An ancient secret 

CONTENT "YOUNG FRESH SOURCES" PART TWO

        It has been nearly three months since Bradford returned from India and so many things have happened during this time. After being taught by Mr. Bradford about the five exercises, I began to practice immediately and was very excited at the results they brought. Bradford has been absent these days and I have not been able to contact him. When he finally phoned me, I eagerly informed him of my success and decided that I was excited to show him the effectiveness of those five things.   

Yes, I feel extremely excited about these 5 exercises and impatiently want to convey what I already know to others so that they can benefit. So I asked Mr. Bradford if he could open a class. He agreed, considered it a good idea and said he would do it, but only opened the class under three conditions.   

The first condition is that the class must be full of both men and women from all walks of life: from experts to workers, housewives, etc. The second condition is that all students must be over 50 years old. , the older they are, the better if they can be over 100, if I can find them and if they will learn. Mr. Bradford emphasized this point, although the five exercises were also helpful for younger people. And the third condition is that each class is limited to only 15 students. This made me quite disappointed because I still wanted to gather some larger practitioners. After trying to persuade Mr. Bradford for a while but it didn't work out, I had to accept his three terms. 

 Soon after, I gathered a group that met the conditions Mr. Bradford had set up, and from the start the class proved a great success. We met once a week and in the following week, I saw signs of improvement in some members. However, Mr. Bradford asked the members not to discuss each other's progress and thus there was no way to poll them. Then my questions were relieved at the end of the month, when we met in a gathering to share the accomplishments that each person achieved. Some were happy to report progress, a few said they had achieved remarkable success, and one of them, a 75-year-old, seemed to have made the most progress. 

We named our group the Himalaya Club and continue to meet every week. Finally, after 10 weeks of study, all students were able to practice 21 times per week of practice. All practitioners not only think that they feel better, but also believe that they look younger; Many people joke that it's time they won't tell their real age. This reminds me a few weeks earlier, when we asked Mr. Bradford for his age, he promised that he would announce it by the end of the tenth week. Yet, now that the time has come for our appointment, we still haven't seen Mr. Bradford. A practitioner suggested that we try to guess Bradford's age and then write it down on a piece of paper so that when Mr. Bradford announced his age, we would see who was the best guess.   

Hearing us explain the work we were doing, Mr. Bradford said, "Come give me the cards, let me see how you guessed correctly. Then I'll tell my real age for you." friend !" . In a hilarious voice, Bradford read aloud the predictions written on the note, and it was found that all of them guessed he was in his 40s and most thought he was only in his 40s. 

 Mr. Bradford said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to thank you for all the good things you have done for me. Because you have honestly expressed your feelings, I must also be very honest about my age. Ladies and gentlemen, I have the same age as yours, that is, on my next birthday I am 73 ".   

At first everyone looked at him suspiciously, unbelievably. How could an old man at 73 look as young as a man in his 40s? Later, some practitioners raised their questions and asked why he was able to achieve these miraculous results. Mr. Bradford explained: "I sympathize with your surprise because you have only practiced these miraculous things for 10 weeks. If you continue to practice them for 2 years, you will make changes. In addition, if you want to make more progress, I will tell you what you need to know. 

 "So far, I have taught you 5 exercises to restore health and vitality. They also bring you a youthful appearance. However, if you want to completely restore health and youth. , then you have to practice the sixth formula. "The reason I have not mentioned this sixth consciousness is because it can only be useful once you have achieved good results through the five exercises mentioned."   

At this point, Mr. Bradford noted that if you want to benefit from this Friday consciousness, you have to be self-conscious and this is very difficult. He suggested that everyone should take some time to consider whether they are determined to practice this 6th practice for the rest of their lives or not. For those who are definitive, he invited them to come back next week. As expected of each other, only 5 students from the group returned the following week. However, Mr. Bradford said this seemed to be better than what he had experienced in India.   

When asked about this supplementary exercise, Mr. Bradford explained that its goal was to improve the body's regenerative abilities. This advanced process not only rejuvenates the mind, but also the entire body. And he noted that this sixth consciousness introduces a bond that most students do not want to follow. 

 He explained: "Normally for middle-aged women or women, part or often part of the main life force to nurture the seven chakras is directed to regeneration. so much of this power is wasted in the first chakra and thus it cannot pass to the other 6 chakras. must preserve the intense power of this life and lead it up so that all chakras can use it, especially the seventh chakra. In other words, you need to be single so that this regenerative power can be reused to a higher purpose.   

"At that time, it was very easy to bring the main life force to the forefront; yet, for centuries, people have failed to realize this dream. In the West, the whole religions have tried to reach this goal, but all have failed.That is because they want to master this regenerative power by suppressing and stopping it. The best way to master this intense urge is to transform it, not eliminate it or stop it. Only by transforming it can you master the essential power of life and at the same time This way, you will not only find the "eternal life" as the old people call it, but you can also apply it, which the ancients couldn't do it. 

"Now I would like to tell you that this sixth consciousness is the simplest and easiest one. You only practice it once you feel overwhelmed by sexuality and have the natural desire you need. It is very simple that you can practice it anywhere and anytime, whenever you feel compelled by sex.   

All you need to do is: "Stand up straight and slowly breathe air out of your lungs. While doing so, bend your body and place your hands on your knees. with all the air that is still in the lungs and then, with the empty lung, return to an upright position.Place your hands on your hips and press them down.At the same time, collect your abdomen as deep as possible and raise your chest. .   

"Now, hold this position for as long as possible. Finally when you feel you need to breathe, breathe air in through your nose. When your lungs are full, exhale through your mouth. While exhaling like that , relax your hands and let them naturally fall along your sides, then take several deep breaths with your mouth or nose.   

"This is all you have to do with this sixth consciousness, to reorient its sexual power and to increase its power. Most people have to practice this sixth sixth consciousness. "The only difference between a living healthy person and a superman (male and female) is that superman knows the direction of the vital force of life to go up to create balance and harmony through chakras while the other person (not superman) directs it to sexual energy. That's why superheroes every child every time, growing younger and creating in themselves "medicine of immortality" 

 Now you can understand why "The Fresh Source" is always in me. The five exercises or, more specifically, the six states mentioned, are just the key to opening the door. Every time I remember Ponce de Leon and his hopeless search of "Spring of Youth", I feel sorry for the man who managed not to travel thousands of miles before returning empty-handed.  

In fact, he can achieve his goals without having to leave home. Yet just like me, Ponce de Leon believes that he can find the "Source of Youth" somewhere on this earth. He did not expect that he himself always contained the "Source of Youth".   

Remember that you should only practice the sixth consciousness when you are full and motivated by sex. Ladies and gentlemen will not be able to transform this reproductive vitality if it is too little or nothing to metabolize. People who are already full and are no longer driven by great signs show that their bodies have changed in a positive way. And this is partly due to knowing how to practice the nutrition level at the monastery. The lamas do not choose their own food, or rather, they have very little to choose. The diets of lamas include nutritious, healthy foods, and as a rule, each meal has only one dish. This in itself is a secret to being strong and healthy. When we eat only one dish at a time, our stomachs don't get tired of lack of harmony (quantity,

With a meal with too many dishes, the food will upset the stomach because starch does not easily dissolve with protein. For example, if bread, which is a starch, is eaten with a high-protein substance, such as meat, eggs or cheese, a chemical reaction will be formed in the stomach. This not only makes the stomach full, leading to fatigue, but in the long run also reduces life expectancy. Back in the monastery, I had many times to sit down to eat with the lamas and the meal was nothing but bread. Other times we eat only fresh vegetables with fruit. And at other times, there are only vegetables cooked with fruit. 

 At first, because I was familiar with the previous usual diet of different foods, I felt hungry; but soon, I enjoyed a simple meal, just black bread or just a single fruit. Sometimes, a meal with only vegetables is enough to make me like a party. Here, I don't want to recommend that you limit your meals to only one food, and I don't recommend that you remove meat from the menu. What I recommend is that you separate starchy foods, fruits and vegetables from meat, fish and chicken, which means you shouldn't eat them at the same time.   

You can eat a whole meat meal, and if you want, you can use different types of meat for a meal. Or you can also eat butter, eggs and cheese along with meat or bread and end up with black coffee or tea. But you can't end a meal like that with anything sweet or made of flour - no cakes, jams or candies. Avocado is a food that can be used with both foods mentioned above. You can use butter together with flour or meat food. Milk is better with flour foods. With tea or coffee, you must drink black or mixed with a little sugar, but never mix them with milk.   

Using the eggs appropriately was also an interesting and useful thing that I learned during my time at the monastery. The lamas never eat the whole egg unless they have worked hard with their hands before. Only then did they eat an entire medium-sized boiled egg. But normally they eat egg whites, eat raw and remove whites. At first, I thought it was a waste to remove the egg white as it was a delicious food; then I realized that the whites are only used for muscle and we only eat it after working with muscles.   

I still know that egg yolk is a nutritious food, but I only understood its true value after speaking to a Westerner at the monastery who had a solid understanding of biochemistry. He explained that chicken eggs generally contain half the nutrients needed for the brain, nerves and internal organs. And the body only needs to absorb these essential nutrients in small amounts, but it needs to be weighed appropriately to the level of nutrition if you really want to be fit and healthy both mentally and physically. body.   

In addition, the lamas taught me another important thing to eat slowly to chew food thoroughly. Chewing thoroughly is the first important step to make the puree food easier to absorb. When we eat anything, it needs to be digested in the mouth before digesting 25v in the stomach. If you devour food, skip the chewing phase - a crucial key stage - then the food becomes a destructive thing when it reaches the stomach.   

Protein-rich foods like meat, fish and chicken don't need to chew as much as flour foods. But anyway, you should chew as well. If the food is chewed more thoroughly, its nutritional value increases. This means that if you chew your food well, the amount of food you need to eat will be halved. 

 I left the monastery in the Himalayas after 2 years of training and brought a fresh look. There were things that I used to despise, but later I was startled. One of these is when I went to some cities in India, I realized that people everywhere ate too much. I have seen people only at one meal when they consumed an amount of food equivalent to the diet of 4 hard working lamas. But, of course, lamas never dreamed of giving their stomachs all kinds of food like that person.   

The second thing that terrifies me is that people have eaten too much food at one meal. Because I was used to one or two dishes at a meal, one day I was dumbfounded to count all 23 dishes on the banquet table. That is why so many people on this earth must be constantly sick, sick, because they know nothing about the relationship between nutrition and health. Eating the right food, having the right combination of foods, eating the right amount and eating right, are the key to producing miraculous results. If you are overweight, the above foods will help you lose weight; Conversely if you are thin it will help you gain weight.   

There are also a number of other things about food and nutrition that I want to talk to you about, but because of the limited time I cannot tell. So you should keep in mind the following 5 things:   

- Never eat starchy foods at the same meal with meat. Now, when you are healthy, they do not make you weak, but in the long run they are not good for your health.   

- If using coffee, drink black coffee, not using milk or any other cream to make it. But if coffee makes you uncomfortable, then you should completely remove it.   

- Chew food thoroughly until it becomes liquid and gradually reduce the amount of food you consume. 

- Every day eat a red irises of fresh chicken eggs. Eat before or after meals but not with meals.   

- Reduce the foods in your meal to a minimum. END=NAM MO SHAKYAMUNI BUDDHA.( 3 TIMES ).GOLDEN AMITABHA MONASTERY=VIETNAMESE BUDDHIST NUN=THICH CHAN TANH.AUSTRALIA,SYDNEY.20/2/2020.
