Correcting the Two Kingdoms

The evening after the second day at Chandigarh

The camp had emptied. The mats were rolled, the volunteers were eating late, and the thing everybody in that hall wanted explained had happened six hours earlier: a woman who had walked in cheerful had walked out weeping, after a treatment given exactly as it was written on her card.

You have met her twice already. On the first day she was given a treatment and got such relief that people in the queue said a miracle had been done. On the second day she came back in a hurry — her children would be home from school — and asked for the same treatment again. The camp was crowded, Guruji was at his meal, nobody wanted to disturb him, and so she was given the first day's card without any examination at all. As soon as it was finished she cried out that pain had come into her whole body which had not been there when she arrived. One treatment of NAN settled it, and she went home praising the work. That much is told in How a Formula Is Built, with the two instructions Guruji gave on the spot.

What nobody in that hall could yet explain was the why. The treatment had been correct. It had worked the day before. It had been given point for point, count for count, by careful hands. How does a correct treatment, repeated, produce the opposite of what it produced yesterday?

In the evening Guruji sat down and explained it, and the explanation is not an apology for a mistake. It is the doctrine of this article. That woman had been given the Acid treatment because there had been tremendous pain in her Mu° point — and depression, which in this therapy is read as one of the signs that acid in the blood has risen. The treatment took the acid out. The next day the same treatment took it out again, from a body that no longer had it to spare; the acid fell too far, which is the same thing as saying the alkali rose; and one chief symptom of alkali rising is pain in the body. When he checked her that afternoon, the tender point was no longer Mu°. It was Liv°. She had crossed from one kingdom into the other overnight, carried across by her own treatment.

That is the whole article in one sentence, and it will take thirty pages to earn. Two directions, two named formulas, and a body that can be pushed past the middle by the very treatment that was correct for it yesterday. The Two Kingdoms taught you to read which direction a patient is in. This article teaches you what to do about it, and — harder — when to stop doing it.

The notation is closed. Every bracket, ring, quoted letter, underline, plus sign, glyph and Roman numeral in this article was taught once, completely, in Table 13 of How a Formula Is Built, "How a Formula Is Built". Nothing is explained again here. Every written rest — the ninety seconds between two treatments of the Acid formula, the ninety seconds between the rounds of the Alkali formula — is in Table 8 of the same article, with the reason given for it.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN HERE

By the end of this article you will be able to:

Decide, from one examination, whether the patient in front of you needs the acid family of treatment, the alkali family, or neither today — and say out loud the finding that decided it.

Give the Acid Treatment Formula (ATF) in both its forms, say what each point in it is for, and name the four circumstances that switch you from the Adr ending to the Thymus + Chest ending.

Give the acne and pimples variant, and say why Adr is expressly excluded from it.

Explain the difference between the heavy and the light treatment, write out both generations of ATF, and name the patients for whom the light treatment is not merely permitted but preferred.

Give the two calcium-deposit orders correctly — as two alternatives, never merged — and say who obtained benefit from them.

State the prerequisite of ALTF completely: why a patient's alkali may only appear raised, what must be given first, what must have changed before ALTF is given at all, and what is checked on the day you decide.

Give ALTF in its chief form and both reduced forms, and state the one sentence that governs all three.

Build the whole 1,25 DCC family — Pure 1,25 DCC, the ordinary formula, the magnesium preface, the intrinsic-factor sequence, the four versions chosen by the form of the stool, and Pure Genes — and say why, in osteoporosis, (4) Para is never given alone.

Give the Gas 'I' ladder at its four counts, and state the warning that decides whether the count you gave is the count you intended.

The two kingdoms, and the two families of treatment

Mu° sends you left, Liv° sends you right — and each has its own family

A short recall, and then we go to work.

The patient's condition today is read from the pain points around the navel, and three of them carry this article: Gas, Liv° and Mu°. Diseases that come from a deficiency of water in the body or the blood are the diseases of acidosis, and in most such people pain is found at Mu°. Diseases that come from an increase of water in the blood or in some part of the body are the diseases of alkalosis, and in most such people pain is found at Liv°. Many diseases belong to neither family and come from the disorder of one organ or one system, for which other methods of treatment have been adopted. Acidosis produces many symptoms, and they are easy to set right; alkalosis produces fewer, and they do not get right easily — to correct them takes considerable effort and time.

Up to about thirty or thirty-five years of age, most people have pain at Mu° and get the diseases of acidosis; with increasing age the diseases of alkali begin to come. But remember that it will not always be so: a chief cause of fits and CP in children is an increase of alkali. The complete two-column picture — the stool, the nose, the cough, the menses, the headache, the muscle, the thyroid, the side of the body that hurts, and the sixteen other rows that go with them — is taught in full in The Two Kingdoms, "The Two Kingdoms", and is not repeated here.

Two further findings from that examination decide a great deal of what follows, and they are worth stating separately because students run them together.

Key teaching

What pain at Gas is telling you, and why it is not the same finding as pain at Mu°

When there is pain in the Gas point, it tells us that the circulation of blood in the stomach is reduced, because of which hydrochloric acid cannot be made properly and there will be indigestion. Such people feel little hunger.

Some people have pain in Mu° but not in the Gas point. Some people can have pain in both Gas and Mu°.

Record them as two findings, not one. Mu° sends you towards the acid family. Gas sends you towards the stomach and, as you will see when ALTF is reached, it is the finding that can make a patient's alkali look raised when it is not.

And the chemistry the therapy attaches to it, in one paragraph, because the names will recur. The acidity of the blood is not the acid of the stomach. The stomach's acid is hydrochloric acid, and it occurs only in the stomach, never in the blood. In the blood several acids are dissolved which maintain its acidity — amino acids, uric acid, lactic acid, folic acid, carbonic acid, and in the disease of diabetes the keto acids, which are a chief cause of acidosis in a diabetic patient. To balance all of these it is necessary that bicarbonate ions should come out from the kidneys at the right time and in the right quantity. Each of those acids is tied to an organ — the stomach's blood supply behind the amino acids, the liver behind uric acid and therefore behind a great many joint pains, the respiratory system behind lactic and carbonic acid — and the whole table is set out in The Two Kingdoms.

Now the part of the chart that belongs to the formulary rather than to diagnosis: its last row. Once the direction is known, a matched family of treatment is waiting for it, and the two families are mirror images — left-sided work for one, right-sided work for the other.

Table 1 — The two matched families of treatment

	To reduce acidosis Left	To reduce alkalosis Right
The named formula	ATF — Acid treatment formula — this article	ALTF — Alkali treatment formula — this article
What must come first	Nothing, except the examination	The UDF treatment — Clearing the Ash, "Clearing the Ash"
The Raman treatment	Left Raman — Seated I — Brain, Medulla, Neck	Right Raman — Seated I — Brain, Medulla, Neck
The chest	Left Chest only — The Front of the Body II	Right Chest only — The Front of the Body II
The spine	Round arrow ↑\	↓ — Face Down	—
The adrenal	Adr — Face Down	—
The sacrum	—	(½) Ku – 40 secs / 60 secs / 80 secs — Face Down
Vitamin formation	Left Vitamin formation — On the Side	Right Vitamin formation — On the Side
Also	—	In some people alkali is also reduced by Th + Ch, thymus with chest — The Front of the Body II
The governing bar	If there is no pain in Mu°⁺⁺⁺, then ATF is not to be given ▲ Take care	Even when there is pain in Liv°, do not give ALTF first. First give the UDF formula ▲ Take care

Look at the column headings before you look at the entries. Every acid-reducing treatment in that list is left; every alkali-reducing treatment is right. That is not a mnemonic somebody invented afterwards; it follows from the observation on which the whole system rests — the left kidney filters most of the acid, that is, reduces the acidity of the blood, and the right kidney reduces most of the symptoms of increased alkali. Provoke the left kidney by way of Mu° and the symptoms of acidosis ease; provoke the right by way of Liv° and the diseases of alkalosis ease. Side, in this article more than any other, is part of the identity of a point and never a detail of technique. (Figure 28.1)

Acidosis and alkalosis are the two root causes from which other diseases are formed. That is why two separate treatments were made for them, and why setting one or the other right can set many symptoms right at one and the same time. It is also why the two bars in the last row of that table exist. A formula powerful enough to correct a root cause is powerful enough to carry a body past the middle, and the woman at Chandigarh is the proof of it.

The two kingdoms, and the two roads out of them. The whole article as one decision: one examination at the top, the Gas finding kept separate from the Mu° finding, then two lanes — the acid road straight to ATF in its two forms, the alkali road through UDF and three changed findings before ALTF is given at all.

The Acid Treatment Formula — when it is given at all

No pain at Mu°, no ATF — and the finding is made on the day, by the hand

The increase of acid in the blood is called acidosis, and it is the root cause of many different symptoms and diseases. ATF is the chief treatment for setting them right. Before a single count of it is given, the gate.

In such people there is more pain in the ring finger of the left hand than in the right; there is often pain in the organs of the left side of the body and not in the organs of the right; and some of them also have pain in the acid point. Those three are confirmations, not substitutes — the anchor is Mu°.

What follows is the picture ATF was written for, assembled over sixty years of unbroken tapasyā and the experience of lakhs of patients. It is given here as the formula's indication, in the six groups in which it is set down. The same material read the other way round — as a way of recognising the acid direction in a patient who has not yet been examined — is The Two Kingdoms, and a student who has both readings will use either better.

Table 2 — The picture ATF is written for, in its six groups

	What is found
1. The consequences of a deficiency of water — appearing on the intestine, nose, hair, skin and the other organs of excretion	Hard constipation and the diseases connected with it — piles, that is bavāsīr; fissure, a splitting around the anus, called anal fissure; fistula, that is bhagandar, anal fistula · blocked nose; dry cough, or cough with yellow thick phlegm · passing yellow-coloured urine with burning · redness of the eyes and itching in them, because of dryness in the tear glands · pimples or blemishes on the face — pimples, acne or black heads; for these there is a variant of the formula, below · falling of the hair; dandruff or scaling; the hair going white at an early age · drying of the skin; warts or moles; allergy; psoriasis
2. The three that fall out of place — in these, pain has been found at Mu°	Prolapse of rectum — the rectum coming down from its place · prolapse of uterus — the womb coming down from its place · hernia — an organ shifting from its fixed place and entering inside some other organ or part. These are three different diseases, but one thing is common among all three: they all occur because the flesh-muscles have become loose
and two more of the same family, in the blood vessels	Varicose veins, that is blue veins — varicose means to swell up; because the muscles of the vessels and of their valves become loose, a fault comes into them, from which they easily swell · low BP. When the muscle of the vessels becomes loose the pressure will be less; and because of the deficiency of water the volume of the blood will be less. From both these causes the BP goes down
3. The gland that runs slow	When acid increases in the blood the muscles become loose. For the secretion of any gland to come out properly the muscles around it must contract properly; if they are loose, the contraction will not happen properly and that gland will be hypo
4. Bone and joint, first kind — wearing away	Diseases in which the joints or bone wear away, called degeneration — rheumatism (vāt rog); cervical spondylitis, swelling in the beads of the neck; lumbar spondylitis, swelling in the vertebrae of the waist
5. Bone and joint, second kind — calcium in the wrong place	Calcium deposited between the bones or the joints — Bamboo spine, that is ankylosing spondylitis; Spur, a bone growing outward. For these there is a pair of altered orders, below
6. What travels with Mu° pain	Pain in the joints without cause · headache, often near the temples — this is called migraine · ulcer, that is sores, in the stomach or the duodenum

Key teaching

The thyroid chain, and the sentence it produces

Group 3 is worth following all the way, because it is the therapy's own explanation of why one formula relieves so many complaints at once.

One chief gland of the body is the thyroid, which looks after metabolism — cayāpacaya, the body's exchange of one thing for another. We may say that this is the chief mistrī, the master craftsman, without whose order or supervision the other glands and organs will not work properly. All the functions of the GIT depend on the thyroid gland.

When the thyroid works less, digestion will not be proper; the motility of the intestines will not be right; the residue reaches the large intestine very late; and that person gets hard constipation. When the gland works less the T₃ and T₄ hormones do not come out in the right quantity, and two chief symptoms may be seen — in children, very hard constipation, and mental dullness (manda buddhi) can also occur; in women, menses coming before the date, or more flow in the menses. When such a condition lasts for years, the quantity of T₃ and T₄ in the blood becomes very much less than normal, and it is then called hypothyroidism — one chief indicator of which is that the quantity of TSH also rises.

And from group 4, the sentence to carry out of this section: whatever disease has come because of degeneration, or is connected with it, we can set right by giving ATF.

TAKE CARE

What a therapist owes a patient in that list, before any formula

Several items in Table 2 are complaints, and several are diagnoses that have their own treatment. Treat the patient by all means; do not let the treatment stand between the patient and the thing that would settle the question.

Bleeding from the back passage is never assumed to be piles, at any age, and a change of bowel habit lasting weeks, with weight coming off, is a referral before it is a formula. A hernia that becomes hard, tender, will not go back, or comes with vomiting, is a same-day surgical emergency and nothing should be pressed on it. A first, worst or thunderclap headache, or a new headache with disturbed vision in a person past fifty, ends the session and starts a journey. Heavy menstrual bleeding has causes that are found and treated. A thyroid that is running slow is diagnosed by a blood test and treated with a tablet, and that tablet is never stopped or reduced because a pain point has gone quiet — least of all in a pregnant woman, whose requirement rises rather than falls. A therapist who notices this cluster and sends the patient for a TSH has done something genuinely useful.

ATF in both its forms

Four steps that never change; four questions that choose the ending

There are two chief forms of the ATF formula — one in which Adr is given, and another in which Thymus Chest is given. But they have separate uses. The first four steps are identical in both. The whole clinical decision is about the ending.

Table 3 — Card: Acid Treatment Formula (ATF), form (a) — the Adr version Supine Side-lying Prone 6 sec

Written	(8) Pan (1) Gal (3) Mu° (1) acid (4) Lt. Ch. Only (6) Adr
Family	Built from the therapy's own logic. Named for the condition it corrects — acidosis
Positions, in order	Supine for steps 1–3 and 5 Supine → side-lying for step 4 Side-lying → prone for step 6 Prone
Step 1	(8) Pan — both thighs together, the soft mid-sole on the upper third of each Both sides . To quieten the acid of the chyme in the duodenum by means of the digestive enzymes of the pancreas
Step 2	(1) Gal — therapist's right sole on the patient's left thigh, hip crease → knee Left . The bile of the gall bladder will also quieten the acid of the chyme
Step 3	(3) Mu° — the left-kidney code beside the navel; single station, hand contact high at the shoulder Left . To take out the pain of this point
Step 4	(1) acid — the Acid point, side-lying Side-lying . To take out the pain of this point
Step 5	(4) Lt. Ch. Only — the left chest only, without the thymus Left . From Left Chest Only carbon dioxide will come out, and it has been seen that from this too the pain of Mu° goes — that is, from this too the acid will be reduced
Step 6	(6) Adr — the adrenal point, patient prone Prone . Will finish inflammation in the body, whether it be in the intestine or in another place, and will also reduce the acid of the blood
Which form this is	The default. Most people have been found to obtain more benefit from this first formula — the one that has Adr
What it is for	The whole acid picture of Table 2 — the consequences of deficiency of water; the three that fall out of place and the two vessel diseases; the gland running hypo; whatever disease has come because of degeneration or is connected with it; the joint pain without cause, the migraine at the temples, the ulcer of the stomach or duodenum
Given only when	There is more pain in Mu°, and no pain in Liv° or very little indeed. No Mu°⁺⁺⁺, no ATF ▲ Take care
In a diabetic patient	Giving Loveleen Sulta ulta along with ATF will give further benefit
If the patient says Adr did not suit them	Then understand that they ought to be given Thymus or Thymus Chest — form (b)
The rest	Where ATF is given once or twice a day, it is given with a gap of ninety seconds in between — Table 8, How a Formula Is Built
Points taught in	Pan, Gal, Mu° — The Front of the Body I; acid — On the Side, "On the Side"; Lt. Ch. Only — The Front of the Body II; Adr — Face Down, "Face Down"; Loveleen and Sulta Ulta — The Front of the Body II

Table 4 — Card: Acid Treatment Formula (ATF), form (b) — the Thymus + Chest version Supine Side-lying 6 sec

Written	(8) Pan (1) Gal (3) Mu° (1) acid (4) Thymus+Chest
Positions, in order	Supine Supine → side-lying for step 4 Side-lying → supine for step 5. The patient is not turned prone at all
Steps 1 to 4	Identical to form (a) — (8) Pan, (1) Gal, (3) Mu°, (1) acid, with the same glosses
Step 5	(4) Thymus+Chest — the thymus with the chest, taken together as one step. Replaces both step 5 and step 6 of form (a)
What the ending does	By giving Thymus Chest, if there is pain anywhere in the body, or allergy from infection, that will be reduced
Given when	Pain at Mu° plus any one of the four circumstances of Table 5
Also	In some people alkali too is reduced by Th + Ch — which is why it appears in the alkali column of Table 1 as well
Prohibition	Do not give Thymus or Thymus Chest to patients of diabetes — with the qualification printed beside it, below ▲ Take care
The rest	As form (a) — ninety seconds between treatments where two are given in a day
Points taught in	Pan, Gal, Mu° — The Front of the Body I; acid — On the Side; Thymus, Chest and Th + Ch — The Front of the Body II, "The Front of the Body — II"

Table 5 — The four circumstances that select form (b)

If there has been an injury (mār lagā ho)	If there has been an infection from some virus or bacteria
If there are pimples on the face or boils in the body	If itching, allergy or a skin disease has appeared recently

Read that box as a single idea rather than four. Every one of the four names a body in which something is already being fought — a bruise, a fever, a boil, a rash that came up last week. In those bodies the formula does not push the adrenal; it recruits the thymus. In every other body with Mu° pain, the ending is Lt. Ch. Only and Adr. That is the entire decision, and the first four steps never change.

Table 6 — Choosing between the two forms of ATF

	Form (a) — with Adr	Form (b) — with Thymus + Chest
The ending	(4) Lt. Ch. Only + (6) Adr	(4) Thymus+Chest
The default	Yes — most people obtain more benefit from this	Given in the four circumstances of Table 5
Give it when	Pain at Mu°, without the features opposite	Pain at Mu° plus injury · viral or bacterial infection · pimples on the face or boils in the body · recently appeared itching, allergy or skin disease
Position	The patient is turned prone for the last step	The patient is not turned
Diabetes	Give Loveleen Sulta ulta along with ATF for further benefit	Do not give Thymus or Thymus Chest to patients of diabetes — but it is not the case that every diabetic patient will be harmed by Thymus; that too is not so
If Adr did not suit the patient	—	Then understand that they ought to be given Thymus or Thymus Chest
Recorded alongside	—	There are also such examples that on giving Thymus Chest their blood sugar too came down

TAKE CARE

The diabetes clause, read whole and not in halves

Do not give Thymus or Thymus Chest to patients of diabetes, because diabetes is held to be an auto-immune disorder in which the thymus gland is hyper.

But it is not the case that every diabetic patient will be harmed by Thymus — that too is not so. If, after giving Adr to some patient, they say that Adr did not suit them, then understand that they ought to be given Thymus or Thymus Chest. There are also such examples that on giving Thymus Chest their blood sugar too came down.

Both paragraphs stand, and the second does not cancel the first. What the second does is name the one circumstance in which the question is reopened: a diabetic patient who has already been given Adr and has told you it did not suit him. It is not a licence to begin with Thymus in a diabetic patient because you expect it to go well.

And the sentence about blood sugar carries a duty with it. A treatment that can lower blood sugar in a person taking insulin or a sugar tablet can also drop it too far. Such a patient keeps taking exactly what his doctor prescribed, keeps checking, and keeps something sweet in his pocket. The dose of a medicine is changed by the doctor who prescribed it, on the basis of readings — never by a therapist, and never on the basis of a pain point.

THE METHOD, STEP BY STEP

The ATF decision, at the mat, in four stages

This is a decision procedure, not the formula; the formula is on the two cards above.

Stage 1 — the gate. Palpate Liv° on the right and Mu° on the left, one after the other, never both together, and grade each. More pain at Mu°, and none or very little at Liv° — the gate is open. Anything else and you are not giving ATF today, whatever the card says, whatever the patient asks for, whatever you gave yesterday.

Stage 2 — the confirmations. The ring finger of the left hand against the right; pain in the organs of the left side of the body; tenderness at the acid point. Write down what you found, including what you looked for and did not find.

Stage 3 — the ending. Ask the four questions of Table 5 in the patient's own language — has anything hit you or hurt you recently? have you had a fever or an infection? any boils, any pimples? has any itching or rash come up in the last few weeks? Any one yes and the ending is (4) Thymus+Chest. All four no and the ending is (4) Lt. Ch. Only (6) Adr.

Stage 4 — the two patients who change the answer. Diabetes: the Thymus ending is withheld, and Loveleen Sulta ulta is given alongside ATF instead. A patient who has told you Adr did not suit him: the ending changes to Thymus or Thymus Chest, and that includes a diabetic patient — this is the one place the bar is reopened, and you write down who reopened it and why.

And then stage 1 again tomorrow. Not because you are unsure, but because the treatment you gave today has changed the body that will be in front of you. That is the lesson of Chandigarh and it is not a lesson about carelessness.

DID YOU KNOW?

The gland in the chest that shrinks as you grow

The thymus sits high in the chest, behind the breastbone, and it is the one organ in the body that is at its largest in childhood and gets smaller ever afterwards. In a baby it is a fat pink gland the size of a plum; by middle age most of it has quietly turned into fat.

Its job while it is working is unusual and rather beautiful: it is a school. The body's defending cells are sent there to be taught the difference between you and not you, and the ones that cannot learn it — the ones that would attack the body itself — are destroyed there before they ever leave.

Which is why a therapy that calls autoimmune disease the thymus working against the body's own cells has put its finger on the right organ's job description, even where the rest of the account is its own.

The variant kept for acne

Form (b) with (3) Swt added — and Adr expressly left out

Pimples occur because of viral infection. Therefore do not give Adr in the treatment of pimples. Form (b) is used instead, and one step is added to it. (Figure 28.2)

Table 7 — Card: ATF for pimples and acne Supine Side-lying Prone 6 sec

Written	(8) Pan (1) Gal (3) Mu° (1) acid (4) Thymus+Chest (3) Swt
Positions, in order	Supine Supine → side-lying for step 4 Side-lying → supine for step 5 → prone for step 6 Prone
Steps 1 to 5	ATF form (b), entire and unchanged — (8) Pan, (1) Gal, (3) Mu°, (1) acid, (4) Thymus+Chest
Step 6	(3) Swt — the sweat-gland point, patient prone Prone . Added in order to provoke the sweat glands
The exclusion, stated	Adr is not to be given, because pimples occur from viral infection
What it is for	Pimples or blemishes on the face — pimples, acne or black heads — one of the items of group 1 in Table 2, which is why the base formula is ATF at all
Prohibition it inherits	Everything attached to Thymus and Thymus Chest — not to patients of diabetes, with the qualification of the box above ▲ Take care
Points taught in	As ATF form (b); Swt — Face Down, "Face Down"

Three things about that card repay a second reading.

It is a worked example of how a variant is made. The trunk is left exactly as it stands, the ending is chosen by the condition, and one targeted step is added at the end. Nothing is rearranged, nothing is removed, no count in the first four steps is touched. When you meet a condition for which no formula is written, this is the shape the therapy uses, and rule 5 of sequence in How a Formula Is Built is what permits it — with the doorframe attached.

The exclusion is the instruction, and it is doubly written. Adr is not merely absent from this line; the therapy says do not give Adr, and gives the reason. An omission in this wiki is always an instruction, and where the therapy takes the trouble to say the omission out loud, a therapist who restores the point because the line looks unfinished has not tidied a prescription. He has given a different one.

And the honest clinical note beside it. Acne is, in this therapy, one of the dryness complaints of the acid column, and this is the formula written for it. It is also a condition that has treatments of its own that work well — and one pattern in particular ought to send a young woman to a doctor rather than back to the mat: acne that persists into adult life alongside irregular periods, or with unusual hair growth, deserves assessment. Say so, and go on treating.

A CASE FROM PRACTICE

The woman at the Chandigarh camp — what Guruji explained that evening

Recorded in the therapy's own account, in Guruji's own words. The patient's name was not recorded.

Name not recorded · a woman with schoolchildren at home · Chandigarh camp, 2001 · came on day one with low spirits and, as it turned out, tremendous pain at Mu°; came back on day two for "the same treatment as yesterday"

What was found on the first day. She was quite depressed. One chief cause of depression, it has been found, is the increase of acid in the blood. So Guruji checked her himself and told them to give the Acid treatment — because there was tremendous pain in her Mu° point.

What happened on the first day. She got such relief that people began to say a miracle had happened. This is the whole reason for the reputation the treatment had in that hall by the evening.

What was done on the second day, and why it seemed reasonable. She said she had got relief from yesterday's treatment; the crowd was large; and the very same treatment was given, without examination. The full account of that hour — the queue, the meal, the card in the file, the two instructions Guruji gave on the spot — is in How a Formula Is Built.

Why the pain came. In Guruji's own words: "Yesterday her acid was increased, which we had taken out by our treatment. Today they said that they had got relief from yesterday's treatment, so you gave the very same treatment. Then why did the pain come to her? Because today the same treatment was given a second time, so in her body the acid became very much reduced — or say that the alkali increased, one chief symptom of which is an increase of pain in the body. When I checked, today I found pain in Liv°. She was already sad, so she could not bear the pain, and therefore she wept."

What set it right. When she was given the treatment of NAN her body became normal, and she got relief. NAN is the named rescue for an adverse effect from any of our treatments — Setting the Stomach.

The two lessons, as Guruji drew them. "From this we get this lesson: that before giving Acid treatment one must certainly check the pain of Mu°. If there is no pain in Mu° then Acid treatment is not to be given! The second thing is that one and the same person may, on different days, need a different treatment according to the pain points." It is hoped that all neurotherapists will obey these commands.

What this case teaches

A correct treatment repeated onto a corrected body is not a smaller correction. It is a correction in the wrong direction. The formula did on day two exactly what it had done on day one, and that is precisely why it harmed her.

The kingdoms are not fixed. A patient can cross from acid to alkali overnight, and the thing that carried her across was her own treatment. The tender point, not the diagnosis, is what tells you where she is standing this morning.

An increase of pain in the body is the sign of alkali rising, and it is the sign that most often gets blamed on the therapist's pressure. Check Liv° before you conclude you pressed too hard.

An adverse effect has a named action — one treatment of NAN — and a second duty that belongs to this wiki rather than to the camp: write down what happened, at the time, in words, including what was given and what was not examined. An event nobody recorded cannot teach anybody anything afterwards.

And the sentence that governs the whole of : one and the same person may, on different days, need a different treatment. The card is a history. The hand is the prescription.

The gate on ATF, and the two forms it opens. The bar printed in all three of the forms the article writes it in, then the four steps that never change, the fork into the Adr ending and the Thymus + Chest ending with the four circumstances that select it, the acne variant hanging off form (b), and the diabetes clause printed whole.

A MISTAKE STUDENTS MAKE

Treating the diagnosis instead of the direction

A man is diagnosed with cervical spondylosis, which stands squarely in the acid column as a degenerative disease. The therapist writes ATF on the card and gives it every day for three weeks, because the diagnosis has not changed and neither, therefore, has the treatment.

In the second week Mu° went quiet. In the third week Liv° began to be tender, and the patient started saying that his whole body ached — which the therapist heard as the spondylosis getting worse, and answered by giving ATF more carefully.

The disease was in the acid column. The patient was not, by then, in the acid kingdom. The gate is not does this disease belong to acidosis; it is is there more pain at Mu° than at Liv° today. A degenerative disease is a reason to reach for ATF. A tender Mu° is the reason to give it. ▲ Take care

Heavy and light treatment

Three counts cut to a third, because a spoiled gland is provoked less

Everything you have been given so far is the light treatment. There was an earlier generation, heavier at three of its steps, and it is set down here for information — not because it has been withdrawn, but because knowing what was reduced, and why, teaches you more about dosing than any rule could.

For some years now Guruji has been giving only the light treatments given above, from which good results have been found. But until a decade ago he used to give the heavy treatments below, from which too there was benefit.

Key teaching

Why the doses came down — the reason, exactly as it was arrived at

One day it came into Guruji's mind that a gland which is already spoiled should first be provoked less, so that it slowly begins to work. After some days, if there is need, they can be given the heavy treatment, that is more stimulation.

The light treatment can be given to all patients. But it is to be given especially to those who have severe or chronic disease — that is, in whom many of the glands are either spoiled or working less. Such as cancer, hepatitis, cirrhosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and so on.

And where the idea came from: the pulse-polio campaign. The dose of polio drops is very mild indeed. The effect of the first dose lasts only some weeks, but the effect of the second dose remains for many months. So instead of giving one heavy treatment, it is better to give two or three light treatments.

Read that as a piece of clinical discipline rather than as history. A man who has taught a formula for twenty years, and whose patients have done well on it, has gone back to his own established sequences and cut three of their counts to roughly a third. It is a great deal harder to reduce your own doses than to raise them, and a student who understands why this page exists will be slower to add an extra application to a formula "because the patient is strong".

That table is the most instructive thing here. The architecture did not change; the dose did. The opening step and both endings were left exactly where they were, and the reduction fell on the three middle steps — Gal, Mu° and acid — which are the steps aimed at the acid itself. A designer who cuts precisely the loaded part of his own sequence and leaves the frame alone knew which parts of it carried the weight.

And one change is not a dose at all. (4) Ch. Only became (4) Lt. Ch. Only. A step that had been the chest became a step that is the left chest, and in a article whose whole logic is left-for-acid and right-for-alkali, that is a correction of a different kind. What it means is taken up in full under the 1,25 DCC formula, where the therapy states plainly what the two sides of Ch. Only are now known to do differently.

TAKE CARE

The four diseases named in the light-treatment rule carry hazards beyond the dose

Cancer, hepatitis, cirrhosis, rheumatoid arthritis are named as the patients for whom the light treatment is especially meant. Going light is right. It is not sufficient.

In cancer, bone may be fragile where the disease has reached it, and pressure over such a place can break it; new or worsening back pain with weakness, numbness or trouble passing urine is a same-day emergency. In cirrhosis, bruising and bleeding come easily and the belly may be full of fluid. In rheumatoid arthritis, the neck may be unstable — no forceful work there — and the medicines that protect the joints are not to be delayed or displaced. In viral hepatitis, ordinary precautions about blood and body fluids apply to you as well as to the patient.

And the rule that governs all four, stated once for the whole article: a patient may have this treatment alongside proper diagnosis and proper medical care. A patient must never have it instead.

The treatment given to a patient in coma

A formula defined by what it leaves out: no Mu°, both kidneys spoiled

What follows is not a formula for general use. It is a stripped ATF, given to one patient in one extreme condition, and it is taught here for one reason: it is the clearest example in of a formula altered for the organ state of the patient in front of you.

A CASE FROM PRACTICE

The patient in coma, and the account written of it afterwards

Recorded in the therapy's own account, in Guruji's own words. The patient's name was not recorded.

Name not recorded · an adult · came in coma, that is unconscious, with both kidneys spoiled and creatinine greatly raised

What was given. The treatment above, twice. In this, Gal was given and Mu° was not given, because both his kidneys were spoiled, on account of which his creatinine was greatly raised.

What was recorded. By giving this treatment twice, the pH changed from pH 7.32 to pH 7.4.

The account offered for it, in Guruji's own words. "We understand that by this treatment of ours carbonic anhydrase was made, which lives in the red blood cells. Its work is to mix CO₂ with water and make carbonic acid. The red cells have two parts — one is haemoglobin, which picks up oxygen from the lungs and releases that oxygen at another place in the body; and the second is a liquid substance in which there is carbonic anhydrase, whose work is to mix CO₂ with water and change it into carbonic acid. So when the blood cells, moving about in the body, pick up CO₂, and after reaching the lungs separate the water from that liquid substance — that is, change carbonic acid into CO₂ and water — and by the breath that CO₂ goes out, then the remaining water stays in the blood, from which pH 7.32 becomes pH 7.4. In this happening only five to ten minutes will be taken. And the patient who is in coma will come out of the coma. Ordinarily a patient goes into coma at pH 7.1. And on its becoming pH 6.8 his death occurs. In fact this patient had gone into coma from some other cause."

What this case teaches

The omission is the whole teaching. Mu° is the point that provokes the left kidney, and it was left out of an acid formula given to a patient whose kidneys had failed. The therapist checked a creatinine before deciding what to leave out. That is the habit to copy.

The last sentence is the honest one, and it was written by the man whose treatment it was. In fact this patient had gone into coma from some other cause. No claim is made that the formula woke him. A measurement moved, and it was reported with the fact that would complicate it.

A number recorded before and after is worth more than any story. A pH is cheap, universal and impossible to argue with. Wherever a figure like that can be had, get it, and get it from somebody who did not give the treatment.

And the duty that belongs to you rather than to the account: an unconscious person is a medical emergency, minute by minute. Several of the causes of coma are reversible within minutes and fatal if they are not found — the sugar, the breathing, the bleed, the poison, the infection. No pressure formula is ever the thing offered to an unconscious patient, and no delay in getting them to a hospital is defensible. An unconscious person also cannot consent.

DID YOU KNOW?

The fastest worker in the blood

Inside every red cell is an enzyme so quick that it is used as the standard against which other fast enzymes are measured: it can take carbon dioxide and water and join them into carbonic acid — or split them apart again — hundreds of thousands of times a second.

It has to be that quick. Blood spends about a second passing through a capillary, and in that second all the carbon dioxide made by the tissue has to be packed up for the journey; in the lungs, the same second, the whole load has to be taken apart again and breathed out. Without the enzyme the reaction would be far too slow to be of any use.

This is the enzyme named in the account above, and it is also the reason breathing is one of the two levers the body has on the acidity of its own blood. Change how a person breathes and you change their blood chemistry within minutes — which is a genuinely short road, and the shortest one in this article.

When calcium has gone where calcium should not be

Two complete orders, Thymus or Adrenal — give one, never both

Group 5 of Table 2 named a family: calcium deposited between the bones or the joints — bamboo spine, spur. For those patients the ordinary ATF endings are not enough, and the reason is stated in one line.

Those who have deposits of calcium between the joints or in the tissues need both Thymus and Adrenal. For them a new order was made — and it is two orders, not one.

Table 12 — Card: the calcium-deposit order, version I Supine Side-lying 6 sec

Written	(8) Pan (3) Gal (7) Liv (4) acid (4) Thymus+Chest
Positions, in order	Supine Supine → side-lying for step 4 Side-lying → supine for step 5

Step 5	(4) Thymus+Chest — thymus with chest, as one step. This supplies the Thymus half of the stated requirement
What it is for	Deposits of calcium between the joints or in the tissues — Bamboo spine, that is ankylosing spondylitis; Spur, a bone growing outward
Prohibition it inherits	Everything attached to Thymus and Thymus Chest — not to patients of diabetes, with the qualification of the box above ▲ Take care

Who obtained benefit from this treatment	Some Parkinson's patients · those CP children who have hard constipation · those in whose flesh-muscles stiffness comes because of age
Points taught in	As version I; Adr — Face Down, "Face Down"

Two versions, and why they are never merged. Two panels sharing one rule: above, the old heavy ATF against the present light one step by step, with the reason the doses were cut; below, the two calcium-deposit orders side by side with the half each supplies — and the mistake box that says they are choices, not halves.

Two things must be said about that pair, and the first is the one students get wrong.

They are alternatives, not halves of one treatment. The requirement is written as both Thymus and Adrenal, and a reader in a hurry concludes that the two orders are to be run one after the other, or that they can be spliced into a single line ending … (4) Thymus+Chest (10) Adr. Neither is written anywhere. What is written is two complete orders, each with its own counts at acid, each ending in one of the two elements. A therapist who merges them has invented a formula with thirty-five applications and two endings, and has done it in a patient with bone disease. (Figure 28.3)

And the second: look at step 3. In both versions Mu° has been displaced from its usual place by (7) Liv — a step out of the Normal family, at the Normal family's count. In version I Mu° does not appear at all; in version II it returns at step 4, at (4). That is the therapy rearranging the acid formula around a different target, and the counts at acid move with it — four where Mu° is absent, three where it is present. Copy the counts as carefully as the codes.

TAKE CARE

Who is lying on the mat for these two orders

Both versions turn on Liv, Mu°, the acid point and — in version II — ten applications at the adrenal with the patient prone. The patients named for them are the stiff: Parkinson's, cerebral palsy, and age.

Parkinson's. The medicines for it are not stopped or reduced on the basis of a pain point, and stopping them suddenly is dangerous. Such a patient falls easily and may go faint on standing up: sit them up slowly, and never leave them unattended on the edge of a mat.

Cerebral palsy. A child with CP belongs to a team — the doctor, the physiotherapist, the speech therapist, the school. Hands-on work belongs inside that team and never in place of it.

The older patient whose muscles have stiffened. Ask the question that decides everything else: have the bones been found to be thin? has there been a fracture from a small fall? have steroids been taken for a long time? If any answer is yes, there is no forceful spinal pressure and no leverage on that back, whatever the formula says.

A MISTAKE STUDENTS MAKE

Merging the two calcium-deposit orders because "both are needed"

The sentence says those who have deposits of calcium between the joints or in the tissues need both Thymus and Adrenal. A therapist reads it, sees one order ending in Thymus+Chest and another ending in (10) Adr, and writes a card that runs the first straight into the second — or gives version I in the morning and version II in the evening, on the grounds that this is the only way to deliver "both".

He has written a formula nobody has taught him. Two orders exist because two orders were made; the therapy sets them out as I and II and tells you who benefited, and it does not join them. It also does not tell you to give them on the same day. Where the material gives you two complete sequences and no instruction to combine them, they are choices.

The cost here is not theoretical. Version II ends at ten adrenal applications, the heaviest in the article, and the patients named for these orders include CP children and elderly people whose muscles have stiffened with age — two groups in whom dose discipline matters most. Give one order. Write down which one. Change it next time if you must, and write that down too. ▲ Take care

The Alkali Treatment Formula — and the question that must be answered first

UDF before ALTF: the alkali may only look raised because the acid fell

Cross the navel and everything reverses. Those who have the diseases or symptoms of alkalosis — if we check their Liv°, that is the point of the right kidney, it will be found that there is more pain in Liv°, and in them there is less pain in Mu°, that is the point of the left kidney. For such patients a formula was made which reduces the pains of the organs of the right side — that is, Gal, Liv, Liv°, Rt. Ov. and so on. Then it was seen that from it the symptoms of alkalosis come to an end, and therefore it was given the name Alkali Treatment Formula (ALTF).

If the article stopped there, ALTF would be the mirror of ATF and you would give it wherever Liv° was the tender point. It does not stop there, and what follows is the shrewdest single piece of reasoning in the formulary.

Key teaching

Why a patient's alkali may only appear to be raised

Then it occurred to Guruji that it may also be that the alkaline which appears increased in the patient is in reality normal. But because the quantity of acid in his stomach is less, his alkaline will appear greater even though it is normal.

How you catch it: on checking such people there is often pain in the Gas point as well, and on asking it will be found that undigested food comes in that patient's stool.

What that means: the flow of blood in his stomach is not sufficient, from which hydrochloric acid is not being made in the proper quantity, from which the proteins will not be digested properly.

So the finding at Liv° is real and the reading taken from it may still be wrong — not because the point lied, but because the other side of the balance has fallen. Correct the missing acid first, and see what is left.

That is a habit of mind worth more than any formula here. A quantity can look too big because the thing it is being compared with has got smaller. The therapy noticed it, gave it a test you can perform with your hands and one question, and then wrote a rule that forbids you to treat the sign until the artefact has been excluded.

Now the chain the therapy sets out for why the stomach's acid matters so much — because a student who has it can explain to a patient, in half a minute, why a therapist working on alkali is asking about his stools.

Key teaching

What the stomach's acid is for

When hydrochloric acid is made properly in the stomach, only then will the stomach's pH go to 3 or below.

At that very pH, pepsin will be made from pepsinogen in the stomach, which will digest some of the protein of the food.

Afterwards, in the duodenum and jejunum, the pancreas's enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin, and the other enzymes of the intestines, will digest those proteins further — only after which those proteins will be fit to be absorbed in the ileum. And that digested matter, in which there are nutrients — nourishing elements — and electrolytes, is sent to the liver and to the other cells, to be of use to all the cells.

If hydrochloric acid is not made properly, then many hormones and enzymes of the body will not be made, and from that big diseases will certainly come.

And the second thing: because the stomach's acid goes from pH 3 down to 1, from being so strongly acid no virus and so on can stay alive. If acid is not made in the stomach in the right quantity, then bacteria or virus too will remain alive.

To correct UDF, the formula first used was this one.

Table 15 — Card: the first UDF formula Seated Supine 6 sec × 3

Written	(10) Medulla (1) Gas Only – 6 points × 3 treatments
Positions, in order	Seated for step 1 Seated → supine for step 2 Supine
Step 1	(10) Medulla — seated, the nape, both sides below the ears Seated . Given to provoke the vagus nerve, which will provoke many organs of the digestive system and will increase the stomach's acid threefold
Step 2	(1) Gas Only – 6 points — both thighs, the Gas Only thigh form, six stations in one pass Both sides . From this we provoke the stomach, so that HCl, pepsin and so on are made properly
The rounds	× 3 treatments — the whole sequence is one round, performed with its rest and repeated, three rounds in all. Table 13 and Table 8, How a Formula Is Built
What it does	By giving the UDF formula the hydrochloric acid in the stomach will increase. And it has been found that from this alone the symptoms of alkali are at once reduced in many patients
The compulsory element	After the above treatment, several new UDF formulas have been made, in which other points have been added for different kinds of patients. But in all UDF formulas the chief and compulsory thing is — Gas Only
The tail of every UDF formula	At the end of all UDF formulas, after the Fast treatment, the Mild Ajay Normal formula is to be given — in which from (8) Pan the digestive enzymes of the pancreas will come out, and from Gas 'I' absorption will increase. Both of these are very necessary for improving the digestive process
The prohibition, in its own ruled box	To patients of diabetes and of cancer, (10) Medulla is not to be given in the UDF formula ▲ Take care
Where the UDF family is taught whole	Clearing the Ash, "Clearing the Ash" — every generation of the UDF formulas, the simplest treatment, OLD UDF point by point, the (½) Ku treatment, and the stomach-setting and CP variants
Points taught in	Medulla — Seated I — Brain, Medulla, Neck; Gas Only, Gas 'I', Pan — The Front of the Body I

Four things in that card are the whole of what this article needs from UDF, and each of them will be developed in Clearing the Ash.

Gas Only is compulsory and (10) Medulla is not. In every generation of the UDF formula ever made, whatever else was added for whatever kind of patient, Gas Only is there. And the one element that is withheld — in diabetes, in cancer — is the Medulla step. Learn the pair together: the mandatory element and the withheld element sit side by side in the shortest UDF formula there is.

The prohibition is the standing one. (10) Medulla is not given to patients of diabetes or of cancer; to heart patients only (10) Left Medulla is given. That caution was established with its reasoning in How a Formula Is Built and is inherited by every formula that contains the point — here, and in Chole, Vater, CCK Normal and Formula No. 4 in Setting the Stomach. It is applied, not re-argued.

The inseparable pair is visible in it. Gas Only is followed by Gas 'I' — and where the constipation is severe, (2) S4, S5 goes with the Gas 'I'. That pairing is one of the four established in How a Formula Is Built and it governs the UDF formulas as it governs the digestive ones.

And the diseases it is written for are not small. Undigested food has been found in the motion of almost all the patients of these diseases: fits, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, pain in the whole body, AIDS, idiopathic scoliosis, hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, lumps in the whole body, and so on. And all the patients of these diseases get immediate relief from the treatment of UDF.

TAKE CARE

Two names on that list that cannot wait, and two more that need a diagnosis

Cancer and AIDS appear in the list above. Say the rule plainly to yourself before you ever say it to a family. Neither diagnosis may be delayed, displaced or managed by anything in this wiki. HIV has treatment that turns it into a condition a person lives with for decades, and interrupting that treatment is catastrophic. A curable cancer treated late is often no longer a curable cancer. Supportive hands-on work alongside proper treatment is a reasonable and kind thing to offer; the same work instead of it is not.

Idiopathic scoliosis in a growing child is watched with X-rays and braced at defined stages, and the window in which the curve can be prevented from worsening closes when the child stops growing. Missing it cannot be undone.

"Lumps in the whole body" and "pain in the whole body" are descriptions, not diagnoses. A lump is something to be identified.

When ALTF is finally given

When, after giving the UDF formula for some days, the motion — that is the stool — begins to come properly and the pain of Gas goes away, if even then they have pain in several points such as Gal, Liv, Liv° and so on, only then is the ALTF formula to be given.

Read that sentence as four conditions and a gate, because that is how it must be used at the mat.

THE METHOD, STEP BY STEP

From the tender Liv° to ALTF — the staging over days

This is a sequence of decisions spread across a week or more, and it is the one thing in this article a table cannot carry, because its stages are separated by days rather than by seconds.

Stage 1 — the finding that starts it. Liv° tender, Mu° quiet or much less. Write both grades. This is not yet a reason to give ALTF.

Stage 2 — look for the artefact. Palpate Gas, and ask the question that goes with it: does anything come out in the stool looking as it went in? Seeds of tomato or bhindī; leaves of spinach, methī, dhaniyā, curry leaves; groundnut, gram, peas, corn coming out whole. If Gas is tender, or undigested food is coming, or both — the apparent alkali may be an artefact of a stomach that is not making its acid.

Stage 3 — give the UDF formula, for some days. Not one session. Some days, with the compulsory Gas Only, the withheld Medulla step where the patient is diabetic or has cancer, and the tail — the Fast treatment, then Mild Ajay Normal. The formulas of that family, generation by generation, are Clearing the Ash.

Stage 4 — the three things that must have changed. The stool begins to come properly. The pain of Gas goes away. And you re-examine, every day, as you did on the first day.

Stage 5 — the gate. If even then there is pain at several points such as Gal, Liv, Liv° — only then is ALTF given. If the right-sided points have gone quiet along with Gas, the patient is well and there is nothing to give. Many patients never reach stage 5, and that is the formula working, not the formula being skipped.

There are several forms of the ALTF formula, which benefit different kinds of patients. The one below gives benefit to almost everybody, and is especially very good for those patients who have more pain in the glands on the right side of the navel, while there is less pain in the glands on the left side of the navel.

What it is for	The alkali picture of Tables 17 and 18 below
The reasoning attached to the name	From the increase of the quantity of alkali, the volume of blood in the body will increase, from which the patient's blood pressure will also increase. And if acid increases, then because the volume of the blood is reduced, the patient's blood pressure may become less than normal, which is called low BP. After giving the treatment of ALTF, the raised blood pressure begins to come down
Points taught in	Gal, Liv, Liv° — The Front of the Body I; Rt. Ov. and Rt. Ch. Only — The Front of the Body II

And then the two reduced forms, which are the therapy's own discipline made visible.

What changed	Both (1) Rt. Ov. and (1) Liv° are omitted. The skeleton remains: Gal, the three-station Liv, the right chest

ALTF, and the two findings that shorten it. The prerequisite as a gate at the top, with the reason a patient's alkali may only appear raised and the two things that catch it; then the subtractive ladder — the chief form and its two reduced forms, each removed step greyed and struck through rather than deleted.

Key teaching

The sentence that governs all three forms

Such different treatments were made because, if any organ has no need, then it should not be provoked. Provoke only when there is pain — otherwise not.

That is the plainest statement of this therapy's internal discipline anywhere in , and once you see it you will find it everywhere. It is the same principle as the bar on ATF where Mu° is quiet; the same principle as the day-by-day dose of the max. rule in Setting the Stomach; the same principle as the omission of Mu° in the coma case; and the same principle that produced these three cards instead of one.

The dose is set by the finding. A point that does not hurt is not treated.

Notice how little ALTF is. Five steps at counts of one and two, against the eight, three and six of the acid formula — a light treatment for the family the therapy itself calls the harder one to correct. That is not a contradiction; it is the same instinct as the light-treatment reform two sections back, arriving at a formula that was built light from the beginning. (Figure 28.4)

Table 20 — ALTF: the chief symptoms for which it is given — first check the pain of Liv°

Pain in Liv° · pain in the ring finger of the right hand Right	Running of the nose
Very little flow in the menses, or flow coming for only a day or two and then stopping	Loose motions (dast)
Pain in the upper or back part of the head	Pain in the organs of the right side of the body Right

Table 21 — ALTF: the chief diseases and symptoms for which it is given

Fits or convulsions, that is attacks of trembling	Epilepsy, mirgī
Spasticity, that is the muscles becoming stiff	CP, cerebral palsy
HBP — high blood pressure	Cancer (karkarog)
Tumour, fibroid, cyst	Stammering or lisping (haklānā yā tutlānā), and so on

TAKE CARE

The last three rows of that table are where a therapist earns his reputation or loses it

A lump is a diagnosis to be made, not a pattern to be treated. A lump in the breast, the neck, the testicle or the belly needs to be identified by somebody who can identify it, and that is a matter of weeks, not months. Fibroids are a common and treatable cause of heavy bleeding, pressure and difficulty conceiving, and they are found easily.

Fits in a child are diagnosed and treated, and the treatment is taken every day. A child whose medicine is stopped or missed is in real danger, and that danger is not a matter of opinion. Treat alongside; never in place of; and never be the reason a tablet was skipped.

Stammering has skilled treatment of its own, and the earlier a child is seen the better it goes.

None of this makes the formula less useful. It makes the therapist more useful. Say out loud, in front of the family, which door you are sending them through and why — it is the single habit that most distinguishes a therapist people trust from one they merely like.

A CASE FROM PRACTICE

The schoolteacher whose alkali was never raised at all

A composite, assembled to teach the prerequisite rather than taken from one patient's file.

Sujata Rane · 44 · primary schoolteacher · Nashik · came with loose motions three times a day for two years, a nose that ran every morning, and blood pressure that had been called "borderline high" twice

What she said, in her own words. "Pet saaf hi nahin rehta — teen baar jaana padta hai, aur pет halka bhi nahin lagta." The stomach never feels clear; she has to go three times, and even then it does not feel light. She had been told she had a nervous stomach and had stopped mentioning it.

What was observed and palpated. Comfortable, thin, a little anxious about the blood pressure. Liv° on the right was tender at three plus; Mu° on the left was silent. The ring finger of the right hand was tender and the left was not. So far, a copybook alkali picture — and a therapist in a hurry would have written ALTF on the card in the first four minutes.

The finding that changed the plan. Gas was tender too. Asked the stool question in the words her household uses — does anything come out looking as it went in? — she answered at once and with some embarrassment: tomato seeds always; spinach leaves she could recognise; and chana she had stopped eating because it "came out whole". She had never thought to mention it because nobody had asked, and because it did not seem like an illness.

Which reports mattered. Her blood pressure readings mattered, and were taken again at rest, on two visits, before anything was said about them. A thyroid test mattered and was asked for, because scanty or altered periods, bowel change and tiredness together are worth one blood test; it came back normal, and that was written on the card as a thing checked rather than a thing assumed. An old ultrasound report of the abdomen changed nothing. A vitamin D result she was anxious about changed nothing about what was given, and was sent back to her physician.

What was chosen, and why. Not ALTF. The UDF formula — (10) Medulla (1) Gas Only – 6 points × 3 treatments, with the Fast treatment and Mild Ajay Normal as its tail — on the reasoning that her alkali might be normal and only appear raised because her stomach was not making acid. She was told that reasoning in four sentences, and she repeated it back better than most students do.

Session by session. Nine days. By the fourth day the morning nose had eased, which nobody had promised her. By the seventh, she was going twice instead of three times and the stool was holding together. By the ninth, Gas was quiet and she could no longer find anything recognisable in the pan.

The re-examination on the tenth day, which is the whole point of the case. Liv° was still tender — but at one plus, not three; Gal was tender; Rt. Ov. was not. So the gate opened, and what was given was not the chief form of ALTF but reduced form 1 — (1) Gal (1) Liv – 3 points (1) Rt.Ov (2) Rt. Ch. Only… and then corrected on the mat, because Rt. Ov. was silent: reduced form 2, (1) Gal (1) Liv – 3 points (2) Rt. Ch. Only × 3 treatments. Six applications. Three rounds, ninety seconds apart.

What went wrong because something was withheld. In the third week the loose motions came back for four days. Nothing in the plan explained it. It emerged — from her sister, not from her — that she had been taking a powder from a shop "for the stomach" throughout, on and off, and had taken it heavily that week because a wedding was coming. She had not counted it as medicine. The question that finds this is never what medicines do you take; it is what do you put in your mouth for your health?

What this case teaches

A tender Liv° is a finding, not a prescription. The prerequisite exists precisely for the patient whose alkali column fits perfectly.

The stool question is asked in the patient's own kitchen vocabulary, or it is not answered. Tomato seeds, spinach leaves, chana gets an answer; do you have undigested food in your stool gets a blank look.

The reduced forms are used, not admired. Two points were dropped from the chief form because two points did not hurt, and the therapy's own sentence governs it: if any organ has no need, then it should not be provoked.

Watch what improves before the thing you were aiming at. Her nose eased on the fourth day of a formula given for her stomach. That is the kind of observation from which this article's formulas were built in the first place.

A MISTAKE STUDENTS MAKE

Giving ALTF on the strength of a tender Liv°

A woman comes with loose motions, a running nose and periods that last a day and a half. Liv° is tender at three plus and Mu° is silent. Every row of the alkali column fits. The therapist gives ALTF, and it is a reasonable-looking decision made by somebody who has read the article attentively.

He has skipped the one rule in this article that is written as a prohibition. Even when there is pain in Liv° we should not give ALTF first. We should first give the UDF formula. Had he palpated Gas and asked the stool question, he might well have found the reason her alkali looked raised: a stomach not making its acid, protein not being digested, and food coming through her as it went in.

What he has then done is reduce the alkali of a patient whose alkali was normal — pushing her, exactly as the woman at Chandigarh was pushed, past the middle and into the opposite kingdom. And because ALTF is a light formula he may do it for a fortnight before anybody notices.

The order is the treatment. UDF first; re-examine; and only if even then the right-sided points still hurt, ALTF.

The 1,25 DCC family

A formula built out of physiology — sun, liver, parathyroid, kidney

This is a unique formula in which Guruji, having practised the facts of physiology, has converted them, in his own unique style, into a medicine-free treatment. It is given in order to increase the quantity of calcium in the blood. Along with this, it also helps in improving the functions of the kidneys, and in the digestion and absorption of all the necessary elements.

Everything else in this article was built from observation and then explained. This one was built the other way round: a chain of physiology was read, organ by organ, and a point was found for each organ in the chain. It is the clearest worked example in the wiki of a formula assembled deliberately, and it is worth learning the chain before the formula, because once you have the chain the formula cannot be forgotten.

THE WORDS WE USE

1,25 DCC — the chemical the formula is named after

1,25 DCC — 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol — is a hormone whose work is to cause the absorption of calcium. Its raw material, that is its basic substance, is cholesterol. It belongs to the sterol family, and is therefore called a steroid hormone.

In ordinary words: it is the finished, working form of what everybody calls vitamin D. The thing that lies under the skin and the thing that is swallowed in a capsule are both raw material. This is the end of that road, and it is the form that actually does the job.

Nothing whatever is administered. The formula is named after the hormone whose making it means to provoke, exactly as Chole is named after cholecytokinin and Vater after a doorway. When a patient asks whether you are giving a vitamin, the answer is no, and the honest sentence is: this is the name of a sequence of pressures, and it is named after a chemical your own body makes.

From eating curd, milk, spinach, radish (mūlī), onion (kāndā, that is pyāz) and, among fruits, banana, a great deal of calcium is obtained. Its absorption is done by the villi of the ileum, and from there it mixes into the blood. But in the ileum its absorption will happen only if there is a sufficient quantity of 1,25 DCC in the blood. Otherwise the whole of the calcium will go out in the stool.

And there is one more matter. Suppose the quantity of calcium in the blood is correct but 1,25 DCC is not there. Then, when the contents of the blood are filtered in the kidneys, their tubules will not reabsorb the calcium, and the calcium of the blood will keep going out through the urine.

Key teaching

What 1,25 DCC does, and what happens when it is missing

1,25 DCC raises the quantity of calcium in the blood by acting upon two different organs.

One — the intestine. It acts upon the cells of the villi of the ileum, so that they absorb calcium and phosphate. For this it causes a special kind of calcium binding protein to be prepared in the cells of the intestine, useful for delivering calcium inside the cytoplasm of the cell.

Two — the kidney. It acts upon the tubules of the kidneys so that they reabsorb calcium and do not let calcium go out through the urine — and in its place let phosphate go out.

If 1,25 DCC is not present in the blood, 90% of the calcium of the food will go out with the motion and the remaining 10% will go out through the urine.

And inside that first job is a piece of timing which is a dosing instruction, and the only one of its kind in this article.

Key teaching

The forty-eight hours, and what follows from them

To prepare the calcium binding protein, 1,25 DCC takes about two days.

But even after the 1,25 DCC has gone, this protein remains inside the cells for several weeks, so the effect on intestinal calcium absorption lasts many days.

Since this protein takes 48 hours to be formed, if 1,25 DCC is to be given a second time it should be given leaving one day in between.

That sentence is written about the hormone, and it is the reason the formula that provokes the hormone is not a formula you give every single morning without thinking. A therapist who gives it daily because daily is his habit is asking a cell to begin a two-day job afresh every twenty-four hours.

How 1,25 DCC is made in the body

The 1,25 DCC production line, and where each point stands on it. The pathway walked in the order the body runs it — sun on the skin, liver, parathyroid, the two kidneys — with the point of the formula aimed at each step printed beneath it, then the two organs the finished hormone acts on and the balancing pair that closes the formula.

In the absorption and use of calcium, vitamin D has an important place. Beneath our skin a chemical named 7-hydroxycholecalciferol (7,HCC) lies deposited — the inactive form of vitamin D. When the ultraviolet rays of the sun's light fall on it, it changes into D₃, that is cholecalciferol, and mixes into the blood. (Figure 28.5)

When this blood reaches the liver, the liver changes it into 25 HCC (25-hydroxycholecalciferol), another form of vitamin D. In this form, as much vitamin D as is needed will come out of the liver, and the rest remains stored in the liver itself for future use.

When this blood reaches the parathyroid gland, and if the quantity of calcium in the blood is less than 9–11 mg/dl, a hormone named Parathormone (PTH) comes out of the parathyroid gland. All these things travel in the blood and reach the kidneys. Then the kidneys change 25 HCC into the hormone named 1,25 DCC. But for this work, the presence of PTH is essential. Without PTH, 1,25 DCC cannot be produced at all.

Table 22 — In brief: the making of 1,25 DCC, in four steps

	The step	What happens
1	Rays of the sun → skin	7,HCC (7-hydroxycholecalciferol) is changed into D₃
2	7,HCC → by way of the blood → liver	25 HCC (25-hydroxycholecalciferol)
3	25 HCC → by way of the blood → parathyroid gland	PTH will come out
4	25 HCC + PTH → by way of the blood → kidney	1,25 DCC

The chief point of all is that sunlight is extremely necessary for the strength of the bones. This is the very reason why those who work in the fields or in the sun rarely get osteoporosis or other troubles of the bones. In cities people often shy away from the sun, and so their bones do not become strong; and if at some time they have to lift a heavy load, then all sorts of diseases of the bones come to them. If one makes it a habit to take, every day, ten to fifteen minutes of the gentle rays of the morning sun on the beads of the spine, it will be extremely beneficial for health.

How the formula was assembled

Because in India there is a good deal of sunshine, the need to make D₃ does not, to a large extent, remain here. From the facts above we understand that only if the liver, PTH and the kidneys work properly will 1,25 DCC be made — otherwise not.

On that basis the first formula was made, in which the liver, the parathyroid gland and the kidneys are stimulated in order.

Table 23 — Card: Pure 1,25 DCC Supine 6 sec

Read the four steps against the four steps of Table 22 and the formula disappears into its own reasoning. Liver, parathyroid, kidney, kidney — the production line, provoked in the order in which the body runs it. Nothing is arbitrary and nothing is decorative, and a student who can recite the pathway can write this card from memory for the rest of his life.

Later, from his own singular experience, and in order to make this formula still more effective, Guruji mixed into it two more points — (8) Ch. Only and (20) ↑|↓.

Left Chest Only	The pain of Mu° is reduced — that is, it reduces the symptoms of acidosis
Right Chest Only	The pain of Liv° is reduced — that is, it reduces the symptoms of alkalosis

The last two rows are printed as a note, and they are the most useful two lines in the article for a therapist who has been paying attention.

Key teaching

The two sides of Ch. Only, and what that settles

Nowadays it has been found that the treatments of the two sides of Chest Only work differently.

From Left Chest Only, the pain of Mu° is reduced — that is, it reduces the symptoms of acidosis.

From Right Chest Only, the pain of Liv° is reduced — that is, it reduces the symptoms of alkalosis.

Now go back two sections. The light form of ATF specifies (4) Lt. Ch. Only where the heavy form said only Ch. Only — and ATF is the acid formula, so the left chest is exactly the side it wants. ALTF ends at (2) Rt. Ch. Only — the alkali formula, and the right chest is exactly the side it wants. The lateralisation that looked like a small revision on page 267 is the same discovery arriving in its proper place.

And notice the word the therapy uses to date it. Nowadays. It is written as a thing that has come to be known, in a book of settled instructions, and it is left standing exactly as it is.

Two notes travel with (8) Ch. Only and must not be separated from it. It is not a still press but a rub, and the left side is rubbed first and the right side afterwards — which, given what the two sides are now known to do, means the acid-reducing side is given first and the alkali-reducing side second. And the pairing with (20) ↑|↓ is a balance mechanism, not two points that happen to sit together: each on its own pushes the internal environment one way, and together they hold it where the rest of the formula has put it. The balance pair, in all its counts and variants, belongs to Water and Salt, "Water and Salt"; rule 2 and rule 3 of sequence, which govern the order in which the two are given, are How a Formula Is Built.

The magnesium preface

Then it was learnt from physiology that for calcium to be absorbed properly, the binding — that is, the joining — of magnesium with it is necessary. Magnesium is stored in the liver. And the storehouse of the liver is the gall bladder. So the treatment was changed in this manner.

Table 26 — Card: the 1,25 DCC formula with the magnesium preface Supine Prone 6 sec

Written	I (3) Gal (7) Liv — for the binding of magnesium · II the 1,25 DCC formula → (7) Liv (4) Para (7) Liv° (7) Mu° (8) Ch. Only (20) ↑\	↓
What the Roman numerals mean	Part one, then part two, as one treatment, in that order
I · Step 1	(3) Gal — right sole down the patient's left thigh, hip crease → knee Left . For the binding of magnesium
I · Step 2	(7) Liv — left arm + left thigh together Left . Magnesium is stored in the liver
II	The 1,25 DCC formula entire, beginning again at (7) Liv
Why Gal opens it	Magnesium is stored in the liver, and the storehouse of the liver is the gall bladder
What it is for	Everything the 1,25 DCC formula is for, with the absorption of calcium made proper by the magnesium binding
Points taught in	Gal, Liv — The Front of the Body I; the rest as above

Note that Liv is given in part I and again at the head of part II, and the counts differ — (3) Gal (7) Liv first, then the formula's own (7) Liv. That is not a printing accident and it is not an invitation to economise by giving Liv once. Part I is a preface with its own purpose; part II is the formula. Where the therapy writes two parts, two parts are given.

Intrinsic factor, and vitamin B₁₂

From this treatment the patients began to feel very well, saying that digestion and absorption had improved. Then a further thought: for the absorption of vitamin B₁₂ it is necessary that intrinsic factor be made in the stomach; only then, on reaching the ileum, will vitamin B₁₂ be stored in the liver. Otherwise the enzymes of the stomach and the intestine will digest it — that is, finish it off.

The stock of vitamin B₁₂ in the liver lasts five to six years. If someone has symptoms of vitamin B₁₂ deficiency, it means that for several years it has not been getting stored in his body. And for intrinsic factor to be made properly, the blood circulation in the stomach must be proper; in this therapy, for that we give Gas Only.

Table 27 — Card: the three-part sequence for combined calcium and vitamin B₁₂ deficiency Supine Prone 6 sec

Written	I (1) Gas Only – 6 points · II (3) Gal (7) Liv · III the 1,25 DCC formula → (7) Liv (4) Para (7) Liv° (7) Mu° (8) Ch. Only (20) ↑\	↓
Given to	Those who have a deficiency of both calcium and vitamin B₁₂ — in order to take the greatest benefit from the 1,25 DCC formula, it has been found better to give the treatment in this manner
Part I	(1) Gas Only – 6 points — both thighs, six stations in one pass Both sides . To stimulate the stomach — for making intrinsic factor
Part II	(3) Gal (7) Liv Left . For the magnesium stored in the liver — only by joining with magnesium will the absorption of calcium be proper
Part III	The 1,25 DCC formula entire
What the whole sequence is for	The absorption of calcium and B₁₂ and all such nutritive elements
Where B₁₂ is taught whole	Vitamin and Gene Formulas, "The Missing Links" — B₁₂, folic and pure folic acid, the deficiency picture, and the gene formulas
Points taught in	Gas Only — The Front of the Body I; the rest as above

Three parts, and each of them is a door the calcium and the B₁₂ have to pass. Part I opens the stomach so that intrinsic factor is made and the B₁₂ survives the journey. Part II fetches the magnesium without which the calcium will not bind. Part III is the pathway itself. Read it downwards and it is a supply chain; read it upwards and it is a list of the three places a deficiency can be manufactured in a person who is eating perfectly well.

Calcium, the thyroid, and why a thin bone is not a simple thing

The quantity of calcium in the plasma should ordinarily be from 9.00 to 11.00 mg/dl. If there is an extreme deficiency of calcium, even the heart can fail. So that this may not happen, when the need arises the PTH of the parathyroid gland will tell the osteoclasts to take calcium out of the bones and put it into the plasma.

When the quantity of calcium goes above 11.00 mg/dl, from the thyroid gland a hormone named calcitonin will come out, which will tell the osteoblasts to put that excess calcium into the bones.

Calcium is found in milk, curd, paneer, jaggery (gur) and sesame (til) — more in black sesame. In banana, calcium is less and potassium is more.

Key teaching

What calcitonin does and does not govern

Note that calcitonin has no control over PTH. The control of calcitonin is only over osteoclasts and osteoblasts.

This effect too is found more in growing children. From the effect of calcitonin, within a few hours of calcium becoming deficient in the blood, PTH comes out in heavy quantity, which negates the effect of calcitonin.

Hypothyroidism means T₃ and T₄ being low — and this work of the thyroid gland depends upon the pituitary gland. The work of calcitonin depends only upon the quantity of calcium.

From calcitonin working less, osteoporosis will occur, in which the bones become hollow.

And where the quantity is high: when the calcium in the blood is more than 11 mg/dl, the parathyroid gland will stop the intestine and the osteoclasts from absorbing any more calcium from the bones, and will let calcium go out through the urine.

Now the loop that brings the whole article back to the thyroid chain of Table 2, and it closes in a way students find satisfying.

If the quantity of calcium in the blood is less than 9 mg/dl, the muscles cannot work properly. And for all the glands to work properly, and to send out their secretion regularly, the muscles beside them must work properly. If the T₃ and T₄ hormones of the thyroid do not come out in the proper quantity it is called hypothyroidism — and because of the deficiency of calcium in the blood the thyroid gland will be unable to work properly, so this too can be a chief cause of hypothyroidism.

On this inference Guruji thought that those who have hypothyroidism will benefit from the 1,25 DCC formula. Especially those children who have symptoms of mental slowness (mand buddhi) because of hypothyroidism have benefited greatly. In the treatment of such children this thinking is singular and matchless.

TAKE CARE

The promise from , kept here: (4) Para in osteoporosis

Those who have osteoporosis: do not give only (4) Para separately. They must be given the full 1,25 DCC formula.

Read the bar exactly where it is cut, because it is the most carefully cut prohibition in the atlas and it is easy to get backwards. The point is not forbidden. The point alone is forbidden.

When (4) Para is given separately by itself, it will lift calcium from the bone and put it into the blood — which is precisely why it is the point used where bone has grown at some unwanted place anywhere in the body. In a thin skeleton it is the last thing wanted, and it is the one action that would follow from giving the point on its own.

Inside the 1,25 DCC formula, (4) Para maintains the amount of calcium in the blood by means of the PTH hormone, working with Liv ahead of it and the two kidney points behind it — a production line, not a single lever. So the instruction is not never give (4) Para. It is never give (4) Para alone; give the whole formula.

A therapist who reads the point code and not the word beside it will get this wrong in exactly the patient who can least afford it.

The balance rule, and the four versions chosen by the stool

In this formula, (20) ↑|↓ has been given along with (8) Ch. Only. Here is the observation that makes the rest of this section possible.

Key teaching

The balance rule — a proportion, not a list

It has been seen that from Ch. Only alkali becomes less — that is, the symptoms of acid increase — whereas from Round Arrow acid becomes less, that is the symptoms of alkali increase.

Not only that: to balance (20) ↑|↓, (8) Ch. Only is needed, whereas to balance (4) Ch. Only, (10) ↑|↓ is sufficient.

Since neurotherapy treats not the disease but the condition of the body, this observation has been used in a remarkable way: the two counts are deliberately unbalanced in one direction or the other according to what the patient's body needs today.

Twice the chest, twice the spine. Because the rule is stated as a proportion, the four versions that follow are not four things to memorise. They are derivable — and a therapist who has the proportion can check any card he is handed.

And before the treatment is given at all, two things are checked. One should check how much pain there is in Liv° and Mu°. And along with this one should ask the patient whether the stool that comes in his motion is medium or hard. During sixty years of tapasyā it was found that one and the same formula does not apply to all patients. Changing the treatment according to the condition of the patient will give greater benefit.

THE METHOD, STEP BY STEP

Choosing today's version of the 1,25 DCC formula

Four stages, before the foot goes anywhere. The four cards themselves are in Table 28; this is how you arrive at one of them.

Stage 1 — palpate Liv° and Mu°, and grade them. Right first, then left, one after the other, never together. Write both grades on the card even when one of them is silent.

Stage 2 — ask the stool question, and ask it for form and not for frequency. Not are you constipated. Is the motion banana-like, or hard, or medium, or thin — and how many times a day? Indian households will answer this precisely and without embarrassment if you offer them the comparisons the therapy itself uses: banana-like · very hard, in small small pieces, like a goat's motion · medium, cow-dung-like · very thin, three or four times a day.

Stage 3 — read the answer as a direction. Hard and infrequent, with Mu° tender → a great deal of acid; the acid must be reduced further, and the alkali must not be reduced too much. Medium → alkali increased somewhat. Thin and frequent → alkali increased a good deal; the acid must be increased more.

Stage 4 — pick the version, and write the whole line out. Not "1,25 DCC". The line, with today's chest count, today's spine count, and — where the order has been turned about — the underline beneath the reversed points, so that tomorrow's hands do not give the usual order out of habit. See Table 13, How a Formula Is Built, for what the underline commits you to, and The Record That Shows the Truth, "The Record That Shows the Truth", for the card.

Table 28 — The four versions of the 1,25 DCC formula, selected by the form of the stool

The stool	What it means	The formula	What changed
Banana-like, and the stomach clear daily — ordinarily people's motion is like this	Ordinary	(7) Liv (4) Para (7) Liv° (7) Mu° (8) Ch. Only (20) ↑\	↓	The standard formula
Very hard indeed, and coming in small small pieces, like a goat's motion, coming after one or two days, or coming only with great difficulty — severe constipation; such people have pain in Mu°	There is a great deal of acid in the body. We have to reduce the acid further, and must not reduce the alkali too much	(7) Liv (4) Para (7) Liv° (7) Mu° (4) Ch. Only (20) ↑\	↓	Chest cut from (8) to (4), spine left at (20) — when we give (4) Ch. Only the acid will not increase so much
Medium — cow-dung-like	The alkali has increased somewhat	(7) Liv (4) Para (7) Mu° (7) Liv° (20) ↑\	↓ (8) Ch. Only — Ulta 1,25 DCC	Mu° is given first and Liv° afterwards; and (20) ↑\	↓ is given first and (8) Ch. Only afterwards. Counts unchanged. A line is ruled underneath so that the therapist keeps in mind that here the order has been changed
Coming three or four times in the day, and the stool very thin	The alkali has increased a good deal. In the treatment we have to increase the acid more	(7) Liv (4) Para (7) Mu° (7) Liv° (10) ↑\	↓ (8) Ch. Only	Order reversed as above, and the spine cut from (20) to (10) — *when we give (20) ↑\	↓ the acid will be reduced more, but when we give (10) ↑\	↓ the acid will not be reduced so much*

And the explanation printed with that last version, which must travel with it because it is the therapy breaking its own balancing rule deliberately and saying so:

To balance (10) ↑|↓ one ought to give (4) Ch. Only only. By giving (8) Ch. Only, the alkali will be reduced more in comparison with (4) Ch. Only — which is necessary for patients who have thin stools.

That bracket is worth more than the formula it sits beside. A rule is stated; a case arrives in which the rule must be broken; the break is made on purpose, in a stated direction, for a stated reason, and it is written down beside the line so that nobody mistakes it for an error. That is what a working rule looks like in the hands of somebody who made it.

TAKE CARE

The note about the kidneys, and what follows from it for your hands

If the kidneys become spoiled, then in such a condition 1,25 DCC will not be made, and those patients can get osteoporosis, in which the bones become so hollow that they cannot bear even a little pressure.

That sentence is written as an explanation. Take it as an instruction as well, because the formula it is printed beside ends in twenty applications along the spine with the patient prone.

Ask, before that step, in every older patient and in every patient with kidney disease: have you been told your bones are thin? have you broken a bone from a small fall? have you taken steroid tablets for a long time? If any answer is yes, there is no forceful pressure on that spine and no leverage, whatever the card says — and the conversation to have is with your teacher about what to give instead, not a quiet decision to press a little more gently.

The therapy has told you, in its own words, that such a bone cannot bear even a little pressure.

What the 1,25 DCC formula is used for

Table 29 — In brief: the uses of the 1,25 DCC formula

To increase the quantity of calcium in the blood	Osteoporosis — the becoming hollow of bone
If there is bleeding in excessive quantity in the menses	Mental slowness (mand buddhi) and hypothyroidism
Those who get cramps at the time of sleeping — this can often happen in high BP patients	To improve the stomach and the digestive system — especially if there is pain in both Liv° and Mu°, and along with indigestion there is also pain in the waist or in the calves; then this formula is very beneficial indeed

The last entry is the one you will use most often, and it is worth reading twice because it names a combination rather than a disease: pain at both kidney points, indigestion, and aching in the waist or the calves. That is a picture, not a diagnosis, and it is the kind of thing a patient describes in one breath while apologising for mentioning three things at once.

Pure 1,25 DCC, and where it leads

As has been written above, Pure 1,25 DCC is a very powerful and strong treatment. So it is used very little indeed. But there is one formula built directly out of it.

Table 30 — Card: Pure Genes formula Supine Side-lying 6 sec

Written	(7) Liv (4) Para (7) Liv° (7) Mu° (8) Lt Parkhoo
What it is	Pure 1,25 DCC with vitamin B₁₂ mixed into it. If vitamin B₁₂ is mixed into Pure 1,25 DCC, then its name is Pure Genes formula
Steps 1 to 4	Pure 1,25 DCC, entire and unchanged — (7) Liv, (4) Para, (7) Liv°, (7) Mu°
Step 5	(8) Lt Parkhoo — the left Parkhoo, the vitamin B₁₂ station Left . It is this that makes the formula "Genes"
What it is for	By means of this formula the disorders of the genes — genetic disorders — can be corrected
How often it is used	This formula too is not generally used, because it is very much strong, that is, effective. It is used only in genetic disorders, that is diseases connected with the genes
Where the gene family is taught whole	Vitamin and Gene Formulas, "The Missing Links" — Pure Genes, New Genes, Pure and Large Folic Black, and the WD that follows Pan inside New Genes
Points taught in	As Pure 1,25 DCC; Lt. Parkhoo — On the Side, "On the Side"

Two formulas named Pure, and both of them carry the same warning in the same words: very powerful; used very little indeed. That is a class of treatment, not two coincidences. Where the therapy calls a formula Pure, it means the pathway has been provoked without the balancing pair at the end — no Ch. Only, no Round arrow — and rule 3 of sequence tells you exactly what that costs. A formula that ends without a balance is a formula that leaves the patient somewhere. Give the ordinary form unless you have been taught otherwise by somebody who knows why.

FROM AYURVEDA AND YOGA

The gond laddu, and what the village already knew

Edible gum — gond — gives greater strength to the bones. It is for this very reason that in the villages women are fed the laddu of gond after delivery, so that the bones of both the child and the mother remain strong and healthy.

Nobody arrived at that by measuring anything. What the households had was an observation carried down through grandmothers: a woman who has just given birth has been drawn on heavily, the child has taken what it needed from her, and this is the moment at which her bones must be fed. So a sweet made of gum, ghee and nuts is put into her hands on the day she comes home, whether she wants it or not.

The old practices that survive are usually the ones that were about something. Beside a formula built for the absorption of calcium, the gond laddu is not a quaint aside — it is the same concern, arrived at from the kitchen instead of the clinic.

DID YOU KNOW?

The vitamin that is not a vitamin

A vitamin, by the original meaning of the word, is something the body cannot make and must therefore eat. Vitamin D fails that test twice over. The body makes it in the skin out of a cholesterol-like chemical whenever sunlight falls on it, and then converts it, in two further steps in two different organs, into a hormone that travels in the blood and switches genes on in distant cells.

It got its name because it was discovered during the hunt for the missing food factors, and by the time anyone understood what it really was the name had stuck.

So a therapy that treats it as a chain of organs to be provoked rather than as a substance to be swallowed is treating it as what it is: a hormone with a three-organ production line, and a fourth organ — the skin — at the head of it.

FROM AYURVEDA AND YOGA

The old instruction to stand in the early sun

Classical Indian daily routine — dinacharyā, the ordering of a day — puts the taking of sunlight early, while it is still gentle, and treats it as a thing to be done rather than a thing that happens. The morning salutation to the sun, performed at sunrise, presents the whole length of the back to the light repeatedly as the body folds and unfolds.

Nobody in that tradition knew about a chemical lying under the skin waiting for ultraviolet light. What they had noticed was simpler and, it turns out, sufficient: people who are out in the early sun have better bones and better spirits than people who are not, and it is the early sun rather than the fierce midday sun that agrees with a body.

Ten to fifteen minutes, on the beads of the spine, before the day gets hot. It is the cheapest instruction in this wiki and one of the few a patient can begin on the way home.

DID YOU KNOW?

The shape of a stool is a better measure than the number of times

Ask a hundred people whether their bowels are regular and you will get a hundred opinions. Ask them what the stool looked like and you will get something much closer to a measurement — because the form of a stool tracks, quite faithfully, how long it has spent travelling through the bowel. Hard pellets have been a long time on the road; a thin one has hardly stopped.

Hospitals use a picture chart of seven shapes for exactly this reason, and they use it because a picture crosses language and embarrassment in a way that a question does not.

The comparisons in this article — banana, goat's pellet, cow dung — do the same work, and they do it in vocabulary that every household in India already owns. Whatever one concludes about acid and alkali, the sign itself is real, and this is the right way to ask for it.

The Gas 'I' ladder, and what a dose can decide

One point, four counts — and nine seconds turns (6) into (9)

This last section of the article is a different kind of teaching, and it belongs here rather than anywhere else because it is the plainest demonstration in the wiki of the thing the two kingdoms have been telling you all along: the same point, at two different counts, is two different treatments — and they can pull in opposite directions.

In our intestines there are 100 million — that is, ten crore — neurons, which are called enteric neurons, that is the neurons of the intestines. And these neurons too make, in smaller quantity, the very same chemicals that are made in larger quantity in the brain. In this therapy it has been seen that from the Gas 'I' point the intestines can be stimulated.

A CASE FROM PRACTICE

The Parkinson's patient whose hand stopped trembling

Recorded in the therapy's own account. The patient's name was not recorded.

Name not recorded · an adult · came with Parkinson's disease, and a good deal of pain at the Gas 'I' point

What was found. He had a good deal of pain at Gas 'I' — the intestine variant of the Gas point, down the calves. Nothing about the tenderness was aimed at his disease; it was simply the finding, and the finding is what is treated.

What was given. The Gas 'I' treatment, on the strength of that tenderness. When (12) Gas 'I' was given, it was seen that that patient's trembling of the hand had become very much less.

The question that was asked afterwards. From physiology it is known that Parkinson's disease comes from a deficiency of the chemical named dopamine. So the thought came: could it not be that from (12) Gas 'I' dopamine is being made? Otherwise how did benefit reach the Parkinson's patient from that treatment?

What was then looked up. Regarding dopamine it was found, in the medical dictionary kept by him, that it is such a chemical as brings different effects in the body in different quantities. That single sentence is the hinge of everything that follows in this section. A chemical whose effect changes with its quantity implies a treatment whose effect changes with its count — and from that implication a whole ladder was built and then tested on patients.

What this case teaches

The point was chosen by the tenderness, not by the diagnosis. Gas 'I' hurt; Gas 'I' was given; the tremor eased. The reasoning about dopamine came afterwards, and the account says so in that order.

An unexpected result is a question, not a conclusion. The response was to open a book and ask which chemical could have done it — the same response as in the eye case of Setting the Stomach, and it is the habit that produced most of .

A chemical that behaves differently at different doses is a warning as much as an opportunity. Everything in the rest of this section, including its warning, follows from that one line.

And what a therapist owes such a patient: the medicines for Parkinson's disease are not stopped or reduced because a tremor is better on the mat. They are changed by the doctor who prescribed them.

Key teaching

Dopamine, in the therapy's own account

Dopamine is a chemical which is made in the part of the brain named the basal ganglia. Besides this it is also made in the adrenal medulla.

After being made, it is changed into norepinephrine according to the body's need.

It is made in the body from the exchange of the tyrosine amino acid. The work of changing one thing into another in the body is called metabolism, that is cayāpacaya. Tyrosine amino acid is found in the protein of milk named casein. So for it to be made properly, milk should be digested properly; and for the metabolism of tyrosine, vitamin C and folic acid are needed. All this will happen only when the digestive system works properly.

One chief work of dopamine is to carry messages from the brain to certain other parts. That is why it is called a neuro-transmitter. Its property is to carry the message of stopping the unwanted movements of the limbs — which is why it is called an inhibitory neuro-transmitter, that is, a stopping neuro-transmitter.

Notice where that paragraph ends up. Tyrosine comes from the protein of milk; the protein of milk must be digested; and the metabolism of tyrosine needs vitamin C and folic acid, which must be absorbed. A article that began at the kidneys has arrived back at the stomach, which is where Setting the Stomach said every article of this Part would end up.

Now the table the ladder was inferred from. It describes what the drug dopamine does when it is put into a patient's blood in a hospital, and it is given here because it is the reasoning the therapy used — nothing whatever is administered in this treatment.

Table 31 — The effect of the drug dopamine on the body

The quantity of the drug *	Its effect on the body
2 to 5 µgm per minute	Widens the internal diameter of the arteries of the kidney and the intestines. If the flow of blood inside the kidneys increases, the systolic BP will fall
5 to 15 µgm per minute	The contractile power of the heart will increase; blood will come out in greater quantity and with greater speed, from which the BP will rise
More than 15 µgm per minute	In this quantity it stimulates the α-adrenergic receptors, from which all the blood vessels of the body contract. This is given to patients of Parkinson's disease, and to those who have extremely low BP because of shock

* The total quantity of the drug is calculated according to the weight of the patient and is put into the blood. Whatever the patient's weight may be, the drug is to be put up for that many minutes.

Shock is what it is called when, from any cause whatever, the quantity of blood reaching the heart from the venous blood, that is from the veins, becomes so little that the tissues do not get sufficient oxygen for their normal working. (A microgram, µgm, is the ten-lakhth part of one gram.)

Read down the middle column and the thing that matters jumps out. The same chemical lowers the blood pressure at a small dose and raises it at a larger one. Not works less at the small dose — works the other way. That is the fact the ladder was built on.

Key teaching

How the ladder was inferred, step by step

The inference.

When a Parkinson's patient is benefiting from (12) Gas 'I', then from (6) Gas 'I' less dopamine should be made, which might perhaps reduce high BP.

The test. From that inference, when (6) Gas 'I' was given to a patient of high BP, that person's systolic BP came down. From then on, for many years, (6) Gas 'I' is given to high BP patients to reduce systolic BP, from which they get great benefit — and the inference drawn is that this treatment is working like the dopamine dosage of 2–5 µgm/kg/min.

The next thought, and what happened to it. After this the thought came that when (6) Gas 'I' reduces high BP, then from (9) Gas 'I' perhaps more dopamine will be made, from which BP will rise — which we could use in the treatment of low BP. But patients of low BP come only occasionally, so we could not test this on many patients.

That last sentence is left exactly as it stands. A prediction was made, the patients to test it on did not come in sufficient numbers, and the therapy says so rather than filling the gap.

The Gas 'I' ladder — where the dose decides the effect. Four counts of one point read down as a ladder, each rung carrying what it is held to do; beside it the dopamine dose table the ladder was inferred from, beneath it the 2010 change by which the motion chooses the count, and across the foot the warning that decides which count you actually gave.

All four are the same point, in the same position, with the patient supine and both calves under the soles, knee to heel. What separates them is a number — and the number decides whether you have given a treatment for a tremor, a treatment that may raise the blood pressure, a treatment that lowers it, or a treatment for the intestine. There is nothing else in the wiki where so much rides on the count alone, which is why what follows is written as a warning rather than as a note. (Figure 28.6)

TAKE CARE

The chief warning for the therapist while giving the Gas 'I' treatment

The effect of the above treatments, as written, is based on this: that while giving Gas 'I', pressure of six seconds only is given at every point.

If (6) Gas 'I' is to be given to a high BP patient, then while giving the treatment the therapist should not talk with anybody, and should see that at every place the pressure does not exceed six seconds.

If, in place of six seconds, a pressure of nine seconds was given at every place, then (6) Gas 'I' can become (9) Gas 'I' — from which the patient's BP can rise further. Let this be kept in mind.

Read that arithmetic once more, because it is unlike anything else in this wiki. Everywhere else, a hold that runs long is a slightly larger dose of the same treatment. Here, six applications held for nine seconds is not (6) Gas 'I' given generously — it is (9) Gas 'I', which is the rung of the ladder the therapy says may push the blood pressure up, in a patient you were treating to bring it down.

And note what the instruction actually forbids: talking. Not haste, not carelessness — conversation, which is the commonest way in the world for a six-second count to become a nine-second one without anybody noticing. A therapist who cannot count and talk at the same time should not talk.

One change made since 2010

Since 2010, while giving the UDF formula, the following changes are to be made in the Ajay Normal formula according to the motion. It is the same principle as the four versions of the 1,25 DCC formula — the stool chooses the count — and it is placed here rather than in Clearing the Ash because the element that changes is a rung of the ladder you have just learned.

Table 33 — The 2010 modification of the Ajay Normal formula inside UDF, by the patient's motion

The patient's motion	The Gas 'I' element to give
Normal motion	(4) Gas 'I' – 3 points
Constipation, or hard motion	(6) Gas 'I' – 3 points
Loose motion	(1) Gas 'I' – 6 points

Three notes on that small table, and then the article turns to choosing.

It belongs to the UDF formula. The Ajay Normal formula is the tail of every UDF sequence — at the end of all UDF formulas, after the Fast treatment, the Mild Ajay Normal formula is to be given — and this modification governs the Gas 'I' element inside that tail. The whole family, generation by generation, is Clearing the Ash, "Clearing the Ash".

Read the counts against the ladder. Constipation gets six; loose motion gets one, at six stations. The same numbers you have just met at the Gas 'I' point, chosen by the same kind of finding as everything else in this article — what the stool looks like this week.

And a note on where the rest of the stomach work lives. Some other formulas for setting the stomach right — Chole, Vater, New Gal and the rest of the later generation — are taught in Setting the Stomach, "Setting the Stomach", and the two articles are meant to be used together. A patient whose Gas point is tender and whose food comes through undigested may need work from both.

DID YOU KNOW?

The second brain, and why it is not a figure of speech

The gut carries its own nervous system, and it is not a small one: something on the order of a hundred million nerve cells woven through the wall of the intestine, more than there are in the spinal cord. It can run a wave of movement along a length of bowel entirely on its own, with the connection to the brain cut.

And it makes, in its own smaller quantities, several of the very chemicals the brain makes — which is why a person's gut and a person's mood so often move together, and why the old languages put fear in the belly rather than in the head.

This is the anatomy behind a article that treats the intestine as a place where chemistry is made rather than merely as a tube. The stomach and the brain have never been as far apart as the diagrams make them look.

Choosing between them

The chapter read backwards, from the finding to the formula

Thirteen formulas and variants, one system, and a patient in front of you. The question is never which is the strongest acid formula — it is which kingdom is this patient in today, and has anything been left undone that must come first. The table below is the article read backwards, from the finding to the formula. (Figure 28.7)

Table 34 — From the finding to the formula

What you have found	The formula it points to	The thing to check before you give it
More pain at Mu°, none or very little at Liv°; left ring finger; left-sided complaints; the dryness picture; degeneration	ATF form (a) — (8) Pan (1) Gal (3) Mu° (1) acid (4) Lt. Ch. Only (6) Adr	No Mu°⁺⁺⁺, no ATF. And re-examine every single day

A patient who has had an adverse effect from any treatment of ours — as at Chandigarh	One treatment of NAN or FAN — Setting the Stomach	Examine again from the beginning, and write down what happened

Acid or alkali — choosing the formula. The article's whole decision on one sheet: two lanes divided by a ruled line — Mu° acidosis on the left, Liv° alkalosis on the right — and beneath them the 1,25 DCC calcium formula laid out as a four-organ pathway with the four versions the stool chooses.

At a glance

Two figures, one poster and one plate — what to study before the test

WHAT TO CARRY AWAY

Two families, two points, two sides. Acidosis — from a deficiency of water — shows at Mu°, the left kidney, and is corrected by left-sided work; alkalosis — from an increase of water — shows at Liv°, the right kidney, and is corrected by right-sided work. Acidosis gives many troubles that are easy to set right; alkalosis gives fewer that do not get right easily.

The gate on the acid formula is absolute in its own terms. If there is no pain in Mu°⁺⁺⁺, ATF is not to be given. Only where there is more pain at Mu° and no pain at Liv°, or very little indeed, is it used at all.

A correct treatment repeated onto a corrected body is a correction in the wrong direction. That is the whole lesson of Chandigarh: the acid fell too far, which is the same as the alkali rising, and one chief symptom of alkali rising is an increase of pain in the body. The tender point had moved from Mu° to Liv° overnight. One treatment of NAN set it right.

ATF has two forms sharing four steps. (8) Pan (1) Gal (3) Mu° (1) acid, then either (4) Lt. Ch. Only (6) Adr — the default, from which most people obtain more benefit — or (4) Thymus+Chest, chosen by injury · viral or bacterial infection · pimples on the face or boils in the body · recently appeared itching, allergy or skin disease.

Thymus and Thymus Chest are not given to diabetic patients — because diabetes is held to be an auto-immune disorder in which the thymus is hyper — but it is not the case that every diabetic patient will be harmed by Thymus, and a diabetic who reports that Adr did not suit him ought to be given Thymus or Thymus Chest. In a diabetic patient, Loveleen Sulta ulta given along with ATF gives further benefit.

For pimples, Adr is not given — they occur from viral infection — and the formula is form (b) with (3) Swt added to provoke the sweat glands.

Light before heavy. A gland which is already spoiled should first be provoked less, so that it slowly begins to work. The old heavy ATF gave (3) Gal (7) Mu° (3) acid; the light form gives (1), (3), (1), and the chest step acquired a side. The light treatment may be given to all patients and especially in severe or chronic disease — cancer, hepatitis, cirrhosis, rheumatoid arthritis. Two or three light treatments in place of one heavy one.

The coma formula teaches by what it leaves out. (8) Pan (1) Gal (2) acid (4) Lt. Ch. Only, given twice, with Mu° deliberately omitted because both kidneys were spoiled and the creatinine greatly raised — and the honest closing line, in fact this patient had gone into coma from some other cause.

Calcium in the wrong place needs both Thymus and Adrenal — as two orders, never merged. I (8) Pan (3) Gal (7) Liv (4) acid (4) Thymus+Chest · II (8) Pan (3) Gal (7) Liv (4) Mu° (3) acid (10) Adr. Some Parkinson's patients, CP children with hard constipation, and those whose muscles have stiffened with age obtained benefit.

ALTF carries a prerequisite unlike anything else in the formulary. Even when there is pain in Liv° we should not give ALTF first. We should first give the UDF formula — because the alkali that appears raised may be normal, and only look raised because the stomach's acid has fallen. The tell is Gas tenderness and undigested food in the stool.

ALTF is given only when three things have happened: after some days of UDF the stool comes properly, the Gas pain goes, and even then there is pain at Gal, Liv, Liv°. Then (1) Gal (1) Liv – 3 points (1) Rt.Ov (1) Liv° (2) Rt. Ch. Only × 3 trts. — and no Pan at its head.

The two reduced forms are the therapy's discipline made visible. No Liv° pain, drop Liv°. No Rt. Ov. pain either, drop that too. If any organ has no need, then it should not be provoked. Provoke only when there is pain — otherwise not.

The 1,25 DCC formula is a pathway walked in order — sun, then (7) Liv, then (4) Para, then (7) Liv° (7) Mu°, then (8) Ch. Only (20) ↑|↓. The chest is rubbed left first, right afterwards; Left Chest Only reduces Mu° pain, Right Chest Only reduces Liv° pain; and the chest with the spinal arrow together maintain the balance of acid and alkali. Half an hour in the sun daily, and — because the calcium binding protein takes 48 hours — leave a day in between if it is to be given a second time.

In osteoporosis, (4) Para alone is refused; the full 1,25 DCC formula is the mandatory whole. Given separately by itself it lifts calcium from the bone into the blood, which is exactly why it is the point for bone grown at an unwanted place — and exactly the wrong thing for a hollow one. And if the kidneys are spoiled, 1,25 DCC will not be made, and such bones cannot bear even a little pressure.

The stool chooses the version. Banana-like → the standard formula. Goat-like pellets with constipation → (4) Ch. Only with (20) ↑|↓. Cow-dung-like → Ulta 1,25 DCC, Mu° before Liv° and the arrow before the chest, underlined. Three or four thin motions a day → the reversed order with (10) ↑|↓ and (8) Ch. Only, the balance broken on purpose and the reason written beside it.

Gas 'I' is one point and four treatments. (12) for Parkinson's · (9) — perhaps BP will rise; this is to be tested on more patients · (6) to bring systolic BP down · (3), for which nowadays (1) Gas 'I' – 6 points is given instead, which is more beneficial. And the warning that decides which of them you actually gave: six seconds only, and do not talk while giving it — nine seconds at every place turns (6) into (9), from which the patient's BP can rise further.

Questions students ask

1. I am nineteen and new to the formulary. Mu° is tender at two plus and Liv° at one plus. Do I give ATF? Read the rule as it is written and you will answer your own question: ATF is used when there is more pain in Mu° and there is no pain in Liv° or very little indeed — and the chart states it with a grade, Mu°⁺⁺⁺. Two plus against one plus is not a clear picture; it is a picture in the middle. Do the digestive work of Setting the Stomach, write both grades down, and look again tomorrow. A therapist who can say not today is worth two who always have something to give.

2. I am a physician. What exactly is being asserted about acid and alkali here? Three separable things, and they should be kept apart. An observation: tenderness at two named sites beside the navel sorts patients into two clinical patterns — dry against wet, tight against loose, scanty against copious — that hang together and change from day to day. A set of sequences which, given to one pattern and not the other, are reported to change the pattern, sometimes within a session. And a naming convention, in which those two patterns are called acidosis and alkalosis. The first two are what you can examine at the mat. The third is the therapy's own vocabulary, and it is not the arterial blood gas on your ward. Keep the sign; be careful what you call it in a letter to a hospital.

3. Why does ALTF have no Pan at the start when everything else in this article does? Because the formula was built to reduce the pains of the organs of the right side — Gal, Liv, Liv°, Rt. Ov. — and Pan is the both-thighs opening of the digestive family. The absence is part of the formula, and it is one of the things that tells you ALTF is not simply ATF mirrored. Copy a formula's absences as carefully as its numbers.

4. I am a housewife treating my family. My husband's Liv° hurts and he has loose motions. May I just give ALTF? It is only six or eight presses. Its lightness is exactly the trap. No — not first. Check his Gas point and ask him whether anything comes out in the stool looking as it went in: tomato seeds, spinach leaves, whole chana. If the answer is yes, his alkali may not be raised at all; it may only look raised because his stomach is not making its acid, and what he needs is the UDF work first. Give ALTF only if, after some days, the stool comes properly, the Gas pain has gone, and the right-side points still hurt.

5. Both the calcium-deposit orders are for the same patients. May I give one in the morning and the other in the evening, since he needs both Thymus and Adrenal? No. Two complete orders are written, and nowhere is there an instruction to combine them or to give both in a day. Where the material gives you two complete sequences and no instruction to combine them, they are choices. Version II ends at ten adrenal applications — the heaviest in the article — and the patients named for these orders are stiff, elderly or children with CP. Give one, write down which, and reconsider next time with the finding in front of you.

6. I work in a village and have no laboratory. The 1,25 DCC section is full of numbers — 9 to 11 mg/dl, pH 7.32, creatinine. Am I supposed to have those? No. You are supposed to know that they exist, so that you can say to a family: there is a blood test that would settle this, and it is worth doing. A therapist who can name the test that would answer a question is not less of a therapist for not owning the machine — he is more useful than one who has never heard of it. What you must have is the referral and the habit of using it.

7. What actually changed between the heavy and the light treatment? It looks like the same formula. It is the same formula. The same six steps in the same order, with the opening and both endings untouched. Three counts came down — Gal from three to one, Mu° from seven to three, acid from three to one — and one step acquired a side, Ch. Only becoming Lt. Ch. Only. The reduction fell precisely on the steps aimed at the acid itself. The reason is one sentence: a gland which is already spoiled should first be provoked less, so that it slowly begins to work.

8. I am sixty-six and learning this for my own household. Why is the sun in a formula? Because the first step of the chain the formula follows happens in your skin, not in your hands. A chemical lying under the skin is changed by the sun's rays into the raw form of vitamin D; the liver makes the next form; the parathyroid gland adds its hormone; and only then do the kidneys make the finished thing that lets calcium cross the wall of your intestine. The formula provokes the last three organs. The sun does the first step and nothing else can do it for you — ten to fifteen minutes of the gentle morning sun on the beads of the spine, and half an hour daily while the treatment is running.

9. The Gas 'I' warning says not to talk. Surely that is about concentration in general? It is about arithmetic. Six seconds at every place is what makes (6) Gas 'I' the treatment it is. Hold each place for nine seconds instead and you have not given a slightly generous (6); you have given (9) Gas 'I' — which is the rung the therapy says may raise the blood pressure, in a patient you were treating to lower it. Talking is simply the commonest way a six-second count becomes a nine-second one. If you cannot count and talk at once, do not talk.

10. Every article tells me to re-examine daily. Is that not excessive for a patient who is clearly doing well? It is written for exactly that patient. The woman at Chandigarh was doing clearly well — she said so herself, and the queue had heard her say it. The treatment that had corrected her acid on Monday corrected it again on Tuesday, past the middle and into the opposite kingdom, and she wept from pain she had not arrived with. The patient who is doing well is the patient whose body has changed most since you last examined it.

11. If (4) Para lifts calcium out of the bone, how can the same point be part of the formula for osteoporosis? Because a point in a formula is not the point alone. Given separately by itself it lifts calcium from the bone into the blood, and that is the action wanted where bone has grown at an unwanted place. Inside the 1,25 DCC formula it maintains the calcium of the blood by means of PTH — the hormone whose presence the kidneys require before they can make 1,25 DCC at all — with Liv ahead of it and the two kidney points behind it. The bar is written against the word separately, and a rule about how a thing is delivered rather than whether it is delivered is a more sophisticated rule than it looks.

12. (9) Gas 'I' is written with "perhaps" and "this is to be tested". Am I allowed to use it? Your duty at such a sentence is neither to act on it nor to ignore it. It marks a place where a reason has been thought out and the result has not yet been seen, and it is printed among settled instructions precisely so that nobody mistakes one kind of sentence for the other. The therapy says plainly why it could not settle the question — patients of low BP come only occasionally. Know it is there; know what would settle it; and if you are ever one of the people who tries it, write down what happened, including the times nothing happened.

Questions patients ask

1. "You are pressing my left thigh and my left side for a problem in my bones. What has one to do with the other?" The place I press is not the place that is unwell — it is the place from which that organ can be reached. In this therapy, pressure on the left side of the body relieves what is happening on the right of the navel and the other way about, and the two points beside your navel that I check first stand for your two kidneys. Your kidneys are part of how your body keeps its calcium. I am not pressing your bones. I am working on the road that supplies them.

2. "Last week you gave me one treatment and today you have given me a different one. Have you changed your mind about my illness?" No — I have changed it about your body, which is not the same thing. This therapy treats the condition a person is in on the day, and that condition genuinely does move. Last week one point beside your navel was painful; today it is quiet and another is tender. If I gave you last week's treatment today I would be treating the person you were, and there is a well-known case in this work of a woman who was harmed by exactly that kindness.

3. "My blood test says my calcium is normal. Why are you treating me for calcium?" Good — and that report matters; I am glad you brought it. What a normal calcium tells us is that the level in your blood is being held where it should be. It does not tell us what it is costing your body to hold it there, and it does not tell us how well the calcium in your food is getting across the wall of your intestine. What I am going by is the tenderness I found on you, which you did not know was there, and what happens to your symptoms over the next few weeks. If anything changes in your picture, I will send you back for another opinion — and please keep taking whatever your doctor has given you.

4. "I have diabetes. Somebody said this treatment can bring the sugar down. Should I reduce my medicine?" Please do not, and please do not let anyone but your own doctor change it. It is true that on some patients this work has been followed by the sugar coming down, and that is a good thing — but it is exactly why your readings matter more now, not less. Keep taking what you have been prescribed, keep checking, and keep something sweet in your pocket. Take your readings to your doctor and let him decide whether a dose should change. A therapist who tells you to cut your medicine is telling you something he has no way of knowing.

5. "I have been told my bones are thin. My neighbour got a treatment for her bone spur and says it is very good. Can I have the same?" No, and I am glad you asked before somebody gave it to you. There is a point in this work which, given on its own, draws calcium out of the bones and into the blood. For your neighbour, whose trouble is a bone growing where it should not, that is precisely what is wanted. For you it is the opposite of what is wanted. What you are given is the whole formula, in which that same point does a different job because of what stands before and after it — and I will also be careful about how much pressure goes anywhere near your spine.

6. "Why are you asking me about my stool every time I come? It is embarrassing." I know, and I am sorry — but it is the most useful question I have. The shape of it tells me how long your food has spent travelling through you, which is something no report will tell me and you can tell me in three words. It decides which version of your treatment I give today: one for a stool like a banana, another for hard little pieces, another for a soft one. If it helps, you need only tell me which of those it is like.

7. "You are sending me for a scan, but you also say the treatment will help. Which is it?" Both, and they are not in competition. The scan answers a question I cannot answer with my hands — what is this lump, exactly — and that question has a deadline. The treatment I give works on how your body is functioning, and it can run alongside anything. What I will not do is let this work become the reason a question goes unanswered for six months. Go for the scan, come back with it, and we will carry on.

8. "Is my acid high, then? Should I stop eating sour things?" The word acid here is not the acid in your stomach and it is not something measured in a lab report. It is the name this therapy gives to a whole pattern — dry skin, hard stool, a blocked nose, a headache at the temples, tenderness at a particular spot beside your navel — that tends to travel together. It is a direction, not a reading. The rules about food during treatment are a separate matter and I will give them to you in writing. See also → Food as Medicine, "Food as Medicine".
