THE
CURE OF ILLNESSES
CAUSED BY
MISINFORMATION
The
things discussed up to now are valid for all illnesses.
You then need to carefully evaluate the illnesses
in order to decide whether they should be confronted with drugs
or surgery, or if it is better to let the body handle them by itself.
We have the diagnostic instruments and means to do this. Common
sense advises us to use them to make sure there are no serious risks.
The best choice is to cure oneself when, as often happens, it is
only a question of minor disorders or functional imbalances, following
a doctor's advice, but without stuffing oneself with drugs. Besides,
by doing so, we reinforce our self-knowledge. We take responsibility
for our own health and accumulate positive experiences, which will
motivate us to stay healthy.
Each victory against a small illness that is achieved through
your own powers and efforts keeps worse illnesses at bay (because
feeling gratified is wonderful).
Lastly, curing yourself on your own allows you to concentrate on
the objective of staying healthy, and this attitude reinforces in
your unconscious mind the idea that to stay healthy is your absolute
top priority.
This is especially true for a number of illnesses which are in fact
caused only by behavioural errors, and therefore have no need to
be cured. One need only to correct the behavioural errors that have
caused them, and the disorders disappear at once. To swallow drugs
or undergo surgical operations in order to attenuate the symptoms
of these "illnesses" is pure folly.
Many people will think that I am exceedingly presumptuous to assert
that thousands of doctors are stupid. Well, I don't believe that
it is just a question of stupidity. There is an unscientific attitude
behind it that one occasionally encounters in the medical community,
and which is entirely at odds with medical ethics. There is a real
idolatry of pills. One forgets that "the doctor cures illnesses
that he really doesn't understand with drugs that he doesn't understand."
The body is a marvel of nature that we still don't know much
about and that perhaps we will never completely know and understand.
Therefore, we should first of all respect what little we have discovered
about the natural functioning of this marvellous machine.
Some doctors are not very concerned about the matter. Prescribing
pills is much easier. One of the fundamental causes of this situation
is that from the day they begin their university studies, doctors
are completely dependent on the huge drug industry. The pharmaceutical
companies call the shots, by directing scientific research towards
costly cures that promise large profits for them. Nobody will invest
a single cent toward proving how long it takes to cure an ulcer
with a bit of diet, passive meditation, self-massage and comedy
films. It would be like throwing money out the window. The few independent
researchers who have succeeded in obtaining dramatic results in
the cure of illnesses caused by behavioural errors have been isolated
by the pharmaceutical companies, and their discoveries are little
known. And when they go to scientific symposiums to explain the
results of their work, the great academics from all over the world
line up to pee on their shoes.
In the following pages, I will list these disorders and explain
their fundamental causes and the way to eliminate them.
