I was checking out the Law of One sessions (re-transcribed from the original tapes) here: http://wiki.lawofone.info/index.php and found the following interesting quotes, which confirm some of what we've been discovering about health and detox. In short, the mind and body are inextricably linked. Dysfunction in one has a deleterious effect on the other. And these weaknesses are portals of attack and can get aggravated when one's physical and/or psychic defenses are down.
So the releasing of physical toxins is part of spiritual initiation.
I checked the annotations in book 5 of the sessions, and Carla mentions that she started feeling a lot better after having a severely ulcerated portion of her colon removed. She also followed the diet Ra recommended: "well-cooked meats, veggies and fruits, sugars and fats ... not ... whole grains, nuts, berries, uncooked fruits and vegetables." Interestingly, Ra didn't recommend stopping to eat all sugars (they said that "the chemistry of [Carla's] body is such that the sugar is being used by blood enzymes as would carbohydrates in a less distorted ... physical vehicle."). It looks like they offered some good advice, but Carla really would have benefited at the time from all the research that's coming out now, as summarized in Dr. Baker's book!
Questioner: ... What would the instrument do to make the marginal condition much better?
Ra: I am Ra. The instrument is proceeding through a portion of the incarnational experience during which the potential for mortal distortion of the left renal system is great. Less important, but adding to the marginality of distortion towards viability, are severe allergic reactions and the energizing of this and other distortions towards weakness/strength. The mental/emotional complex is engaged in what may best be termed inappropriate compassion.
Questioner: Would Ra please recommend the steps we should take to alleviate or reverse the conditions of which you just spoke?
Ra: I am Ra. We can do this. The renal distortions are subject to affirmations. The entity, at present, beginning what may be called initiation, is releasing toxins and, therefore, larger amounts of liquid to aid in the dilution of these toxins is helpful. The allergies are already being largely controlled by affirmation and the near-constant aid of the healer known as Bob. Further aid may be achieved by the relocation of dwelling and future vigilance against humidity exceeding the healthful amount in the atmosphere breathed.
So the releasing of physical toxins is part of spiritual initiation.
Questioner: I’m going to come back to a couple of points here, but I have to get in a question here about myself. It’d seem to be critical at this point. Can Ra tell me what is physically wrong with me, and what’s causing it, and what I could do to alleviate it?
Ra: I am Ra. The questioner is one also in the midst of further initiation. During this space/time the possibility for mental/emotional distortion approaching that which causes the entity to become dysfunctional is markéd. Further, the yellow-ray, chemical vehicle of the questioner is aging and has more difficulty in the absorption of needed minerals such as iron and other substances such as papain, potassium, and calcium.
And toxic metal detoxification is a must.
At the same time the body of yellow-ray begins to have more difficulty eliminating trace elements such as aluminum. The energizing effect has occurred in the colon of the questioner and the distortions in that area are increasingly substantial. Lastly, there is a small area of infection in the mouth of the questioner which needs attention.
