PREFACE
This is your introduction to a natural approach to mental health that encourages self-reliance, ethical and moral behavior, assists the person to handle his own problems, and monitor his own conscience, health and behavior through his postulates.
This is done through supervised one-on-one Soul Guidance Counseling with alternatives of private Rehab Meditation so that you may have unlimited progress.
The welfare of the individual, our society and culture is dependent upon effective knowledge. For the past century we have had some advances in knowledge about man and his potentials but this information has been suppressed by the news media that is financed and controlled by the drug industry and psychiatry, as part of a conspiracy that had its roots in the late 1800s, becoming more active in the 1930s.
They have taught you that religion is a superstition, the soul of man is a delusion and that we are nothing but one step above a chimpanzee on the evolutionary scale.
The conspiracy of psychiatry is to gain prominence in the world and eventually control and dominate the lives of every human being. The National Education Association (NEA), whose goals are socialism, joined the conspiracy.
A privately stated goal was the eradication of the belief in morals of right and wrong, the destruction of religion, education, law (the courts) and the field of medicine. This also included the destruction of the family, the drugging of everyone from cradle to grave, etc;
Their formation of the World Federation for Mental Health (WFMH) and membership in the World Health Organization (WHO) has been successful in spreading their influence worldwide.
Professor Emeritus Thomas Szasz, a lifelong critic of psychiatry has reported that we have begun entering "The Therapeutic State". where mental health care is enforced.
There is much more, but this information was presented in the appendix of the first edition of this book published in 2004, and was removed, revised and expanded into another book entitled – The Conspiracy, Fraud, Quackery and Death of Psychiatry © 2005.
That was yesterday. The death of psychiatry is imminent if you will learn more about it and help make it happen!
Today you are invited to learn the truth about your amazing mind, about your nature as a spiritual being (a soul), your potentials for a healthier, happier and rewarding life and how to attain it.
The information in this book is based on clinical studies, research and logic and is workable and valuable to the extent that it is used exactly as presented.
Unlike the practices of psychiatry and psychotherapy that are ineffective in the treatment of "mental illnesses" and "mental disorders" we are not dealing with the "treatment" or "cure" of any "mental illness" or "disorder" or any physical sickness.
The emphasis in this book is effective knowledge that you may use every day in your life to handle your stresses, emotional upsets and problems; to become the person you have wanted to be. In short, it’s placing the responsibility where it belongs, on you.
Is it possible to destroy a religion? Yes, psychiatry believes it has attacked religion successfully. The great number of myths presented as factual found in Christian writings had been under attack for centuries. Myths are unnecessary in our modern age and many biblical scholars testify to that through their books, and prefer truth as stable and indestructible. Should antiquity and ignorance rule over knowledge and rational thinking?
Ask any minister or priest to discuss with his congregation the infamous Inquisition, the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Nag Hammadi, or Catholic history and its influence upon Christian theology and you will be met with a stonewall of silence and cover-up! We will cover that later.
To preserve Christianity and to de-emphasize mythology is to bring to everyone, regardless of race, creed or religion – the essence of what Jesus Christ taught that is essential for an understanding of one’s own spiritual growth.
Jesus declared, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free." Read chapter 18 and get a good summation from biblical scholars of the Gnostic religion of Jesus Christ that could survive free of mythology, ritual and ceremony. Buddhism has done it; Christianity can do it too!
My ambition is not to destroy Christianity, but to give it strength to survive destruction from psychiatry, and the Papacy and hierarchy of the Christian religion that survives only through preserving mythology and avoiding obvious truth.
Understanding the true existence of the soul, its’ creation of the mind by postulates that determine one’s ethical and moral conscience as well as physiology and behavior is different from one individual to another. This puts a lie to the claim that "mental disorders" and "behavioral disorders" are "mental diseases" and due to abnormal brain chemistry!
The power of the postulate fits well into the observations of science and is used in mathematics. For our use, it may be said to be a decision, a self-evident truth that a person posts in the future for his own use.
More precisely, a postulate is a conclusion, decision or resolution made by one-self that resolves a problem of the past, decides on problems or observations of the present and sets a pattern for future behavior.
An individual unaware of the power of his postulates can haphazardly create his own hell for himself and for others in trying to undo his unusual behavior. It is simple to do this and it doesn’t require truth serums, drugs, hypnosis, shock treatment, psychosurgery, or anything so drastic.
The power of one’s own postulates as a form of self-hypnosis is the answer to understanding the modus operandi of the rehabilitative routines for Soul Guidance Counseling in chapter 7.
The message and practices found in this book are spiritually guaranteed to reveal your hidden potentials, develop them and change your life – to the degree that you read and apply its progressive and practical approach. This does not involve positive suggestion or hypnosis, but is a system devised to release a person’s natural abilities. It challenges and guides you to think, remember and find your own answers!
I trust that this book will serve as a spiritual sword into the utter complacency of the Christian orthodoxy to reform Christian practices and theology to provide with greater strength and enthusiasm the true message of Jesus.
The Soul Guidance Counseling and Rehabilitative Meditation system of G. I. Gurdjieff, were originally designed by me to be used in a religious stronghold under spiritual, moral and ethical guidance and protection. Realizing the extreme dedication to antiquity, dogma, and a religious hierarchy that some clergyman have, I have expanded the explanations so that any group, religious sect, denomination, or religious creed could adopt its practices, freely, adhering to the basic principles encompassed herein. It may also be done by one’s self, if necessary.
