FOREWORD
I have gone through the book written by Shri Devendra Vora on
Acupressure Therapy (Reflexology), making available simple
directions for using the acupressure therapy to preserve one's health
and to cure illness if it overtakes one.
The human body is a perfect machine which can regulate itself,
provided the natural rules of food, work and rest are observed. When
we transgress natural rules, we create toxins in the body, which the
body attempts to get rid of. This attempt is considered as disease and
is given different names according to different symptoms. If the
transgression of rules is set right by natural methods available to every
human being, complete cure is possible without any other aid. This is
Nature Cure Treatment which includes the following methods :
( 1) Fasting as long as necessary and then dieting properly, using
enema, mud packs, steam and friction baths. (2) Using wheat sprouts
and their juice along with a raw diet.
(3 ) Living only on fresh and raw vegetables, to be taken
regularly in a proper manner.
(4) Using magnets to cure illness as prescribed in Magneto
Therapy.
( 5 ) Adopting Acupressure Therapy which is described in this
book in simple language with clear instructions.
( 6 ) Adopting Urine (Auto) Therapy which can cure all illnesses
and maintain both mental and physical health.
Every person can use any one or more of these methods
according to his conviction and convenience. What is reguired is faith
in the treatment adopted.
I am glad Shri Vora is publishing this important and
useful manual on Acupressure Therapy, so that any person
who is interested in Natural Treatment can be his own Doctor
of Health. I hope this book will be translated into all Indian
languages.

PREFACE
Though I am at present engaged in international business as per my
desire, my second choice was to go in for the medical line. I had an abiding
interest in Health Science since my childhood and I used to learn as much as I
could about Health Science. My curiosity was amply rewarded in 1977 when
I got an opportunity to study Health Science during my tour of the U.S.A. I
came to know that Acupressure Therapy was put to test in the U.S.A. and
found very useful. I went deep into it and found its roots in India as remote as
5000 years ago. The chart of the soles given in this book is based on the
writings of "Sushrut". Acupressure is only an offspring of Nature's own
science installed in our body and given as a great boon to mankind.
Acupressure therapy was being followed in different forms in different
countries and even the Red Indians in the 16th century cured diseases by
pressing different points on the patient's soles. Dr. William Fritzgerald and
others of the U.S.A. have carried out research on the same and have brought
this science to light in the 20th century.
This therapy is capable of solving the present-world health problems
and bestowing good health on all in just 10 years.
From the view point of health the world could be divided into :
( 1) (About 60 %)-those people (including those to be born) who are
healthy but liable to catch diseases). With the regular Acupressure treatment,
their illness can be prevented.
( 2 ) (About 25 %)-those people who are suffering at present but can be
cured without cost with the help of this science and prevented from falling ill
again.
(3) (About 15%)-who require medical help, medicine and/or surgery.
There are enough practitioners and hospitals in the world that can take care of
these people. Afterwards, they can also be prevented from falling ill, with the
use of Acupressure Therapy.
Thus, with proper propagation and teaching of this science, most of the
health problems of the world can be solved. This can be done easily as
mentioned below ;
( 1 ) This therapy should be learnt by the teachers of high schools and
professors at the college level and taught as a voluntary subject. These
students, in turn, will propagate this therapy not only in their homes but also
in the community around during their vacations.
4
(2 ) Retired teachers, professors, government servants and other
educated people can learn it and conduct classes to teach it to others.
(3 ) The press can greatly assist by regularly publishing articles on
various aspects of this therapy and the experiences of their readers.
(4 ) It can also be propagated through the media like Radio, TV and
Cinema.
(5 ) Philanthropists and charitable organisations, religious-minded
people and religious institutions can adopt this as a God-given therapy and
work for its propagation.
The huge amount which is being spent on health problems can better be
diverted towards better hygiene, better and cheaper supply of nutritious food
to the people and thus create a goodwill cycle to bring health and happiness
to all.
The World Health Organisation is now giving attention to this therapy.
The West has accepted acupuncture. Very soon the world will accept this
Health Science which is the mother of Acupuncture, Siatsu or Pointed
Pressure Therapy.
Nature's gifts like sunshine, air and water are free and so is this science.
Even a child can easily understand and practise it. Any one can practise it
himself for his health. Cheap home devices can be used if so desired.
We shall always be grateful to those unknown Rishis or Sages who
discovered the points installed in our palms and soles to be pressed for
treatment under this therapy and made us aware of these points. We are also
grateful to all those who have preserved this science through the centuries
and to those who have helped to encourage this science.
These Rishis have taught that the body consists of five elements,
namely : Earth (Prithvi), Water (Jal), Fire (Agni), Air (Vayu), and Space
(Akash) and all these are governed by Bio-Electricity or Life Battery. In order
to maintain proper balance of these in our body we should take food and
drink according to the season. Some foods which are useful in one season can
be harmful in another season, e.g. buttermilk and curd are useful in summer
but are not advisable in monsoon. Or fresh vegetables which are useful in
summer and winter can be a cause of disease in the
5
monsoon, because of excess of water substance and the possibility of the
water being polluted in the monsoon. Similarly, the excess of any one of these
substances leads to a national health problem e.g., in Japan, cold is very
common. It is due to (i) dampness of air (ii) and more water substance
contained in their staple food of rice and fish. Incidence of common cold
means that Nature wants to throw out excess of water from the body and any
attempt to retain it would lead to more diseases. The best cure for the people
of Japan is to take food like wheat regularly, have sunbath, drink boiled and
lukewarm water, practise more Sun Pranayam and avail themselves of this
science. In Afghanistan, there is more fire element in the human body. Dry
air, dry fruits and the blazing sun lead to the excess of heat which causes
bleeding through the nose. This can be treated by taking more green watery
fruits like watermelon, honeydew, etc., and also by avoiding the use of dry
fruits in summer and using buttermilk and curd and practising Moon
Pranayam.
In this book, on page 120 of fig. 681 have shown an easy way to find
out which eatables/drinks will suit our body. If it is practised regularly, our
diet will become most balanced and as such we shall be able to control and
cure most of the diseases.
I have only to urge all those who love health to follow Nature and carry
out research and accept whatever is found beneficial.
Louis Pasteur's research about germs is a boon to mankind. But in his
enthusiasm, he has overlooked the fact that man-human body-is very much
superior and is capable of fighting all the germs and throwing them out of the
body by creating antibodies. Diseases caused by these germs enter the body
through eatables kept in the open and through overripe fruits as well as
through drinking polluted water. We can avoid these things. Therefore, the
best cure for health is to empower the Human battery-to recharge the organs
and endocrine glands through this therapy and maintain proper hygiene. If
these instructions of Nature are followed properly, good health can be
enjoyed. However, for those already suffering from incurable diseases, drugs
or surgery may be used.
I am most grateful to Shri Morarjibhai Desai, the former Prime
Minister of India, for taking great interest in this science and encouraging me
to write this book and also for blessing me with his 'FOREWORD'.
I am also grateful to all those who have taken great interest in this
Health Science and spread it among a large number of people.

Dr. Jullian N. Kenyon, M.D. of U.K. mentions in his book "21 st
Century Medicine" that all the therapies based on bio-electricity will prevail
in the world. Among all such therapies, Acupressure is the easiest, simplest
and the BEST "Do-it-Yourself" therapy. Only this therapy gives prevention,
proper diagnosis and cure for A to Z diseases. Till mankind survives, this
therapy will be the Therapy of the world".
Dr Andrew Weil, M.D. of U.S.A. in his book "Spontaneous Healing"
maintains that our body has a great capacity to heal itself.
We all stand on the shoulders of our predecessors. We are grateful to
all of them. This book is a humble effort to explain Nature's science and its
technology in a simple way, from a layman's angle in the hope that it will
benefit the people at large.
As laymen, we are interested in quick recovery and would not mind
using harmless, complementary medicines. As such, the use of such
medicines and of some hints of the Pointed Pressure Therapy Siatsu are
included in this book. Acupressure therapy has been tried by more than 5
million people in the past five years and in 85 % cases it has succeeded.
Nobody has reported any side effects. Several instances can be given here.
But the following report of Dr Rahmaney, M.B.B.S. and Homoeopath of
Malegaon is very inspiring :
"Women working on hand spinning wheels suffered from cuts in
fingertips near the nails made by the thread of the yarn. Infection and then
whitlow put them in a very painful condition. Moreover, throbbing pain at
night caused sleeplessness and rendered them unable to work during the day
to earn their daily bread. And this caused loss of labour for a week or two.
Further, the opening of the abscess required dressing for weeks together.
Acu- pressure treatment was given to hundreds of such patients and they were
taught to do the same at home. Pressure was given on the nearest point or on
exactly the same point on the opposite hand. By this treatment patients got
relief from pain, had good sleep at night, and within 3 to 5 days it was found
that the pus and inflammation had gone and the dead skin got peeled off.
Now these women press
their tired fingers after every 1-hour or so. There are no more cuts,
there is no more pain. They bless me and I thank Acupressure Therapy".
Similarly, I have cured many patients of Mastitis i.e., pain in breasts
after delivery, Appendicitis, stomach pain, B. P., etc. by this Acupressure
Therapy.
7
I request all health-loving people, benevolent institutions and the
Government to give a trial to this therapy and propagate it if found
useful. The suggestions given in this book for the treatment of various
diseases have been found useful and so are given out for the benefit of
all the people without any legal liability to myself.
Let us not forget the kind mother Nature in our pursuit of
science. In the end I pray that :
"Welfare be to all the world;
May all be interested in helping others;
Diseases and misery may perish;
And may all the people be Healthy and Happy."
Now, the revised edition of this book is published. I have
added chapters about our body, its working and also Nature's other
therapies of Nature Cure, Chromotherapy, Urine Therapy and
Biochemic therapy; and many new hypothecations based on my
personal examination of over 1,25,000 people. I am grateful to all
my readers and the publishers.

Based on my experience, this book is revised again to make it
more useful to people. 30-12-97
From the experience of practice for twenty years and personal
examination of over 2,00,000 patients, I am revising this book to make
it more useful and reliable.

CHAPTER 1
OUR BODY
Of all kinds of happiness, the best happiness is good health
i.e. freedom from any worries about one's body or diseases. That
is why we should know more about our body and how to look
after it.
According to science the human body appeared on Earth
more than 5 million years ago. It is the greatest wonder. It is
intriguing to find out which machine of the present machine-age
is not placed in our body by the Creator. All these delicate but
strong machines can work non-stop even for 100 years and work
in unbelievable harmony. Moreover, this human body is
capable of curing any disease. Acupressure helps the body in
this process of CURE and also to maintain all organs and
endocrine glands in a proper working order-so that we get
PERFECT HEALTH and the possibility of any disease is greatly
reduced.

HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS
We can compare our body with the most modern, mobile, air
conditioned factory. Its building has a cement concrete structure and is
built on pillars-the legs which give it movement also. Its first floor,
which is up to diaphragm, accommodates the nutrition producing plant,
filteration plant and even sewage plant to throw out wastage-urine and
stools. Surprisingly, it has a unique reproduction plant. On the second
floor of this human building there is a non-stop pump (Heart) and also
air controllers (Lungs). The upper/top floor is dome-shaped and it
accommodates the atomic reactor, super-computer and telephone
exchange (Brain) which has miles-long, a fastest communication
system. And surprisingly, all the different plants work
AUTOMATICALLY and in co-ordination. This human factory has the
following inbuilt systems in it :

take sensations of coldness, heat, softness, hardness, pressure,
etc. to the brain and bring back the orders from the brain. The
skin protects the muscles and fats of the body. It also prevents
bacteria from entering the body. Moreover, many toxins are
thrown out of the body through the skin, thus serving as a blood

liver (Point No. 23) and stored in the gall bladder (Point No. 22) and
pancreatic juice are poured into the duodenum where it mixes with the
food. Jejunum, the middle part of the small intestine is about seven to
eight feet long. The last part is called Ilium and is about fifteen to
sixteen feet long. Digestive juices secreted here get mixed with the
food and help in the digestion. The bile is alkaline in nature. It
neutralizes and renders the semi-digested acidic food coming from the
stomach, alkaline; so as to allow the pancreatic enzymes to act. Bile
juice also helps the fat to be emulified and made soluble for easy
digestion. Most of the food is digested in the small intestine and
broken down into simpler products like amino acids, monosaccharides
like glucose, monoglycerides and free fatty acids which are absorbed
in the small intestine. These absorbed juices are turned into blood by
spleen. The unabsorbed residue goes into the large intestines through
ileocaecal valve (Point No. 21). It is the world's best sewage system.
The necessary amount of water and certain salts are absorbed here.
This large intestine consists of the caecum (with the appendix) and the
colon which ends into rectum. Depending on their position, parts of
the colon are named as ascending colon, traverse colon, descending
colon and the sigmoid colon. Inflammation of the colon is known as
Colitis. It may be noted that if the food is properly digested and liquid
intake is sufficient, the stool is properly formed-soft and nearly
odourless.
and later on leading to ulcer in the intestines and the mouth. On the
other hand, production of excess heat in the body becomes the root
cause of cold due to heat; disturbs the functioning of the eyes, one
of the root causes and it is also that necessitates the use of
spectacles, also it makes the semen, ova thinner-leading to early
ejaculation and discharge in sleep for men and also to Leukorrhea in
women; it also leads to problems of skin, falling of hair and is one of
the main causes of Jaundice. Such a vicious cycle also leads to short-
temperedness.
The proper functioning of liver is most vital and hence it is the
biggest gland in the body. Moreover, it stores fats, minerals and
vitamins. It converts sugar into Glycogen and vice-versa and stores it.
Moreover, liver removes toxins and destroys unwanted by-products.
Thus, it will be observed that as proper functioning of many
organs of the body depends upon proper functioning of the liver. The
quality of life is rightly said to depend upon the liver. However, its
functioning is disturbed by excess heat in side the body. Such an
excess heat in the body is created by less functioning of liver and also
due to cobalt and Infra-Red rays, heat producing anti-biotic drugs,
drugs which disturb the proper functioning of liver and also due to the
exposure to outside heat. In all these cases, it is utmost necessary to
take treatment (shown later on in this book) to reduce excess heat in
the body.
Working of liver is controlled by adrenal gland (Point No. 28).
Respiratory System : As the body requires food for nutrition, it
requires oxygen for energy. For any type of work to be done, the body
requires oxygen which helps in Producing energy from the stored
food materials. This °xygen is of prime importance, because if it is
not supplied
HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS 22
to the brain for more than three minutes, the brain stops
functioning.
When the air enters the nose, it is filtered and moistened
before it enters the lungs (Point No. 30). Here the impure blood
is sent by the heart. The blood in the capillaries of the lungs
absorbs oxygen from the inhaled air and release impurities like
carbondioxide, hydrogen etc. which are exhaled out. The purified
blood is sent back to the heart from where it is pumped into the
body and thus oxygen is supplied to all the organs (see figs. 6 &
7).
In order that the heart can function properly, the outside wall
muscles also require oxygen, blood circulation and electricity. It can
be revitalised with rest, Acupressure treatment and gold charged
water.
Blood : Out of the extract sucked from small intestines the liquid
juice is turned into blood by the spleen (Point No. 37). It then goes
into the heart from where it is pumped into the whole body providing
nutrition and oxygen to all its

considerably reduced. The yogis are known to live on a minimum of

in the middle and front part of the body as shown in fig. 20 & 22. If
there is any disturbance in or damage to the spinal cord, the flow of
electricity to the connecting organs is hindered. If, for example,
vertebra no. 4 is subdued, it impairs speech and causes stammering.
When treatment is given on this point of vertebra no. 4, the problem of
stammering is cured.
Thus, it is very vital that the sciatic nerve works properly. For
this reason sitting erect is necessary and the following daily exercise
will be found very useful.
touching behind the legs. Thus, the spinal cord gets fully stretched and
flow of energy is ensured all over the organs. It is observed that due to
the unexpected jerks and lifting of heavy things, cold, wearing of high
heeled shoes, etc. the sciatic nerve gets damaged, causing pain in the
legs from waist to toes, knees, etc. There is no damage to vertebrae and
so the root cause is not detected even in X-rays. However, when
pressed on the points of sciatic nerve; as shown in fig. 42 (a) & (b); pain
will be felt. After the treatment on the points of sciatic nerve in both the
legs, all pain in the legs including knee pain will subside.

It is, therefore,
extremely necessary for
a pregnant woman to
take calcium and other
minerals in sufficient
quantity for the proper
development of the
foetus. This calcium is
available in milk,

vegetables and fruits.
However, this calcium
and minerals should be
properly digested.
Digestion of calcium is

during pregnancy; so that the child develops properly and get
strong bones. Therefore, the proper functioning of thyroid-
parathyroid glands is of prime necessity.
Moreover, the proper development of the foetus in the
mother's womb and of the child later on, depends upon the
union of the sperm with the egg; so it is of utmost importance
that this sperm should be strong and the egg as pure and healthy
as possible.
It is really surprising that we take great care in planting a
seed-the earth is ploughed-cleared of weeds, stones etc; made
softer by watering or by rain and then the best of seed is sown
in a proper season. However, while planting a human body, no
such care is taken and is just left to an accident. It is the
bounden duty of a newly married couple to have full knowledge
of the body-the human reproduction system and of the birth of a
child besides, of course, child care.

They should go for a child only when both of them are
healthy in body and mind and are willing to take the
responsibility of the child. This is possible when the girl is more
than 18 years and the boy is over 21-preferably
24 years or more.
Prevention oi Hereditary Diseases : If the semen is
properly preserved by the husband till marriage and if the wife
has regular menstruation for at least seven times before
conception and if the couple takes acupressure treatment for at
least three to four months before the child is conceived, the
possibility of hereditary diseases can be reduced to a
minimum.
The sex glands become more active around the age of 12,
when the monthly cycle starts in girls and semen-(sperms) starts
multiplying and maturing in boys. It is like a raw clay brick and
requires heat treatment. It is worth noting that semen is not
stored anywhere in the body but it becomes syndrome of the
body and can be seen as pure white half moons in the nails (See
fig. 33).

BRAIN : THE ATOMIC REACTOR-BIO-ELECTRICITY 45
When we breathe through our right nostril, the air goes into
the brain and recharges +ve(Positive) part of our brain cells, grey
or white matter (according to Indian Yogic philosophy). At that
time, blood recharged with the air breathed in through the right
nostril goes into the first ventricle and heat (+ve) is stored. When
it reaches the peak level, the current flows towards - ve
(negative) and breathing automatically changes to the left nostril.
The cooler air then goes in the brain and charges the negative
substance, the grey matter (according to Indian yogic
philosophy). It is not known whether the white matter represents
the (+ve) positive and grey matter represents negative (-ve) or
vice-versa. The blood charged with the air breathed through the
left nostril goes into second ventricle and recharges negative till
it reaches a peak level and the current flows from the negative to
positive. Then, the breathing changes through the right nostril.
Thus the change in levels of positive and negative goes on and
the electricity so produced goes on flowing into the body. This is
why there is an automatic change in the breathing from the right
nostril to the left and vice-versa.
Now, when the cerebrospinal fluid passes through the
spinal cord and goes down from the brain to the coccyx, because
of grey and white matter in the vertebrae, electricity is produced
and stored in the prostate where it remains idle called Kundalini-
(serpent energy in yoga). Through certain yogic exercises, this
latent electric power can be awakened and made to move
upwards through different chakras (endocrine glands) (See fig.
55). When it goes up and Penetrates through Mooladhar Chakra-
(sex glands), the sex power increases. When it penetrates
Swadisthan Chakra -(Pancreas-Adrenal), it improves digestion.
When it Penetrates Vishudha Chakra-(Thyroid- Parathyroid) - it

make it strong. When it penetrates Ajna Chakra-(Pituitary gland)
one is able to command and when it penetrates Sahastrar
Chakra-(Pineal gland), there is a light which can be seen in the
middle of the forehead with closed eyes. In pranic healing, this is
called getting Golden Crown on the
head.
When the electricity reaches the brain, it slowly activates
one by one 20,000 chips of the computer and a sense of new
awakening (knowledge) starts emerging from within. One gets
new perception of things, a new meaning of life. This process of
reviving the latent electricity from the base of the body is called
the awakening of Kundalini (the serpent
power).
When the electricity penetrates through the Pituitary and
Pineal glands, there is a predominance of these glands which in
turn changes the whole character and outlook of a
person.
From persons having predominance of Pituitary gland, arise
great geniuses, eminent literary men, poets, scientists,
philosophers, philanthropists and supermen. Persons with
dominant Pineal gland, are worshipped in this world as saints,
great men, incarnations of god, gifted with divine power. They
taste heavenly bliss of self-realisation. They are an embodiment of
great wisdom and tenderness and also have strong will power.
The brain cells are so protected that efforts, so far made, in
the U. S. A. to recharge them directly have not become
successful. However, it is observed, that water charged with
gold/silver/copper has a pep-up effect on the assimilation
process in our body, as it activates the function of digestion,
heart, lungs and creation of cerebrospinal fluid.

element. While in the second figure, it is shown which

Hed the Metabolism of the body. Any disturbance (excess
less) of one element leads to disturbance in other
er
*ients and becomes the root cause of a disease.
Five Elements :
Earth : All the life forces become inert and inactive in this
element and more energy is used to keep it active. People with
more weight, flesh, fat, etc. are good example of the predominance
of this earth matter in our body. They do not show anxiety, are not
eager to acquire any thing. They try to keep away from conflict
and their life moves slowly. When there is a disorder of this
element in the body, people become selfish and get attached to
selfish enjoyments. It is a neutral
element.
Water : It keeps the flow of body and life. But it has a
natural tendency to cool down. As there is more than 70 % water
in the body, it plays a very important role in the maintenance of
heat and circulation of blood etc. It is a
negative element.
Fire : It creates fire in the body. It heats the water. It regulates
sight, provides strength to the body by digesting the food, induces
hunger and thirst, maintains suppleness of muscles and beauty of
complexion. It helps thinking and facilitates the discrimination
power of the brain. It helps the production of antibodies. In short, it
is the starter of our body-car. Defects in the same cause anaemia,
jaundice and other digestive problems. They also cause fainting,
epilepsy, derangement of the brain besides diminishing eyesight and
causing growth of cataract in the eyes, producing acidity and also
creating skin problems and depigmentation.
That is why great importance is given in the eastern therapies
to control and preserve the element of fire. It is a
positive element.
Air : Air is life itself. It is the strength and conducts every
part of our body. It regulates the function of the heart, circulation
of blood and maintains balance of the body. It helps respiration
and downward movement of stools and urine. It produces sound,
nourishes mental faculties and also the faculty of memory. It
moves bile and phlegm {Vd) which cannot move in the body by
themselves. It is a positive element.

Everyone should try and find out the category and type he

This figure clearly indicates that there should be a balance
between positive acids and negative alkalies in the body within a
normal level oi +6.5 and -6.5. If such a level is maintained, the
body remains healthy and efficient. You will notice that due to
over-working of acid proaucmg mechanism, there is increased
production of organic acids and when these are not thrown out of
the body, there is more retention of C02 (creates excess heat).
This disturbs the power flow of electricity in the body.

ACUPRESSURE : THERAPY AND
PRACTICE
From the study of these first two chapters you must have come to
know that the greatest wonder in this cosmos is the human body.
Our body is well equipped with the best, automatic, delicate but the
most powerful machines-Heart and Lungs (a non-stop pumping set)-
, Eyes-a wonderful camera-cum-projector system; Ears-an
astounding sound system; Stomach-a wonderful chemical
laboratory; Nerves -miles of communication system. Brain-an
unparalleled computer with infinite capacity. And the greatest thing
about it is the unbelievable co-ordination of all these machines so
that this body can easily work for over a hundred years or
more.
It is a fact that in any good machine, provision is made
whereby it automatically stops when there is a danger and
restarts when you push its switch e. g. refrigerator and hot
water geyser. It is not surprising that such a provision is made
in the human body also. It is true that the system of our body
is very intricate. But to maintain it is easy. Nature has
provided in our body an 'in-built mechanism' to maintain
these machines and to repair them if need be. This science
of health which makes use of this in-built mechanism is
popularly known as Acupressure. This therapy is the most
precious gift to mankind from the Creator Himself.
The Acupressure therapy was known in India even 5000
years ago, (according to Sushrut Samhita). Unfortunately, it was
not preserved properly and went to Sri Lanka (Ceylon) in the
form of Acupuncture. From Sri Lanka (Ceylon), this therapy was
taken to China and Japan by Buddhist monks or nomadic Aryans
took it there and at present China is

and keep the arms straight on the sides. Then with one hand
apply pressure on the knee of the leg of which the big toe is at a
lower level and with other hand keeping the long finger between
two big toes, try to pull up the big toe which is lower. Repeat
this action 2 to 4 times till both the big toes come in level (refer

hold the candle), cover it with a metal glass and press it for a
minute (as shown in figure 44). The air inside will burn out and
a vacuum will be created. This vacuum will bring the Solar
Plexus to the centre. Then lift the glass from one side after one
minute. Repeat this three to four times till the throbbing is felt at
the centre.

inflate the stomach and maintain that position as long as you can.
Repeat it till the Solar Plexus is
in order.
(7 ) As per fig. 39 (a) and (b) press intermittently the points of
the Solar Plexus in both the palms both in the front side and the back
side. After half a minute, check whether the Solar Plexus is in order.
Otherwise the following method can also be tried.
( 8 ) Keep your right palm
on the joint of left hand elbow
and hold hard the muscles
there. Then with a jerk bring
up the left hand and try to touch
the left shoulder with the open
thumb. Repeat five times. In the
same way, do it on the right
hand five times. Then check if
the Solar Plexus is in order as
per fig. (a) on page 73. This is
one of the easiest way.
Hence, you are advised to do so
every morning without
worrying whether the Solar
Plexus is in order t or not.
This can be done every

day morning on an empty
stomach or 3 to 4 hours after meals. Please ensure that the Solar
Plexus is in order.
After correcting the Solar Plexus, drink water or milk adding dry
ginger in it.

the points thus stimulating all the organs of the body. It is like
complete servicing of the car. And when all the organs are
properly stimulated and the endocrine glands are working
properly, you will feel more agile and energetic and can
maintain good health.
Remember that continuous pressure is not to be applied
but only intermittent pressure like pumping is to be applied
as mentioned above.
For children under 5 : For maintaining general good
health and physical development of children below 5, pressure
to be applied on each palm and sole for 2 to 3 minutes.
Prevention of Sickness or Disease : This is a very unique
feature of this therapy. When you press all the points of either
palm or sole daily for about 10 minutes, all the organs are
activated and recharged like a battery cell and all the endocrine
glands are normalized. The net result of this is that all the organs
and glands of the body get properly aligned and they function
properly, as a result of which health is maintained and the
possibility of any type of disease, including that of cancer, is
greatly reduced.
(2 ) Wonderful Way of Diagnosis-Medical Check-up :
By taking this treatment (pressing all the points daily for 10
minutes) you not only maintain good health but also get a
FREE MEDICAL CHECK-UP.
It may so happen that when you pressed all the points
yesterday, there was no pain on any point; it means that you
were in good health. But today when you press all the points,
you may find some pain inside or around some point, that means
there is something wrong with the organ connected with that
point. And this disturbance has developed in the body during the
last 24 hours. Any pain or disease of any orqan or part of the
body is reflected in the corresponding >oint of the palms or
soles. That is why this therapy is also called 'Reflexology'.
When you find the pain, it can be said the language of electricity
that the 'Fuse' has gone from
84 HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS
that part. That point would be found tender. So when you press,
the part below that point. It hurts. Thus, you become your own
doctor and can diagnose the disease instantly without any
cost or laboratory tests.
It is possible that for the first two days you may not get any
response from pressing your points because uptill now you have
not used them. However, from the third day, you will start
getting the response.
In case there is no pain on the points on palms when
pressed, press the same points in the soles. Most probably you
will observe pain on the points in the soles.
It is most important for any medical practitioner to have the
correct diagnosis of the problem of the patient before proceeding
with the treatment. The correct diagnosis is possible only when the
root cause is found out. It will be observed that apart from physical
checking, it is necessary for the doctors to have urine report, blood
report, X'ray, cardiogram, sonography and brain scanning, etc.
before the diagnosis is made. That is a lengthy and costly procedure
which most of the patients cannot afford.
Because of the rapid scientific progress, the training
necessary to master the techniques of diagnosis has become
long and expensive. In Ayurvedic, Acupuncture and Unani
systems, for example, diagnosis can be made by an expert
thorough the knowledge of Nadis (frit) and as such its study
takes more than six to ten years. In Homeopathy, prolonged
sessions with patients are necessary and so very few patients
can be attended to even by an experienced Homeopath.
While, treatment under Nature Cure is lengthy and there also
the Naturopaths in most cases do not go to the root cause.
They try to purify the body and leave the work of cure to
awakened and enriched Chetana.
However, according to Acupressure, the switchboard of this
Bio-Electricity is in palms and soles. In the figs. 39 and 40, you
will see the various points connected with their respective
corresponding organs of the body. It is further
observed that so long as this flow of bio-electricity-life current is
reaching all the organs properly, there will be NO PAIN on these
points when pressed. You will be surprised to note that
acupressure is the only therapy which prevents disease and
helps a person to maintain good health. In order to achieve this,
you simply have to press the full palm/sole slowly for 5 minutes
and the other palm/sole for 5 minutes and when the patient is over
40 years, for two minutes in the one inch circle in the middle of
right forearm (See fig. 81). Thus, by simply pressing both the
palms/soles like pumping in ten minutes, you are recharging all the
vital organs. It is like servicing or realigning a car. When all the
vital organs are working normally, the possibility of a disease
becomes very remote. Thus, just by pressing your palms or soles
for 5-5 minutes each, every day. you will not only prevent any
disease but enjoy good health.
"FREE MEDICAL CHECK-UP. At the same time, you also
get a free medical check-up of the complete body.
Diagnosis : Owing to overworking of these organs or
due to some other cause, when an organ is damaged, carbon
dioxide /toxins gather around that organ and when pressed
on the connecting point of the organ either in the palm or in
the sole of the legs; you will feel pain. This pain is unpleasant
and totally different from the experience of pressure given
on that point. And at that time, there will be a flicker, in the
eyes of the patient. So, even without any information from
the patient or without any tests the diagnosis can be made
just by giving pressure on different points located in
Palms/soles. It will be interesting for you, to know that I have
been challenged on several occasions to diagnose the
problems without being given any background or case
history of the patient. I will quote in this regard only one
incident.
Mr. Naiain. Dutt Tiwari, former Union Minister of India
»r finance and former Chiof Minister of Uttar Pradesh, called
a
to his hotel at Santacruz airport. His wife is a qualified
HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS
86
Allopathic Gynaec doctor. She asked me to examine her husband
and diagnose his problems. One by one, I pressed the
different points of the palms. In 2 minutes I told her about the
improper working of five different organs. Then when I told her that
her husband was suffering from piles and had long-rooted
constipation. She nearly jumped up, duly amazed, I told her that the
Solar Plexus of Mr. Tiwari was not in order. He was asked to lie
down and it was found that the level of the big two toes was not
equal-right big toe was more than one inch higher than the left big
toe. It was immediately corrected. Mr Tiwari was asked to give
pressure on chin to remove constipation and according to the
information received later, within a week his disease of piles was
completely cured due to proper diagnosis and correct treatment by
Acupressure.
Thus, you will observe that the pain felt at any point on the
palms or soles when pressed is a clear indication of some
problem connected with that organ. The body is divided into
right and left parts, so any problem connected with the right side
of the body will be reflected on the points on the right palm or sole
and vice versa. Further, the points of our body are subdivided into
front and back. All the organs situated in the front part of the body
e.g. eyes, heart, stomach, etc. are situated on the palms or in soles
and the points connected with the organs on the back part are
situated at the back of palms or on the upper side of the soles e.g.
spinal cord, etc.
It is interesting to note that the diagnosis made this way is
so accurate that on several occasions, I had to challenge the
diagnosis made with results of the X-rays and Sonography. I
shall quote three instances.
(1) An athlete was advised operation of the spinal cord on
the basis of few X-rays examinations. He approached me and I
told him that as there is no pain on Point No. 9 of the spinal
cord, there was no damage to the spinal cord, and so operation
was not necessary. And the root cause of his severe
ACUPRESSURE : THERAPY AND PRACTICE 87
back pain was found in the damage to his Sciatic Nerve. He was
taught how to take treatment with this 'Do it yourself therapy'
and within 10 days he was alright.
(2) A gentleman was suffering from jaundice,
according to diagnosis on the basis of X'rays and
Sonography; he was told that there was stone-obstruction in
his gall bladder and operation was necessary. I was called
three days prior to operation. After examining the patient in
three minutes; I told him that there is nothing wrong with the
gall bladder. Liver was damaged and the stone was near the
kidney. His heart was in a sound condition. So if he so desired
operation can be done. He was operated upon and his gall
bladder was removed and even after a minute bisection, no
stone was found. After 4 hours of operation, the patient was
put under X'rays. The stone was found near kidney. They
continued the operation for 8 hours and the stone was
removed. Luckily, the heart condition of the patient was good
and so he survived.
(3) A patient was told on the basis of X'rays and
examination that he had cancer of the mouth and operation
was necessary. When called to the hospital, after not even
2 minutes of examination, I told him that there was no cancer
but only soreness in the throat. Doctor insisted on operation
only to find that there was no cancer.
Thus you will observe that without any instruments or
costly tests, exact diagnosis is possible with this Nature's
Health Science of Acupressure. And this checkup is not only
equal to that of MRI Test but instant also.
When a patient comes to you, the very first thing you
can do is to press on Point No. 8 of Thyroid-parathyroid. If
there is no pain there, the problem is a minor one, because
there is a continued problem in the body for more than
!/
10 days, this point of thyroid is first to be disturbed and
v
hen pressed there will be pain. In such a case, you can go

ENDOCRINE GLANDS-REGULATORS
OF THE BODY
Nature has provided the body with proper regulators and
protectors. These are the endocrine glands. The knowledge so far
available in the west about these ductless endocrine glands in very
limited. However, yogis in India were aware of their great importance,
working and even before Ayurved-6000 years and have described
them as chakras.

These main endocrine glands produce internal secretions
which on getting mixed with the blood, go to build up the body and
maintain it in a healthy condition. The yogis have shown that these
endocrine glands - (chakras) also mould the mind and character. In
the second chapter, it is narrated that with certain yogic
exercises, the latent electricity lying at the bottom can be moved
upwards and the power of these endocrine glands can be increased
manifold. The main function of these glands is to maintain the
metabolism-(control of the five basic elements (shown in chapter II))
of the body; regulate the functions of all the organs and the brain;
also to adjust the body against changing environment and thus
protect the body against any illness. These glands play a very
important role not only in the development of our body and mind,
but also in the development of our looks and even character.
Psychological Effect of Endocrine Glands : From my
experience, I have found that even psychological problems are
connected with one or the other endocrine gland and treatment
of the same has given wonderful results. Thus, these endocrine
glands play a vital role in our well-being and
happiness.*
If these endocrine glands of our body do not function
properly, it adversely affects our nature. For example, if Adrenal
does not function properly, the working of the liver is affected
and one becomes fearful, peevish and illnatured; if Sex glands
become overactive one becomes passionate and selfish; if
Thymus is not normal, one becomes meanminded; if Pituitary is
not normal, one becomes pitiless, perpetrator of crimes and this
leads one to become a thief, a dacoit, even a
murderer.
It is, therefore, most necessary to control these endocrine
glands and this can be easily done with the treatment of
Acupressure.
* Very recently it has been discovered by urologist J. Edwin Blackwell in 1979, that
all the systems of our body can be kept functioning properly by activiting the
exocrine and endocrine glands.
ENDOCRINE GLANDS - REGULATORS OF THE BODY 99
These glands help clear the toxins from the body, clear
the dead cells from the system. But when such toxins and dead
cells are in excess in the body, these glands have to overwork
and so, they become weak and tender. At such time, when you
press on the point of these glands, it pains. If such pain
continues, it means that these glands are not able to stop the
malignant growth forming from toxins and dead cells. As such,
the first symptom to detect cancer even at a very early stage is to
find out about any pain on this gland. Moreover, during recent
observation, it has also been found that if there is a pain on these
glands and also on points of Pancreas, it indicates diabetes,
increase of glucose in the blood. Thus, you will observe that to
prevent cancer and sugar in blood, it is most necessary to keep
these glands in an active condition.
Increasing the Will-Power : Our mind has a great effect
on these glands. For example, continuous fear damages the
Pituitary gland and makes one timid. Similarly, tension and
worry disturb the Pineal gland and so leads to high B.P. and as
Pineal gland controls other glands it also disturbs other glands
and digestive system. In modern times, stress-tension or worry-
fear have increased and they often disturb these endocrine
glands. If these endocrine glands are not treated immediately, it
might lead to malfunctioning of other glands of the body. As
these glands are interrelated, whenever one gland is disturbed,
the other glands also get disturbed. So, when you press on the
points of these endocrine glands you will feel pain on points of
more than one gland especially in case of chronic diseases.
Therefore, it is very important to give treatment on all the
endocrine glands and keep them under proper control.
These glands also control the mind (the will-power). So
m order to get rid of bad habits like smoking, drinking, drug
addiction or even overeating, it is extremely necessary to give
reatment on all the endocrine glands for at least, fifteen days.
-cause, these people lack the necessary will-power to give
HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS
106
up bad habits, they often break their vows to stop such bad
habits and so they are considered unreliable. However, a
treatment of fifteen days will give them necessary will-power to
stop these bad habits after that. And they will be free from the
withdrawal symptoms of stopping these bad habits.
A Government officer had the habit of drinking alcohol
every evening. He started Acupressure treatment and drank hot
water in the evening instead. Surprisingly, he succeeded in
getting rid of his habit of drinking.
A young man was addicted to drugs in spite of many
persuasions by his mother and brother. He continued breaking
vows and taking drugs. He was advised Acupressure treatment
and so after one month he got himself free not only from drugs
but also from smoking and even
masturbation.
It has been observed that if children are taught to take
this treatment from an early age of 8-10; not only will their
physical growth be normal but they will have no problems at
the time of puberty and inclination towards delinquency and
they will become attractive and will develop a well balanced
outlook on life and will be able to live happily as
good citizens.
If the police-crime department tries this treatment on the
juveniles and criminals, it will be possible to reduce the
crime rate.
Psychological Problems : Many problems, considered to
be psychological are a result of improper functioning of the
endocrine glands. So, with proper treatment on the glands such
problems can be easily solved.
Case study : A girl with a bright record in school, had at
the age of 17, a typical problem. About 45 days before the
examination, her hands started shivering five minutes after she
started reading and the book would fall down. So she was not
able to prepare for examination and day by day she became
more and more nervous. An Acupressurist was consulted. Her
Adrenal gland was tender-damaged. On

Benefits : It increases the power of resistance of the
body against cold and bronchial infections and also against
changes in weather, fever due to cold. It gives power to the
lungs, creates heat in the body and burns up accumulated
phlegm and even fat. While practicing this mudra one must
drink plenty of green and fruit juices and water, at least 8
glasses a day.
Now, while performing these mudras if Pranayam is
done, you will get better results.
Retention of Air : While doing
Pranayam, after inhaling air press the
upper part of the Thumb no. 1 with the
index finger. You will be able to retain air
easily in the lungs for a longer time than
without such locking (See tigure 66).
^^^^^^ Fig. 66
Now if, the middle of the thumb No. 2 is
pressed, the retention increases. See fig. 66. Now if the base of
the thumb (No. 3) is pressed, the retention is maximum.
How to Increase Longevity : If there is more retention

and body. This will also mean that less breaths are taken.
According to Indian philosophy, our life span is fixed and is

down on the left side of the body, the breath will' flow from the
right nostril. In India people are advised to lie down for 10 to 15
minutes on the left side after lunch or dinner so that the breath is
linked with the sun, producing heat in the body and helping
digestion. Similarly, if you lie down on the right side, the breath
will flow from the left nostril which is useful during too much
heat or fever.
4th Method (Kapalbhati) : Sit upright in a quiet place.
Inhale and exhale very fast through the nostrils. Start with 10
times and go up to 50 times in a minute. Do this pranayam for 2
minutes/twice a day.
5th Method (Bhastrika) : Open the mouth, inhale slowly
through it and then immediately blow out hard through nostrils.
Do it for 10 to 15 times. Do this pranayam every time after you
do Kapalbhati. That will clear up congestion in the head.
Regular practice of pranayam and breathing exercises will
ensure proper oxygenation of all parts of the body and cure
many diseases. Proper oxygenation helps in purifying the blood
and removal of toxins and carbon dioxide from the body. This,
in turn, will reduce the unnecessary burden on kidney, reducing
the possibility of skin diseases and failure of kidney. Moreover,
pure blood enables proper functioning of all the organs and
thereby increases vigour and vitality.
These breathing exercises are beneficial to all and should
be practised daily. However, these exercises are a must for the
treatment of cold, cough, asthma, T.B. and mental disorders like
polio, meningitis, nervous breakdown, muscular distrophy, etc.
Time : Pranayam should be done on an empty stomach or
two hours after meals. Mudras can be done any time.
Digestive System : For good health, formation of pure mood
is most important. Pure blood is formed from the food nd drink
we take and digest. Therefore, it is necessary to e proper
attention to our digestive system.

NATURE CURE
Nature cure means following the rules of Nature and curing
the disease with the help of the elements of Nature viz. earth,
water, sun and air, in such a way that toxins collected in the
body are thrown out so that body becomes pure and life current
powerful. This enables the body to cure the diseases and make
the body work efficiently.
Earth / Mud : Due to the rising problems of germs in the
earth, the placing of wet mud pack on the stomach and other
affected parts is less advocated. However, the paste of green
juice can be applied. Such a pack can be put on the eyes,
stomach and skin . When it becomes dry, green juice can be
sprinkled on it or the green pack can be changed. For better
results, after applying green pack, sunrays or Blue light can be
taken on it. The results are wonderful even in case of white spots
(lerikoderma/leprosy.)
Water : (1) Drink plenty of water 8 to 10 glasses every
day. In India, there was a custom of drinking 2 to 3 glasses of
water kept overnight in a copper vessel and then walk for about
one mile before going to the toilet in the open. Recently, a
Japanese professor tried this method on 30,000 people and was
convinced of the great benefits of drinking first thing in the
morning, 2 to 3 glasses of water boiled the previous night and
kept in a metal vessel.
Drinking water in the morning : Keep boiled water in a
metal vessel preferably copper overnight. In the morning even
without cleaning the teeth or gargling, drink 3 to 5 glasses of
this water. You can begin with 1 to 2 glasses. Increase the
guantity to 4 to 5 glasses of water i.e 1 litre to
1-litres. Then walk for 10/15 minutes. If walking is not
possible, lie down on back and roll wooden roller on the
stomach. This practice will remove not only constipation but
HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS
132
also excess heat from the body and many diseases connected
with excess heat. Before drinking water in the morning, check up
the Solar Plexus and correct it if necessary. During the day also
drink plenty of water-8 to 10 glasses of water. The habit of
drinking water in the morning plus doing Acupressure regularly
will greatly minimise the possibility of
diseases.
( 2 ) Use of hot and cold pack is shown on page 200 of this
book. Application of cold pack helps in reducing fever and
removing the morbid matter (toxin) from the body. Hot pack on
the other hand relieves pain and swelling.
(3) Vapour treatment and steam bath are useful to drive out
the cold and toxins from the affected part through perspiration
and increased circulation of blood. It is very useful in polio,
arthritis, rheumatism, paralysis, etc.
(4) Moreover, if facilities are available, one can take
hip bath in a tub filled with cold and hot water. The level of
water should be upto the navel.
(5) In case of fever, wet cotton bedsheet can be
wrapped over the body and covered with woollen blanket for
15 to 30 minutes. This can be repeated after 1 to 2 hours if
necessary.
Air : Pure air is a great doctor. Methods of easy Pranayams
are, therefore shown in this book on page 111/113. If Mudras,
shown on page are also carried out at the same time, better and
faster results can be obtained.
Sun : As it is of utmost importance a special chapter No. 7
is devoted to it in this book.
Diet : As mentioned in chapter 2, natural products like
vegetables, fruits, sprouted pulses have equal quantity of positive
and negative sun energy stored in them. Therefore, they are
easily digested and they give the maximum energy. Fasting : In
order to remove the toxins mostly in the digestive organs,
fasting of 24 to 72 hours or more is advocated. During fasting
it is advisable to drink lukewarm boiled water and green juices.
One can make it a practice to
133
NATURE CURE
skip a meal once a week. Skip meals for a day once a month and
remain on boiled water, green juices and fruit juices for three
days in a year. Such fasts should be broken with fruit
juices.
Body and its electricity : The best element of Nature is
our body (its bio-energy) and one can easily use it oneself
through. Acupressure which has been narrated in this book at
length.
One should not forget that even an advanced and best, man
is also an animal of Nature and therefore more and more use of
these basic elements of nature will give good health. For faster
and guaranteed results, use of these therapies of nature to the
maximum extent should be made simultaneously.
CHROMOTHERAPY-USE OF
COLOURS OF THE SUN
In the Vedas, the sun is greatly praised and rightly so. Our
cosmos exists because of the sun. All the living beings get their
energy from the sun. And this energy is abundant and unlimited,
so it should be used to the maximum.
The sun looks white, but it consists of seven colours viz.
violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red. Out of these
the first three have cool effect on the body and are also
antiseptic. The last three colours create heat. Green is
neutral.
Dr Edwin D. Babit, M.D. of U.S.A. proved with
experiments that in all types of patients even with chronic and
dreaded diseases, this chromotherapy is very effective. The effect
of different colours on different diseases : Violet : bones &
bone marrow, tumour, baldness, cataract, blindness.
Indigo : eyes-nose-throat problems, facial paralysis,
diseases of the lungs, asthma, T.B., less digestive power,
problems of nervous system, convulsion, lunacy.
Blue : whooping cough, all types of diseases, due to excess
heat in the body e.g. problems in throat, fever, typhoid, small-
pox, measles, ulcers in mouth, cholera, swelling in the brain,
problems of nerves, insomnia, mental depression, problems of
semen-discharge, burns, bleeding from nose, etc.
Dr Edwin Babit calls the blue colour as the world's best
antiseptic and that is why the cloudless blue sky during the day
has great beneficial influence on the world.
Green : heart problems, low & high B.P., skin problems,
cancer, influenza, syphilis, pain in the eyes, etc.
134
CHROMOTHERAPY-USE OF COLOURS OF THE SUN 135
URINE THERAPY
-
Even the allopathic doctors in the west, have accepted that
to fight and clear toxins from the body, our own body creates
antibodies. Now, during sleep the computer of our body
manufactures such medicine according to specific requirements
of the individual and is present in a big quantity in the first urine
in the morning. And so, if the first urine is drunk, the body will
get all its requirements, salts, etc. This is the principle of this
therapy. Realising its great medicinal value, costly life saving
injections are prepared from urine in
Japan.
It may be surprising to note that even in the religious
scriptures like Shivpuran, Mahabharat, Bible, etc., it is
mentioned that this urine is the nectar of life and details about
how to drink the same are very well narrated in Shivpuran. Even
the culprits know the benefit of the urine. Whenever they are
caught, the first thing they do, is to drink their own urine, so that
when they get a heavy beating, they can recover from it very
soon. Even in long fasting, it is advised to drink one's urine.
Sri Morarjibhai Desai, the former Prime Minister of India
and a great propagator of this Urine therapy, used to drink his
urine and massage the same on his body for 40 years till his
death at the age of 100. That was the secret of his reddishness till
the last minute. His skin was healthy and had no wrinkles. It was
smooth and glowing.
At the age of 61, cataract started in his eyes. He started
using his urine as eye-wash and cured his cataract and had no
need to get cataract removed till the age of 91-thus he prevented
cataract formation for 30 years.
In all types of chronic diseases, it is advisable to drink one's
urine. Dr Beatrice Barter of U.S.A claims to have cured even
patients of AIDS with urine therapy. I am of the opinion, that if
treatment mentioned in this book for cancer of blood

CHAPTER 10
CHILD CARE
Children are like the flowers of the Garden-that is-this
world, and we all would like them to blossom fully. Children are
closer to God, and so their divine laughter is always enchanting.
It is no wonder then that Mahatma Gandhi and Pandit Jawaharlal
Nehru saw the image of God in them.
If we want to stop wars and unnecessary killings on this
planet, we must all start taking care of children not only of their
physical health but also of their mental health and make sure
that when they grow up, they have a healthy and happy approach
towards life.
The care of children's health does not start only after their
birth. Even before the baby is conceived in the mother's womb,
both the parents must take care to see to it that they themselves
are in proper healthy condition of mind and body so that the
child to be born does not inherit any disease of the mind or
body.
Planning of Children :
This can be considered in three parts : (1) Before
conception, (2) During conception and (3) After conception.
(1) (a) Parenthood should be properly planned and should
not be a matter of accident. It has been found by the western
people that oral contraceptives have harmful
I
side-effects and so are no longer recommended, (b) The
couple must start the treatment under Acupressure
therapy at least 3 months prior to conceiving, to ensure their
proper health, creation of hormones and curing of any
possible disease that they themselves suffer from.
(c) The couple should drink one glass each of
gold/silver/copper/iron charged water (4 glasses reduced to
2 glasses) per day.
(d) The wife must have 5 to 7 regular menses before
conceiving.
143
HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS
144
The total effect of the above would be to get a fully
developed, healthy, child with the possibility of inheriting
hereditary problems reduced to the minimum. Even those
couples desiring children but not getting them would get
their desire fulfilled if they take treatment, especially on both
the sides of the two wrists for 4 to 6 minutes (Pressure Points
No. 11 to 15), daily alongwith the treatment mentioned
above.
(2) How to get the child of the desired sex : Please refer
to page no. 114 about Pranayam. It is claimed by Ayurved that
the following methods, if followed by the couple, will give them
the child of the desired sex.
(a) The day on which the menses are seen, is to be
counted as the first day.
(b) During the period of flow, the couple should strictly
avoid intercourse. For guaranteed results, intercourse is to be
done only once in a month on any one of the dates mentioned
below. Continue the plan till baby is conceived.
(c) For getting a son : On the even dates, i. e. 4th, 6th, 8th,
10th, 12th, or 14th day, the husband should lie with his wife on
his left side for 15 minutes so that he would be breathing with
his right nostril before the intercourse.
(d) For getting a daughter : On the odd dates i. e. 5th, 7th,
9th, 11th, 13th or 15th day, the husband should lie with his wife
on his right side for 15 minutes so that he would be breathing
with his left nostril before the intercourse.
It has also been advised in Ayurved that if the intercourse is
done during the later dates (10th to 15th) there is a greater
possibility of conceiving and the child to be born will be
healthier.
( 3 ) (a) After the baby is conceived, the mother should take
proper care about its nourishment. She should eat plenty of
seasonal fruits. In order to get natural calcium, she should
CHILD CARE 145
drink more milk and eat bananas. Otherwise she should take
daily 4 pills in morning and 4 pills in the evening of Cal. phos
12x+Cal. Fl. 12x (mixed together-Biochemic medicines) for
calcium. If sufficient calcium is taken throughout the pregnancy
and proper diet is taken by the mother, the child to be born will
not have any problem of teeth and bone development later on.
According to the research work done in China, it has been found
out that if properly controlled diet is taken by the mother during
pregnancy, the child will have less craving for sweet things like
chocolates, biscuits, etc.
Now, if the newly born child is not given sweets for twelve
months, then according to American Dentist Association, the
possibility of having a dental problem in child's life will be
reduced.
(b) The expectant mother should practise the Acu
pressure therapy daily to ensure good health and freedom
from disease and to reduce the possibility of miscarriage.
Atleast give pressure treatment on the two sides of the wrists
to prevent miscarriage.
(c) The expectant mother should drink iron/copper/
silver and gold charged water, two glasses reduced from four
glasses. This will ensure the birth of a healthy baby and
reduce the possibility of the baby being blind and that of
retardedness or muscular distrophy, etc. after its birth.
(d) The expectant mother should do some light exercise
daily at least walking 2 to 3 kilometres.
(e) The child starts learning while in the mother's
womb, The cases of Abhimanyu and Shukdev are very
famous. So the expectant mother must try to be cheerful, read
and listen to books on religion, art, music and culture, etc.
(f) The husband should also help the wife in all these
activities and keep her cheerful during this vital period of
Pregnancy.
Care after the birth of a baby : The birth of a healthy

( 8 ) If least once in 15 days, skip one feeding, give warm
water/green juice.
( 9 ) Every week give mild laxative like harde.
CHAPTER 11
WOMEN'S PROBLEMS
Woman is different from man as regards sex and
temperament. Moreover, Nature has given her an additional
responsibility of becoming a mother. She has to pay special
attention not only to maintain good health but also to remain
calm and happy. She also needs proper education on childcare
and household duties. She will be capable of handling all these
responsibilities properly, if she is healthy. It would greatly
benefit women to learn about Acupressure. Regular
Acupressure treatment will help them to prevent nervous
tension and breakdown, hysteria, timidness, frigidity, etc. It
is advisable for them to take the treatment shown for
nervous tension and on all the endocrine glands from an
early age of 6 - 7 years onwards. This will also save them
from the problems of menses and ensure healthy growth of
their body and mind.
(1) Problems of Menses : In problems of menstruation,
namely early, irregular or painful menstruation, scanty or
excessive bleeding or backache, before, during or after
menses, etc. treatment of points No. 11 to 15 and on all points
of endocrine glands will show amazing results. Such
treatment can be taken by massaging these points on the two
sides of the wrists.
If this treatment is continued menstruation will be regular
within 2 to 3 months and all the problems connected with it will
be solved.
Dr 'K' reports that Miss 'T had the problem of scanty and
painful menstruation while Mrs. 'Y' had excessive bleeding. In
both the cases treatment was given on points No. 11 to 15 and
the patients were cured effectively. There were no complaints
afterwards. A number of similar cases have been treated
successfully by Acupressure therapy.
(2) Profuse Bleeding : In case of excessive bleeding,
rubber bands may be applied on the base of both the big toes
for 3/5 minutes and this may be repeated after 15/20
minutes, if necessary (Fig. 71).
151
152 HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS
(3 )
Leucorrhoea :
For leucorrhoea also,
treatment on Points No. 11
to 15 will be useful. It is
also advisable to drink
g o l d / s i l v e r / copper
charged water (1 glass
reduced from 2 glasses).
Moreover, take the
treatment of Anaemia as
mentioned below. Also sit
on a ball for 5 to 10
minutes twice a day as
shown in fig. 80.
Mrs. 'Y' was
suffering from leucorrhoea
for the past
seven years and had tried many medicines without success. After
just 3 sittings of Acupressure treatment, 70 % of her complaints
had gone and within 20 days of this treatment she was free from
the dreaded disease.
( 4 ) Menopause : For ladies over 40 years, this problem
can start especially in the case of those who are less active and
rather more sentimental and care more for the family.
With regular treatment on all points especially
No. 11 to 15 and all endocrine glands and treatment for
nervous tension, this problem can be solved easily. Even the
period of menses will be prolonged. There will be more
interest and joy in married life and the diseases connected
with this period will be easily overcome. After the age of 40,
all the women should make this treatment their daily routine.
Further, treatment on these points will save women from
timidness and frigitidy.
( 5 ) Planning forchildren : Before planning for children, it
is essential for the couple to have this treatment for at least 3 to 4
months before conceiving the child in order to prevent any
hereditary disease. For those couples not getting children, such
treatment for 4 to 6 months, taken by both, greatly enhances the
chances of conceiving.

HOW TO PREVENT OLD AGE AND MAINTAIN YOUTHFULNESS 163
From the figure 84 about rotation of the moon around the earth,
you will observe that on the 4th, 5th, 8th, 11th, 14th, and 15th, 19th,
23rd, 26th and 29/30th of moon- days, the earth and our body come
directly against the moon. At that time the water level in the sea and in
our body rises. And so, on these moon days, in the Indian religions,
particularly, in Jainism, people are advised-
( 1) to observe complete fast, (not to drink even water, if
possible) or
( 2 ) to eat only once, or ( 3 ) to
eat only twice, or
(4) at least to avoid eating green vegetables (as they contain
about 90% water) and thus control the water in the body, thereby
reducing the chances of cold.
People suffering from chronic colds or sinus trouble or having
allergy to cold should try to carry out as many of the above restrictions
as possible. Moreover, these restrictions can be observed on a national
scale in countries like U.K. and Japan where cold is quite common
throughout the year.
It will also be observed that on the full moon day or the new
moon day, the effect of the moon is most powerful. At that time owing
to the aggravation of the water substance in the body, the heat in the
body decreases and thereby the air content increases. It travels to the
head and causes mental disturbances. Recently, a scientist in Chicago
(U.S.A.) has confirmed the existence of such an effect of the moon on
mental diseases. Therefore, the best treatment for
cold is -
(1) to reduce the intake of food containing much water.
( 2 ) to eat warm, light food.
( 3 ) to drink lukewarm health drink.
( 4 ) to gargle three times with salted lukewarm water.
( 5 ) to take the treatment on Point Nos. 1 to 7, 34 and 30.
( 6 ) to practise the sun pranayam.
Cold due to Heat : The other reason for headache and cold is
sluggish liver. As a result of less biles, the food is not
TREATMENT OF COMMON DISEASES 175
turned into alkali and so the acidity in the stomach and intestine which
is called 'Pitta' (ftrf) increases. That leads to the warming of air in the
stomach. This heated air occupies the empty spaces in the head and
the face. Now during the day, whenever this heated air is cooled, due
to the cold wind, the running of fan over the head or sitting in an air
conditioned place, it gathers moisture and becomes water. This cooled
water contracts the nerves leading to headache and sinus trouble.
When the accumulated cold starts coming down, it irritates the throat
and the nose and leads to tonsils and causes sneezing and running of
water through the nose. In such a cold, the chest is clear. Now, in such
cases of cold, any pain reliever upsets the stomach and in the long run
leads to ulcer and hyper-acidity. It is observed that this type of cold is
aggravated in summer and autumn. At such a time, when pressed,
there is a pain on Point No. 28 of the Adrenal gland.
The best way to remove this excess of heat from the system is to
take Harde powder (^fcr ^t ^fi) (powder of Terminalia, Chebula Retz).
In 2 to 3 grams of this powder add 1 gram of sugar. Take this the first
thing in the morning with lukewarm water. This may cause one or two
loose motions. This treatment is to be continued for a week, and
afterwards only once or twice a week. If such powder is not available,
drink one glass of water or fruit juice or one cup of green juice the
first thing in the morning after cleaning the mouth.
Secondly, all points connected with cold are to be pressed i.e.
Nos. 1 to 7, 30 and 34.
Thirdly, the points of the Adrenal gland, liver, gall bladder,
stomach and Solar Plexus i.e. Point Nos. 28, 23, 22, 27 and 29 are to
be pressed.
Fourthly, in the case of an old complaint, it is useful to take the
following medicine for 4 weeks. It helps the digestive system.
176 HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS
Nux Vomica 200-4 pills twice in a day but once a week Nux

It is claimed by The Indian Ayurvedic Science that Harde
powder is not habit-forming and can be safely given to small
children duly mixed with honey. This can solve many a problem
connected with constipation. Moreover, it is claimed that if
Harde powder is taken regularly for 45 to 60 days the first thing
in the morning and lukewarm water is drunk throughout the day,
it helps a lot in reducing the fat in the body. During such a
course, light food is to be taken only twice a day, after having at
least two loose motions.
Fifthly, take out excess heat from the body by any of the
methods shown at the end of this book, under 'useful hints.'-page
260; 2 (a), 8 (b).
COMMON COMPLAINTS Acupressure
treatment for some of the common ailments is given below.
If necessary, the treatment may be supplemented by
Ayurvedic or Homeopathic/Bio-chemic medicines and other
treatment also mentioned herein.
(1) Cold and Cough : This is a very common complaint
occuring either due to a change in the climate or owing to
indigestion, overfeeding and consuming of raw
sugar. Treat on all points twice daily plus Point
No.l to 7, 30 and 34, and in the case of
children, Point No. 38 also. Please give the
child only lukewarm water to drink and give
the treatment for constipation.
(2 ) Blocked Nose : In case of cold and
sinus, many times the nose gets blocked. Take
treatment for 2 to 3 minutes on the point of
forehead and on the point on both the sides of
the nose for immediate relief. (See the figure)

( 6 ) On the spot of wisdom tooth, pressure may be given
by cotton/rubber studded wooden stick or by chewing there soft
clean rubber/eraser.
The results are amazing. Continue the treatment for further
30 days even after recovery.
Mr. D aged 60 had lost his hearing power for 5 years. He
was given treatment on Point No. 31 of ears. To his
astonishment, within a month, he was able to hear.
A baby aged 7 was reported to be deaf since birth. She was
given this treatment. Within 60 days improvement was noticed
and normalcy was restored within 120 days.
(29) Dumbness : Dumbness is mostly due to deafness.
So treat such patient for deafness and press the tips of all the
fingers and toes. This treatment can also be given when the
patient is not able to speak clearly or stammers. In such cases,
please give treatment on vertebra No. 4 of the spinal cord
(Page 168, fig. 83).
(30) Hiccough : Press hard on the back of the first knot
of the middle finger as shown in fig. 87 for whooping cough,
or bring the tongue outside the mouth as far as possible and
hold it in the same position for 1 to 2 minutes. Check the
Solar Plexus and correct it if necessary.
(31) Sunstroke, Heat
stroke, Fainting, Bleeding
through the Nose : Take the
treatment on tips of fingers and
toes and press hard on the point
below the nose and above the
upper lip as shown in the figure.

Then take the head of the patient in both the hands and
rotate it slowly but steadily and with as much pressure as
possible in a round, circle, upper, sideways, down the other side
and rotate it for 3 to 4 times without giving jerks as per fig. 103.
Fig. 103
Then ask the patient to relax the head and keep it down on
folded hands. Now go to the lower side of the body. Lift one leg
and slowly bend it so that the heel touches the buttock. Then
follow the same process with the other leg. Repeat 3 times. Then
take both the legs and bend them slowly on both the buttocks
simultaneously as per fig. 103. In the first sitting do not give
more pressure. The patient may find pain, may cry out in agony
for half a minute. But afterwards, there will be great relief as the
sciatic nerve gets freed.
If necessary, repeat this treatment after one to two days.
With only 2 to 5 sittings, in most of the cases, the patient will
get cured. If not, the patient can consult an osteopath or an
orthopaedic surgeon. If the patient has already undergone an
operation of the spinal cord or the knee within one year this
treatment should not be taken.

as possible. Press Point Nos. 19, 22, 23, 26, 27 and 38 on the
soles and palms. Correct Solar Plexus. Check for worms and
remove them, if found.
(8) Heart Attack : Heart is a muscular structure and
supposed to work throughout one's life time. When you have
pain in the chest, please check Point No. 36 by pressing it. If
there is no pain, it means that the cause for this chest pain is
not in the heart. In that case :
( 1) Check the Solar Plexus. If it is not in order, there could
be gas trouble. Correct it.
( 2 ) It can be muscular pain starting from vertebrae 6 to 8.
In such a case, give treatment for 3 to 5 minutes on the point of
middle of the back hand as shown in the fig. 105. Later on, rub
eucalyptus oil or pain balm on the chest as well as around
vertebrae No. 4 to 8 of the spinal column.
If there is pain on Point No. 36, it means the cause of
the trouble is in the heart. Immediately take bed rest for 72
hours and start taking the following treatment:
( 1) Give treatment on Point No. 36 and 1 to 5 for two
minutes each twice a day.
( 2 ) Give treatment on all the other points on each palm for
5 minutes twice a day.
( 3 ) Drink lukewarm concentrated gold/silver/copper
charged water (8 glasses reduced to 2 glasses) 2 glasses a day
for 1 month. Then daily 2 glasses reduced from 4 glasses for
further 60 days.
( 4 ) Take one pomegranate a day. Either eat it or drink its
juice. Just within 30 days, the level of cholesterol will become
normal. For prevention, it is advised to eat one pomegranate for
30 days every year.
( 5 ) Practise Pranayan - stop worrying.
210 HEALTH IN YOUR HANDS
During the rest, think over your life style. You will be able
to trace the root cause. Such a root cause must be removed.
Otherwise, there can be another heart attack.
Afterwards, lead a normal life, practise Pranayam and do
jogging for at least 3 minutes regularly. Continue the treatment
on all points and Point No. 36 once a day. Drink
gold/silver/copper charged water for a month. (8 glasses reduced
to 2 glasses)
(6) It has been observed that masturbation in early youth is
also one of the root causes of heart attack between the age of 40
to 50. With such previous history, please read the chapter for
"Men's Problem" and control sex desire accordingly.
( 7 ) Make a mixture of powders of 100 grams of dried
coriander seeds (?J%TT) + 100 grams of dried cumin seed (^kr).
Keep it in a bottle. Eat 1 teaspoonful of this powder morning
and evening for 40/50 days. This helps in clearing the blockade
if any, and prevents operation for byepass surgery. This powder
is a good anti-oxidant and controls cholestrol.
Please note that giving two minutes treatment a day on
Point No. 36 is like putting a pace maker in the body.
Cholesterol: Reduce fat from diet, drink one glass of fresh
juice of pomegranate for 25 to 30 days. OR Put 2 teaspoonful of
dried coriander (sFTteTT) in 4 glasses of water. Boil it and
reduce it to 2 glasses. Drink this water daily for 30 days. This
will bring cholesterol under control.
If any of these juices or drinks is taken for 30 days in a
year, it will control cholesterol.
Case Study 1 : Mrs. 'C aged 75 had to be admitted to the
intensive care unit, but she was bored. Her son learnt about
Acupressure, brought his mother home and started giving
treatment on all the points including Point No. 36 for heart.
Today alter about lour years, she moves freely around the house
and is able to look after herself.
TREATMENT OF SERIOUS DISEASES 211
Case study 2 : Mr. 'B' had a heart attack for the second
time. In angiography 70 % blockade was found in the arteries
and so was advised byepass surgery. His sons fixed up the date.
Before that I was consulted. I suggested above mentioned
treatment. He postponed the operation and followed this
treatment very religiously. After 35 days, he again got another
angiography and the very same heart specialist declared him to
be okay and said that operation was not necessary. Now he is
able to live a normal life and he preaches Acupressure.
In the same way thousands of patients have gone home
from intensive care and taken this treatment. Also hundreds of
operations for byepass surgery are prevented.
(9) Diabetes : Our body requires glucose for energy and so
wherever possible take glucose in the natural form, from fruits,
its juices, honey, cereals, etc. Moreover this glucose/sugar is
easily digestible if it is mixed with saliva. In order to control
diabetes, it is utmost necessary to chew at least 15 times not
only eatables but also drinks. This habit of chewing properly
should be formed right from childhood.
Further, instead of adding sugar to the milk make it a
practise to drink it plain or add a little turmeric powder that
gives milk a good taste and also helps the purification of blood,
thus leading to healthy skin.
Root Causes and their Cure :
(1) Tension : Remove it as per guideli aes given on
page 217 for nervous tension.
(2) Pancreas : In case you find pain on Point No. 25
when pressed, it denotes that this gland is not functioning
properly and so enough insulin is not produced to digest the
sugar. At that time, if the blood is tested, 2 % or more sugar
will be found in urine.
For correcting this problem, it is necesary to give treatment
on all the endocrine glands. Please note that just by giving this
treatment Pancreas can be activated.

At the same time, ask the
patient to rub from the middle
of the chest to the sides 2 to 5
minutes. Also give treatment
for 1 minute on the point
shown below the throat neck
Fig. 107 See fig. 107.
These pressing on the back and rubbing on chest are also
very useful and effective at the time of an attack of asthma
breathlessness..
It may be noted that during this treatment, cold will
increase and that is a positive sign of recovery. In that case drink
hot/lukewarm water, reduce food/take more of fruits/green
juices enabling the body to throw out excess water and toxins
from the system.
Breathlessness : Press on the points on the back and rub on
the chest as shown above. Also do sun Pranayam taking quick
short breaths as much as possible. Once you start feeling better
finish the Pranayam with prolonged breaths-alternatively from
right and left nostril-repeat it at least 10/20 times. Also do Kapal
Bhati and Bhrutsana as mentioned in chapter 5, pages 117 -118.
It could also be due to blockade in arteries of heart, check Point
No. 36 and if it hurts, take treatment as mentioned under (8) of
this chapter.

Boil this urine and allow it to cool. Remove the crust from
the urine.
In case, gangrene is in the leg, apply ice manufactured out
of ammonia (not from the fridge) and apply it from hips to toes
especially on all joints for 3 to 5 minutes. Afterwards, massage
the above mentioned warm urine with cotton on all the parts
from hips to toes, and rub this warm urine for 5 to 7 minutes on
the affected parts. Cover the affected part with cotton and
bandage it. After 2 hours, clean the affected part with dettol,
savlon or any antiseptic. Repeat the same treatment in the
evening. Within 2 to 5 days, the affected parts will dry up and
gangrene will be cured.
In the same way, in the case of gangrene is on the back
apply ice from the starting point of the spinal cord up to the
thighs, especially on all the joints and then apply warm urine on
all the parts and especially massage the affected part with urine
for 5 to 7 minutes.
Also take treatment on Point No. 16, lymph gland for 2
minutes, 3 times a day and drink 2 glasses of charged water
reduced from 6 glasses.
(23) Syphilis and other Venereal Diseases : (1) Mas

Continue this treatment twice a day for 3 to 4 days. Also take
the treatment for the control of sex desire as mentioned in
chapter 12, page 158.
(24) Cancer : It is a man-made dreaded disease. The
main point of worry in the case of cancer is that when it is
detected, it has already reached an advanced stage and the
possibility of complete cure is remote. Moreover, the
treatment is so costly that the patient and his/her relatives
get financially and mentally exhausted.

INSTRUCTIONS TO
THE PRACTITIONERS
(1) The practitioners of the Acupressure Therapy must
study Physiology thoroughly so that he/she becomes well
conversant with the functioning of the body. This will help
them to diagnose the root cause of a disease properly.
(2) In case of any problem, just check up the Solar
Plexus, and set it right if it is not in order (see page 65).
Secondly, see that the network of nerves passing through the
spinal cord is in order. Otherwise, correct it as shown in
fig. 83.
(3) He/she should confine the total treatment to not
more than five minutes on the first three days.
( 4 ) Subsequently, longer treatment (2 to 3 minutes) on
each point is possible on the soles but do not give more than 2
minutes treatment on any one point of the palms.
(5) After other points are treated, treatment must be given
on Point No. 26 of the kidney on both the palms or soles because
the toxins thrown out by the other organs of the body will come
to the kidneys. So, the kidneys must be activated to throw out
these poisons/toxins from the body.
( 6 ) In case there is pain on more than 3 points on the palm
or sole, it is a clear sign that the life battery has become weak.
So, in such cases and in cases of chronic diseases, the patient
must be advised to drink lukewarm copper/silver/ gold charged
water and health drink at least 2 to 3 times during the day.
Moreover, light food and longer hours of sleep are a must. This
will help the patient to recharge and empower his life battery
and he will get cured fast.

CHAPTER 18
CONCLUSION
In treating any disease, find out the root cause first. It is
necessary to remove the root cause of the disease to cure it
permanently. For example, piles are caused by continuous
constipation. Therefore to cure piles, constipation should be
treated first.
In the same way, cough and cold are caused by constipation
and weak digestive power. Therefore, the root causes should be
removed when taking treatment for that particular disease.
Mind : Mind has a great control over our body. A happy
(healthy) mind in a healthy body is the goal to be attained.
Happiness of mind can be achieved by stopping all
unnecessary worries. It will be observed that in Nature, nobody
worries for future. If a list is made of all the worries, it will be
found that most of them are unnecessary and could be easily
avoided.
It has been observed that in most of the psychological
problems, the endocrine glands are disturbed and not corrected
afterwards. In such cases, treatment on all the endocrine glands
would prove highly beneficial.
Secondly, everybody should take interest in others and in
literature, music, art, sports, etc. (fine arts)
The third and the most important point is :
To love all beings and be friendly with them :
To forgive them all and ask them to forgive you.
Please note that:
To give is Divine.
To earn a living honestly is Human.
To snatch others' property and cause pain to others in body,
by words or even mentally is a sin.

NEW CONCEPT ABOUT ENERGY
The therapies of Acupressure, Acupuncture, Shiatsu, etc.
are based on the principle of bio-electricity. Moreover, E.E.G.
and E.C.G. also prove the existence of electricity flowing in the
body, So, to function properly, the human body requires
electricity with equal positive and negative charge. It has been
proved that excess of positive electricity creates excess of heat
in the body-leading to many problems of hyperacidity-sluggish
liver, damage to the brain, etc. and other diseases. Excess of
negative electricity leads to excess of water content in the body,
reducing the digestion power in the body. That is why the food
we take should be as far as possible balanced in positive and
negative electric charges.
It is a well-known fact of science that energy cannot be
created, it can only be transformed. Now due to combustion of
hydrogen gas, the sun has become a tremendous powerhouse of
energy. This is received on the earth in the form of sunlight
which not only gives us light and heat but also electric energy.
All the vegetation, fruits, crops, etc. is there only because of the
sun. The cereals, pulses go on collecting this solar energy for 30
to 45 days after the bush has developed. And when this staple
food is consumed, it is converted into energy in our body. In the
same way, the fruits gather this solar energy and grow bigger
and ripen and when eaten they give good amount of nutrition,
Likewise, this solar energy is collected by the grass and leaves.
The thicker the leaves, the more is solar energy and medicinal
value they have. Moreover, green grass and leaves are easily
digestible and contain in them equal quantity of positive and
negative electricity. The mammals like goat, cow, buffalo and
camel consume green grass and leaves and convert the hidden
energy into nutritious milk. Animals like the horse, the
rhinoceros and the elephant live only on this vegetation and are
considered to be the strongest. Now, we can tap this abundant
and free energy for our body. It is true that we

the day. This clearly proves that the human body can stay healthy and
capable of doing the daily chores with the minimum of food. This fact
is also proved by Mahatma Gandhiji, Shri Vinoba Bhave, Morarji
Desai and many others. Moreover, it also proves that there is no
necessity of eating meat, fish, eggs, etc. to get more energy.
If all the people gradually follow this principle of reducing the
food intake and supplementing it with green juice, fruits, etc., there
will be enough food available on the earth and there will not be any
more famine. Moreover, the body will remain healthy and most of the
problems of indigestion, overweight, etc. will be controlled auto-
matically. It may be noted that just by consuming more juice of
GREEN, people will become EVERGREEN.
