you to do better from now on get to work-get to work, I say, and stop this
foolishness." These exact words are not necessary; use any words which
may come to you, so long as they convey a sharp positive command that
the organ shall do its work. The heart's action may be improved in the same
way, but one must proceed in a far more gentle manner, as the cell-group
of the heart is possessed of a much higher degree of intelligence than that
of the liver, for instance, and must be approached in a more respectful
manner. Gently remind the heart that you expect it to do its work in a better
manner, but speak to it politely and do not attempt to "bulldoze" it as you
would the liver. The heart cell-group is the most intelligent of the groups
controlling any of the organs-the liver group is the most stupid and less
intelligent, being of a decidedly mulish disposition, whereas the heart is
like a thorough-bred horse, intelligent and alert. If your liver is rebellious
you must go for it vigorously, remembering its mulish propensities. The
stomach is fairly intelligent, although not as much so as the heart. The
Colon is quite obedient, although patient and long suffering. One may give
the Colon commands to evacuate its contents at a certain time every
morning (naming the hour), and if you will trust it sufficiently to go to the
stool at that particular hour keep your engagement, in fact you will find

that the Colon will in a short time do as you wish it to. But remember that
the poor Colon has been greatly abused and it may take a little time to
regain its confidence. Irregular menstruation may be regulated, and normal
habits acquired, in a few months by marking the proper date on the
calendar and then each day giving oneself a gentle treatment along the
lines above mentioned, telling the cell-groups controlling the function that
it is now so many days before the expected time and that you wish them to
get ready and do their work, so that when the time arrives everything will
be normal. As you near the time, call the group's attention that the time is
growing shorter and that it must attend to its business. Do not give the
commands in a trifling manner but as if you really meant them and you
must mean them-and they will be obeyed. We have seen many cases of
irregular menstruation relieved in this way in from one to three months.
This may sound ridiculous to you, but all we can say is to try it for
yourself. We have not space to point out the method to be employed for
each complaint, but you will readily see just what organ or group controls
the seat of the trouble from what we have said in other chapters, and then
give it its orders. If you do not know what organ is causing the trouble, you
at least know the region of the disturbance and may direct your commands
to that part of the body. It is not necessary for you to know the name of the
organ-just direct your commands to the spot and say to it: "Here You, [sic]
etc." This book is not intended as a treatise upon the cure of disease, its
object being to point out the road to health by preventing disease, but these
little hints at restoring normal functioning to organs which have been
misbehaving may help you somewhat.
You will be surprised at the measure of control which you may gain over
your body by following the above method and variations of the same. You
will be able to relieve your headaches by directing the blood to flow
downward; you will be able to warm your cold feet by ordering the blood
to flow to them in increased quantities, the Prana, of course, going along
also; you may equalize the circulation, thus stimulating the entire body;
you may relieve tired portions of the body. In fact, there is no end of the
things you may do along this line if you have but the patience to try. If you
do not know just what commands to give you may say to the part, "Here
you, get better I want this pain to leave I want you to do better," or
something similar. But all this requires practice and patience, of course.
There is no royal road to its accomplishment.

Chapter 20:
Pranic Energy.
The student will notice, as he reads the chapters of this book, that there is
an esoteric and an exoteric side of Hatha Yoga. By "esoteric" we mean
"designed for only the specially initiated; private" (Webster's Dictionary),
and by "exoteric" we mean "external; public opp. to esoteric" (Webster's
Dictionary). The exoteric or public side of the subject consists in the theory
of the obtaining of nourishment from the food the irrigating and
eliminating properties of water the advantage of the rays of the sun in
prompting growth and health the benefit of exercise the advantage of
proper breathing-the benefit to be derived from fresh air, etc., etc. These
theories are well known to the Western world, as well as to the Eastern; to
the non-occultist as well as the occultist, and both recognize their truth and
the benefits to be obtained by putting them into practice. But there is
another side, quite familiar to the Orientals and to occultists generally, but
unfamiliar to the Western world and not generally known among those [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
