Life Style Video Interview Transcript
I have been incredibly lucky in having discovered something that is changing the world’s ideology. An outlook on health. But what an incredible outcome. All those earth’s blessings we have all been seeking. All of them deepen the breath. Food, protein, etc. deepens the breath. Coffee, tea, tobacco, alcohol, drugs. All of these deepen the breath. In other words, human beings seem quite intent on concentrating on all the things that deepen their breathing. And the principles which have been believed to be correct, to breathe deeply, to have more rest and relaxation, spending more time in bed, either lying or sleeping, with such emphasis on more recreation and less physical work, are now turning out to be wrong in their concepts and in fact, are totally wrong principles.
If life and civilisation are to survive, this is how it now turns out to be. Because the deep breathing removes carbon dioxide, causing spasms of the blood vessels, the bronchae, etc. making our organisms starve of oxygen and leading to their degeneration. And the deeper we breathe, the less intelligent we become. Eventually the cortex, the more primitive part of our brain, takes over, turning a human being from an intelligent being into a primeval creature.
This is a totally mindless philosophy of thinking and of living. We have to adopt new ways of thinking, new ways of living, by breathing less, eating less, working more physically and living a much healthier lifestyle. This represents a true restructuring of our lifestyle. A true Perestroyka.
We need to embark on this today.
