Many are searching.  We search for the secret to happiness, for the way of the peaceful pilgrim, for the known and unknown secrets to self progress.  Understanding is just the first baby step.

Over time this must have an effect on the self and the world.  So this is how one helps the Beloved to establish a perfect world of perfect beings living in perfect nature.  By putting this “simple act” of staying merged in the Beloved’s Love, the perfect reward is received again and again, again…

He also says that  the best way to remove heavy metals is to eat the following 5 foods every day for these foods have a synergistic action when they are eaten within 24 hours of each other.

The 5 foods are:
