DISEASES OF THE
INTERNAL ORGANS.

INTERNAL ORGANS.
No matter what part of the intrnal
part of the body is affected, the
organs of digestion, absorption, as.
similation, nutritiOn-a1 are cO-suf-
| fererS.
All disorders begin with them,
and verify to the degree that in
cumbranoes and impurities are de-
posted within their tissues, their
healthy working capacity decreases.
Naturally the healthy man is quite
unconscious of the process of diges-
| ton going on within him.
However, large number of per-
sons are subject to more or less dis
comfort in this respect, but little
| or no attention is given to them un-
| less they increase to actual pain.
But when the retained impurities
and foreign deposits begin to dry
and become hardened, Inflammation
| ensues, resulting in one of two eX-
tremes, which is either diarrhoea or
constipation.
Both or either of these conditions
are caused by undue internal heat.
Constipation is caused by the dry
ing of the mucous lining of the in
testines, so that the focal matter
refuses or cannot proceed, and be-
comes dry and hard; and the result
is that these retained fermentating
impurities are absorbed into circula-
ton over the whole body, even into
the blood This is slow Self-pOisOn-
ing.
Diarrhoea sets in when the life
force in the body is strong enough
to thus remove and eXpell the fer
menting effete matter.
In the case of diarrhOea, the food
is expelled before the digestive or
gans have extracted all the nutri-
ment contained in it, the body is but
partially nourished.
In both cases the food is not prop
erly assimilated, and the body be-
comes surcharged-overloaded with
the retained impurities and effete
matter.
Poverty of blood and consumption
are often the result of these condi-
tions.
Can these conditions be overcome
and the producing causes be remov-
ed so the organs will work in heal
thy normal manner? Yes, and you
can also learn how to keep the whole
organism, in good, healthy working
condition.
1t is in all cases, necessary to UNI
derstand the natural law and apply
it understandingly in it's various
forms and notifications according to
each individuals needs.
The body must be cleaned-the
producing causes removed, evil and
destructive habits overcome so that
the inner sOul-self becomes master
of the body and also the animal soul
the objective mind. The whole
being to act and work in harmony
with the natural Divine laws.

And now few lines to old and
developed souls, whether you are
TheOsOphists, Occulists, or on the
pure ESOtcTlC VI AhASs hsAhS
the true Re-generated Life cOnserv-
ing all the life forces in the body.
First-As to Fasting in connection
with the Psychic-Rhythmic Vital
Breathing. Fasting will do great
many things that are most desirable
If we desire to grow not only in
health, but ins real development. 1t
will not only cleanse the body, but 1t
is a most important factor in many
other ways.
1t will completely eradicate the eff
fects of a long life of wrong living,
and dissipation as nothing else can.
1t will effectively destroy the appe-
tites for the animal and coarser de-
sires of life. 1t will strengthen the
body physically, and it will also dis
sipate all tendencies to gross animal
ism that so terribly effects so many
of US, and from which it is almost
impossible to extricate ourselves.
I will further say that it complete
ly kills all desires for foods and
stimulants and narcotics that breed
lust, such as meats, liquors and to-
bacco-the three greatest curses OF
the human race. With these desires
gone, the desire to lust ana 10 reVei
in animalism is also gone.
All the desires of every name and
nature of such beastality disappears
absolutely. Not even thousand
Helens of Old Troy can produce a
phase on such natural and purified
man. These are solemn realities.
Why is this SO? Because all de-
sire for lust leaves the body and the
animal soul-the objective mind,
all obedient to the higher self as
fast as the person eliminates the
animal poison which he had absorb
ed by wrong living. And when en-
tirely free from these (animal pois-
ons) higher, grander, nobler and
glorious thoughts control and guide
him and the God nature In him
is reached in full orbed glory, in
actual personal experience. He, SO
