Book Review: Can This Book Really Make Me Immortal, Mr. Butler?
Summary: 5 Stars
Yes, Virginia. There IS a Santa Claus. First, the fundamentals. There are five Tibetan rites. The first is just swinging around like an idiot. The second one is where you are just lying down and you raise your legs while touching your chin to you chest. The next rite is where you just arch your back. The fourth is when you position yourself so you look like a table. And the fifth is where you alternate looking like a "V" and and then looking like a cobra. Takes about 5 minutes. Do each 3 times. If you can't do any, don't worry. People who can hardly move are able to do so eventually. Add 1 repitition a week and build up to 21 repitions. This can take as little as 10 to 20 minutes. And that's it! How does it work? I've studied a little yoga so here we go. At the very tailbone of your spine is the muludhara chakra. This is where the kundalini rests. To make it simple, almost all your energy resides in the bottom of your spine. Now think of your Mother-in-Law or the presidential candidates. The shock of this thought will cause your spine to compress. Actually, what is happening in yoga is that your conciousness is now residing in the bottom of your spine. This "stress response" can eventually cause you to become "humped over". There is very little energy now in the upper spine. The energy level is normally supposed to go UP the spine. But because of the way people live and think, most people live in the lumbar part of the spine during their whole lives. In an unconcious state. This is why dugs and alcohol work. They send this energy to the higher regions of the spine. Unfortanately, this is considered dangerous because it is done violently. Now eventually, the chakras above the lumbar spine almost turn off. Now if you were to stretch the spine, wouldn't this release some energy UP the spine to the higher centers? If you moved the spine up and down, would this not release even more energy? This is what the 5 rites do. And they were designed for this purpose. They normalize the energy in the body. When the body is normalized, the vital organs return to normal. And rejuvenation happens. Simply because these centers of the spine are being "watered" for the first time in 20 years or whatever. Perhaps that's why yogis refer to the centers in the spine as lotuses. We need to keep them open. Now two more things. "The Ancient Secret Fountain of Youth Book 2" has medical advice on using each rite. Why not just play it safe and buy this book as well? Finally, if you burst out in anger daily, buy "Feel the Fear and Do IT Anyway" by Susan Jeffers. If you are subject to anxiety attacks, anger, depression - these rites will help greatly. But whenever you think a horrible thought, the conciousness in your spine will have a tendency to go to the bottom of the spine. Buy the book I mentioned above and pump some "positive ions" into your brain to avoid this. But no matter what, the rites will even help demolish your negative attitudes. Why? Because you are "gushing energy" higher up the spine and nourishing the higher nerve centers. This makes it easier to think positively. In fact, the 5 rites are a good way to start to feel "happy" again. For those of you who want to go farther, please buy "The Ancient Secret Fountain of Youth Cookbook." Also the video on the 5 rites. And "the Five Tibetans". Okay. You're all set with the first three books I mentioned. I'll see you in 200 years!
Summary of Ancient Secret of the Fountain of Youth
Legend has it that hidden in the remote reaches of the Himalayan mountains lies a secret that would have saved Ponce de Leon from years of fruitless searching. There, generations of Tibetan monks have passed down a series of exercises with mystical, age-reversing properties. Known as the Tibetan Rites of Rejuvenation or the Five Rites, these once-secret exercises are now available to Westerners in Ancient Secret of the Fountain Of Youth. Peter Kelder's book begins with an account of his own introduction to the rites by way of Colonel Bradford, a mysterious retired British army officer who learned of the rites while journeying high up in the Himalayas. Fountain of Youth then offers practical instructions for each of the five rites, which resemble yoga postures. Taking just minutes a day to perform, the benefits for practitioners have included increased energy, weight loss, better memory, new hair growth, pain relief, better digestion, and just feeling younger.Alternative Medicine Books
