From Correcting the Two Kingdoms

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.

Table 16 — Card: Alkali Treatment Formula (ALTF), the chief form Supine 6 sec × 3

Written	(1) Gal (1) Liv – 3 points (1) Rt.Ov (1) Liv° (2) Rt. Ch. Only × 3 trt.
Family	Built from the therapy's own logic. Named for what it was seen to do — after this treatment the raised blood pressure begins to come down, from which we understand that the alkali is reduced
Position	Supine throughout Supine
What is absent from the opening	No Pan. ALTF is the one formula in this article that does not open with the pancreatic step. The absence is part of the formula
Step 1	(1) Gal — therapist's right sole on the patient's left thigh, hip crease → knee Left
Step 2	(1) Liv – 3 points — left arm + left thigh, three paired stations in one pass Left
Step 3	(1) Rt. Ov. — the right ovary point Right
Step 4	(1) Liv° — the right-kidney code beside the navel Right . The diagnostic point of alkalosis, now treated
Step 5	(2) Rt. Ch. Only — the right chest only Right . The mirror of the Lt. Ch. Only of ATF
The rounds	× 3 treatments — given once or twice a day, with a gap of ninety seconds in between each treatment. Table 8, How a Formula Is Built
Given only after	The UDF formula — see the gate above ▲ Take care
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.

Table 17 — Card: ALTF, reduced form 1 — where there is no pain at Liv° Supine 6 sec × 3

Written	(1) Gal (1) Liv – 3 points (1) Rt.Ov (2) Rt. Ch. Only × 3 treatments
Given when	There is pain in Gal, Liv and so on, but there is no pain in Liv° — then this treatment is enough
What changed	(1) Liv° is omitted. Everything else is unaltered, including the rounds and the rest

Table 18 — Card: ALTF, reduced form 2 — where there is no pain at Liv° and none at Rt. Ov. Supine 6 sec × 3

Written	(1) Gal (1) Liv – 3 points (2) Rt. Ch. Only × 3 treatments
Given when	There is no pain in Rt. Ov. either
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

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.
