Vision - Eyesight - Bates - Book recommendations

[Guest guest]

hello all!

 

WARNING: This is about a work in progress. This is near the beginning

of the project...no results available.

 

I'd noticed that I frequently post things " after " they're over, and

thought some might enjoy some of my " real-time " meanderings.

soo...here's one.

 

 

Whilst Elchanan and I were chatting and working together the other

day, we touched upon eyesight. Elchanan suggested that rather than

fasting to attempt to regain better eyesight, that I might want to

read Dr. Bates' original material.

 

sooo...off I went...the mission was a little more complicated, since

the book is out of print, and was published in 1920. I tried my

usual - the public Library, Amazon.comk, and then what I call

my " online " library - http://www.soilandhealth.org -none of these

had it..

I did find one that my local (really local, within a mile of my

house) library had that looked very interesting by Thomas R.

Quackenbush, titled " Relearning to See - Improve your Eyesight -

Naturally! " -- so I called the local librarian, had her pull it for

me, and I went over to get it..it's quite the tome at >500pp. So

far, I'm up to p. 118, and I'd rate it very good to excellent.

 

what I was looking for was:

" The Cure of Imperfect Sight by Treatment Without Glasses

(aka: Perfect Sight Without Glasses)

 

by W.H. Bates, M.D.'

 

I thought...hmm..what else can I do...?

soo... I sent an email to the www.soilandhealth.org " librarian " ,

asking if he knew where I could get it, and sure enough he did!

(and, he responded very quickly - such a deal: for a few bucks,

my " own " online librarian! lol!) very nice, indeed.

He said while he didn't have it, he pointed me to the online link

where they did have it, as follows: (and note, that once you get

there, you can either read it in web html format, or download it in

PDF format (my fav!, next to a real book! lol!)

fascinating stuff.

 

In the whole realm of Nature, Healing, Living, etc....I've decided to

now work on improving my vision, (since I've keenly observed that I'm

not seeing any animals wild in nature with glasses....hmmm... and

maybe even eliminating these glasses I've had for maybe 42

years....and here we gooo..

 

hope others find this of interest. fascinating stuff: really....

and, not surprisingly, it's *nothing* like what our

optometrists/opthamalogists tell us!

 

all the best,

 

Bob

 

ps - I've taken the liberty of also sticking this in the " files "

section over on RawSchool.
