"How to Achieve Weight Control"
The proper control of ones weight is obviously quite important
for so many reasons. Being overweight creates hart and
respiratory problems that kill multitudes as well as with
circulation; sufficient blood in the brain among other things
and even impairs ones ability to move about or buy clothing much
less with ones appearance et cetera. As we are fond of saying
about the shop "One owes it to the people who have to look at
you to look your best".
The skeleton of ones body is only designed to deal with so much
stress. Therefore when one consistently overloads ones skeletal
stress variable it creates malfunctions and parts breakage. One
finds out just how much fun getting back surgery, replacement
hips and knees really is. Ones teeth being all there in good
condition is crucial to digestion therefore weight control.
The problems go on and on like trying to find furniture that
fits both at home and out in public such as seat in a bus, auto
or theater. Getting through doorways, hallways, aisles crowds,
turnstiles etc. The concept is about the "Modus Operandi of
Weight Control" rather than just a diet. What one eats and when
one eats it are more relevant than the quantity. One may drown a
horse yet you can not make it thirsty.
As always "Preventative Maintenance" is the easy way out rather
than trying to repair the damage after the fact.
v9-3.4-"Gramalkin®™©1970"
"Fasting"
One of the most important facets of Spiritual Evolution and
general good health and healing is fasting.
Why do we sleep one third of our life away? To rest our body
and at least partially empty our subconscious garbage through
dreams. Paramahansa Yogananda said dreams are usually just
indicative of "where we are keeping our head".
Yet usually our internal organs never get any rest as they are
constantly processing something. They eventually just get
exhausted and we die. Fasting lets the internal organs get a
chance to actually rest, pass time without having to process and
toil gurgle and boil.
Fasting may be quite dangerous even crippling and life
threatening done improperly. The best policy is to fast one day
a week and three days once a year as a minimum.
Work up to a long fast. First do a fruit fast then a juice fast
(with one kind of fruit and juice at a time) then a complete
fast. Fast one day then eat. Fast two days then eat. Fast three
days then eat etc.
DO NOT just take off on a long fast. The body may and will go
into shock and create a health crises, go through too heavy of a
toxin dump and poison one, among many other problem scenarios.
A three day fast is pretty much safe for the average person at
any time.
When fasting especially longer fasts best results are obtained
by maintaining a calm quiet low physical activity, low stimulus
scenario.
The correct way to perform a one day fast is; the day before
have an evening meal of lightly steamed fresh vegetables and
short grain brown rice. Eat nothing after the evening meal.
Eat nothing the next day, drink only water (for thirst not
hunger).
The next day start the day (break the fast) with one kind of
fresh fruit for at least two hours. This is a one day fast.
Even after the two hours of only fruit eat lightly, no heavy
food. The body is like a sponge, when it is wrung out what is
soaked back up is most important.
One may do more body damage by breaking the fast incorrectly
than the benefit gained by the fast.
Believe it or not there is a big difference in fasting and
starving, it's all in the head.
There have been cases of people that did not eat or drink at
all. One such case is documented in Yogananda's book
"Autobiography of a Yoga". A fabulous book, read it, guarantee
it will help you.
The effects of fasting are extraordinary. Even short fasts will
get one high, produce a huge gain in awareness, consciousness,
and energy level.
When we eat much blood rushes to the abdomen essentially
draining blood and oxygen from the head inducing unconsciousness.
"Diet"
Things that we eat and drink mostly are either "Acid" or
"Alkaline" PRODUCING in the body. Almost everything available in
Western Civilization is Acid producing (if not also Acid Mucus
producing), and almost everyone is WAY OVER ACID!!
This "Effects" in all manner of "Dis-Ease" psychological and
physical from pot marked skin to violent psychological makeup.
It is imperative to have the correct Acid / Alkaline balance.
The easy way is to list the alkaline producing; the list is so
short. Cauliflower; baked potato; broccoli?; raw milk; citrus
fruit among others.
The best policy is a diet of one fourth grain to three fourths
fruits; nuts; vegetables.
Vegetarians MUST eat grown above the ground in trees type nuts
(almonds, walnuts etc.) to maintain body balance with the cosmos.
Faze meat out of the diet in stages to avoid a potential
healing crises. First stop eating four-legged meat. Then stop
eating two-legged meat. Then stop eating no legged meat. Finally
stop eating dairy and eggs.
There are three types of bodies muscle dominated, nerve
dominated and gut dominated and three vibratory rate grades of
food.
The highest vibratory rate is fruits, nuts, vegetables,
sprouts, and herb tea.
The medium vibratory foods are basically the grains. The low
vibratory foods include the meats, alcohol et cetera. Garbage is
defined by being poisonous, and is shown on the scale as the
next step down from meat.
There is supposed to be a lot of "Empty Space" inside ones
body. The denser, mucus producing, lower vibratory foods plug up
the empty spaces in the body with "Acid Mucus" increasing
density decreasing vibratory rate therefore awareness also
flexibility and mobility.
"Steep herbal teas at least twenty minutes".
The "Solar Diet"
Based on keeping ones body in balance with the cosmos. Has to
do with the angle that the Suns rays strike the food during
growth in relationship with ones daily life cycle. There are
three basic types of consumables. "Morning Food", which grows
above the ground in trees (E.G. apple, orange, nuts etc.).
"Afternoon Food", which grows on the ground (tomato, corn).
"Night Food", which grows under the ground (potato, radish).
There are six "Anytime Foods" unfermented herb tea, brewers
yeast, bean sprouts, molasses, honey, and short grain brown
rice, that may be eaten at anytime without disrupting body
balance with the cosmos, and some exceptions like banana (a
night food).
Practicing the "Solar Savatic Diet" will result in
keeping the
body in balance with the cosmos; a physical Decarbonization and
increase in vibratory rate an "Ease"; to the point ones body may
handle the flow of "Cosmic Consciousness".
Always start the day with fruit, sweet one day citrus the next.
Eat citrus by its self.
The Solar Diet is preformed to ones own life cycle. If one gets
up at six pm. it is morning to you eat morning food, in the
morning of your day, say the first six hours. Should one miss
total adherence to the Solar Savatic Diet at least introduce
food in order at a meal. First the juice, then the toast, then
the hash browns. Lightly steamed is best cooking policy.
"The Liquid Diet"
One of the best weight control techniques is the liquid diet.
A woman of my acquaintance lost hundreds of pounds over a
period of several months on a liquid diet formulated by her
Doctor. The food, regular examinations and schedule were
provided by the Doctor with an "adapt to the new you" course.
The food was soups with tiny particles of whatever in it and
shakes et cetera manufactured especially for them.

"Smoothie Meals"
By using a blender to liquefy food one may make a smoothie out
of almost anything from lasagna to salad even with meat.
Progress through the blender speeds from slow to fast or to the
liquefy setting.
Simply add some herbal tea or water to whatever and liquefy.
Hot or boiling liquid may be used to help keep hot food hot.
The results are amazing. The food is so filling and easy
assimilate or digest. It goes through the body in a flash,
leaves little waste and really helps control ones weight and
make one feel better.
"Diet Herbal Tea"
Diet Herbal Tea is one of the best aids in weight control and
general good health.
One of the better brands of diet tea is "Nutra-Slim Tea by
Health Venture Inc. Oakland, California 1 510 635 8866.
All of the diet teas seem to work (some better than others) and
they all have the same horrible tasting herb in them. Drink them
straight, zero sweetener or milk et cetera.
Diet Herbal Tea is marvelous at cleaning out the intestines and
dissolving fat. One should refrain from getting too obsessed
with diet tea or anything else for that matter.
Use a bag of Diet Herbal Tea in a quart of boiled water and let
it steep for an hour. One in the morning and one at night is
often a good modis operandi, or just one in the morning or at
night. It is a good idea to stay close to a bathroom at least at
first.
"Hatha Yoga
Properly done "Hatha Yoga" does wonders for balancing these
elements of body and food types. Master Vishnu Divananda
disciple of Sivanananda taught sets of postures.
Master level Hatha Yoga is probably the most helpful spiritual
evolution experience the author ever had. Hatha is the physical
yoga postures, stand on the head et cetera.
Major break through in physical adeptness, awareness and energy
flow. After doing Hatha correctly for a while the body seems to
effortlessly float along, feet hardly touching the ground.
Do Hatha correctly today tomorrow you are high. That's all day
from the moment eyes open until gone to bed at night no matter
how long a day one has.
The Chiropractor was also one of the most helpful experiences
the author ever had. Getting an adjustment from a good
Chiropractor advanced my Hatha five or ten years in one
adjustment. How far one could bend over to touch ones toes for
example improved.
Most people have bones that are out of alignment. In fact when
the bones get in alignment it feels weird at first one is so
used to having then out of alignment.
To the best of my knowledge there is no place for the average
person to learn Master level Hatha Yoga at the turn of the
twenty-first century. v11-16.5
Swami Vishnudevananda, decuple of Sivananda was the only
Guru/fully realized Master that the author ever heard of that
taught "Hatha Yoga" to the open public and he is dead.
The other Gurus personally only teach Hatha to their disciples
that are going to be Hatha instructors.
The author had spent years trying to learn Hatha from books et
cetera. Then the knowledge came through that the only way to
learn Hatha Yoga correctly is from the Guru personally.
Seek and ye shall find. So seeking the Hatha Guru began. Ooobop
shazam practically instantly Swami Vishnu Devananda appeared. He
taught me to do Hatha correctly in two, two-hour classes.
Interestingly when in Swamage's presence one could do anything
he ask you to. Suddenly you were a genius.
Both Vishnu Devananda and Satchidananda published excellent
books on Hatha Yoga. These are listed in the suggested reading
list.
However in their books also all other Hatha Yoga books I have
seen teach the one posture rest one posture rest technique. Even
in the classes at their Ashrams that are taught by the disciples
taught the one posture rest technique.
Good luck finding enough time to complete all the postures with
this modus operandi.
The one posture rest technique is used because the books must
be usable by any one of any age or physical condition who picks
them up.
What Vishnu Devananda taught in person was the sets of postures
then rest technique. One would do a set of several
scientifically figured out compatible postures then rest in the
Corpse position three minutes between sets. He of course knew
what the disciple could do without harming ones self.
In the back of Satachananda's book is a list of postures one
must do every day.
All of the postures are done for sixty seconds each except the
Head Stand and Shoulder Stand for seven minutes and the Plough
for half the time of the Shoulder Stand or three and a half
minutes.
One works up to the full time for each posture.
The sets Vishnu Devananda showed me are coming soon:
The Half and Full Lotus postures are on the list. So sit in one
or the other (the Full Lotus if one can) and do one hundred
Cleansing Breaths and one hundred Prana Yama Breaths.
Then do the Sun exercise twelve times. Then rest three minutes
et cerera.
Angels can fly because they take themselves lightly.
Good luck, love, thank you.
