skin problems, Principles of breathing techniques

January 11, 2006

Dear Jagannath

Skin problems errupting during alternative treatment is one issue

which makes patients want to jump back over the iron curtain between

conventional and alternative medicine. Thus a conventional patient

would like to come to alternative, or an ill-informed alternative

patient would like to go back to allopathy. Hence this requires

emphasis. Generally such problems are of temporary nature, and body

will emerge cleaner with a healthy and shining skin, as more oxygen

can be breathed by skin. Skin is not only a largest organ, but an

organ exposing largest surface to oxygen. Purpose of skin is not only

to protect organs from external attack, but to breath oxygen and also

expel toxins which otherwise can not be eliminated through other

routes.

Another very minor purpose of this post is to explain the reasons

for " Agnihotra " which was an enquiry in one recent post on this list.

Author wishes to point out how safe and inexpensive are oriental

naturopathy techniques of healing, as compared to some modern methods

of alternative healing. The basic principle of breathing techniques

of Patanjali yoga, as taught by Baba Ramdev, breathing techniques

taught by Tantric master Guru Padmasambhava, oxygen and ozone therapy

in west are same. Oxidizing the toxins by use of oxygen or more

active ozone. Higher proportion of oxygen in blood cleanses the blood

of toxins and also all microbes. It is well known that Cancer cells

divide rapidly in an environment having less oxygen, and thrive by

using sugar. Normal cells and immune system cells become stronger if

more oxygen exists. More or less same principle extends to parasites,

microbes invading the body.

The skin problems when this higher energy route is adopted are best

described by Dr Saul Pressman:

http://health.ozonetherapy/messages/1

" Unlike other methods of ozone application, employing ozone in a

steam sauna will

induce the " healing crisis " , which feels like having the flu for a

few days.

Patients should be informed of this effect so they can be prepared,

and welcome

it as a sign of beneficial healing. Skin rashes are common as the

toxins are

pushed out through the skin rapidly. Often the rash is very itchy,

and this can

be alleviated by using colloidal silver water and taking protease

enzymes in

large amounts.

The more frequent the treatments, the more rapid the healing, and the

more

severe the healing reactions will be. It may become so uncomfortable

that the

patient will need to reduce the frequency of treatments from once

daily to once

weekly. "

Despite this warning, in order to appreciate how this healing crisis

can assume alarming status, is demonstrated by a case of a tough

farmer:

http://health.ozonetherapy/messages/1994

" He has had 35 saunas in 37 days. On the 7th day he started having

the chills, fever, diarrhea and general body aching. The flu

symptoms were gone in approx. 4 days. General body aching lasted

approximately two weeks. In this two week period he seeded 2500

acres which translates into 15 hour work days. He spit out mucous

out of his throat continuously. Approx. on the 25th day he developed

oozing weeping welts around the groin and uptowards the hip. Rash on

back, arms...now it is spreading to his stomach and legs.

Do you have any thoughts on how long to expect this to continue or is

this an unfair question since everyone is different? What other

healing crisis issues can we expect?

Thank you...Harriet

Dear Harriet,

That is excellent news!

He is experiencing the healing crisis, which means he is on the road

to

recovery. It would be good for him to take a bit of a rest and give

his

body a chance to catch up. He must be a tough guy to work through

that,

but I understand what seeding season is, having farmed for 35 years.

So, now that he is done, let him take some time off and allow the body

to complete its job, and continue with the treatment. He is most of

the

way through now.

Make sure he drinks lots of water. I know the old farmers don't like

to

drink water (I think my dad only drank water five times in his life!),

but is is necessary to help the body with its heavy work. "

Best of health,

Dr Saul Pressman

---------------------

Author meditated a lot on this situation and found that breathing

techniques and juicing were much better and inexpensive as compared

to such treatments (Cost of a good sauna and ozone generator works

out to nearly $4500/-). The results of this meditation are as follows:

ozone is available in atmosphere in very small percentage and life

style recommended in Ayurveda utilises these facts so that health

rejuvenation occurs.

In nature, everyone needs ozone and solar energy. The regions of earth

where more ozone is available, less solar energy will suffice for

plants:

http://health.ayurveda/messages/4593

Ozone percentage is more in places at Alpine/Himalayan heights, due

to rare

atmosphere and less pollution. Hence plants in such places have less

foliage. They need not gather more solar enegy through photo-

synthesis.

Every health science and " pathy " recommends going to hill stations and

spending few days there to enjoy pollution free and ozone rich air

available there, in addition to cosmic energy less filtered by

polluted atmosphere.

The beneficial effects of ozone were known to Indian acharyas who

developed ayurveda. There are many plants considered " holy " in India;

but amongst them , most holy is " Tulsi " or " Holy basil " . All other

plants give us " oxygen " during photo-synthesis.

http://health.ayurveda/messages/2722

Tulsi is the only plant, which gives out a little ozone during photo-

synthesis. This was found accidentally by this author while doing

breathing exercises near a Tulsi Garden. This is the reason, in India,

every Hindu home will be found with Tulsi plant in back yard.

A little ozone is also given out when " ghee " made from milk of Indian

cow is burnt in an oil lamp or ghee is added to fire. Hence when

Yagnya is carried out (This involves Holy fire and chanting of various

Mantras) cow ghee is offered into fire. Ozone which gets released, not

only rejuvinates everyone around, but also kindles spiritual fire in

heart. Hence, in some ashramas and homes, " Agnihotra " , i.e. Agni

Ahoratra, holy fire day and night with no break (24x7x365) is kept

alive, and cow ghee is sacrificed in the " holy " fire. Wood obtained

from only seven trees qualifies for sacrifice in the fire. There are

additional holy trees other than Tulsi.

http://health.ayurveda/messages/3055

http://health.ayurveda/messages/1226

The proportion of ozone in air is higher at early morning, i.e. 2

hours

before sun-rise. This is also the time when 'sushumna' nadi becomes

active, This nadi is the express pathway from 'Muladhar Chakra'

to 'Sahastrar Chakra' in head, traversing spine. Hence every yogi

tries

to meditate or carry out Yoga exercises at this time, termed 'Brahma

Muhurta' in India. Indian yogis recognised the importance of

ozone in spiritual progress as well as health. Tulsi is used in

thousands of medicines in Ayurveda and its success in curing bipolar

depression can be searched in archives of group 'ayurveda'. The

reason it is considered holy can only be ozone connection. Tulsi is

used in every Puja procedure by Hindus.

Another source of ozone is aerobic decomposition of a compost heap,

when cow dung is added to compost heap

http://health.ayurveda/messages/4593

It is for this importancee of ozone that Indian acharyas have

included so many ozone sites for health as

well as spiritualism. Since in above circumstances recommended by

acharyas, ozone is given continuously in a very small micro dose, the

possible health benifits are without any " healing crisis " . Secondly,

when you wish to attain " health " or a " self-realization " , a little

price has to be paid during detoxification of body or soul. Similar

reaction also occur when Kundali awakens, if toxins are present in

mind.

Dear Dr Bhate,

What a wonderful post !! You have explained everything very

beautifully. Now I know how to explain the concept of pranyama to the

sceptics.

Thank you,

Yes, indeed - one of the most difficult things in "alternative" cures can be holding the psyche steady as the body unleashes hidden "enemies" and releases them forever - people have so much fear in, with and for their bodies
