often mentioning about Training Centers like Earth and
Schools similar to Earth School of Compressed Learning in other parts
of our Universe with bilions upon billions of humans getting similar
experience of Planetary Physical/NonPhysical Games. "Far Journeys", p.
p. 97, 106, 226:
97
"How do you state it? A drop of water in an ocean cannot understand the
seas or the wave that casts it up on a sandy beach.)
Wait a minute! That came out very human. Maybe THEY are only superhuman
graduates, after all.
(Some of us have passed through the in-human. I was selected because I
am one of those few.)
Few . . . I wonder how many are few. Five, ten, a thousand . . .
(It is difficult to assess due to the melding. More than the current
inphysical human population, perhaps one hundred times as many.)
That would imply THEY have been involved since the very beginning of
human life.
(That is correct. Before that, we are, just as you.)
And if several hundred billion are just a few, that must mean the total
of THEM must be big numbers . . .
(We do not count the parts of the whole. It is not necessary.)
If there are that
many parts of the whole, then there must be other important ways to learn,
other non-earth human systems . . .
(No other precisely
as you have found in-human physical earth. There are many other consciousness
growth centers or schools, as you call them, throughout what you know as
the physical universe)..."
106
"And the other training centers on planets circling those billions of
stars, tied to us by an intelligent energy field common to all of us.
Were they as unaware as we?
I felt very small, looking at the stars—and beyond. But not
alone. Never alone."
226
"(In time-space,) I went on, (are there many other growth patterns in
consciousness similar to humans and earth?)
She rolled (laughed). (You can't count them if you wanted to, there's
that many. And new ones coming on line constantly.)
I flickered. (On line?)
She rolled stronger. (AA knew you would like it if I used that phrase.)"
There are also those addicted humans and aliens who know in advance
that they are not interested to evolve and would continue to play Games
the way they did before, those who give us a hell here.
I
personally feel that
Earth's Planetary Being has both energies: female and male and so do
all the planets of this solar system and the same is with our Sun.
To have just a female or just a male energy is very unbalanced!

[Introduction: Memories are a strange thing, there are tangible
memories that can be proven factually, there are suppressed memories
which are clouded recollections of actual events, memories that are a
mixture of real and unreal events, memories based on imagination and
possibly most frightening of all, memories that have been intentionally
"programmed" within the mind of a person, which might consist of
anything between actual real life experiences to entirely "designer"
memories that may have been inserted to "cover up" experiences that are
far more stranger than fiction. Just where in the spectrum the
experiences of Andy Pero may fit, I do not know exactly, although many
of the places and people he describes DO exist as evidenced by the
links that I've added... so at least a good number of his memories are
apparently accurate... but the question is, are his reported
experiences with the alien time/space projects as carried out in the
Montauk bases also based on fact, and if so to what degree? Others have
made similar claims about Montauk {although these fantastic experiences
do not appear until the last few sections of Andy's story} as can be
seen by doing a SEARCH of the Internet for other writings on the
Montauk Project. So here then -- for those very few readers who will
view this page -- is Andy Pero's story... - Bruce Alan Walton,
"Branton"]
*********************
This is my story, and this is my life. This is the time line in which
events occurred as well as I can recall. As I slowly regain my memory
this is my life as I can remember it. This is however just a rough
outline and many of the parallel timelines which coexist during my life
have been left out of this document. As time goes by more and more of
the pieces will fall into place.
Here is my time line
My father graduates from the US Navel Academy class of '63 (Michael A.
Pero Jr.).
Aug 1966-Nov 1968- My family is stationed at the CB's Construction
Battalion Center in Hueneme, California.
Nov 1968- My family moves to Fallon Nevada. My father is the LT.
Commander at the Fallon Navel Air Station in Fallon Nevada.
Nov 25th 1969- I was born, in Fallon, Nevada. I am Michael Andrew Pero
III.
July 12th 1971- My father resigns his commission as the LT. Commander
at the Fallon Navel Air Station and leaves the Navy. We move to New
Jersey, and he begins work in the private sector.
June 1974- July 1976- My father begins a new job overseas, and we move
to Munich, Germany. {note: capital of bavaria, as in, "bavarian"
illuminati - branton}. I am 5 years old. I attended to two different
schools at this time, the German kindergarten in the morning, and then
the English kindergarten afternoon (kindergarten and then 1st grade).
This is where the first discrepancies begin between my memory and my
parents.
I remember living in Germany. I remember our apartment, and how our cat
"twinkee" would not listen to anyone who called her in German. But if
anyone, no matter who it was called her in English she would come
running. I remember my best friend was a little girl with long straight
brown hair and brown eyes. I ate dinner over her house and I remember
after dinner she took two beers out of her parents refrigerator and we
drank them in her driveway. I was all worried we were going to get in
trouble, but she said she drank beer all the time. I took about three
sips and felt like I was going to throw up. I wanted to dump mine out
but she didn't want to waste the beer, so she drank mine too. I
remember my sister trying to teach me how to dance and she flung me
around the apartment so fast I was thrown into the corner of the wall
and cut my head open and had to go and get stitches. I remember all of
this.
But most importantly I remember the German kindergarten. I remember the
teacher and how she looked. She was very nice to me and had long wavy
brown and gray hair, and looked like she swallowed a tire around her
waist as she was heavy set. I remember being introduced to my first
"gummy bear" and how I thought they were the "coolest thing ever".
Being an American and being the physically biggest kid in the class I
was a sort of the class celebrity, and the center of attention. I
remember the mini pool they had outside, it was only about a foot deep,
but we would strip down to our underwear and when it was warm outside
go in for a swim. I remember all of these things, but when it comes to
the "American" school I supposedly went to in the afternoon. I DON'T
REMEMBER ANYTHING! I have no memory of another class room, I have no
memories of another building, I have no memories of any friends,
people, or teachers, no memory of even going to another school. WHAT I
DO REMEMBER IS AN AIR BASE. I remember as I was walking up to it for
the first time it was a huge place with a big chain link fence around
it.
There were airplanes and miles and miles of cement. And I don't
remember the man who was walking with me but I DO remember asking him
"why are you taking me here?" and he answered "Because of your father!"
"But my father was in the Navy, why are you taking me to an air base?"
I asked again. And the man answers "Son, all branches of the military
work very closely together." "But he is no longer in the Navy?" I
answered. And he said "We are doing this as a 'special' favor for your
father." "Why" I asked. "BECAUSE WE TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN!" he says as
his tone has changed, and then he said "you sure do ask a lot of
questions you little shit." I remember this hurt my feelings because I
wasn't trying to be a little shit, I just wanted to know why there were
taking me to this strange place. I don't remember being inside of the
air base. All I remember is the inside of a doctor's room; an examining
room. They made me strip down to my underwear and sit on this shinny
metal table. I remember the table being very cold, so cold that I asked
if I could move or get off it and a big booming voice shouts out "DO
NOT MOVE AND DO NOT SPEAK UNLESS YOU ARE SPOKEN TO." So I sat there
with goose bumps on my legs. I hear movement behind me and I hear "is
this the kid" and a man comes over and starts examining me with his
hands, with a stethoscope, and hits my knee with a rubber hammer.
That's all I remember. I was 5 years old.
I never really thought about it much, but as I began writing all this
down, I casually asked my mother for the name of the air base in
Germany where I went to school in the afternoon.
She said "you never went to any military air base for school in
Germany." "Really" I said. "Then where did I go to school in Germany?"
I asked her. "Some school of the "Americus" at the university or
something." She said. "FOR KINDERGARTEN!!" I said. "Mom that doesn't
make any sense, I went to a military base for English school because
Dad was in the Navy, right?" "Don't be ridiculous, I'm your mother and
I know where and when you went to school!" she says. "OK; Then what was
the name of the school in Germany mom!" I ask. And she thinks and
thinks and she can't remember the name. We then proceed to have a huge
argument about this. She finally walks away and says she doesn't want
to talk about it any more.
I had always just assumed that I went to the German kindergarten in the
morning and then the air base in the afternoon, because of the
connection through my father and that ís why I was there. If
I
never had asked my mother for the name of the air base, I never would
have thought twice about any of this. I never really thought about it
much, but now that I do think about it. I clearly remember the German
kindergarten, and clearly I remember the air base and the examining
room. I don't remember ever going to any other school or having any
other friends from that school or even being there. I do remember the
conversation with the man as to why they were taking me there, and I do
remember the examining room. It ís like a 5 second clip of a
10
minute movie. Just a couple of seconds and then it stops, and yet you
somehow know there is much more.
When I asked my father if he knew where I went to school in Germany. He
replied "sure" the McGraw Kaserne Army Troop Air Base. When I asked him
about the examinations. He replied "we were told by a doctor that you
had a "heart murmur or heart noise", it was nothing serious but they
wanted to examine me several times anyway." The thing is later on after
I graduated college I went into see a cardiologist. I had been having
chest pains for years from the massive steroid injections they had
given me my freshmen year in college, I had developed arthritis in the
cartilage between my ribs from my rib cage expanding so fast from the
steroids.
When I asked about my "heart noise" the cardiologist showed me my print
out and showed me that my heart beat was absolutely perfect, and there
is absolutely no sign of ANY "heart noise" what so ever!
Aug 1976- We move back to New Jersey, I begin 1st grade, again, in the
local school system. My mother held me back believing that I would do
better in my schooling if I was one of the "older" kids in the class
rather than one of the "youngest" (I guess my birthday was right on the
border and it could have gone either way).
Sept 1979- My parents have been belligerent toward each other for some
time now, and decide to get a divorce (at this point they separate). I
am now 9 years old and am entering the 4th grade. As children, the
school system tests all children's IQ levels, I remember being told
that I was an "absolute genius". I don't know what my IQ was but this
was met with utter disbelief and I was mocked and ridiculed by the
parents and teachers because I was the "Big dumb Jock". As I was by far
the biggest kid in the class, and the best athlete. However I had a
severe stuttering problem. I was considered to be the class idiot,
because I never spoke, and I never did well in school. {note:
ironically, my own father was in the Navy, I was also held back a
grade, and did not do well in school... except in arts, but in
mathematics and similar subjects i failed misterably - branton} So the
fact that I was this "genius" must have been wrong, and the parents of
one of the most affluent areas in New Jersey would not accept that this
big stuttering idiot could possibly be smarter then their sons and
daughters so it was dismissed. I had had the stuttering problem for as
long as I can remember and all throughout my childhood I literally
could not speak a complete sentence, many time I could not even speak a
word. The thing is I cannot remember when or why I started stuttering,
but I do remember being able to speak German fluently without any
problem at all and having no speech problems German or English at all.
I stuttered severely from about the time we got back from Germany up
until the age of 25.
March 1981- My mother enrolls me in the "Silva Mind Control" course,
and this is where I first remember meeting "the men in uniform." The
Silva Mind Control method is sort of a self hypnosis course where you
learn to dive down into the different levels of your mind. You learn
things like how to heal your body with your mind, relaxation
techniques, ways to focus your concentration, and melt spoons with your
mind (things like that). You may have heard of it? Anyway, while in the
course we learned to go to our "level" (a relaxed state of mind which
is the bases of the Silva method). I was extremely good at all of the
things we were doing for some reason right from the start. Children who
are 11 years old are very cruel to each other. And what happened was
the whole class as a group would close their eyes and practice "going
to your level" but as I came out of my "level" I would open my eyes and
find that the WHOLE class was turned around in their chairs and they
had been watching me for 15 to 20 minutes. They had been watching my
rapid eye movements, my body and my technique. As I came out of it,
they all began laughing at me. The instructor however, was praising me
like I was the next god's gift to mankind. Telling me that I was the
greatest student he has ever seen etc. etc..
During one of the breaks (about six weeks into the eight week course)
the instructor asks me to go outside to meet some of his "friends". I
go outside with him (and let me tell you, when you are 10 years old and
you are in a class room for two hours at a time on your Saturdays and
Sundays for eight straight weeks you ABSOLUTELY live for your 15 minute
breaks) so needless to say I was not very interested in wasting my
"break time" talking to whoever these people were. We go out the double
doors and there are two men waiting to talk to me.
THEY BOTH WERE WEARING MILITARY UNIFORMS, one was wearing army green,
and the other was in blue (possible Air Force but I can't be sure). The
instructor states to the men "this is the kid" and they make some small
talk. To be honest I really didn't pay much attention to them (I was
looking at the other kids on the play ground and wondering why the hell
I'm over here and not over there). But here's the main point; The man
in green bends down on one knee and says to me "I hear you have some
very special abilities" and I said "I do"? In a very confused response.
He stands back up and speaks to the instructor some more, then kneels
back down and says "It was very nice meeting you, YOU KNOW YOUR GOING
TO WORK FOR ME SOME DAY!" As an 11 year old you don't quite grasp what
is really going on and I remember laughing and telling him that I
didn't quite understand, but it was nice meeting him, and I ran off to
the play ground. But when I looked back, the three adults were still
standing there looking at me, talking about me, and sizing me up.
I just seemed to have an uncanny ability to do what ever the teacher
instructed the class to do. Everything he instructed us to "envision"
in our minds I could do better that anyone else in the class. Bending
spoons with your mind, going to your "level", anything. I am now 11
years old and about to enter the 6th grade.
Sept 1981- I enter the 6th grade. I had been playing organized sports
for a few years already (T-Ball, parent slow pitch etc..), but now was
the time for the first REAL challenge "the 8th grade school soccer
team." When the school soccer tryouts came I tried out for the 8th
grade soccer team as a 6th grader. The coach was against that because
he didn't think I could play with the older boys, but he let me tryout
anyway. Well, I made the team, but I was so good I turned out to be the
best kid on the team, and we were the best team in the county. I just
had an uncanny ability to do what ever the coach asked me to do. For
example, the first day of tryouts the coach kicks the ball to me and
jokingly says "I want you to take this ball, go down the field and
score a goal" The thing is, I PICTURED IN MY MIND MYSELF GOING DOWN THE
FIELD AND SCOREING THE GOAL. THEN I TOOK THE BALL DRIBBLED THROUGH 4
GUYES AND I DID IT! I didn't think about doing it, I just did it.
It was like it was mind over matter. It ís funny because
honestly I could do things that were so unbelievable on the soccer
field. You have to see it to believe it. Here is how; I honestly didn't
know any better. I didn't know that I wasn't supposed to be able to do
that, just take the ball down the field by yourself and score EVERY
TIME! But in my mind, I could do it, so I did it in real life EVERY
TIME. When the opposing teams coaches asked how old I was, when I told
them they didn't believe me, after the games were over they would thank
me for not running up the score and humiliating "their boys". That's
how good I was and I do have video tapes of the games to prove it!
I not only made the team but started at left wing, and I was
exceptional. Later in the year I also made the 8th grade school
Basketball team and the Baseball team. I didn't start as a 6th grader
in Basketball or Baseball but I did play. Just making the teams as a
6th grader was almost an incomprehensible feat, we were by far the
dominate school in the county in almost everything (always the team to
beat). I was very good for my age at Baseball and Basketball, but for
what ever reason I was untouchable when I was on the soccer field.
It's funny, how can someone do things, they are not supposed to be able
to do? Whether it is a feat of physical strength or skill, or it is a
feat of great intellect or will, such as an actor or a professional
athlete beating the odds against them and "making it", when all others
said that it couldn't be done.
Anything that we do as human beings, whether it be a sporting event,
starting a business, going to college or simply deciding to venture out
on your own away from home for the first time. ANY TASK YOU CHOOSE TO
UNDER TAKE, OR ANY FIGHT YOU CHOOSE TO FIGHT. 90% OF WHAT IT TAKES TO
ATTAIN YOUR GOAL, NO MATTER WHAT THAT GOAL MAY BE, IS ALL MENTAL. AND
FROM THAT FEAR IS THE KEY TO IT ALL! IF YOU CAN CONTROL YOUR FEAR YOU
CAN CONTROL YOUR MIND, AND IF YOU CAN CONTROL YOUR MIND YOU CAN CONTROL
YOUR LIFE. If you can understand that everything we do as human beings
is 90% mental, and 10% physical, you understand the secret to life. And
you will do well, at what ever you choose to do! For myself, somehow
using the Silva Mind Control methods, I had the ability to picture
myself performing extraordinary feats on the playing field, and then
somehow accomplishing them in reality with ease, just like it was
second nature. Don't think, just do.
June 1982- My parents, when they were still together, had invested in
several houses in the area, and rented them out as supplemental income.
In June of 1982, my mother, my self and my sister move into the house
we used to rent out in Ramsey [New Jersey] , and put the house we just
left on the market for sale (basically my father moved into one house
we owned in Waldwick, we moved into the other house in Ramsey, and my
parents sold the "big" house in Ho-Ho-Kus we all used to live in and
split the money in the divorce). Our "new" house in Ramsey was located
only about 10 minutes from the old house in Ho-Ho-Kus but it was in a
different school district. I am 12 years old and going into 7th grade.
Also starting in a new school.
July 11th 1983- My mother had been dating a man who's name was Walter
Johnson. They had been seeing each other for the past 2 years or so and
were engaged to be married. My parent's had finalized their divorce
earlier that year, he had been separated from his wife for about 4
years. On July 11th 1983, Mr. Johnson went over to his soon to be
x-wife's house to sign and finalize their divorce papers. Unknown to
Mr. Johnson, his soon to be ex-wife (Sally Johnson) had stolen a .357
magnum pistol from her brother.
What happened next was the following, as Mr. Johnson was hunched over
at his desk in the basement of his old house signing the divorce
papers. Sally Johnson came up behind him and said "If I cannot have you
no one else will" and shot him in the back of his head. He died
instantly, and when the police finally found him two days later his
head had been completely blown off his body. EVERY WORD OF THIS
UNFORTUNATELY IS ALL TRUE. His name again was Walter Johnson. He was
the Director for Senior Executive Personnel for the EXXON Oil Corp. New
York office. He was killed on July 11th 1983 in Ridgewood, New Jersey.
He was my mother's fiancee.
My mother, for the next several years was beyond any rational means of
description in terms of hysteria, and grieving. Her German friend
Astrid was a great help in her time of need. What this did to me
however was the following. As a 12 year boy, coming home from school
and seeing and hearing your mother crying EVERYDAY, AND ALL DAY and
then ALL NIGHT, AND EVERY NIGHT is very hard on a 12 year old boy. She
was beyond the word devastated. So, obviously at the time, I'm not too
anxious to go home after school. For a while I got into some trouble
(hanging out with the wrong crowd that sort of thing). Then I
discovered my new passion, working out and WEIGHTLIFTING! It became an
obsession. In the 7th grade I began working out everyday. I would ride
my bike up to the high school every day and workout for hours, and I
mean 2 to 3 hours EVERYDAY (anything to avoid going home)!
Dec 1983- From the start I was an exceptionally strong kid. Again,
somehow I just had the ability to picture doing something in my mind
(see my self doing it) and then do it in real life. Using the Silva
mind control I would lay in bed and mentally go through the next day's
workout. For example, I would go to my "level" and concentrate. I would
picture myself bench pressing 195 for 10 reps, then 205 for 8, 215 for
6 etc.. I bench pressed 305 pounds in the 8th grade. This was more than
anyone in the high school could do. Needless to say I was HATTED by all
the high school upper classmen football players before I even got into
high school. I am 14 years old and in the 8th grade. I also set the
grade school high jump record (5'-10") and tied the 60, 100, and 200
yard dash records.
Aug-1984- 1987- My first three years in high school were NOT typical. I
played football in the fall. Specifically did not play Basketball in
the winter so I could workout everyday. Threw the shot put and the
discus in the spring (track and field) and then would workout like a
mad man in the summer to get ready for football in the fall again. I
excelled in all the sports in which I participated in.
As a Freshman, I was one of the best running back in the county. We
were division champions, and the head varsity football coach (Coach
Hyman) asked me to practice with the Varsity squad for the Thanksgiving
day game. The quarterback and captain of the football team (Peter
Bebei) when he got word of this cornered me in the hall with about six
other football players and he told me that if I showed up to practice
for his final game that he and all the other guys were going to beat
the shit out of me in the parking lot. He did not want me "stealing his
thunder" for his final game. I didn't go out for the Thanksgiving game
and this really annoyed Coach Hyman since he believed that I had turned
him down. Track season comes in the spring and I go out for the track
team. I go out for shot put and the discuss as well as the 100 yard
dash and the high jump. Coach Hyman coaches the "weight" throwers and
won't allow me to throw with the varsity even though I am the third
best thrower on the team. I confront him about this and finally he lets
me throw. In the 100 the fastest kid (I forget his name) tells me after
the first day of track practice that if I beat him again that he is
going to kick my ass. So I don't try my best. Why does every one hate
me? I keep asking myself. I earn a varsity letter in track anyway.
In the fall Sophomore year Coach Hyman is having real problems with his
marriage and being an utter ASS Hole to everyone (teachers, students,
and athletes ). One of my talents, if you will, is that I can judge a
person's character within minutes of meeting them. By their body
language, gestures, personality etc. I can size up the person's worst
fear, what they are feeling, what they want all in a matter of moments.
It's like reading a person's soul as easily as you are reading these
words. I just seem to have a "knack" for it. Anyway, I walk into Coach
Hyman's office during one of the breaks and say to him "don't worry
Coach, everything will work out with you and your wife." Trying to be
helpful. He freaks out and starts yelling "get out of here you F*CKING
piece of shit and don't come back because YOU WILL NEVER PLAY HERE AS
LONG AS I AM THE COACH." The next day he brings me into the dean's
office and tells me to "quit" because I will never play at Ramsey High
school. I never quit but for the next two years everyday at practice he
would scream at me to "get off his field" and I wouldn't. Not for any
great love for him or the game by any means. It was simply stay and get
yelled at or go home to my hysterically crying mother. So I stayed and
took his abuse but he felt so violated that I knew what was going on in
his life he didn't want me anywhere near him, and of course I was right
next to him for everything because I wouldn't quit. This made him
extremely hostile towards me.
This continued all through high school. The thing is, every now and
then, whether it was going into the locker room at half time or after
the game getting back on the bus, or at the track meets I REMEMBER
seeing the same two military men (Mr. Green and Mr. Blue). I would play
in 10 football games per year and throw in approximately 20 twenty
track meets a year. Thinking back, I only saw these men 2 or 3 times a
year. To be honest I only remember seeing these men twice at football
games during my four years in high school. Both times I was walking off
the field after the game and I started looking for my parents and I
looked into the crowd, and they were, just standing there in the middle
of a sea of moving people looking right at me. And I said the same
thing "that's odd, what the Hell are those two guys doing here." And
again I would just dismiss it. I would mainly see them at the track
meets. Let me explain, in High school track there are two types of
meets. The track team schedule consisted of 10-12 "Bi or Tri" meets,
when our school competes against another school, or two other schools,
in which case it is a tri meet.
These are small meets and I NEVER saw these men during one of them. The
other types of meets are the county meets, relay meets, and state
meets. These meets consist of 20 to 30 TEAMS being there. As such these
are huge events. I would say between 5,000 and 10,000 people would be
there (I mean some of these things were HUGE events). Anyway, how did I
pick out these two men among 10,000 people. The way these meets work is
everyone sort of goes to their own area. The pole volters go to the
pole volt area, the high jumpers go to the high jump pit, and each area
has it's own crowd which then forms around each area (all the coaches
of those athletes, the parents etc. etc.). So, the shot put circle
usually is over and off to the side somewhere, basically clear of
everything else. As we began to throw, all the competing athletes, the
coaches, and the parents would all sort of gather in the same area to
watch the event.
At least once a year at one of these big meets my eye would just catch
the odd sight of these two men in uniform at these meets. I honestly
convinced myself that at least one of them had to have a son that was
competing or something. It wasn't unusual to see men in uniforms at the
track meets because other kids were going to go to school at the
military academies and as the meets transpired, I occasionally saw
other men in uniforms walking around and talking to people. For example
the shot putter from Lodi was going to go to West Point, and I saw
another man in a green uniform over talking to him. What made this all
so weird was the two men I'm talking about were looking at me and I
didn't know why. I didn't put it all together until years later.
May-1987-
Track season junior year, at one of the major relay meets, it was
announced the prior week that there was going to be a "clean and jerk
weightlifting contest" sponsored by some guy I had never heard of. I of
course was all excited, and trained that week on my technique.
As it turns out all it was, was a guy with some rubber mats and a
Olympic barbell set in the middle of a grass field. I took second place
with a lift of 265 lbs power cleaned to the chest and then pressed over
my head. The kid who won was a senior and did 275. It was just sort of
a "friendly" contest. I am 17 years old and in 11th grade.
July-1987- It's summer time and I am training for football. I get a
call from a coach I had never spoke to before, coach Himmel? Humle?
Burle? I can't remember his exact name or his phone number but I do
remember that he is from somewhere in Colorado. Anyway, he is the
United States Power lifting team coach and he wants me to drop
everything that I am doing and move to Colorado on a whims notice, to
go train for the clean and jerk. I asked him in confusion why he was
calling me, I finished second in the contest? He then says to me I
finished second but the guy I lost to was a year older but more
importantly he was also 50 pounds heavier. So pound for pound I was
much stronger and as it turns out that in my age group and for my
weight (17 years old and between 201 and 229 lbs.) I was ranked fifth
in the country, in this one particular lift. This may seem like a dream
come true for me, but let me tell you. Just like with anything you do,
even if you really enjoy it, there can be things you really hate about
it as well. The power clean and the clean and jerk were my absolute
least favorite exercises. To be blunt, I loved working out but I
despised those particular two exercises especially. This along with the
fact that I could not just "get up and leave my mother." She was doing
much better, but by no stretch of the imagination could her mental
condition be considered to be "stable." I am 17 years old and about to
enter the 12th grade and I do not go to Colorado to train for the U.S.
power lifting team.
Aug-1987- Football camp senior year, I test in the bench press 390 lbs,
in the squat 505 lbs, and in the power clean 280 lbs. We finish the
season 6-3 and are division champs. I begin working out again and I
start to think about college.
Dec 1987-May 1988- My workouts continue very well. However I develop a
"new idea". Now when I go through my workout mentally at night I have
added a new "twist". When I am down on my "level" in my mind I have
added a huge chair in the room in which I am standing. Using my Silva
mind control I sit in the chair. On the left hand side of the chair are
some "air hoses" like you would find in a auto garage. I imagine, that
on both of my arms there are these "air hoses" coming out of my arms.
Like an I-V hose coming out of your arm. This is my "pump up chair". In
my mind I connect the hoses coming out of my arms to the hoses on the
side of the chair. I push a button located on the right arm of the
chair with my right index finger and the chair activates. Like an air
station I can feel the vibrations as I sit in the chair. As I sit there
I see my entire body start to swell. Like blowing up a balloon. I
mentally tell my muscles to grow and swell like balloons, AND THEY DO!
I do this for about six weeks.
This works so well that many of the parents and teachers think that I
am now doing steroids. I am not, but the situation snow balls into some
kind of "witch hunt" and they make me take a steroid test. What
happened was as I am working out one day Father Jack (the local priest
who is always hanging around the kids and the football team) comes into
the weight room as I am working out. He says to me "Andy, there is a
lot of talk about your steroid usage, and if you admit it to me right
now every thing will be all right." "Father Jack" I said "I don't use
steroids." He says "I'm going to ask you one more time to admit to
using steroids." I look him right in the eye and I say "Look Father, I
DON'T use steroids." And he got very angry and says to me and I will
never forget this "Don't ever speak to me again you f*cking liar, they
are going to hang you by your balls and I am going to be there to
watch!"
A few days later Jeff Brown (one of the kids on the team) comes in to
the weight room and tells me that Father Jack wants to see me at the
grammar school as soon as I am done. When I finish my workout I go up
to the school and Father Jack is waiting for me impatiently. He grabs
my arm and I get brought in front of some kind of panel in the basement
of the grade school located down the street. There are four members of
the panel and the rest of the room is filled with teachers and parents.
Dr. Purrizzo who is the chief orthopedic surgeon at valley hospital in
Bergen county New Jersey. Bergen county is the third most affluent area
in the country, and the towns of Saddle River and Ramsey are in the top
towns in the country in terms of wealth. Dr. Purrizzo is a heavy heavy
hitter in the area if you know what I mean. When President Nixon, who
resided in Saddle River before he died, hurt his knee playing tennis
Dr. Purrizzo was the surgeon who performed the operation, and for a
while was on the Presidential list of referral surgeons. I am standing
in front of the panel and he starts pressing me to "admit" that I am
doing steroids. And I keep answering that "I DIDN'T DO IT!". He keeps
pressing me saying that among the panel they hold seven PHD's and he
thinks they know what they are talking about so "make it easy on
yourself and just admit it". And I keep telling them that "I DON'T GIVE
A SHIT WHAT YOU SAY AND I DON'T CARE WHO YOUR ARE AND WHAT YOUR
CREDENTIALS ARE, I DIDN'T DO IT!"
He tells me to take off my shirt to the show the acne on my back, but
there is no acne. This sort of thing goes on for a while and he finally
tells me to "take off your shorts or admit to doing steroids". What
could I do, so I took off my shorts and I volunteered to give a urine
sample. I had to piss in a cup in front of the panel as well as
everyone else wearing only my sneakers. He is very pissed at me and
does not give me my shorts back for quite a while. This whole time one
of the other members of the board is Dr. Purrizzoís friend.
He
is a Psychologist and between the two of them they now start saying
that they are going lock me up in for being mentally insane if I don't
admit to taking steroids. And again I say "LOOK, I DIDN'T DO IT!". This
goes on and on. I had gone through a whole defense proving that I
didn't do it and no matter what I said and no matter what proof I
presented I was going to be hanged whether I did it or not. Finally I
say "Tell me how you know that I take steroids, what's your proof, do
you have a camera in my house or something, how do you know?" Finally
after much persuasion from the crowd and from myself reluctantly, he
begins to explain that he has a degree in genetics, and that he has
been studying my genetic code for years. He then goes on to explain how
his son's genetic pattern is superior to mine in terms of dominate DNA
markers. He had been doing a private "thesis" study showing how through
superior genetic breeding and steroid usage he could create a superior
human being. He had a test subject and a control subject.
His son was the test subject and I was the control subject. He had been
injecting his own son with steroids for years and since his son's DNA
pattern was superior to mine, his son, in theory, should have been more
physically developed then me. And since he wasn't, Dr. Purrizzo's only
explanation was that I must have been taking steroids as well, and he
must prove that I was or else his life's work would have been wasted.
This was all a great theory, however the fatal flaw where he had made
his mistake was that he had assumed that I was of Italian background
because my last name is "Pero". So he was comparing my DNA patterns
against the same ones he had used for his son who is Italian. He never
bothered to ask if I was Italian, I am NOT. My background is Hungarian,
Romanian, and Czech. This makes all the difference in the world, and I
manage to get out of there unscathed.
When the test comes back, it is negative, and I tell all those involved
that they can go "stick it where the sun doesn't shine." The whole
episode is quite funny as I turned their "witch hunt" into a circus,
especially my defensive strategy. For the rest of the school year all
the people who were at the trial all gave me the dirtiest looks
imaginable. All because I had the utter nerve to stand up for my self
and say "I didn't do it!" This was Ramsey New Jersey, and the feeling
in the air was that they didn't care if I was falsely accused they
would not stand for a child talking to them in that manner.
It was all videotaped, and at one time there were several copies
floating around. Anyway, as a result of this, I stop using this
technique for the present time. But that was far from the end of Dr.
Purrizzo. I am 18 years old and in the second half of my senior year of
high school. This experience was very scary for the reason that I saw
the "adult" world for what it really was. As a child you grow up
believing that all adults are "all knowing" and are on top of things.
But as I stood there and Dr. Purrizzo is telling me that if I did't
admit to taking steroids that he was going to have me committed to a
mental institution and have a lobotomy performed on me. As I looked
around ALL the other adults just stood around like scared sheep. Not
one of them said a word in my defense. This was the strangest feeling,
seeing the adult world as a child for what it really was for the first
time. I realized then that adults are exactly the same as the children,
only they are bigger. There is one bully that runs the show, and
everyone else just stands around scared to say anything. Just as they
do as children.
Now and for the past several months college football recruiters have
been in contact with me both by mail and personal visits as the
selection process narrows. I should have been already "signed" by a
major University. But since Hyman made me disappear from the college
scouts for two years by not playing me. I had fallen out of the "Blue
chip athlete loop" and I am now scrambling to find a school. I am
talking to two or three smaller division two and division three schools
as well as Penn State. Penn State had been where I wanted to go all
along but Hyman was trying to cover for what he had been doing to me by
lying to the Penn State coaching staff, sending them the wrong films,
telling them different statistics things like that, because he didn't
want to have to explain why I didn't play at all as a sophomore and
hardly as a Junior. Finally he gets exposed, and Penn State offers me a
scholarship for my first year and then a "full ride" after that. I was
going to get free room and board, all I had to pay for was books and
classes (an out of state student was going to be about $3000).
It is the track season, at the county track meet (the championship
meet). I win the discus and set the county and state record with a
throw of 167 feet and 11 inches. I finish second in the shot put with a
throw of 57 feet and 3 inches. AT THIS MEET I VIVIDLY REMEMBER SEEING
THE TWO MEN IN MILITARY UNIFORMS WATCHING ME. They were right there,
for both events and watched me set the record.
Ever since I had gotten my drivers license I used to like to unwind a
little before going home. So I would ride around the area and play
music in my car. A few days after the trial while riding around a
bronco type vehicle is flashing their headlights at me from behind, so
I pull over. This happened on West Saddle River Road, and I pulled into
a small parking lot right next to the red building where my step mother
used to sell real-estate. It is Mrs. Purrizzo driving the bronco, she
is an incredibly beautiful woman (late thirties with a lot of plastic
surgery). She was at the trial and during it lets just say that I had
made her blush when I was standing in only my sneakers. There is
another woman with her. A woman I had never seen before. She had long
black hair and dark eyes she was even more beautiful that Mrs. Purizzo.
They tell me to get in the back of the bronco (when you are 18 years
old and two of the most beautiful women you have ever seen tell you to
get in the back of their car it is difficult to resist) so I play along
and I do.
Mrs. Purrizzo hands me a small plastic shot glass (like something you
would see in a hospital) it has some kind of clear liquid in it and she
tells me that it's water and I must be thirsty and that I should drink
it. I'm thinking to my self "she has got to be kidding if she thinks
I'm going to fall for that." I take the glass and pretend to drink it
behind the high back head rest of the drivers seat but in reality place
it still full on the floor mat behind the drivers seat. The women then
start to giggle and make small talk by telling me how handsome I am,
and how big and strong I am. I know exactly what's going on and I play
along. I return the complements by telling them that they are the most
beautiful women that I have ever seen, and when I look in their eyes I
become lost floating on a sea of dreams. I made both of them blush with
that one. Then they ask me if I am ready to go with them. "Go where" I
ask. "To the hotel room of course" Mrs. Purrizzo answers. "You can go
to the hotel room if you want to but I am going home" I say. She asks
me "are you sure you don't want to come with us?" she asks. "Positive"
I answer and I start to get out of the bronco. "Oh yea" I say "Here is
your water back" and I hand them the small plastic shot glass. They
look at each other and cannot hold back their smile and look away and
to the floor. I get out and say "see you later". I get in my car and
drive home.
The next evening at about the same time, but in the exact same spot,
and in the exact same car the two women pull me over again. And again I
pull onto the same small parking lot on West Saddle River Road. I get
out but this time I go only to the window. Mrs. Purrizzo has the
drivers window rolled down and says to me "Andy, can you kill this for
me" and hands me a coke can with just a little bit left of something
left in the bottom. Again I am thinking to my self "who the f*ck does
she think she is kidding with this." I say "SURE" and I take the can of
coke from her and walk over to the dumpster and toss it in. I walk back
to the car and I can tell from the look in her face that she is pissed
off. I say "anything else" and I turn my back to her and walk away. I
get in my car and drive away.
The next night the same thing happens, in the same spot at the same
time. I pull over and get out of my car angry. As I walk over to her
bronco I say "Look this stupid game has gone on long enough". She
interrupts me and says "Andy, PLEASE just get in because we have to
talk." I say "NO", and she begs "Andy, PLEASE!" As she almost has tears
in her eyes. Like an idiot I reluctantly get in. This time they have a
bottle of Vodka with three small plastic shot glasses. The woman with
the black hair pours the three small glasses full and hands me one. I
had had enough and I say In a rude tone "DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT I AM
SO STUPID TO BELIEVE THAT THAT'S REALLY VODKA IN THAT GLASS!" She says
to me "were sorry for fooling with you and want to make peace, will you
have a drink with us?" I knew from the get go that what ever she was
giving me had to be drugged with something, but at the same time I felt
somehow that there was going to be no getting out of this. I was not
afraid of Dr. Purrizzo because I really never did steroids and I had
nothing to hide, I just wanted it all to be over. So I thought about
what to do and finally I said to her ""MRS. PURRIZZO I WILL DRINK THAT
GLASS OF WHAT EVER IT IS ON ONE CONDITION AND ONE CONDITION ONLY! IF
YOU SWEAR, IF YOU PROMISE THAT YOU WILL NOT LET THEM HURT ME. DO YOU
SWEAR YOU WON'T LET THEM HURT ME!" And of course she swears that she
won't let them hurt me, and of course like an idiot I drink the glass
of "Vodka". I am out with in seconds.
When I wake up I am in a hotel room. I am sitting in a chair and it is
very difficult to keep my eyes open, but I can make out several dark
figures in various spots around the room. I couldn't keep my eyes open
but I could hear. They had given me sodium pentathol and were now going
to get the "truth" out of me. I can barley see him but I know it's Dr.
Purrizzo. He starts asking me questions. "Andy what kind of steroids do
you take?" "I don't use steroids" I answer. I can hear him cursing as
he asks me again, "Andy, you wouldn't lie to me would you, I'm going to
ask you again, What kind of steroids do you take." And again I answer
"I already told you I DON'T USE STEROIDS!" and I hear him ranting and
raving. His friend the psychologist then comes over and asks to take a
try. The line of questioning changes from direct to indirect questions.
He asks "Andy, tell me, where do you buy your steroids?" I answer "I
have never bought steroids." He asks "How long have you been taking the
steroids?" and again I answer "I've never taken steroids".
Dr. Purrizzo is now furious and he is ranting I'll get it out of him
and he stabs me in my right thigh with a syringe and injects me with
more sodium pentathol. I think I lost consciousness for a while and
then the questioning begins again. "Where do you buy your steroids?"
and again I answer "I don't use steroids." This goes on and on for a
while finally the psychologist comes over and asks me "Andy, if you
don't use steroids how do you explain your abnormal physique?" Simple,
I answer "I CHEAT!" What do you mean by "you cheat" he asks. "I USE THE
POWER OF MY MIND TO BUILD MY MUSCLES; IT WORKS PRETTY GOOD.. DOSEN'T
IT?" and I remember a big smile coming over my face as I felt proud of
what I could do. And they all come over to me and I then proceed to
explain the Silva Mind Control method that I use. How I go to my level.
The psychologist asks me to do it now, and I find myself explaining my
trip down into my mind. When I get to my "level" I give them a tour of
"my room". They are all talking in astonishment. "WAIT" I say "HERE IS
THE BEST PART" and I explain to them the "pump up chair" I use to grow
my muscles, the underground stadium where "I can do anything" on this
"magic" field.
I hear the psychologist yelling at Dr. Purrizzo "And you want to give
this kid a lobotomy, I COULD MAKE A F*CKING CAREER OUT OF THIS KID!!!"
He said something like I was the greatest psychophsiologic example, and
that I had the greatest Autogenic abilities he has ever seen (or
something like that). He also used a term something like
psychoneuroimmunology if that makes any sense. Anyway, he then tells me
to open my hand and starts to place objects in them. He tells me that I
am holding a banana and he wants me to crush it. I squeeze the "banana"
and I feel it "squish" like a banana. I hear everyone start murmuring
in disbelief. I have no idea what they placed in my hand but I do know
it sure as hell wasn't a banana.
Soon after this I start to feel sick. I fall off my chair. I am
sweating profusely, and I start convulsing as I begin to throw up. As I
am laying on my left side on the floor throwing up on my self. The
psychologist comes over to me and looks into my eyes, he drops me and
starts yelling at Dr. Purrizzo "HOW MUCH DID YOU GIVE HIM!... HOW MUCH
DID YOU GIVE HIM! HIS PUPILS ARE DILATED AND HE NEEDS TO GO TO THE
HOSPITAL RIGHT NOW!!!. NOW HOW MUCH DID YOU GIVE HIM?" Dr. Purizzo
answers "two thousand". The psychologist answers "YOU GAVE HIM TWO
THOUSAND, HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND?" Dr. Purrizzo answers "and then
another two thousand when he wouldn't answer". The psychologist answers
"FOUR THOUSAND! HAVE YOU GONE TOTALLY INSANE?. THIS KID HAS TO GO TO
THE HOSPITAL RIGHT NOW!" Four thousand what I don't know (milligrams,
milliliters, Cc's) I don't know, all I remember is the numbers. I keep
throwing up and I hear then arguing.
The psychologist is yelling at Dr. Purrizzo "you said you had a plan,
what's your plan". Dr. Purrizzo answers "I was sure we would get it out
of him that he was lying, and then we would be excused from taking him
because he was a lier." "THAT'S IT!!!? THAT WAS YOUR PLAN, TO KIDNAP A
KID AND THEN NO ONE WOULD PRESS CHARGES BECAUSE HE WAS LYING TO YOU
ABOUT TAKING STEROIDS? YOU HAVE GONE ABSOLUTELY INSANE!" Dr. Purrizzo
then says "We will take him to my office and give him an Emergency
lobotomy so he will never tell anyone!" Mrs. Purrizzo then steps up and
says "IF YOU HURT THAT CHILD I WILL TELL!" Dr. Purrizzo then turns to
her as he is laughing and says "WHO ARE YOU GOING TO TELL?" "THE
POLICE" SHE SAYS "I WILL TELL THE POLICE!" He starts calling her a
little bitch and how he is disgusted that she would turn against her
own husband for this kid. "I will not allow you to hurt that child" she
says.
He says "WELL DID YOU REALLY THINK I WAS JUST GOING TO LET HIM GO,
AFTER WHAT HE DID TO ME AT THE TRIAL." "I will not allow you to hurt
that child" she repeats. Then there is some discussion as to what to
do. Finally the psychologist comes over to me as I am covered with
vomit and barely able to remain conscious. He starts swinging this
little metal ball on the end of a string in front of my face. I try to
watch it as he tells me to and then everything goes black. I wake up,
and I am on the front steps of my house and my car is parked on the
street in front of the house (I know I didn't drive it home because I
always pull into the driveway). I have a lot of trouble getting up, it
feels like I am drunk or something and I go right to bed. The next
morning, I have trouble getting up in the morning and I can't quite
make it out but I had the weirdest dream about being in a hotel room,
and Dr. Purrizzo was there. I remembered most of the events but it was
very foggy.
The weekend goes by and then after my workout on Tuesday as I am
driving around in the same spot there is the Bronco again. This time I
remember what happened and I am pissed off. I get out and I slam the
door and I start yelling at Mrs. Purrizzo. As I am yelling at her and
walking towards the car, she rolls down the window and starts to say
something, then the next thing I know is I am back in the hotel room
again. I was in some sort of hypnotic trance or something. I
couldnít move, and the psychologist then instructs me to
start
squeezing things again.
He has this little gauge and when I squeeze the hand grip I break it.
After he ran all of his tests, then it was Dr. Purrizzo's turn. He
makes me act like a monkey and try and lick myself. I remember jumping
around the room stretching like a monkey and feeling very stupid as
they laughed at me. Then he makes me act like a chicken and does many
other things to humiliate me. This goes on for hours.
Finally, the women who are in the room tell the men to get out because
they now want to have "their" fun with me. The women with the black
hair now comes over to me. She says a few words to me. I don't know
what they were but all of a sudden I felt a feeling like I had never
felt before, I felt like an animal, territorial, like a primal beast, I
got up and started walking around the hotel room pacing back and forth.
My muscles are all pumped up, my arms all muscled and out to the side
and my chest is fully expanded as I strut around the room. I am looking
to defend my lair against any male who may come near. If I see another
male I will kill him. As I look over to one of the beds the woman in
the black hair is naked and on her hands and knees. She has her back
arched and is waving her butt around like she is some bitch in heat. I
see her and get an instant erection. I walk over to her, rip off my
shorts and start, excuse the term, f*cking the shit out of her. I pick
her up like she is a five year old and just started wailing into her. I
felt like a primal animal. I f*cked her like I was some sort of a beast
from the stone age. And she was loving every minute of it. I wasn't
reaching climax, I was just nailing the shit out of this woman. It
wasn't pleasure.
I was feeling it was more of a territorial act if that makes any sense.
After a while I pulled out and literally tossed her aside when I saw
Mrs. Purrizzo sitting naked in a chair in the corner masturbating as
she watched me nail her friend. I grab her by the hair and throw her on
the bed and repeat the same procedure with Mrs. Purrizzo. This went on
for hours as the women had me "f*ck them" in different positions, in
their vagina as well as their anus. Carrying out every sick fantasy
they had, I would do whatever they told me to do to them. I am f*cking
the woman with the black hair in a chair in the corner, so hard that
she has passed out. I didn't care. I just kept right on going until I
heard voices coming from behind me, male voices. I hear "WHAT THE F*CK
ARE YOU GIRLS DOING" and then I hear Mrs. Purrizzo say "well what did
you think we were going to do with him". "I don't know? I thought you
were going to make him act like a chicken or something" I hear him say.
I pull out of the woman with the black hair and toss her onto the
floor. I turn and see Dr. Purrizzo and a few other men by the door.
Without thinking I reach down and grab the chair by the leg with my
left hand, I stand up and grab the other leg with my other hand and rip
the chair apart like breaking a wishbone. It was like the chair was
made out of toothpicks or something because it took no effort at all, I
just ripped it apart. I now had a chair leg in my left hand and I toss
the rest of the chair off to the side. I start walking toward the men
with my "club" my "weapon". Mrs. Purrizzo becomes frantic and starts
yelling "HE WILL KILL YOU! GET OUT NOW!. HE WILL KILL YOU" to Dr.
Purrizzo and she runs toward me to give the men time to get out, I push
her aside and the men are scurrying out the door. They left in such a
hurry they didn't close the door. I wasn't running toward them, just
walking very fast, when they left I didn't go after them I just wanted
them out of "my lair". I slam the door closed, lock and chain it, toss
my club aside and grab Mrs. Purrizzo and toss her onto the bed. I
remember feeling anger as she was "disobedient" and I nailed her as
hard as I could until she had passed out. Then the woman with the black
hair comes over again and this goes on and on. I don't know how it
ended but the next thing I know is I am laying on my front steps again,
and again my car is parked on the street and not in my driveway.
Over the next few weeks I would find myself stopping at the same spot
about once a week. I don't know why, but sometimes I would just pull
the car over. The next thing I know is I'm back in the hotel room. This
time there are four women (Mr. Purrizzo, the woman with the black hair,
and two others I had never seen before). I remember feeling like "an
animal" again. As I was pounding one of the women against the head
board I hear voices behind me. This time there are at least ten people
watching. I see two of the women I had already had sex with on their
knees giving a blowjob to one of the men (I think it was the husband of
the women I was screwing at the time). These sick people are now
getting off watching me screw their wives. And again I throw the women
I am screwing aside and go after the men. And again the women run
interference so the men can get out the door. I wake up and I am trying
to get into my house.
Another time everything is black and all I remember is hearing "G*D
DAMN IT! HE'S GONE SOFT AGAIN!". I struggle to open my eyes and I am
laying on my back, there is a woman on top of me. She was a bit heavier
then the other two and not quite as good looking. I push her off of me
as I try and get up. As I am coming around immediately the woman with
the black hair comes over to me and tells me to look her in her eyes,
to focus and to look at her. I remember looking at her and then after
that all is black again. This time I wake up in the back seat of my car
which is parked on the street in front of my house.
Another time the woman with the black hair and Mrs. Purrizzo decide to
take me to the woman with the black hair's house. They must have been
drugging me as well as having me in a hypnotic trance because they were
trying to get me out of the car and I could not move. I was as limp as
a rag doll and these two women who weighed no more then 115 pounds each
are trying to get me, a 230 pound kid, out of the Bronco and into the
house. I remember them having a very hard time and being dragged across
the ground up the front steps and into the house. I remember this
because someone had called the Police and they show up at the house
about five minutes later. The two women are frantically trying to
figure out what to do. They sit me on the steps going to the upstairs.
The woman with the black hair tells me that Mrs. Purrizzo is my mother
and you just had your tonsils out and your are still groggy from the
anesthetic. She opens the door for the Police and tells him the story
how Mrs. Purrizzo cannot go home yet because her house is being
painted, and her son is still groggy from being under anesthetic. The
cop asks me if I am all right, and I tell him that I'm fine and I
confirm the women's story. The cop leaves and they close the door. They
start telling me how I was "such a good boy". I remember them telling
me how they are going to do treat me "extra special" for being such a
good boy. They were trying to get me up the stairs and they were
complaining because I wasn't helping them enough. I kept telling them
"I'm trying! what have you done to me?" "Nothing Andy!" they said. I
remember them throwing me on the bed and then I felt them trying to get
my cloths off, after that everything is black. To this day I remember
which house they brought me to, and where it is.
May 1988-June 1988- The recruiting "scuffle" has basically past and I
have my college selections narrowed down to two or three schools. My
heart is set on going to Penn State. In the mail mysteriously comes a
letter from West point stating I was scheduled to have my physical
taken to continue my application process for acceptance into West
point. I never had discussed attending West point with anyone. At first
I thought it was my father playing some kind of sick of joke. I spoke
to him and he knew nothing about it. The physical date comes and goes.
About a week later another letter comes stating that I have been
"rescheduled" for another physical appointment at West point. This date
comes and goes. A few days later I get a phone call, the person asks
why I had not gone for the physical. I tell him that had no interest in
attending any military academy much less West point since my father was
an Annapolis graduate. About a week later another letter arrives, this
one states that my presence is now requested at the US Navel Academy to
have my physical taken for admittance into the US Navel Academy. This
date also comes and goes. That was the last incident involving the
academies however since my academic record and my SAT scores were not
even close to academy standards the whole incident is very suspicions.
Dr. Purrizzo comes to my house, rings the bell and tells me he wants to
speak with me out on the street. He proceeds to tell me that he has
"made a great mistake". After rechecking my DNA pattern against the
correct hereditary background it turns out that I am the one with the
superior DNA code. In fact, he says we used your code to determine
dominance of some unknown markers. He knows of my situation with Penn
State and tries to give me $4,600. The money was for college for me. I
tell him I don't want his money (I also knew that if I had accepted
that money as "payment" for damages done that I could not sue him
latter, I think that this was his plan and that's why he had gotten so
mad when I would not accept it). After my final episode with Mrs.
Purrizzo and the woman with the black hair they have a wad of cash for
me. "Andy take it!. You've more that earned it" she says. I tell her I
don't want her dirty money and I hope she chokes on it.
A few days after that Dr. Purrizzo shows up again at my house, tells me
to walk with him to the street again. He tells me that "he has been
discussing it with this psychologist friend and that my mind functions
in such a way in the subconscious THAT HE CAN MAKE ME THE MOST
POWERFULL MAN IN THE WORLD". He then tells me to get into his car and
he wants to take me to his office to do this for me. I say "REALLY?.
OK.. I'll go, but only if my mother comes with me... Can my mother come
with me?" He says that this is just between "us men". I tell him to go
f*ck himself and start walking towards my house. He starts talking
"Your a very smart kid! you had a 50/50 chance! we were going to get
drunk and then decide whether to make you the most powerful man in the
world or give you a lobotomy." I stop and turn to him and say "do you
really think I'm going to believe you when you tell me that YOU are
going to make ME the most powerful man in the world? you might do this
but ONLY if you could control me, if you could not control me then you
would have to destroy me! Do you think I am that stupid? Now get the
fuck out of here before I call the cops!." He then says "as I said you
are one smart kid". He gets in his car and drives away.

People Who Eats Sun
These
are a couple of interesting articles about people whose food is Sun
from Russian websites, which I find extremely important (in
Russian and in English).
There
are 30 thousands people all over the World , who doesn't eat or drink;
10000 people in Germany alone. They live on Sunshine and Evolutionary
Energy for years. Especially it's popular among women. This is the way
of the Future, which already started. Psychic Abilities and Health of
these people increase tremendously. We don't need
food and
water: it makes us weak, sick, not very psychic and mentally unstable!
Mental
diseases are supposed to be treated this way!
http://www.gerbb.ru/dolgojit.htm
('Sun-eaters'
don't have to breathe!)
Солнцееды могут и не дышать!
(In
the world there are people for whom longevity is not a goal in itself.)
В Мире есть люди, для которых долголетие совсем не самоцель.
(They are
'Sun-people', and they
live without the visible aging in such a non-traditional way that it
has no rational explanation.) Это
дети Солнца, и живут они без видимого старения столь нетрадиционным
способом, что рационального объяснения ему нет.
(They
are not just having a hunger srtrike - they have refused food and water
forever. They are called 'Sun-eaters'.)
Они
не просто голодают — они навсегда отказываются от пищи и
воды. Их называют солнцеедами.
(The readers of the
magazine do
remember the woman, the resident of Krasnodar, Zinaida Baranova: we've
been
writing about her for 2 years in a row.)
Об одной такой женщине, жительнице Краснодара Зинаиде Барановой,
читатели «АиФ» наверняка помнят: мы писали о ней
два года
подряд.
(There will be five
years, since
March, Zynaida did not eat or drink.)
В марте исполнилось пять лет с того момента, как Зинаида
Григорьевна ничего не ест и не пьёт.
("How does she
manage?" letters with such questions coming to the editorial
office is not a rarity.)
«Как она там, ещё держится?»
— письма, с такими вопросами в редакции, не
редкость.
(I
am alive and healthy and feel magnificently! Nothing special happened
to me this year.)
"Жива-здорова и великолепно себя чувствую, — отвечает
солнцеедка.
— Ничего особенного за этот год со мной не произошло."
("I have been giving
lectures in different regions.") Ездила по регионам с
лекциями.
(Zinaida
Baranova is still refusing medical examinations: " I have no time to
sit somewhere locked up." (meaning Russian medical facilities,
reminding jails, LM).
Зинаида Баранова по-прежнему отказывается от медицинских обследований:
«На то, чтобы сидеть где-то взаперти, у меня просто нет
времени.
(I have no need to
prove anything to anybody!) Да я никому ничего
доказывать и не собираюсь.
(It's up to you to believe me or not.) Хотите
— верьте, хотите — нет.
(I fully understand the
skepticism of many people, but I have more important goals in my life
instead of dissuading people!)
"Я
вполне понимаю скепсис многих людей, но у меня в жизни есть задачи
поважнее, чем разубеждать их".
(According to Zinaida
Baranova, she feeds on the energy of the Sun, or, as it is called - Penetrating
Evolutionary Energy.)
По
словам Барановой, питается она энергией Солнца или, как её ещё
называют: просачивающейся Эволюционной Энергией.
(Тhe
energy is synthesizing everything necessary for life of the cells of
the body.)
Якобы
эта энергия и синтезирует в клетках тела все необходимые для
жизнедеятельности вещества.
(Despite
the fact that the woman doesn't eat or drink, she goes to the
toilet every day.)
Несмотря на то что женщина ничего не ест и не пьет, в туалет она ходит
ежедневно.
("Byproduct"
of
the Evolutionary Energy - a bit of dark, orangy colored urine, three times less than an
average person has
and a rare mucous
discharge from the intestine.) "Побочный
продукт" Эволюционной Энергии — немного мочи
темно-оранжевого цвета (раза в три меньше, чем у обычного человека) и
редкие слизистые выделения из кишечника.
(There
are about 30 thousands Sun-eaters in the World.)
В мире насчитывается около 30 тыс. таких людей.
(A
physician, psycho-physiologist
Alexander Kliuev does't consider this phenomenon as
fantastic: "The ability to
eat penetrating Evolutionary Energy without receiving
physical food is the result of a radical transformation of
the physiological processes at the cellular level.)
Врач-психофизиолог Александр Клюев не видит в этом феномене
ничего фантастического: «Возможность питаться нисходящей
Энергией
и, как следствие, существования без приема физической пищи —
результат радикальной трансформации физиологических процессов на
клеточном уровне.
(Retaining
of the metabolism (exchange of substances) in Zinaida
Baranova's body tells us that nature does not have established
laws claimed by orthodox (modern) scientists.)
Сохранение
метаболизма (обмена веществ) в теле Барановой говорит о том, что в
природе не существует, как утверждают ученые-ортодоксы, раз и навсегда
установленных законов.
(This
woman moved to a different level of existence - the classical medicine
is unable to register this.)
Эта женщина перешла на иной уровень существования —
классическая медицина зафиксировать его не в состоянии.
(The
physical body itself gained a new physiology; updated cells operate in
a different energy exchange environment.)
Само
физическое тело обрело новую физиологию, обновленные клетки
функционируют в иной энергообменной среде.
(As
a result, all the physiological and biochemical standards adopted by
the medical society are collapsing.)
В результате рушатся все физиологические и биохимические
нормы, принятые в медицине.
(Zinaida
Baranova, gradually moving to "pranic food" (this way the lifestyle of
Sun-eaters is called too), she got rid of diseases
such as ischemia, tachycardia, angina
and radiculitis.)
Зинаида
Баранова, постепенно перейдя на «праническое
питание» (так
еще называют образ жизни солнцеедов), навсегда избавилась от таких
болезней, как ишемия, тахикардия, стенокардия и радикулит.
("This
is not surprising" - said Alexander Kliuev:"In fact the cause of all
bodily ailments is just our inability to grasp Penetrating Evolutionary
Energy (because we stuff ourselves with food and drink: it's a vicious
circle, LM)."
«Это
неудивительно, — считает Александр Клюев, — "Bедь
причиной
всех телесных недугов является как раз наша неспособность усвоить
нисходящую Энергию".
(And
this is despite the fact that it (The Evolutionery Energy) is trying to
penetrate us with all its Might.)
И
это при том, что она всеми правдами и неправдами пытается в нас
проникнуть.
(Sometimes it (the
Evolutionary Energy)
succeeds, but we are not capable to fully use it (the food and drink is
on the way, LM): that is causing
psychological and somatic diseases.) Временами это ей
удается, однако мы не в состоянии ее полностью усвоить —
отсюда психические и соматические заболевания.
(I
think in the future, living without food and
fluid intake
will be an ordinary business.)
Я
думаю в будущем, проживание без приема пищи и жидкости станет обычным
делом.
(If
this Energy is "fully" working (an example of Zinaida Baranova shows
that it is
possible), then it will not only supply the organism with "food", but
also fully replace our oxygen intake.")
Если
Энергия будет работать «по полной программе» (а на
примере
Барановой видно, что это возможно), то она сможет не только обеспечить
организм «пищей», но и полностью заменит нам
кислородное
дыхание».

12 years without
eating
(12
years without eating. Is it really
possible?)
12 лет без
eды Неужели
это возможно?
(There are 30
thousand of these kind of people worldwide.)
Их
30 тысяч по всему свету.
(And they are sure, that
someday all people will become of the same kind, Sun-eaters.)
И
они уверены,
что когда-нибудь все люди станут такими же.
(Science can
not explain this phenomenon.)
Наука не может объяснить этот
феномен.
(Recently,
an Australian woman came to Russia,
who was calling
herself by a mysterious name, Jazmuhin. She visited the
capital and Krasnodar, where she met our famous "Sun-eater" Zinaida
Baranova, who's been living
without food and water for five
years. She gave a
series of lectures.)
Недавно
в Россию приезжала австралийка, называющая себя загадочным именем
Джасмухин. Посетила столицy и Краснодар, где встретилась с нашей
знаменитой «солнцеедкой» Зинаидой Барановой, пять
лет
живущей без еды и воды, и прочитала ряд лекций.
(The
point is that Jazmuhin herself, in her words, has not been eating for
12
years.)
Дело в том, что
сама Джасмухин, по ее словам, ничего не ест на протяжении 12 лет.
(Her
(Jazmuhin) credibility, authority is tremendously high in esoteric
circles, including the circles of "Sun-eaters".)
В эзотерических кругах, в том числе среди солнцеедов, ее
авторитет необычайно велик.
(Only for the
readers of "AiF", denying
all other publications, Jazmuhin responded to their questions about the
secret of the phenomenon of Sun-eating. And why the science is so
powerless to brake it, and to many other questions.)
Только
для читателей
«АиФ», отказав всем другим изданиям, ДЖАСМУХИН
ответила на
вопросы, в чем секрет феномена солнцеедства. Почему
наука перед этим
бессильна, и на многие другие.
(What does your name mean?)
Что
означает ваше имя?
(It's
spiritual
translation is an aroma, which is continuing forever.) Его
духовный перевод: аромат, длящийся вечно.
(Once this word
just came to my
mind from somewhere inside of me.)
Это слово просто когда-то
пришло мне в голову, откуда-то изнутри.
(Names have
very strong vibrations.)
Имена обладают очень сильными вибрациями.
(Esoterics
like the word "vibration".) Эзотерики
любят слово «вибрации».
(The
dictionary says that they are "mechanical
vibrations". That something is fluctating.)
(dictionaries are
Controlled Media, LM) В словаре сказано, что это
«механические
колебания».
Что колеблется что-то.
(You can call it a
fluctuation or a resonance.) Вы
можете называть это колебаниями или резонансом.
(Everyone, his/her
brain that is, is just
like a radio.)
Каждый человек, то есть его мозг, —
словно радио.
(We are
constantly
transmitting signals in the universe and perceiving them. And atoms are
vibrating. ) Мы
постоянно
передаем сигналы во Вселенную и принимаем их. А вибрируют
атомы.
(Reducing the
frequency of vibration of the
brain, say using meditation at 0,5-3 vibrations per second, you can
change the condition of the body and its possibilities.)
Понижая частоту вибраций мозга, скажем, с помощью
медитации до 0,5–3 колебаний в секунду, можно менять
состояние
тела и его возможности.
(A person gains not only the
ability to live without food, feeding
on the Energy of Space.) Человек
обретает не только способность обходиться без пищи, питаясь энергией
космоса.
(There is also telepathy,
clairvoyance, and other phenomenon.) Есть
еще телепатия, ясновидение, другие феномены.
("We are
getting energy from Cosmos." Jazmuhin is leading international
"Movement of Awakening of a more Positive Society")
"Мы
питаемся космосом". ДЖАСМУХИН
возглавляет международное «Движение пробудившегося общества
добра».
(She is not
staying at home, but
constantly touring the world with lectures and seminars. She arrived to Russia for a second
time.)
Она не сидит дома, а постоянно
ездит по миру с лекциями и семинарами. В Россию
приехала во второй раз.
(A particular
concern for Jazmuhin is ... the struggle against starvation.)
Особой
заботой Джасмухин является… борьба с голодом.
(As an
alternative, she suggested pranic nutrition or
sunlight's nourishment.)
В качестве
альтернативы она предлагает праническое питание, или питание солнечным
светом .
(When people
hear about "Sun-eaters", they are nodding knowingly :
charlatan, quack of course! This can
not be true! )
Когда люди слышат о солнцеедах, они понимающе кивают:
шарлатаны,
понятное дело. Такого
ведь не может быть.
(Again, we do
not know our capabilities. The human
body is able
to transform and get energy by other means, through the atoms.)
Повторюсь,
мы не знаем своих возможностей. Человеческий организм способен
трансформироваться и
получать энергию другим способом, через атомы.
(We are
simply fed differently: we eat particles of Cosmos.)
Нас
просто кормят по-другому, мы едим частицы космоса.
(Someone says
that we eat light; somebody says that we eating the Universal Field. You say
"Sun-eaters"? Let it be so.)
Кто-то
говорит, что мы едим
свет, кто-то — что мы питаемся вселенским полем. Вы
говорите
«солнцееды»? Пусть будет
так.
(But there is
a science
that has established long ago, that the body cannot live without the
protein, fat, carbohydrates, trace elements ...)
Но есть наука, которая давно установила, что организм не
может жить без
белков, жиров, углеводов,
микроэлементов…
(Exploring
ways of life of Sun-eaters is also
a science, but it works on another level.)
(The
research of the way of life of "Sun-eaters" is also a science, but it
is operating on another level. It is not examining the physical fabric.)
Изучение образа жизни солнцеедов — это тоже наука,
но она
работает на ином уровне. Она исследует вовсе не
материю.
(For
scientists, to understand this experience, they need to expand their
consciousness, to move it into a higher vibration.
And they will see life in
another way.)
Чтобы ученые могли понять этот опыт,
им надо расширить свое сознание, перевести его в высокие вибрации. И
они сами увидят жизнь
по-другому.
The Reporter:
(And maybe one can simply lock the "Sun-eater" in a locked house and
watch how she/he lives there.)
Jazmuhin:
(These experiments already took place.) А
можно просто запереть солнцееда в замкнутом помещении и посмотреть,
как он там проживет. Такие
опыты были.
(In India,
lives
a man who has been locked up for 411 days under the continuing
supervision. It took a
quarter cup
of water a day, and that's all.) В
Индии живет мужчина,
который просидел 411 дней под непрестанным наблюдением. Он
принимал четверть стакана воды в день, и это все.
The
Reporter:(Have you ever been locked up?)
Jazmuhin:
(No, nevertheless, I had all kinds of tests and examinations. They have
shown that I am incredibly healthy.)
А вам приходилось сидеть взаперти? Нет,
тем не менее, я прошла всевозможные виды проверок и обследований. Они
показали, что
я невероятно здорова.
Jazmuhin:
(And these were researches done in official, registed, medical
institutions,
not with those who were called paranormal.)
И
это были обследования в официальных институтах, а не у тех, кого
называют экстрасенсами.
(Sun-eaters
have been examined worldwide. And
scientists can not explain this
phenomenon.)
Солнцеедов
обследуют по всему миру. Solntseedov examined И ученые не
могут объяснить этот феномен.
(They have been scanning the
brain
and found, that the pineal gland (the place, where the Third Eye, used
to be) operates in a different
way. It becomes very big and
shiny. ) Они
сканируют мозг и видят, что эпифиз ( та самая
шишковидная железа, где раньше, как считается, располагался третий
глаз, Д. П. ) функционирует по-другому. Он становится
очень большим и сияющим.
The Reporter:
(So? Lights, as a
light bulb?
Jazmuhin: (Oh, no! (long laughs) We are
talking about the
scanning, about the X-ray images.)
То
есть? Горит, как лампочка? О
нет! ( Долго смеется. ) Мы же говорим о сканировании, о
рентгеновских снимках.
Jazmuhin:
(You wouldn't notice the pineal gland of a normal
person straight away in the
pictures. We have it
(the pineal gland) 20 times
brighter. This is
because it receives power from the Sun.)
У
обычных людей вы не сразу заметите эпифиз
на снимках. У нас он в 20 раз ярче. Это потому, что
он получает питание от солнца.
Jazmuhin: ("I
felt my destination".)
Jazmuhin, herself, gives impression of a
radiant person.
Sitting opposite me, she is flashing white Hollywood smiles and says
smoothly as if trying to insert every frase into the heads of those who
surround her, and asks again: "You see?")

this is very
interesting, but the fact, that Zynaida refuses to have

Yea... Sun Eaters are found
everywhere... including Ukraine
Friday, June 23, 2006
http://onlyinukraine.blogspot.com/2006/06/yea-sun-eaters-are-found-everywhere.html
Nikolai Dolgoruky calls himself a 'sun eater.' He lives in the Dnepr
region of Ukraine.
He feeds only on prana and solar energy. After arriving in a village
where he lives, I saw a barefooted man standing on the porch. He was
wearing a bright orange dress with the sun embroidered on the chest.
The man's face looked otherworldly, his eyes glistened, and a smile
crossed his face. He moved about easily and seemed to be barely
touching the ground. He did not have no sunken cheeks nor bags under
his eyes. His skin was glowing from inside as if he were a happy
teenaged girl.
It is obvious that Nikolai has become a qualified interviewee. He fell
into the habit of giving interviews on a regular basis. A Japanese TV
crew left the village a few days ago. They shot a film about Nikolai.
'The reason why I've become a 'sun eater' has nothing to do with
cutting down on grocery bills,' says Nikolai with a smile. 'This is a
spiritual way. Why do all the religions of the world have Lent? It is
designed to cleanse the soul and encourage the human being to think
more of things lofty and get rid of morally low desires. Saying goodbye
to food means a farewell to many carnal dependencies. I consume space
energy in place of natural foodstuffs. But I had continually fasting
for 14 years before I stopped coarse food altogether. I ate only kasha,
vegetables, fruits and nuts. Then I switched to liquid foods -
vegetable broths, cocoa and hot chocolate. And one day it came as a
stunning revelation that I can do without any food. Since then I've
been living on a strict diet of tea with honey and some boiling water
with fish soup spices. I use only charged water that is taken off the
stovetop one moment before it boils. I drink about ten cups a day. I
get the rest of my food from the Sun and Cosmos. I can even feel my
blood getting rejuvenated.
'Do you mean you stop feeling hunger as you stare at the sun?'
'I stopped feeling hunger a long time ago. The sun charges me with
energy as if I were a battery. Someday everybody will be capable of
running on solar energy. The trees and flower exist because of
photosynthesis. And man is part of nature. There is a huge release of
energy in the human body once man gets rid of coarse food. It's the
energy that was previously used for digestion. Man reaches a completely
different level of mental and physical development.'
**************************************
LIGHT
That Gives Life
http://www.ufo-info-contact.org/sat2/sat2-015en.htm
The Sun is the source of life on Earth, there is no doubt about it. But
can man live without food, exclusively on solar energy? Yes, he can! A
healer from Zhaporozhie called Nikolai Dolgorukiy is an example of
this.
Suneater from Solnechnaya Str. (Sun St.)
Among people who are interested in bioenergy, extrasensory things and
magic as well as in alternative scientific literature there is
information about individuals who eat nothing but sunlight and Cosmic
energy. They are referred to as suneaters. In the country of yogis
India there are many of them, in the USA and Europe there are some, in
the CIS there are only a few.
That's why it is even more surprising that there is a suneater in
Zhaporozhie who lives (what a fantastic coincidence!) at 1 Solnechnaya
Str. The yard of his house, facing the Red Water and an intersection of
several streets of Zeleniy Yar, can be seen from afar thanks to a
number of pyramidal structures. The pyramids built by Nikolai
Dolgorukiy have healing properties and are energetically connected with
similar constructions in Egypt and on Mars. But we are not going to
speak of them now, we are going to speak of this unique person who has
learnt to live without food. Nikolai was born in Zhaporozhie in 1957,
graduated from a technical college, worked in the North. He dedicated
himself to spiritual perfection at the age of 33. But it had begun long
before that. Nikolai Dolgorukiy: When I was 10, my brother died; at the
age of 16 I lost my father. These tremendous losses were leading me to
the understanding of some truth, to something I could not
grasp…
In 1972 I came upon a rare copy of a book on hatha yoga. And I started
working on myself. I read, collected newspaper and magazine clips,
studied oriental martial arts, phytotherapy, psychology… In
1993
I graduated from the University majoring in Bioenergy Information
Science and Psychocorrection. Since 1989 I kept a light Christian fast
- I did not eat animal food, I ate mostly vegetables. And since 25
August 2003 I have not eaten anything…
"The sun, air and water are my only food"
- What do you live on?
- I gaze at the sun, for more than five hours a day. My record is 13
hours…
I go barefoot, sleep outside or in one of the pyramids both in summer
and in winter. At first I drank milk and cacao, now I drink only
"charged" water (almost boiling) and dissolve a teaspoonful of honey in
the cup. I drink up to ten such cups a day. That's it! The energy of
the Sun and Space and the capacities of our body regarding
photosynthesis are enough for me. I even feel my blood renovate.
- Do you have any health problems?
- At first I lost 5-7 kg, but now my weight is OK. I do hard physical
work (during our conversation Nikolai was digging a pit to build a new
energy chamber). I always ride a bike. There are no problems.
- What about your eyes? One can lose his eyesight gazing at the sun for
many hours, can't he?
- As you can see, I have excellent eyesight, I can read well. It is
important to do everything gradually...
- But books are not enough to become a suneater, right?
- One must have an aspiration... All my actions are guided... I get
information about what to do and how to do it as if through an
interface...
- But you also have a gift...
- Everyone has a gift. Anyone can become a suneater. I don't have
secrets. I am eager to undergo a medical checkup that will allow to
study the phenomenon of suneating. In fact, I am happy that there are
researchers. I am willing to share my knowledge but not with idle
curious people, I am willing to share it with those who want to change
themselves, those who "aspire"…
Portal...
According to Nikolai Dolgorukiy, such portal opened on his plot of land
thanks to years of hard work. No wonder that every plant grows wildly
around it, and a person who visits this place is cured. Nikolai assures
that it is not he who heals but the higher powers. His only task is to
create conditions for this. With this purpose he has built pyramids and
energy chambers (whose shape activates the Space energy regenerating
all the human organs and cells). But not only for this.
Man must clarify the Earth around him. In this case life will change
for the better. "That's exactly what I do: I build pyramids, plant
trees along the Red Water, says Nikolai. The humankind will become
closer to Nature if we unite our efforts…"
The most amazing thing is that environmental problems do not prevent
Nikolai doing what he does: they can be solved. On the contrary:
Zhaporozhie has been created for contact with... in particular it can
be explained by the presence of Khortitsa, by the fact that magicians,
Cossacks lived here once; they were probably ancestors of Nikolai
Dolgorukiy and passed their gift on to him. Native land and the Sun
feed man with their power. The only thing one must have for this is
love. And if we think it over, that's the way it should be!
Sergei Cherniy
The opinion of scientists: suneaters exist!
Suneaters are people who willingly decided to stop eating with the help
of stomach and feed on the energy of sunlight through skin. Such people
have not had a drop in their mouth for years.
Nevertheless, they do not look exhausted or thin; on the contrary, they
are full of strength and energy. Among them there is Indian Manek who
has not eaten and drunk for over a year and has been observed by
doctors, a woman from Australia Jasmahin who has been abstaining from
eating for over 8 years (!!!) and a researcher from Russia Aleksandr
Komarov. His record is two years.
On the eve of 2001 the newspaper "The Times of India" wrote about an
incredible case. A 64-year old mechanic Hira Ratan Manek had been
living without food for a year. He had not eaten a crumb and had drunk
only boiled water. The Indian feeds on… the solar energy.
This case is not invented, it is a fact officially confirmed by the
doctors of the Institute of Many Purpose Therapy at the International
Health Center (Ahmedabad) and by the specialist of the Jainist
Association of Doctors who started observing the suneater's health two
days before the beginning of striving. The experiment lasted for 411
days. The engineer mechanic did not eat anything during this period.
A new race of humans who do not eat anything, a New race or even a new
species is born.
It has been estimated that there up to 8-10 thousand individuals on
Earth who eat the energy of the Sun. And they can help us see where the
human evolution is going. Man is not turning into an insect with a
small body and a huge head: he is becoming similar to… a
plant.
In the sense that he is beginning to digest the energy of light
directly just like representatives of the flora. There are already
thousands and thousands of suneaters on the planet - forerunners of a
new species.
Would any of those who "see the future" have dared suppose that the
sixth race could be the race of suneaters. No, clairvoyants and
futurologists did not think about it. Simple scientists realized it. In
1880 the Russian scientist Sergei Podolinskiy pointed out that labor is
the only kind of work that does not spend energy; on the contrary, it
concentrates it. All the working machines get out of order and break
down because they are unable to change the broken parts by themselves.
To become a perfect machine from the thermodynamic point of view, i.e.
not to waste energy during work but to collect it, we must refuse to
use the solar energy accumulated by plants and get connected to the Sun
directly.
In 1925 the same thought was expressed by Vladimir Vernadskiy in the
article "Autotrophism of Humanity". As long as people depend on the
rest of flora and fauna as far as food is concerned, they won't be
well-provided for, thought the great scientist. In reality it won't be
man anymore but another intelligent creature…
The materials have been prepared by Sergei Cherniy.
...Gazing at the Sun, he burns negative energies inside that's why he
feels vigorous and healthy. And the food he takes in is sufficient for
his body to make him feel healthy. Healthy way of life is also very
important".

The
Story of a Sun-eater
Wed
Mar 29, 2006 1:17 AM
http://www.kyivweekly.com/?art=1143586217
Blue
eyes is the first sign of sun eaters
There
are
presently over 30 sun eaters in Ukraine. The majority of them live in
the Ukrainian industrial city of Zaporizhzhia. The rest are residents
of Kyiv. 49-year-old Mykola Dolgorukiy, an ideological leader and the
first Ukrainian sun eater, lives in Zaporizhzhia.
Sun eaters are easily recognized – they have extremely rich
blue
eyes. “The eyes obtain such a color when you look at the sun
and
sky for a very long time,” explains Dolgorukiy, adding,
“The eyes obtain heavenly power and are purified from
everything
mundane.”
A long time ago, Dolgorukiy was a basic engineer working at a plant.
Despite his run-of-the-mill job, he was always drawn to everything
unusual and mysterious. He studied the history of religions, and
collected rare articles about yoga and Buddhism from Soviet newspapers.
In the 1980s, he became a vegetarian. “At that time, becoming
a
vegetarian was a major feat,” says Dolgorukiy, adding,
“I
did not know or hear anything about sun eating back then. After 14
years of being a vegetarian I finally realized that my body did not
need standard food and was prepared for sun eating.”
Dolgorukiy
says that the first several months are the most difficult in sun
eating. In the beginning, after he stopped consuming roughage, he drank
vegetable broths, juices and cocoa. “In the beginning, I had
nightmares: in my dreams I saw buns and borscht and sensed the smell of
freshly sliced pork fat,” he said smiling. “I
stopped
reacting to the thought of food long ago and can be in any company at a
restaurant now. Food does not evoke any feelings inside me. Sun and
water – green tea with honey – are my basic sources
of
energy,” says Dolgorukiy.
The less you eat, the better you live
Dolgorukiy explains his ability of getting along without food.
“The human race has known alternative ways of living since
long
ago. Ancient Egyptian pagan priests, and monks of the Kyivo-Pecherska
Lavra have experimented with these. Earlier, this was a path for only
“the chosen ones”, but today many people have such
an
opportunity,” he said as he finished his fifth cup of tea
that
day. Dolgorukiy said that after he abstained from having food, be began
assuming different abilities. “First, I felt the gift of a
healer. I heal many people now. Second, I began to feel the speed of my
thoughts. As soon as I think about something, it immediately comes to
life. Third, when a person abstains from consuming roughage, the great
amount of energy required for digestion is freed up. It automatically
extends human life, purifies the body’s cells and organs and
your
consciousness becomes clearer. A person thus reaches a new level of
intellectual and physical development,” says Dolgorukiy. KW
did
not try to test the “new intellectual level” of the
49-year
old sun eater, but he easily did 30 push ups with one hand to prove his
physical strength.
Only Japanese have shown interest so far, Dolgorukiy has
failed to
pique the interest of Ukrainian scientists in his abilities. Last
summer, however, Japanese researchers came to visit him. The
researchers collect information about phenomenal people around the
world and make documentaries about them.
Upon the request of the Japanese, the sun eater went through a full
medical examination at the city hospital in Zaporizhia. The doctors did
not find any problems, and the only thing they noticed was that his
stomach was a bit smaller than in other people. As for the rest,
doctors came to the conclusion that Dolgorukiy’s physical age
corresponds to a 30-year old.
The sun eater also visited several psychotherapists, who found no
psychic disorders in his consciousness. Japanese researchers recorded
13 hours of continuously “eating” the sun with open
eyes.
Dolgorukiy, however, says that 13 hours is not the limit. He warns,
however, that those who want to switch to nutrition from the sun need
to be careful, since looking at the sun without proper training is
dangerous for one’s eyesight.
It is best to begin with 30 seconds of contemplation early in the
morning and evening, when the sun is not as hot as at noontime.
“Some Ukrainian doctors, when they are told about me, say
that
what I do is physically impossible. It is easier for them to deny it
instead of studying me,” says Dolgorukiy.
By the way, scientists from Moscow are interested in his phenomenon. He
recently went there to the Institute of Alternative Abilities of the
Human Brain. Dolgorukiy explains nutrition from the sun as follows:
“Accumulation of energy in the brain happens through the
eyes,
then it spreads to the hypothalamus and thyroid glands and then through
the entire body. Everything happens on the molecular level.”
Winter is a difficult season for sun eaters, as there are very few
sunny days. So in the summer time, such people have to accumulate
reserves for the future.
Medicinal pyramid
This amazing individual is an ideal family man. His spouse Lyubov and
daughter Maria support him in all his exploits. Lyubov Dolgorukaya is
also known in Zaporizhzhia as a folk healer, though she is not yet
ready to follow in her husband’s footsteps, as she prefers
the
standard vegetarian diet. Their six-year-old daughter Maria also has
her own diet.
In their hometown, the Dolgorukiy family is known not only because of
the unique head of the family, but also because they live on
Solnechnaya St. in the city center, which coincidentally means
“sunny” in English. There is a strange construction
near
their house that resembles the pyramids in Egypt. Dolgorukiy built it
with keeping to special proportions. He says that he gains strength
when spending time inside. This is where he lives in the winter and
summer and treats the local residents. “Maria was conceived
inside this pyramid. Already in the first months of pregnancy Lyubov
could communicate with their daughter through thoughts. By the way, the
daughter chose a name for herself while still inside her
mother’s
womb. My wife gave birth in there,” says Dolgorukiy.
As of late, he has been paying visits to Kyiv quite often. Kyiv
followers have bought land near Kyiv and are building a huge pyramid
there. Dolgorukiy says that inside such a pyramid he can even cure
President Yushchenko by cleansing his body of the dioxin he was
poisoned with.
P.S. In one of the novels by the famous sci-fi writer Ray Bradbury
there is a line: “The old man was lying and drinking the
sun.” Earlier, it just seemed like a beautiful metaphor, but
today it is gaining new meaning. Perhaps the writer foresaw the future
of mankind?
Background
The phenomenon of Dolgorukiy is not so unique. There is a woman in
Russia named Zinayida Baranova with 5 years of experience eating the
sun. The 76-year-old Pralad Djani from India has not eaten anything for
68 years. He was studied by scientists for 411 days and drank only half
a glass of water during this entire period. Finally, a 45-year-old
Australian woman named Jasmuhin has been living without food for 13
years.
Commentary:
Natalia Sinitsyna
Psychoanalyst at the Eden Center:
“In 1880 Russian scientist Sergei Podolinsky said that work
is
the only type of labor that does not waste energy. On the contrary, it
concentrates energy. In order to turn ourselves into a thermodynamic
machine without wasting energy in the work process, we can refuse to
get our energy from food and directly “plug into the energy
of
the Sun”. Similar thoughts were expressed by Vladimir
Vernadsky
in 1925 in the article “A Human Being’s
Autotrophy”.
He believed that a human being can do without the plant and animal
world. But it will no longer be a human being, but some other kind of
intelligent being with a totally different level of physical and mental
development. An inner mechanism for the transition to a life-sustaining
ability from using alternative sources of energy lies somewhere deep
inside in the future of human development. Probably, with the advent of
people like this we might be able to partially resolve some certain
ecological problems since a person will be less dependent on the
quality of water and food..."

Shanin: Sun Eaters- Plain stupid or actually real?
Alina Shanin, Contributing Writer
Issue date: 2/14/07
"Sun Eater" - a person who lives on solar energy and prana, without
food and sometimes with no water; the person gets charged with sunlight
like a battery.
Many believe it will lead people to immortality and total cleansing.
There are about 3,000 people practicing this way of life, according to
New York's RTVi Russian news network and online sources. This
phenomenon has been studied and participants have been observed, but it
is still mind-boggling. Can people really live off solar energy and
nothing else? Is yoga that powerful?
It seems that Ukraine is the largest possessor of this practice, so a
lot of my information came from websites and the Russian news.
Originating from Ukraine, this is fascinating to me because during my
10 years there, I have never heard of anything like this until I moved
to the States.
Regardless, let's presume people are really able to live like plants
(even worse than plants, in some cases)... How many have died trying to
achieve this level of spirituality?
Apparently, it takes years to reach immortality and invincibility.
Before becoming a sun eater, one woman was a vegetarian for 20 years.
Then, she gradually started to slow on her food intake until she just
stopped. Sounds unbelievable, but she has lived this way for years.
(RTVi news)
There was a report done about another Ukrainian lady who found this
ability on accident: her whole family, husband and kids, tragically
died and she decided not to live either. So she stopped eating and
drinking. Weirdly, time went by, but she kept living. After many years,
she is still here.
It took another man 14 years to achieve this power. He also stopped
eating meats and ate totally organic, natural foods like kasha and tea.
Then he moved on to liquid food and eventually just boiling, or almost
boiling water!
All this sounds supernatural, but not completely impossible. Chinese
monks are able to possess incredible strengths and mind powers, so
maybe this isn't so surreal?
The United States government hides a lot of supernatural activities and
finding from the public; probably, because of fear for the people and
what they can do. But European countries, while withholding knowledge
of political activity and freedom of press and speech, allow people to
talk about supernatural phenomena openly.
I would love to see this looked into and tested out. The people on TV
looked completely normal...and to tell you the truth, I expected them
to be kind of anorexic or something.

(Starvation is a Savior)
Голод
— спаситель
For some people it's a good start:
BELYAEV
(Vitaly
Filippovich Wooden of Kirov
Region is confident that he recovered from serious illness due to
the starvation).
Виталий
Филиппович Деревянных из Кировской области уверен, что излечился от
тяжелой болезни благодаря голоданию.
(Planning to
visit him, I expected to see a worn-out by the starvation,
feeble,
old man. But he proved to be an energetic and a sociable man
in his prime.)
ОТПРАВЛЯЯСЬ
к нему в гости, я ожидала увидеть изможденного голодовками немощного
старца. А он оказался энергичным и общительным
мужчиной в полном расцвете сил.
(He
is a little bit over sixty, but looks much younger. He recalls
reluctantly how he was
diagnosed
with something terrible
in 1988. He
hit the cancer
clinic, got a disability.) Ему
чуть за шестьдесят, но выглядит гораздо моложе. О страшном
диагнозе,
который ему поставили в 1988 году, вспоминает неохотно: попал в
онкологический диспансер, получил инвалидность.
(After
realizing that he has nothing to lose, he decided to try an experiment.
He diligently studied alternative medicinal books: "Self-Curing"
(lechebnik) by
Kureny,
1892 edition and "Miracle Fasting" by Paul Bragg.)
Поняв,
что терять ему нечего, Деревянных решился на эксперимент. Для
этого проштудировал лечебник Куренного 1892 года издания и
«Чудо
голодания» Поля Брэгга.
(It
took place at the branch of the Pulmo-Oncological ward of Kirov's
Regional
Hospital, where medical fasting was practiced.)
Было это в
пульмонологическом отделении Кировской областной больницы, где
практикуют лечебное голодание.
(At
first, he said it was scary and difficult, but I endured two weeks
of distilled water and cleansing enemas. Since then,
Vitaly Filippovich has been practicing fasting for 14-years already.)
Поначалу, говорит, было страшно и тяжело, но все-таки
выдержал две
недели на одной дистиллированной воде и очистительных клизмах. С
тех пор Виталий Филиппович занимается голоданием уже 14-й год,
приурочивая это дело к многодневным православным постам.
(He
is usually preparing for a couple of months, giving the
body a command for a specific term. Vitaly's Personal Record is 30 days
without any food.) Пару
месяцев готовится, дает организму
установку на определенный срок. Личный рекорд Деревянных
—
30 дней без пищи.
(Vitaly
Filippovich lives on subsistence
farming, growing many vegetables and makes a lot of juice, which he is
using after fasting; collects berries
and medicinal herbs in
forest;
makes "coffee" from dandelion roots; keeps away from pharmacies and
hospitals.) Живет
Виталий Филиппович натуральным хозяйством, выращивает много овощей и
делает из них соки, на которые налегает после голодания. Собирает в
лесу ягоды и лекарственные травы. Варит
«кофе» из корней одуванчика.
Аптеки и больницы обходит стороной."

I
know that
starvation experiments
have been performed by Intelligence/Secret Societies/Religions on
millions of people since their childhood in all countries for thousands
of years to achieve enlightment, but NWO wanted all these experiments
to be controlled only by them. When someone, herself/himself were
trying to become a Sun-eater independently and get all the benefits of
not eating poisonous food/water, they would be prosecuted by police,
court cases, psychiatric institutions, church, media, their relatives
and neighbours in every country, because these experements were not
controlled by the negatives. Well, nothing
is
new then? That
forced people 'to go underground' and now we have a huge movement of
people who wants to flow with Time and out of it eventually to the
level of no Time/Space, to new vibration, new worlds. This movement is
growing and I help it to grow: I am a Sun-eater, though I am not a
metaphysician, religious or any cult/occult follower! Here are
some more articles on Sun-eating from different websites.

Hira Ratan
Manek - Not Eaten Food for 7 years
Bineeta Mishra
In an exclusive interview with India Post Shri Hira Ratan Manek said
that he has not eaten food since 1995. World famous doctors, engineers,
scientists etc. are engaged in studying this phenomena to find out how
Manek has sustained himself only on water, and on a little tea and
coffee for short duration's.
Shri Hira Ratan Manek, a mechanical engineer from Calicut, Kerala, says
"this is not something new or that I have discovered it." This is a
scientific ritual - the Surya Namaskar, originating from Gayathri
mantra, Bala - Atibala, Ramayan mantra which is gaining popularity and
world acceptance.
(Of course it would be popular and accepted with such food prices and
changes in the frequency of the planet, which never stop changing, LM)
The scientific technique practiced by Manekji is simple - deriving his
energy from the cosmic source or the solar energy of the sun. The sun
being the most powerful source, has been used for energy by sages and
rishis since ancient times including Tibetan Lamas and rishis. Mankind
is also using solar energy for running solar cookers, solar heaters,
solar cars etc. he says. Similarly Manekji has converted himself into a
solar cooker.
The brain and the mind are the most powerful recipients in the human
body. The retina and the pineal gland (the third eye) are equipped with
photoreceptor cells and may be considered photosensitive organs he
says. As the plant kingdom thrives on chlorophyll and photosynthesis,
which is directly dependent on the sun, similarly some kind of
photosynthesis or photo analysis must be taking place when we
assimilate the sun's energy.
There is a pathway from the retina to the hypothalamus called the
retinohypothalamic tract. The method adopted by Manekji is to initially
look at the early morning sun for a few seconds and every week to
increase by a few seconds which should ultimately reach several
minutes. After
about 3 months he says the brain gets charged and mental
strength increases that heals fears and many psychosomatic diseases.
At the end of 6 months all physical disease go away he says. And
gradually after 8 to 9 months there is a decline in hunger, which
ultimately disappears. This is the utilization of energy mathematics
and is different from food or calorie mathematics he said. He calls
this micro or mind utilization food.
Manekji says most people utilize only 3 to 10% of their brains, but he
has utilizes 25% of his brainpower. Manekji says he is the only person
to come forward and has attracted medical attention. CT scans and MRI
scan reports say that his 66-year-old pineal gland is comparable to a
man in his 20s.
He also says one should walk barefoot on mother earth for 45minutes
every day to recharge the energy in the body.
He has 25,000 people around the world that have started to practice his
technique. According to him food is a secondary source of solar energy.
He is also planning to write a book. At present he is in the US where a
team of medical doctors are going to conduct tests. In the mean time he
gives several discourses to explain on a scientific level how he has
sustained himself for seven years and says will continue.

This
rather bizarre story appears in the Sydney Morning Herald in Australia.
It claims that there is a man who can obtain energy from looking at the
sun for an hour each day and drinking water. No food. It also purports
that NASA is going to be 'studying' him.
http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2003/06/29/1056825280652.html
"Mr
Manek said he "eats through his eyes" in the evening, when the sun's
ultraviolet rays are least harmful. He and his wife claim the technique
is totally scientific. However, doctors warn that staring at the sun
can make you blind."
(this is such
Bullshit, I
look at the Sun every day and it doesn't make me blind,
besides
most of the time you don't see the sun at all, just clouds. Do it
gradually, LM)
I
thought you acquired eye damage when looking at the sun because of
intense visible light, not ultraviolet rays. Unless his eyes are
'modified' somehow I don't see how this could work. If it is true.
Any
ideas?

A Breatharian
Speaks Out
(from Yahoo.com/group/breatharian/)
Conference Call synopsis for Saturday, February 12, 2005. Part II. Mony
Vital on Immortality. Written by Cara McKennon
Mony Vital is one of about 1,000 people on earth who lives totally on
prana, Light energy. He does not eat food of any kind, nor drink
liquids of any kind, including water, yet he is in perfect health.
His comments were done in first person, so I will write it that way.
These quotes come from notes taken during the conference call.
Quoting. Mony Vital on immortality.
“I don’t eat, I live on Light. I don’t
drink water
even. I live on pranic nourishment If you think you are getting
anything from food, you are totally mistaken. Food is poison, it takes
from your health. You actually get your energy from air.
“Physical things, not living physically immortal, I reject
it. I
don’t have to accept the culture of death. Human beings are
only
a number.
“You receive two certificates in your life: birth certificate
and
a death certificate. From the moment you are born, you buy into the
death culture. You don’t see yourself in the death culture.
From
the moment you are born, you start to die.
“People decide when they will die. It is a slow, painful
process.
People believe they must grow old and die. It controls you, you have no
future, no vision.
“You must have a vision, you must have possibilities, and not
be
bound by the restrictions of earth. I designed my life and the people
around me. I love myself. I am totally into myself.
“You are being controlled-mind controlled. Your conversations
in spirituality have no basis in reality.
“Doing this you are not going to have a brand new body
tomorrow.
You are not going anywhere, unless you accept yourself 100%. Not 99%,
but 100%.
“Our bodies are 90% water, sacs of water. Water is
changeable.
Since water is changeable, you are changeable. You are the ones
creating the symptoms you have.
At this point, Mony was interrupted by Dr. Yu’s presentation.
I will resume the next part when Mony returned.
Michael commented that what we have been living is the old paradigm,
Dr. Yu represents the present paradigm. Mony Vital the new paradigm.
Mony continued. Mony started with some background history.
“I was raised in Israel. From the age of 5 I was taught the
teachings of the Torah, what I am to believe and not to believe. Was I
in or out? As a child I was very confused about what they wanted me to
do.”
He resumed back to where he left off before.
“After every meal, your body has to rest. In some societies,
they
have a siesta, a 2 hour break, after the meal to rest. People eat too
much. It shuts down the system. There is no good food. Your stomach is
the size of your fist. You should eat 1/3 less than you do.
“Change your system. Clean it up. Balancing is cleaning it.
Cleaning it is balancing it. Most people have parasites. If you clean
up your system, you clean up the parasites. The parasites are a
symbiotic relationship. You don’t get cravings for certain
foods,
your parasites get cravings for certain foods and you feed the
parasites when you satisfy your cravings.
“So why feed your parasites? It’s all excuses.
“Your body wants to heal itself. You should never see a
therapist
or doctor. You are buying into the death culture. You should try Tai
Chi, Meditation.
“I tried it all, being a vegetarian, eating only raw fruit,
or all juices. “
When asked how long he had been on prana, he said.
“Five years.” He said something about 21 days. Not
sure in reference to what.
He said,
“After 3 days of not eating, you will not be hungry anymore.
“Learn to be a whole human being. Learn to love yourself
completely.
Loving yourself is very important, and loving everybody else.
“The only love that really matters is loving yourself. Look
inside yourself...
“I never do anything to harm me.
“Who is ready for this change of lifestyle? Everything about
this
world is about eating. It’s the old energy. If you
don’t
eat, you have time for other things. Not eating doesn’t cost
anything, it instead saves lots of money.
“I don’t get invited out much because I
don’t eat their food.
“You can’t buy life force in a can. You
can’t buy it in a pill or plastic bottle. Change is the new
paradigm.
“Think about being alive. Most people can’t see 20
years into the future.
“The most revered man in the world is the Pope. It is not
about
youth, or being happy. He is very old, he’s about religion,
not
living, being in a death culture, a culture of death from A to Z. Like
the movie the Matrix. Go see it, if you haven’t seen it. You
are
living in a matrix, inside the box.
“You are living in the damning of America, and getting dumber
and
dumber. You don’t question, you act like robots. The
controllers
don’t want you to find out you are living in a box they
control.
“The medical community believes in a death culture. In
medical
school, they practice on cadavers, on dead bodies, not on live bodies.
“Homeopathic medicine is imitating traditional
medicine.”
Michael asked Mony how to do this.
Mony’s reply.
“You must love and heal the inner child within with
appreciation,
acknowledgment and love...
“Every morning before you get up, and every night before you
go
to sleep, touch every part of your body, like your hair, face, arms,
legs, stomach, chest, back if you can reach it. Touch it and tell your
body, “I love you.” Do this every morning and you
will have
the best day of your life. You don’t need anyone
else’s
permission to do this.
“Get in your heart. Love every feeling you have. Do not
condemn or criticize yourself.
“Try something different, do this program. Do this for 42
days. It takes that long for change to come about.
“... You must acknowledge the problem.
Your body wants to heal itself, to cleanse itself. If you have
something wrong with your lungs, you won’t stop the problem
by
suppressing it. Monitor what you are doing to your body.
“Accept and love the parts of your body. Detox the body and
allow
it to heal itself. Your body is geared for survival. Most people
can’t hear their body talking to them through their symptoms.
“I choose to feel good. Feelings are important...
Don’t deny the problem. Change it by
acknowledging it ... As long as you don’t acknowledge it,
you will have a misconnection.
“Connect directly to your brain...
Encourage your body to become what you want it to be. Don’t
deny
what problems you have. The body wants to heal itself. By pretending,
you are lying to yourself.
“You can’t fragment your body through religion and
governmental control. Having a belief in the present culture is like
committing suicide, giving your life to a culture that has nothing to
do with you.
Michael asked Mony if visualization would help.
Mony’s reply,
“Yes, use your imagination, have a vision. Put words to the
reality you want. If you can’t see yourself as being healthy,
you
will never be healthy. To get healthy, get a vision of being healthy.
“Hospitals only have a 33% survival rate. It’s not
about life force.
“Change your life style. Do your own healing. See how
beautiful
it is to be alive. You are sick because you choose to be sick.
“Food is the illusion, that it is necessary for
survival.
Mony was asked about soy.
Mony’s reply.
“Soy is poison. Splenda is poison. Both cause pain and
misery.
“Don’t eat too much food. A little will do it.
“Go to my website. Read about how to get cleansed. 40, 50, 60
year olds, clean your intestines. You should do this once a year at
least. It’s good for your eyesight.”
Website: www.energybalancing.com
“Start at the basics. There is no magic bullet.
“Make a decision. You must change your thinking. Pay
attention to
what you eat. Consider how long it will take it to digest.
It’s
waste energy. The longer it takes, the faster it will cause aging.
Eating food is a waste of time and nutrition.
“You never gain one ounce of energy from food. Instead, you
lose
energy because it takes more energy to process food than you get from
it.”
Sonali asked Mony. Paraphrasing. ”How are we to get our
children
to accept this new way of not eating when it’s all around
them,
in their school, social activity, if they don’t eat with the
other children, with their peer groups?”
Mony’s reply.
“The culture is not concerned about your children. They are
considered a consumer. They are part of the productive steps of buying.
They are being imprinted with this death culture. Schools are nothing
more than babysitters. Children don’t learn anything
important.
They have to want to be different. They are a social issue. They buy
into the culture, needing cell phones, stuff, they don’t know
what life is about.
“It is your inner child that is deprived. Let go of
impossibility thinking.
“Home schooling is better than the public school system.
“Baby’s are put on soy formula. It’s like
poison.
Baby food is bad for babies. Every food in your culture is bad for
people. It’s all nonsense.
“Drinking a glass of orange juice in the morning will ruin
your
day because it will play havoc with your blood sugar levels.
It’s
worse than drinking coffee in the morning.
Mony gave a toll free number. 888-225-7501
He said he would be going to Thailand soon and would not be around to
answer his phone. In Thailand many would be going into a Dark room
retreat. When asked what that was.
“People go into a dark room without any light for a period of
2
weeks. They drink only water. They go beyond the beyond. Changes every
part of their body and resets their clock. “
Another website given was: www.pysicalimmortality.net
Name of a book was given. “Living on Light.” by
Jasmuheen
When asked about gazing into the sun. Reply.
“I am a breatherian. They are sun gazers. It is wonderful to
look
at the sun before sunset and sunrise. It helps to reset your clock. Do
not do it in the middle of the day.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now,
a big leap towards the ''Breatherians''.. They breath in the ''prana''
(orgone, life energy, etc) through their nose.. In the nose this energy
is assimilated..
Next,
in the pineal gland the energy is distributed to the vital body.. Next,
the vital body takes care of the physical body..
If
this is correct, we all live on life energy, but the only difference is
the way we get the energy:
We
get the life energy from the foods we eat. Breatherians take the life
energy from the air
The
life energy is everywhere around us, also in vacuum.. This is also the
aether, which Einstein denied existed, but he was wrong and he knew it.
Many
people are attempting to get their nutrition and energy from the air or
the sun. Breatherians use deep breathing to nourish their bodies with
energy from the air. Sun Gazers stare at the sun at sunrise and/or
sunset to get nourishment from the Sun."

Underwater
Delivery and Physical Training of Babies by parents
On new links Dolphin-Human Connection
and My Story
there is some information about remarkable Russian researcher, Igor
Charkovsky, who has discovered ways for humans to get close to
dolphins and exchange information and skills between humans and
dolphins. For many years he was training hundreds of human babies,
toddlers and their
parents how to become phisically stronger
and to
overcome fear of water, how to make friends with dolphins; for human
females: how women can give birth with dolphins, how to
use their positive fields for balancing of humans in Russia and other
countries! Dolphins are considered water humans! Some of his baby
gymnastics have been shown in Russian circuses. He
worked independently from any government and they didn't like it. He could
bearly survive financially.
A
few articles on underwater delivery and physical training of babies to
create Future Humans+
Conscious
Birthing and Underwater Birthing
http://www.megaplex.co.za/underwater-birth.htm
(excerpts
from “Ideal Birth” written by Sondra Ray, Rebirther)
Introduction
“Having
rebirthed thousands of people over the last years and researched the
effect of their Birth Trauma on their lives and bodies, I feel more
grateful than ever to have this tool and to be able to share it with
others. I feel proud of my true life's work; and yet I think the
greatest contribution would be to prevent the Birth Trauma in the first
place, rather than trying to heal it later.
I am
thrilled to
think of babies being born who had little or no Birth Trauma. Dr
Leboyer's research has already proved that babies born with the quiet
birth are brighter, healthier, happier-even ambidextrous-and more
joyful. Who would not want this? What mother does not want to imagine
that she could have a whole childbirth experience without pain? We must
start with the thoughts that this is possible.
When
I first heard
about the "Russian Method" of birth, where mothers delivered the baby
right into water, it made total sense to me. The baby has already lived
in fluid for nine months, so being gently expelled into a larger area
of liquid before having to cope with the shocking change of atmosphere
was, it seemed to me, a better way of coming out.”
The
Miracle of Underwater Birth
“When
I
first heard about underwater birth in Russia, I thought it was a
miracle. As a Rebirther, it made total sense to me! It seemed to be
such a great breakthrough in reducing and preventing the Birth Trauma.
In nursing, I had realized that prevention of disease was the answer,
rather than trying to do something when it was often too late. In
Rebirthing I soon saw that although we could do something about
correcting the effects of the Birth Trauma, it made more sense to
prevent it in the first place. I had become very interested in Dr.
Leboyer's work in France (i.e. The “quiet birth,”
where the
baby was put in water right after birth to soothe it, relax it
–
to”rebirth” it right away). But when I heard of
underwater
birth, I was more than excited. I could see unlimited possibilities,
and intuitively I knew how this method would enhance the life of the
new being.
My
spiritual
teacher in Hawaii, who returned from Tibet, where she had gone to see
her Masters, said: “There
are high beings that need to incarnate
now to save the planet and they want to be born underwater.”
I was
delighted to
see my colleagues (Rebirthers) who were pregnant, go for it. They
understood it right away. I was honored that Rebirthers in our
community were the first in the U.S. to try this method, and that I
was chosen to be the godmother of one of these underwater babies. I was
also privileged to go to France and meet Dr. Michael Odent, who has now
done 100 underwater births. (1985, at the time of this book going to
print)”
Igor
Charkovsky
started the Russian Underwater birth technique. The mother sits inside
a glass tank during the last stages of labor. The water level is at her
shoulders. When the infant emerges, he or she floats in the water and
continues to breathe through the umbilical cord for about 10 minutes.
Then the child is removed from the water and the umbilical cord is cut.
The effect of the water is to reduce stress for both mother and child.
Charkovsky has a great belief in the therapeutic value of water. Being
in the water calms the mother and brings the baby into the world in a
placid state. The baby comes from a liquid environment into a liquid
environment. The light is less intense. It is a gradual introduction
into the world.
Results
of underwater birth
Apart
from reduced
trauma, underwater babies do things conventional babies find
impossible. Often after two or three months they can stand and at six
months they can walk. Dr Charkovsky's experiments also show that the
underwater babies, who do a swimming program, lack any fear of water,
are more confident, lack aggression, and are more intelligent than
conventional babies. They rarely fall sick, easily withstand cold and
weather changes, do not have temper tantrums, sleep soundly, and are
physically stronger, more active, brighter an more resourceful than
average."

A Birth
Method Stirs a Debate
http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=990CE7DF133AF93BA35755C0A963958260
In a
promotional
video for Russian water birthing, a woman in an advanced stage of labor
bobs above wind-tossed waves of the Crimean sea. The camera zooms in as
a nude midwife helps the woman to shallow water, where she sprawls
against a rock as her baby's head slowly pushes into the chill, bloody
water.
The
newborn is
fine. The mother, shivering, smiles weakly as she cradles her infant.
Later, on the beach, the midwife swings the newborn by his legs in the
air -- part of the vigorous postpartum exercise endorsed by followers
of Igor Charkovsky, who claims to be the inventor of water birthing.
"This is what makes all the West accuse us," the midwife, Marina
Dadasheva, said dryly as she switched off the videotape. "They say it
is violence."
Water
birthing is
an alternative method of delivery that has small but determined groups
of adherents in Britain, Australia and on the West Coast of the United
States. The French obstetrician Frederick Leboyer pioneered the "birth
without violence" movement by introducing serenity to the delivery room
and placing newborns in warm, soothing water to lessen their trauma.
Others, including the French obstetrician Michel Odent, went further,
adapting underwater delivery -- in hygienic hot tubs or tanks -- in the
1970's and 80's to make labor and delivery more comfortable.
But
nowhere is
water birth as entrenched, controversial and rigorously practiced as in
Russia, a country known for poor obstetric care and a long tradition of
faith healing and mystical cults.
Mr.
Charkovsky's
method uses water less to reduce pain and stress than to increase
endurance both during the birth and later in life. He advocates
ice-water dips for pregnant women and newborns, and insists on
massages, physical training and swimming exercises for babies
immediately after delivery. He claims his techniques will produce
superbabies.
Here,
followers of
Mr. Charkovsky work almost underground, under censure from Government
health authorities. Mr. Charkovsky, 60, has no medical training, and he
started his career as a physical education instructor. But he began
experimenting on animals' adaptability to water in the 1960's and soon
declared that water birth -- immediately followed by intensive physical
and mental training -- would produce a smarter, stronger breed of
children.
Mr.
Charkovsky now
lives in Madison, Wis., and gives lectures on his method. In Soviet
times, he worked in near-secrecy out of his home in Moscow. As
alternative birthing methods began to come into fashion in the West in
the 1970's, the mysterious Russian became a legendary figure in certain
circles in Europe and the United States.
Dina
Kortova, 23,
an aeronautics engineer, is a true believer. She planned to give birth
a year ago in the ocean off Australia, among the dolphins. When she
couldn't get a visa, she delivered her baby in a plastic pool in her
kitchen, with only a neighbor standing by to help. She said her baby
walked at 9 months and could swim almost from birth. "Some people say
he is mad, but I believe in what Charkovsky is doing," she said.
Not
all water
births end happily. Last April, emergency medics were summoned to an
apartment in Moscow where a woman and her husband had tried to deliver
their baby in a bathtub by themselves. The medics pronounced the baby
dead at the scene, and a preliminary hospital report said the child had
drowned. The Moscow prosecutor's office is weighing whether to open a
criminal investigation into the death.
"In
theory, it
could happen," Mrs. Dadasheva said rather tentatively, referring to the
accident. "People who aren't trained and are not ready should not try
it by themselves."
At an
international conference on water birthing last April in Wembley,
England, which attracted about 1,200 participants, Russian followers of
Charkovsky were allowed to attend, but not to be speakers. "They are
afraid of us because we do not work with doctors," said Mrs. Dadasheva,
who was there.
One
of the
organizers, Sheila Kitzinger, a British water-birth advocate, explained
that the Charkovsky contingent was too removed from the mainstream. "I
think what Igor does to babies is absolutely appalling," she said. "His
movement is a cult." Mr. Charkovsky moved to the United States two
years ago after being dismissed as a crackpot by Russian health
officials as well as more conventional water-birth experts and
threatened several times by Russian law enforcement officials with
criminal prosecution. But he says he does not find the United States
more fruitful for his theories. "Americans are just not ready," he said
in a recent telephone interview. "They can deliver babies under water,
but they don't want to make them swim. It's like building an airplane
but not making it fly."
Mr.
Charkovsky
maintains that a baby's body and instincts -- like fear -- must be
reprogrammed at birth. In 1988, he horrified his British fans by
plucking newborns from their mothers' arms to twist their limbs into
what he claimed was a better posture. He showed films of himself
plunging a baby head-first in a hole in a frozen lake. "After that,"
said Dr. Odent, who now heads the Primal Health Research Center in
London, "he stopped being such a legend."
In
Russia,
followers like Mrs. Dadasheva have adapted Charkovsky's theories into a
brisk practice. Like others, she calls herself a "spiritual midwife,"
because she has no training in traditional obstetrics. Mrs. Dadasheva
said that she had delivered 2,000 water babies in the last eight years
and that not one had died during childbirth.
She
said clients
tended to come to her complaining of horrible treatment while giving
birth in Russian hospitals, where medication is scarce, doctors are
overworked and maternity wards are usually crowded, dirty and riddled
with infection.
There
are no
reliable statistics on the number of water births performed in Russia.
Aleksandr Naumov, a water-birth practitioner, estimated there were
close to 1,000 water births in Moscow a year, and 3,000 others across
the former Soviet Union. He said that in Moscow there were more than a
dozen registered water-birthing centers, and that more than 25
professional water-birthing midwives minister to patients at home.
Few
are as loyal
to the full Charkovsky method as Mrs. Dadasheva, who nonetheless has a
more gentle approach than he does. She concedes that not all clients
sign on for the full package. "Sea birth is not for everyone," she
said. "It takes much preparation -- physical and spiritual."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
UNDERWATER BIRTH - The Ultimate
Alternative
http://www.ecstaticbirth.com/waterbirth.htm
It is my personal belief that underwater birth is the ultimate
alternative available in birthing practices at this time.
In
early 1980, in a supermarket in Pacific Beach, California, I saw a
newspaper with a picture of a baby underwater. The mother's body was
half submerged. On close inspection I could see that this was birth,
and my whole self said YES! I purchased the newspaper and read for the
first time about Igor Charkovsky and his research in Russia.
My
personal journey to that supermarket began in 1966 when I read BIRTH
WITHOUT FEAR by Grantly Dick-Read. During labour I tried to follow his
instructions, but the more I relaxed the more fear surfaced. Each
contraction brought more pain, and finally I asked to be drugged. It
was a terrible experience - 12 hours of excruciating pain and then
unconsciousness. I felt disconnected from my baby and a frustration
that I could not identify. It just made me sad and angry. I declared to
my husband as we were leaving the hospital. "There has to be a better
way to birth a baby. We know too much about ourselves. I am going to
find that way or I am not going to have another child!"
Two years
later, in 1968, I gave birth in the same hospital, with the same doctor
and the same husband. This time the experience was drug free, painless,
and very real work. I experienced an orgasm when my second son, Robert,
presented. In the two intervening years I had read every book I could
find on the psychology and physiology of birth, breastfeeding and
parenting. I became pregnant after I was told about psychoprophylaxis,
the Lamaze method. I spent a considerable amount of time with women who
had given birth using this method. With little or no support available
in the medical community in that time and place. I knew I must take
full responsibility for my birth experience. I was convinced before I
began the training process that we would have a successful outcome.
Although
I returned to my career in fashion design, I was still fascinated with
and continued research in birth and birthing practices, as well as
studies in psychology, parapsychology, and my own spirituality. In
1975, I met Leonard Orr, the creator of the rebirthing process and
philosophy.
Rebirthing is a personal process utilising the breath as
a tool for the surfacing and release of physiological stress and
thought patterns from previous life experiences. Those who have been
rebirthed report remembering and reexperiencing their births. Through
this process it is possible to eliminate primal trauma and transform
the subconscious impression of birth into a gentle and awakening event.
Rebirthing supports the experience of safety, innocence, and trust. It
is practised both in the water and on dry land.
I studied with
Leonard Orr, and in my own rebirthing process, among a myriad of
benefits, I released my fears of birth and of water. I realised that
birthing and being birthed are so interwoven in thoughts and feelings
of mother and child that this rebirthing process would be invaluable
for a woman who is pregnant. She could release prejudice and fear,
which cause contraction, stress, and pain in labour. If a woman could
retrieve birth and in utero experiences of her own, she would be more
certain of her power to influence her child's personality and
experience. I became determined to be a fine rebirther and counsellor;
and to work with pregnant couples to strive to create the gentlest
anxiety- and violence-free births possible.
Enter Igor Charkovsky.
Charkovsky believes that unlearning the genetic fear of water is the
key to the continued mental and physical development of the human race.
"Human development has been at a standstill for many thousands of
years; has reached an impasse. A life in the water offers new
possibilities for development" (Sidenbladh, 1982). Water is the cradle
of life. We must note that although we have evolved to our present
stage over the more than 3 billion years since life originated in the
oceans, we still create our bodies through all the stages of evolution
in water, in the womb. Charkovsky believes that the step from water
onto land created a duel between living creatures and gravity that has
lasted millions of years. In water the effect of gravity is lessened
greatly. The need for oxygen decreases by 60 to 75 percent. The body's
energy can be more efficiently utilised for healing and development.
Charkovsky says: "Not until I had done thousands of experiments with
animals did I begin to understand what kind of problem I was attempting
to solve. Up to then I hadn't really realised how deep down in the
unconscious mind of all land animals ----including man --- the fear of
water lies. I could never have dreamed of the complex view which exists
between different sides of the problem, of the subtleness with which
our "forefathers and mothers" control our way of viewing the world, of
the forces which take part in the battle between old and new in our way
of thinking (Sidenbladh, 1982)
In a birth with Dr. Charkovsky, the
mother and father have been in water training for months. They have
spent time with others working with the doctor, both babies and adults.
The woman spends all her labour and delivery in the tank of water.
Assisting at the birth are a midwife, nurses, and "sensitives" ---
people with parapsychological abilities who keep the situation under
control by reading the bio-fields and reporting impending danger for
the water birth. They handle the energy of the fear of water.
The
emphasis here is to learn to live in a water environment to achieve the
highest potential physically and mentally. Water-trained babies appear
to be more intelligent, healthier, and better motor co-ordinated than
babies reared in a conventional manner.
Dr. Charkovsky spent time as
a boy near the Siberian-Mongolian border with "healers", those who use
their energy to heal and influence others. He is an engineer and an
athletic coach and has studied in the fields of biology, psychology,
and midwifery. He has said that the most exact description of the work
he is involved in is, "…an investigation into the
opportunities for
developing human potential. I have devoted the last twenty years of my
life to solving the problem of how we can help new-borns adjust to
water's environment. This is a problem, which cannot be restricted to
any particular field --- medicine, psychology, biology. It requires a
comprehensive overall view which cot only encompasses the traditional
sciences but also border areas such as parapsychology (Sidenbladh,
1982)
I salute Igor Charkovsky's courage. He is neither lauded nor
supported by the scientific community in Russia. I have quoted Dr.
Charkovsky from the book WATER BABIES by Erik Sidenbladh. The piece of
manuscript I received was translated from the Swedish by Wendy Crotch.
Reading
in the supermarket newspaper about Dr. Charkovsky's work opened my mind
and my heart to the possibility of bringing birth to an even gentler
more spiritual mode than Leboyer did. Until that time I had thought
that Leboyer's soft lights, low tones and water bath administered by
the father would be idea if each person present also were aware of the
influence of their thoughts on the vulnerable mother and child. I was
then and am now sure that a "baby-advocate" or "sensitive" is necessary
at each birth, especially at high-tech births where the mother and baby
have received drugs. The "baby-advocate" would focus on mother and
child during labour to receive messages of distress and to communicate
psychically and verbally to the baby that all is well, that he (the
baby) is safe, that everyone is doing the best that they can, and that
everyone is there to serve the baby.
When I saw that it was possible
to give birth in water, it began to make sense that a woman allowed to
move freely and relax in warm water during labour would be more in
control and would be better able to communicate with and receive
communication from her baby. I knew that a woman who was unafraid would
dilate and release her baby more easily in the comfortable and buoyant
water atmosphere. She would naturally communicate safety to her baby,
as well as security and well being. Joan Liedloff states in THE
CONTINUUM CONCEPT (1977) "What a baby encounters at birth is what
he/she feels the nature of life to be. After a typical hospital birth
the baby knows life to be unspeakably lonely, unresponsive to his/her
signals and full of pain." In my experience as a rebirther, countless
people have described those feelings of danger and alienation
interwoven throughout their lives. Instead of life on planet Earth
being full of potential and a safe place to be, everything and everyone
is to be feared on some level of consciousness.
I realised that
birth into water would slow the birth process, giving time for
assimilation of each step. We have found this to be true. A baby born
into water can unfold and let go of tension and stress before
encountering the crush of gravity and the new experience of breathing
in an unknown atmosphere. Why not be born directly into the bath and
not have to be taken away from Mother? Why not remain connected to
Mother while getting used to an open body in an expanded universe.
As
the possibility of alleviating undue stress in birth became clearer to
me, I realised that learning potential could be dramatically effected.
Learning is more difficult when tension and stress are the underlying
state of being. All forms of creativity are less available to the
anxious person. In THE MAGICAL CHILD, Joseph Chilton Pearce (1977) says
"Intelligence grows by moving from the known to the unknown and
referring back to the known. No new experience can be accepted and
interpreted unless it has at least some similarity to past experience."
A new being moving from water to water, from mother's womb to mother's
arms, while encountering countless new experiences could become a more
centred and relaxed person for whom effective problem solving, artistic
expression, and service to others are natural and effortless.
My
friends Patrick and Jia Lighthouse were equally excited about the
potential and possibility of birthing a baby into water. Jia became
pregnant within a month of reading about Charkovsky's work, and we
began to prepare for what would be the first documented underwater
birth in the United States. Both Patrick and Jia were rebirthed
regularly, often in water. Preparation also included hypnotherapy and
writing affirmations to clear out negative thoughts and fears. Jia gave
careful attention to nutrition. Three to 4 weeks before the birth they
rented a fibreglass hot tub, scrubbed it with germicides, and filled it
with distilled water, adding salt to make a normal saline solution
(0.9% sodium chloride). Other preparations were the same as for any
home birth.
Our inner conviction that "this is the right thing to
do" never wavered, although we encountered opposition from the doctors
and most midwives whom we asked to attend. Patrick's attempts to
correspond with Dr. Charkovsky brought no answers, and we were unaware
of Dr. Odent at that time. Jia has said, "the greatest motivational
force behind our decision to create a water birth for our child was
love. We loved this new baby so much we wanted to give him the
gentlest, easiest, most heart-warming welcome into this world that we
could."
The people who were to attend the birth gathered as a
group three times to clear fears and doubts and to align as a group to
create a supportive ambience. Babies are vulnerable to all the thoughts
around them at birth. We wanted this baby to be greeted by unhurried,
joyful friends, not by fear and indifference. I believe that the way we
bring forth new life is an expression of how we view life itself. In
order to have peace around us, as we all say we do, we must first find
safety and trust and peace within, and give birth to our children and
our projects from that state of being. Jeremy's birth was awe-inspiring
for everyone. It was a highly spiritual celebration of life.
This
labour was 2 hours in length, as opposed to 48 hours the first time.
Jia very naturally turned to hands-and-knees position to deliver 10
and1/2 pound Jeremy. Patrick supported his son's entry into the world
and often comments that it was he who had the opportunity to lift his
son for his first breath. Water babies are not shocked or startled, nor
forced to take a first breath. While still receiving oxygen and
nutrients through the umbilical cord and being held in mother's arms,
they play with the air.
Jeremy stayed underwater for 20 minutes.
Patrick was holding the cord, and Jia, in tune with her body and her
baby, sensed when the placenta was about to detach. Jeremy was then
brought to the surface to learn to breathe gently. About 30 minutes
after he surfaced I was holding Jeremy while Jia was being checked. He
was breathing well, and the cord had not yet been cut. As I held him
close, I noticed he began a breathing rhythm that duplicated the way I
had often instructed Jia to breathe in rebirthing sessions. It was a
rapid connected breath. I thought, but did not say, OK, now let's take
a deep cleansing breath, ---Jeremy did just that. He took a deep breath
and looked right into my eyes. I could only say "Thank you!" and greet
my old friend. Jeremy's birth was the most peaceful event of my life up
to that point.
In subsequent births where I have participated, the
mother has brought the baby to the surface within 3 to 5 minutes. Once
the baby has let go, relaxed after the stress in the birth canal, the
next step - surfacing - can take place. I assisted one father in
catching his son. I was deeply moved as I felt the baby's release in
the warm, familiar surrounding - like feeling a flower unfold.
In a
dream prior to Jeremy's birth, one of several dreams that dealt with
preparation for the birth, I was instructed to saturate the first
receiving blanket he was wrapped in with apricot kernel oil. I now ask
each mother to decide what nurturing oil she feels her baby wants. Each
has been different.
I have participated in seven underwater births
since Jeremy's, and four births where the mother laboured in water but
had to be transferred to the hospital because of complications. In two
of the water births the cord was wrapped around the baby's neck, one
was around twice. In each instance the father was able to release the
cord gently; a potential complication was alleviated in the water
before trying to take a breath. I am aware of 11 underwater births on
the West Coast, and there have been underwater births in Texas and
Florida.
Because underwater births are not yet accepted by the
medical profession in the United States, they take place at home. Since
Jeremy's birth we have used the bottom half of a fibreglass
Float-to-Relax tank for some of the births and now use a tank designed
by an underwater father and myself. This tank is 8 feet by 4 feet by 2
feet, and it is portable. It is a frame of plastic piping covered by
carpet and vinyl, with a beanbag chair for seated support. Most women
deliver in the sit-squat position or on their hands and knees. The baby
is "caught" by the father or a midwife and put into the mother's arms
for her to bring the baby to the surface at breast level, an ideal
position for eye-to-eye bonding. While underwater, the baby is
receiving oxygen and nutrients from the placenta via the umbilical
cord. Both Dr. Charkovsky and Dr. Odent affirm that as long as the
primitive brain controls the baby, the baby is perfectly adapted to
immersion. Dr. Charkovsky says that water does not kill; that it is
fear that kills. The physical process of birth is slowed down so that
the system can adapt more gently. The baby is kept at the same level as
the placenta or higher. I have seen only one incident of tearing in all
the water births (including the births of two 10 and 1/2-pound boys),
and that was a tiny tear that did not even need repair. The
circumstance was a fast, intense labour and delivery (1 hour from onset
of labour).
Emotionally and spiritually, water birth is a peaceful
and gentle entry for the new human being and its mother. Allowed to
labour in water, the mother has a maximum amount of comfort and the
choice of her bed or the water. The atmosphere is safe, secure, and
warm. Familiar people whom she has chosen and who are ready and willing
to do what ever she wishes support the labouring woman. All of those
present recognise her vulnerability and their own psychic impact on the
birth experience. There is the opportunity for the father to
participate as fully as he chooses; couples report a deeper bond in
their relationship; and fathers enjoy an immediate close relationship
with the new baby.
A woman focused on the task of opening an letting
go must be assisted and encouraged to overcome her fear and handle her
contractions as she chooses. No orders are given. Bradley and Lamaze
breathing methods are used, as well as the connected "rebirthing"
breath. When a woman is in charge and working to release her child, the
experience for the baby is one of pressure and deep massage, as opposed
to a mother full of fear and blame, which causes the experience for the
baby to be one of constriction and pain. A child born into an
atmosphere of safety and ease and welcome will move into life with just
that point of view. Memories of shock and the physical pain of
conventional birth are retained in the subconscious mind and in the
body throughout our lifetime or until those memories are released. A
woman who has prepared and comes to the birth experience without
negative memories and barriers does not create a negative experience
and beginning for her child.
There is strong opposition to this
alternative, water birth, from many people, not just the medical
community. It is important to honour your fears as long as you have
them. Water birth is not for everyone. It must be a step taken on
careful consideration and with full trust and responsibility.
Recognising the centuries of thought that we in our culture have passed
from generation to generation as to the nature of life and how we are
supposed to give birth, I feel that preparation is necessary for a
successful, gentle birth experience. We must be open to possibilities
for growth and change, conscious evolution, before those changes can
take place. No matter where they plan to give birth, the people with
whom I work prepare with rebirthing, writing affirmations, group
sharing and support, values-clarification processes, meditation and
relaxation techniques, Bradley or Lamaze training. They view films of
underwater birth and gentle home birth, and counsel with couples who
have experienced joyous, painless birth and underwater birth. Each
individual mother (and her partner as well) has the opportunity to
experience a personal transformation in the process of giving birth,
thus transferring to the child the thoughts that life is peaceful and
pleasurable; that change, while inevitable, is not something to fear;
that new beginnings do not create separation; that taking
responsibility for the circumstances of being alive in a body does not
mean pain or burden. An experience of accomplishment, satisfaction, and
mastery is achieved in fully conscious participation with the creative
process...
I believe we can transform the quality of life on earth by transforming
the quality of the birth experience."

It isn't often
that a genuine breakthrough occurs, with major significance for all
humanity, unless, of course, it's in the realm of technology. Yet this
subject, although completely untechnological, has the potential for
widespread use and benefits to millions of people and to society at
large. It is exciting the imaginations of forward looking thinkers,
parents and expectant parents, humanist psychologists, nurses, midwives
and progressive doctors worldwide. I'm referring to the newest form of
gentle delivery, which honors the spiritual and emotional, as well as
the physical aspects of birth, and incorporates the use of water into
obstetrics - waterbirth, also known as underwater birth.
Why
Is Gentle Birth Essential?
When
gentle birth
is experienced as a shared miracle, it enhances the bond of love in a
family. The powerful memory of it may serve to sustain the couple
through difficult times. Yet, too often parents allow the miraculous
quality of their birth experiences to be taken away from them, as they
give up all control and place themselves in the hands of doctors and
hospitals concerned solely with the physical aspects of birth.
When
that occurs,
birth can become something that happens to the parents, rather than a
miracle in which they fully participate and from which they derive an
overwhelming sense of joy and personal empowerment.
Who
Controls Birth?
There
are few
things as universal as birth, yet regardless of its great significance
in our lives, we too readily relinquish control of this most sacred
rite.
In
recent years
Americans have become over-reliant on experts in every field.
Consequently, we have abrogated our responsibility and given away much
of our power. Birth is a particularly good example of this.
As a
culture, we
have in recent decades accepted the medical establishment's
self-serving assertion that it is impossible for a woman to safely
deliver a baby anywhere but in a hospital, attended by an M.D.
Obviously, this could not be true, or the human race would not have
survived into modern times. Nevertheless, the woman in labor has
precious little to look to for a positive model of what birth can be.
All
the cultural
messages describe labor and birth as excrutiatingly painful, which
usually causes the mother great stress and fear. She wonders if she is
capable of delivering naturally, without drugs or high tech
intervention. What she may forget, and what is absolutely critical for
her to remember and know, is that millions of years of evolution are on
her side! She doesn't have to do much of anything, her body already
knows how to birth a baby!
Outside
the USA,
about 80% of the world's babies are delivered with the assistance of
nurse-midwives and traditional midwives, often in home settings. And in
America, in our grandparents' and great-grandparents' generations, most
babies were born at home.
In
contrast, in
the USA today, institutionalized medicine has virtually taken over
childbirth. As a result, it has created many procedures for the
convenience and benefit of the doctors and hospital staff, rather than
for the safety and comfort of the mother and baby.
The
result is
often an aggressive approach and the medical management of birth,
typical of doctors, rather than a more gentle, passive approach that
allows nature to take its course, which is more typical of nurses and
midwives. Many critics believe this to be one of the primary reasons
that cesarean births have been on the upswing in America for many
years.
What
About Safety?
Studies
have shown
that planned home birth in a clean environment is actually safer than
hospital delivery. If that fact were more widely known, perhaps home
birth would be more broadly practiced in the USA, where it is now a
very small percentage of tota l births.
It is
important to
note that America is far from the safest place to have a baby. In fact,
the USA ranks 23rd worldwide in infant mortality statistics. That means
there are 22 other countries where childbirth is safer than in the
United States.
With
such a poor
record it is obvious that we must take a closer look at our standard
childbirth practices, which have not worked well, discover what is
being done wrong, and make the changes necessary to correct the
problem.
It is
disappointing to learn that the United States has one of the highest
cesarean rates of all the developed countries, averaging over 25%
nationally, and running well over 60% in some teaching hospitals.
However, a cesarean rate of only 3-6% is typical of the Scandinavian
countries, where midwifery is far more widespread, and which also have
significantly lower infant and maternal mortality figures.
The
Emotional and Spiritual Sides of Birth
Too
often American
hospitals are insensitive to the emotional and spiritual aspects of
bringing a new life into the world and tend only to the body,
neglecting the heart and soul.
Hospital
personnel
may treat the baby as insensitive, unseeing and unfeeling. They are
frequently unaware of what humanist psychologists and psychiatrists
have known for years - that there is much evidence to support the
belief that babies are sentient not only at birth, but even before.
For
nine months
the infant develops inside the mother's body, nestled in the warm
amniotic fluid. If all is well and normal, the baby floats in its dark,
secure, cozy nest supported and protected, with all its needs met
immediately. Food and oxygen are continually supplied and wastes
removed via the placenta and umbilical cord. Everything is in perfect
balance and the feeling is one of security and abundance.
What
Does Gentle Birth Feel Like?
Imagine
then, a
gentle introduction to the world by being born in water. Warm fluid is
the element most familiar and comfortable to the fragile infant, so he
or she does not experience fear or pain when coming in contact with it.
The
room is
semi-dark, to avoid a shock to the baby's eyes, and quiet, except for
some soothing music. Mother is in the warm tub feeling relieved, her
weight supported by the water. The comfort of the bath relaxes her
tension and eases her labor pains, while providing the freedom to move
into whatever position is most comfortable.
Water
is such an
effective painkiller that only about 10% of women who enter the tub
during labor request painkilling drugs. Father may also be in the tub,
holding or massaging mother. Ideally, the midwife, nurse or doctor
waits patiently nearby, offering the mother encouragement and support
whenever it is needed. Together they wait for the baby to emerge.
SPECIAL
NOTE regarding tubs
Very
recently I
have been contacted by a tub maker who believes that the whirlpool
style tubs that have internal pipes (which produce pulsating water
jets) are the wrong choice for waterbirth because, he states, the
internal pipes cannot be reached to be adequately cleaned. I am looking
into this and will post further information as I learn more about this
issue. In the meantime, the best and safest choice of tubs is probably
one that has no internal pipes.
After
the infant
has descended through the birth canal into the warm water, the mother
can even choose to deliver the infant herself, as the birth attendants
wait nearby in case they are needed.It is a remarkably simple matter
for the mother, after she has the last contraction which expels the
baby, to reach down, take it in her arms and bring her child up out of
the water and to her breast.
Typically,
women
who deliver in water report a feeling of excitement and lasting
personal empowerment that simply cannot be matched by standard hospital
birthing procedures.
Within
seconds,
because of air touching the skin and cord, the physiological system is
signaled, and the baby easily begins to use its lungs for breathing,
without being slapped or roughly stimulated. Since the cord is usually
not cut for several minutes, the baby's transition to air breathing is
gradual and non-traumatic, and the newborn can take its time to become
familiar with using its lungs
This
gentle,
slower approach is in sharp contrast to the more common but
questionable practice of cutting the cord immediately after the baby is
out. Cutting the baby off from its lifeline to the mother so quickly
and abruptly creates a breathe or die situation, which can cause a
panicky feeling in the infant. In the worst case, if there is an
undetected proble
