VI. OTHER SUGGESTIONS FOR SUCCESS
_________________________
DEFINITION
The pull down procedure is a mental exercise in which one moves subtle energy through the body with the mind from the head to the feet. It is an ancient spiritual practice.
A MOST IMPORTANT EXERCISE
Pulling down is one of the most important things you can do for yourself. It moves subtle energy correctly through the body and helps heal most all health conditions. It also brings new, spiritual energies into the body, brings in very beneficial souls, and helps produce unusual abilities.
This procedure is also an antidote for the actions of the alien group some call the thugs, crud, rogues or satans. They move people's energy UP, using fear, terror, torture, rape, beatings, machines and more. This weakens the body and mind. All of us need to go the other way – down.
1. Sit comfortably with your back and neck straight. Uncross your legs. You can also lie down. You can do the procedure standing up, such as while walking slowly or even standing in line at a store.
2. Move your attention to a point far below your body.
3. Turn your attention so that you are facing your body.
4. Imagine a tether connected inside your body around the level of your navel.
5. Pull down hard on the tether to move subtle energy from your head to below the feet. ALWAYS PULL STRAIGHT DOWN. Never pull at an angle.
6. An alternative to the tether is to imagine a vacuum cleaner or a large, powerful magnet far below your body. Imagine it is pulling energy downward from your head to below the body.
7. To make it more powerful, imagine pulling down hard as you inhale. When you exhale, continue moving subtle energy downward. You can get a rhythm going that rapidly moves a lot of energy downward.
This is all there is to the exercise. Do not add words or other actions to it. Do the procedure as forcefully as you can.
You will know you are doing it right when it feels as though the skin on the bottom of your feet is being pulled downward or off the bottom of the feet.
To heal and develop quickly, do this procedure for two hours each day or more if you wish. Just keep doing it. It becomes easier with practice. This exercise is extremely powerful and heals all problems at a very deep level. Without it, development occurs very slowly.
It is normal for your attention to wander. When this occurs, don’t become upset. Just realize you have become distracted and bring your attention back to your feet and below, or beyond your feet if you are lying down.
END OF PROCEDURE
MORE DETAILS
Preparation. When starting a pull down session, I like to first do the basic spinal twists. This helps move the energy properly through the body. The basic twists are:
1) The basic spinal twist. Begin in the resting position - lying down flat with no pillow and legs together and knees not bent. Raise one leg straight up and move it across the other leg and down to the bed or wherever you are lying. You will often hear popping or clicking when you do this and this is fine. It is aligning and opening the spine. Now return to the resting position and do the same with the other leg.
2) Align the knees. From the resting position, bend one knee so your heel is right next to your buttocks. Now grab this ankle with one or two hands. Give the ankle a sharp pull so it hits the buttocks. Often you will hear a click or pop in the knee. Two pops are possible. Now lower the leg and repeat the procedure with the other leg.
3) Pop the toes. Bend one knee so the foot is at your buttocks. Now lift the other foot and lay it on the raised knee. Now push all the toes downward. You may hear a few clicks or pops as the toes align. Go back to the resting position and do the same with the other foot.
4) Shoulders. From the resting position, raise both arms above your head. Interlock the fingers above your head. Now pull both arms forcefully to the right. You may hear a few clicks and pops. Go back to the resting position and do the same procedure, except pull to the left.
5) Neck. Gently turn your neck to the right and then to the left. You may hear a few clicks or pops.
This way to begin the pulling down procedure aligns and loosens up the joints. It helps subtle energy flow through the joints.
The neck pull. This is another powerful maneuver that enhances the pulling down exercise. It moves energy downward much more forcefully. To learn about it, read The Neck Pull on this website.
When. Morning is excellent because the body is rested and relaxed. During the day is also very good. Doing the exercise at bedtime usually won’t work as well because you may fall asleep. Sleep is the enemy of the pulling down exercise.
Some clients do the pulling down exercise at night to fall asleep. This is fine as a sleep inducer, but it doesn’t count as time doing the exercise if you only do it for ten minutes and then fall asleep.
If you awaken at night and cannot fall asleep, you can do it then. The more the better.
Where. You will need a quiet, safe and comfortable location to sit or lie down. A comfortable chair with a straight back is very good. Some people use a recliner chair. Many prefer to lie down on a bed or sofa.
How often. Do the exercise every single day. Try not to skip days. You may do it several times daily. More is better and you cannot overdo on this procedure.
For how long. Longer sessions are best, such as an hour at a time. However, any time spent doing the exercise is excellent.
When can I stop doing it? Make it a life-long spiritual practice that is part of your life path. As you develop, you can do the procedure for less time. However, its benefits continue to accumulate so most people choose to continue it.
Body positions. Sitting. You can sit against a wall or cushion, or on a straight-backed chair. Make sure it is comfortable. You need not cross your legs Indian-style. Having them just straight down in front of you is fine.
Lying down. Many people like doing the exercise in bed or on a soft carpet on the floor. Be sure you are comfortable. Do not use a pillow under your head. Many people like covering up with a sheet or blanket.
On your side. If you are combining the pulling down procedure with the down hugging procedure with another person, both people may be on their sides. For details, read Down Hugging
Walking and other ways. You may do the exercise while walking slowly. Have your eyes about half closed so you do not walk into objects. You could walk in a shopping mall for safety, or on a straight sidewalk, perhaps with a friend. It will not work to walk on rough ground.
This is a mental exercise. Visualizing is needed and helpful. Here are some good ones you can try.
EMPTYING THE BODY AND ‘SHRIVELING’
Emptying is very good! Imagine you are a large bathtub. You have two drain plugs, one in the bottom of each foot. Pull out the plugs and let all the water run out of the bathtub (or body).
I find it helpful when starting the exercise each day, to say “Empty of self, empty of striving, I am one with God”.
Emptying the mind of thoughts is also very helpful. Do not wallow in thoughts or feelings that will arise while you are doing the exercise. Just observe them, and let them go. Watch them as one would watch a cloud in the sky pass by and disappear. It does not matter if they are amazing, horrible, scary, romantic, sexy or anything else.
THE SKIN PULL
First move your attention to below your feet. Then imagine a force pulling the skin of the bottom of your feet away from your head or downward if you are sitting. The more you do the procedure, the easier it will be to feel the pull through your whole body.
INVERT OR ‘PROLAPSE’ THE BODY
Imagine a rope or wire pulling on your head rather than pulling on your abdomen. If you are sitting, the rope pulls straight downward toward the center of the earth. If you are lying down, the rope pulls toward your feet and then out into space.
Because the rope is attached to your head, when you pull on it, it turns your entire body inside out, pulling the head, chest and abdomen toward the feet so that they end up with the head at your feet, or even below your feet.
THE TORNADO
Imagine you are sitting or lying in a very large tornado of subtle energy. It is moving downward, but also spinning to the right.
THE SILK ROBE
As you move energy downward from the head to the feet, imagine you are surrounded by a beautiful silk robe.
1. Pull the robe inwards around yourself, tightening it around your body. This is inward motion.
2. Spin the robe around yourself in a clockwise direction. Feel the silk brushing by your legs, your back, your chest, and your arms. This is a right spin.
3. Move the entire robe downward. This is down movement.
4. Relax and enjoy this feeling. This is a parasympathetic movement.
To read the reasons to use these movements, and not others, please read The 7 Principle And Development on this site.
THE BLACK HOLE
A huge black hole is below your feet. This is an unusual structure in space. It has intense gravity and pulls everything inside of it. The internet has photos of these amazing structures.
THE TRACTOR BEAM
Imagine there is a spaceship not far from the earth. The ship has a tractor beam machine and it is pulling hard on your feet.
BELLOWS
Focus your attention just below your feet. As you inhale, pull down hard from below your feet. Imagine you are opening a bellows, a device used to blow air on a fire. Opening the bellows sucks air into the bellows, which is below your feet.
As you exhale, close the bellows. This pushes the air further downward. Breathe in and out fast and you will move a lot of subtle energy downward forcefully.
THE MAGNET
A huge magnet is below your feet, pulling on you with great force.
THE BRIDE OF CHRIST
Imagine pulling God or Jesus down from Heaven into your body. Imagine becoming “one with God” in this way. Say “I want more of God”. “I want more of God”. “I want more of God” as you pull Him down over you. If you prefer, imagine bringing in the High Self, the Oversoul, or the Real Self.
BRINGING HEAVEN TO EARTH
Imagine pulling or drawing Heaven all the way down to the earth. You are acting out the idea expressed in the Lord’s Prayer – “Thy Will be done on earth, as it is already done in Heaven”.
This I call active prayer. It is very powerful and I believe it is the correct way to pray.
THE VACUUM CLEANER
An industrial strength vacuum is below each of your feet, sucking everything out of you and downward.
THE WIND TUNNEL
A wind tunnel is a device used to test aircraft design. It is an enormous fan and blows air from your head to your feet at over 500 miles per hour - and you are caught inside it.
THE HEAVY GRAVITY PLANET
Imagine that you are on a very large planet that has a lot of gravity. You literally feel pulled downward and your feet feel it the most.
THE RACK
This is a medieval torture device in which your head is held tight and ropes are attached to your feet and someone slowly turns a crank that pulls your legs away from your body.
THE GOWN
For women, imagine someone is helping you put on a very tight evening gown. You put it on at your head and pull it down. Imagine it is extremely tight! As a result, it pulls every bit of you downward as it goes on.
THE BOOTS
Imagine you have worn a pair of tight boots all day and your feet have swollen inside them and you are having trouble getting them off. You get two friends to pull as hard as they can while you hold on to your bed.
THE TIGHT PANTS
You are having trouble taking off your tight jeans. You get two friends - one at each leg, to pull down as hard as they can to try to get them off.
PULL OUT THE BABY
While sitting, lying down, or even standing up, imagine you are pregnant and ready to give birth. The baby is upside down with the head poking out the bottom of your pelvis.
To give birth, move your attention to your feet. Then turn around and, from the position at your feet, imagine reaching upward with your hands toward your pelvis.
Imagine using your hands to grasp the baby's head. It is poking out of the bottom of the pelvis. Now PULL straight downward toward the feet as hard as you can.
THE MARLIN
Imagine you go sport fishing. You hook a marlin. This is a large, strong, fighting fish. Your feet get caught in the fishing line and you are pulled overboard by the marlin who is now swimming away.
THE WIRE PULL
Imagine there is a wire extending from your stomach downward, a little inside the front of the body. You pull on it to move the energy downward.
THE DONUT OR TORUS VISUALIZATION
Imagine a donut or torus or automobile tire around your feet as you are sitting or lying down doing the pulling down exercise.
The donut is rotating fast, but not to the right or to the left. It is rotating such that the inside of the donut is moving downward, or away from your head, all the way around the donut. Meanwhile, the outside of the donut or tire – all around the donut - is moving upward, or toward your head.
If you do this correctly, it will feel good and help pull energy downward from your head to your feet. To view a diagram of the donut or tire, click here.
With each of the above images, imagine a violent pulling force that does the following:
Your head. Imagine that your ears are being sucked downward and are becoming elongated, as if you habitually wear huge, heavy earrings. Perhaps visualize your ears being ripped off completely.
Your nose is being sucked downward so you have a big hooked nose that almost touches your lips or even your chin.
Your lips are being sucked downward. The energy may even pull the teeth out of your mouth and pull your eyeballs out of their sockets downward so they are just hanging by a thread, or they completely fall out.
Neck and back. Imagine that your neck is getting long and skinny as the force pulls your body away from your head. As a result, you look like a bugs bunny cartoon character.
Also, imagine the sucking force pulling apart each one of your vertebrae, starting with the top of the neck and moving down to your buttocks. You start to feel at least a foot taller.
Arms. Your arms and legs are also getting longer and skinnier so you are looking like Olive Oyl in the Popeye The Sailor television series. Your elbows, wrists, fingers and fingernails are being pulled downward by the sucking force.
Chest and abdomen. Women and men, imagine your chest and breasts are being pulled downward by the force. They are practically down to your waist. Women, if you are wearing makeup, it pulls your eye shadow down your face, so it looks terrible. If you are wearing a dress, it is pulling it downward so the over-the-shoulder straps are cutting into your shoulders.
Men, the black hole is pulling your testicles downward. It also pulls down everyone’s pants and underpants, and pulls off your rings and other jewelry.
Legs. Now imagine your hips, knees, legs, ankles, toes and toenails are being sucked downward by the force.
Organs and traumas. The black hole also pulls down all of your internal organs, and especially sucks out toxic metals, toxic chemicals, diseases and traumas from every part of the body.
For extra thrills. Imagine every single hair on your body is being sucked straight downward by the force. Women, if you have given birth, imagine a force that pulls the baby out without your having to do anything.
THE BIG, WIDE TUBE
Imagine a long, wide tube made of metal or plastic, perhaps, that stretches from your head all the way to your feet. As you pull energy downward, imagine it streaming down the tube from your head to your feet and out the end of the tube.
THE RAIL GUN VISUALIZATION
A rail gun is a modern weapon consisting of a tube or barrel and a set of about a dozen circular electromagnets around the tube. They look like rings along the length of the tube. A small computer turns on the first electromagnet, then the second, then the third, and so on.
This propels an iron bullet or other iron projectile down the barrel and out the gun. The magnetic pulses are timed so that each one pulls the bullet along faster and faster as it moves down the barrel of the gun. It is simple, but very powerful.
The visualization is to imagine a set of ring-shaped electromagnets one on top of the next, below your feet. They can be small – two inches in diameter, and they form a tube or column below your feet.
You turn on the rail gun. The first magnet that activates is about two feet below your feet. Then the next one activates. It is a little further below the feet. Then the next one activates. It is even little further below your feet.
Each magnet accelerates ether or subtle energy more and more, creating a powerful downward pull. Visualize having at least a dozen of the ring-shaped magnets. When you finish activating the magnets, you start over activating the one nearest your feet first.
Variants. #1 – whole body. If you wish, you can visualize having the magnets inside your entire body, not just below your feet. Have a “tube” of them that runs from the top of your head through the center of your body to the feet. The tube-shaped configuration must extend to below your feet.
#2 – black holes. Instead of magnets, you can visualize a set of small black holes arranged parallel to each other under your feet. These are special ring-shaped anomalies in space that powerfully attract everything to themselves. The internet has photos of these amazing structures.
For the visualization to work, you need to understand the power of a rail gun. It is much more powerful than a black powder hand gun or rifle. I welcome your feedback about this visualization.
THE DRIVE-IN BANK TUBE
Some people know that at a drive-in bank often there is a plastic tube in which to place your money for a deposit. You close the tube and put it into a larger tube and push a button. Then the smaller tube is sucked over to the bank office.
It may seem silly, but you can imagine that you are inside a large version of this bank tube. Someone pushes the button and you are sucked, feet first, over to the main bank office which is far away. You feel it as a powerful vacuum feeling pulling the skin on the bottom of your feet. The main branch of the bank may be in a different nation, so it is quite a ride!
MORE UNUSUAL VISUALIZATIONS
Many donuts. Imagine not one, but many donuts or car tires moving down your body, from your head to your feet. As they do, they squeeze the body tightly and force subtle energy to move downward ahead of each donut or tire.
Sex with God. This imagery is sexy and may be scary for some people, so don’t read it if you do not wish to. It is included because it is helpful for some women to speed recovery from a rape trauma.
The idea is that the pulling down exercise acts as a counter-trauma, meaning it has just the opposite effects of a physical rape.
Visualize a large hole in the top of your head. God enters you there. He “invades” you and violates the boundaries of your body. It is a little scary.
However, at a deep level you know it is God, and not any evil force. You also know, at some level, that you need to be invaded and “ravaged” by the Almighty and born again.
The experience is intense! You may feel invaded and hit from above. To gain the most benefit from this visualization, do the pulling down exercise lying on your back in bed under a sheet without wearing any clothing.
The experience shakes you to your core. The exercise turns on the light inside you. (If you do it right, you may also have a few down orgasms, called Jolts on this website).
The body may vibrate a little. It stirs up everything that is not of God and sends it all packing. It cleans you up at deep levels and “He restores your soul”, as the 23rd Psalm of David says.
Other effects are that you become “pregnant” with God’s ideas and wisdom. Each time you do the exercise properly, the pregnancy becomes greater.
You also get “infections” from being ravaged by God. God “infects” you with hope, faith, love and healing. They are impossible to cure, so you are stuck with them. Now your ego is really in trouble!
The experience is pleasurable as subtle energy flows through your first and second energy centers. However, the goal is not instant pleasure, but rather healing and conversion.
You are never out of control. God does not work this way. However, you are voluntarily letting Him be in charge. As you do this, your life will change. It gets harder and harder to ever go back to the old, sick, egotistical self you were.
You feel slain by the Spirit.
When you come back to the physical world the memory of the Kingdom of God remains, a happy world you can enter at will. In time, and with practice, you bring more and more of this happy world into the physical world.
Magnetizing an iron rod. Think of magnetizing a metal rod. Imagine stroking a piece of iron (the body) with a magnet, moving it only downward, in order to magnetize the metal bar.
Lying down in a fast-moving river. Imagine you are lying in a very shallow, but fast-moving river with your head facing upstream and your feet propped up against a big rock that sticks out of the water.
Water rushes from your head down to your feet all around you with great force. You feel you would be washed away if the rock did not hold your feet.
Also imagine you have a big hole in the top of your head and holes in the bottoms of your feet. The water enters your head and rushes down your body on the inside, as well as all around you.
Sitting under a huge waterfall, or a powerful shower. Imagine sitting under the most powerful waterfall or shower you can imagine. Water crashes down all around you, and moves from your head to your feet with great force.
Also, imagine you have a large hole in the top of your head and holes in the bottoms of your feet, so that water moves into your body, as well, and down and out your feet. It cleanses you, and empties you of old traumas and toxins.
The cookie cutter. Imagine a giant cookie cutter moving over the body, from head to feet, reshaping you in the Image of God.
The Sculptor’s chisel. Imagine you are a block of uncut stone and the Divine Sculptor chisels and drills into you from above. Even though there is pain, it slowly turns you into His beautiful sculpture.
The weights. Imagine weights on your hands and your feet, and maybe one hanging between your legs, too. They are forcefully pulling you downward toward your feet as you walk or sit.
1. Always place your attention at or below your feet. Never put your attention on your head or you will get a headache. Keep your attention as far below your feet as possible.
2. Push downward only, and never in any other directions. Only move subtle energy straight from the head to the feet, and then beyond the feet in a straight line. Do not move it in any other direction, such as up your back or around your liver.
For instance, do not visualize energy flowing in a circle from the head down the front of the body and up the back. Just visualize energy moving downward. This is the safest and best way to do the exercise.
Never move energy sideways, or at an angle. This is dangerous. Some clients ask if they may move the energy into their liver, shoulder, fingers, or somewhere else. The answer is yes, but only if it moves straight down from the head.
3. A headache or tension in the body. If this occurs, it is because your attention is not far below your feet if you are standing or sitting. Or, if you are lying down, your attention is not far beyond your feet out in space.
4. Avoid other mental procedures. No other mental exercise, meditation, visualization, self-hypnosis, mindfulness, prayer, or practice will work as well for development as this procedure. Therefore, don’t waste time and energy on other mental exercises.
5. Schedule the pulling down exercise. Do not try to fit it into your day without scheduling it. It is too easy to forget it.
6. Do not speak commands or affirmations. Some clients want to speak certain words, prayers or affirmations while doing the pulling down exercise. Do not do this. It tends to weaken the exercise a little.
Do not say “I command the energy to go downward”, for example. Instead, silently visualize energy moving from your head toward your feet and down to 30 inches or 75 centimeters below your feet.
7. Ignore phenomena that may occur. You may hear sounds, or see a light, at times. Occasionally, there may be a tingling or other sensation.
These can be retracing or other types of healing. However, ignore the sensations! They are not important or even significant. Moving the energy downward is what matters.
8. If you fall asleep, do not get upset. Just continue when you wake up. You must have needed the sleep.
9. Move energy downward forcefully, but don’t force any changes or results.
What do to if the energy won’t flow down to your feet. Everyone has areas where the energy won’t flow. Common ones are the neck, the chest, the abdomen and the hips. Here is what to do:
1. Breathe very deeply into the stuck area you do the exercise. This will help open it up. Use the three-part yoga breath.
2. Rub the reflex are of both feet that corresponds to the stuck area. Consult a foot map to find the reflex area.
For example, if the energy won’t flow through your chest, then press and rub the reflex area of the feet corresponding to the chest. Rub it firmly several times every day. Any stuck area will be tender when rubbed.
3. Use a red heat lamp on the stuck area every day.
4. Do the Spinal Twist Exercises at least twice every daily. These will help loosen up any stuck area.
5. Continue using the pulling down exercise. Eventually, the energy will move through.
THE THREE PROBLEMS
Three enemies of a successful pulling down exercise are distraction, boredom and disturbance.
Distractions are common. One must shut them out or ignore them to be successful. Realize that doing the pulling down procedure is an excellent use of your time. It will change your entire life for the better. Most distractions just waste your time and energy.
Distractions hopefully lose their appeal after a while, but at first they can be daunting! Distractions include spending a lot of time with friends, hiking in the woods, working or hobbies, shopping, surfing the web, texting, and talking on the phone.
Others are driving around, vacationing, sitting in restaurants and theaters, and attending sports events and concerts. Still others are daydreaming, too much sex, parties, tinkering, polishing cars and excessive cleaning or other excessive attention to one’s home or appearance.
Note that one can do the pulling down procedure while on an airplane, on vacation and in a car if one is not driving.
Boredom will occur, at times. You must just push through it. Keep reminding yourself that this is the most important part of the development program, and it is worth the time and effort.
Boredom often stems from a desire to “have it all” quickly. However, this is not the way development works, especially at first.
Some people notice they feel better quickly when they begin the pulling down procedure. However, in other people development begins slowly for most people. It picks up speed as you advance on the path of development. This becomes more exciting and acts as a motivator later, but not at first.
Disturbance means that something arises during or accompanying the pulling down exercise that is upsetting, scary, annoying or otherwise unpleasant. Common ones are crying, sadness, depression, anxiety, pain, odd sensations in the body, and unpleasant memories. Rarely, other phenomena arise, such as hearing things, seeing lights, or something else.
These are really forms of distractions, but they come from within. They cause some people to stop doing the procedure. However, in all cases if one just persists, the disturbance will pass. Here are more suggestions for these common problems.
FOR DISTRACTIONS:
1. Do the exercise while doing a Coffee Enema or a Vaginal Coffee Implant. These excellent development procedures force one to lie still for 20 to 30 minutes, and they help move energy down the body.
2. Try the visualizations in the section above this one. They can be fun and help keep things interesting.
3. Pick a time and do the exercise at the same time each day, in the same location. This helps some people with distractions.
4. Arrange things right. Turn off the phone and, if needed, arrange for someone to watch your children when you schedule your exercise.
5. If you work outside your home, perhaps go to the office early or stay late if you cannot do the pulling down exercise at home. However, if possible, find a quiet, secluded spot in your home to do it.
6. On difficult days, think of your brain as an unruly child who has been spoiled for 20 years or more. On some days, the child will resist more. Just think, “OK, we’ll do our best and we will do better tomorrow.”
The exercise involves discipline, which comes from the same root as the word ‘disciple’. It is not about forcing things. It is about gently staying with this path as a disciple of this method, and the results will come.
7. Listen to a recording of the exercise. This can help to maintain your focus and to time your sessions. To listen to a newer audio program about the pulling down procedure, click here.
8. If you cannot sit still, do the exercise while walking slowly, or while lying down.
9. Do the exercise in a place where you are confined to a chair, such as during an airplane flight or at a pleasant concert.
10. Do the exercise in a bathroom stall if that is the only peaceful place you can find.
11. Do the exercise with your family at the dinner table before dinner. Doing the exercise with others can help avoid certain distractions.
FOR BOREDOM OR DISCOURAGEMENT:
You may notice results within a few days or weeks, but many people do not notice results, at times. They become discouraged, or they think they are doing the exercise incorrectly.
Usually, neither is true. The exercise is working, and they are doing it right. This problem occurs most often during the first year or two of doing the exercise.
At times, changes caused by the exercise are not apparent. Just stay with it! If you are very unsure about it, you may send me an email and perhaps I can help.
Do not become discouraged if it seems like nothing is occurring. For example, it could take a crisis for you to realize you are calmer, more centered and detached, and healthier mentally and emotionally.
The exercise will yield insights about yourself and others. However, they may not come to you while doing the exercise. They may come while you are doing the dishes, or driving in your car.
FOR DISTURBANCES:
Each time you do the exercise, it slightly alters the way you perceive the world. You will see things slightly differently. Some of what you see may not be pleasant. At times, anxiety, fear, anger, depression or other feelings can surface.
Do your best to stay with the feelings, rather than run from them, or discontinue the exercise. Do your best to watch it all from a neutral place, like watching a movie.
Be grateful for seeing the truth, even if it is unpleasant. Recall the phrase from the Bible: “Know the truth and the truth will set you free”.
You do not have to react in any way. Definitely do not judge yourself or others. If you wallow in your negative thoughts or insights, it will keep them around.
View all thoughts, emotions and insights as you would view clouds in the sky. As they arise, just observe them and let them go. Let them just float through your mind like a cloud floats through the sky. This is a wonderful analogy.
They will eventually pass. And be sure to forgive everyone. For details about this important practice, read Forgiving on this website.
Random thoughts will arise, at times, and at times songs will float through your mind. Memories may surface, or you may begin to think about what to do later in the day. Your body may itch or hurt, or you may fall asleep. For these occurrences:
1. Observe the disturbances without judgment. These include any thoughts, feelings, or memories. Just observe them, like watching clouds in the sky. Do not indulge them, worry about them, or in any way hold on to them. Just observe them, notice you are distracted, and then bring your attention back to the procedure. This is usually a better approach than trying to “shut them down”.
You will need to just observe thoughts thousands of times. Slowly, your mind will learn not to stray as much. You are training part of your mind to observe at all times. This is a very important benefit of the procedure that takes some years to do, but tremendously improves mental functioning!
The process is very similar to training a dog or training an unruly child. Some days will be easier than others. If you have a bad day, don’t fret. Just say to yourself, “We will do better tomorrow.”
RETRACING AND HEALING REACTIONS
Physical healing reactions. As the physical body heals due to the effects of the pulling down exercise, you may experience temporary symptoms. These are called healing reactions or purification reactions.
Examples may include a headache, another ache or pain, an upset stomach, gurgling in the abdomen (an excellent sign), a skin rash, a cold, or something else.
Mental and emotional healing reactions. Temporary healing symptoms may also include any possible feelings such as anger, fear, anxiety, resentment or others. Memories may also surface.
In all cases, these are feelings and thoughts that were suppressed or forgotten, often many years ago. They need to be exposed so they can be acknowledged, processed and released. Continuing with the pulling exercise will usually accomplish this very important aspect of physical and mental healing without any need for counseling or any other interventions.
These purification symptoms are very positive, even if a symptom is unpleasant, annoying, or scary. They will pass.
If a symptom is very intense. In this instance, experiment to see if doing the pulling exercise more makes it go away. In some cases, doing it for less time will make the symptom milder, although it will usually delay complete healing, to some degree.
Another very helpful idea is to follow a complete development program, including the procedures. These can also assist you to get through all types of healing reactions faster and with less annoyance.
If retracing reactions continue to be a problem, I may be able to assist you. For example, you may be overlooking a development procedure or an aspect of your lifestyle that needs attention.
FORGIVENESS
To allow and facilitate mental, emotional and sometimes physical healing, everyone must let go of grudges, judgments and resentments against everyone!. This is critical.
If you do not do this, the issue, situation or trauma will keep coming up during your pulling exercise. When this happens, many people stop doing the exercise because it is unpleasant.
The only solution that I have found is to forgive everyone, including yourself, for everything that has ever happened to you. This may sound extreme. However, it is absolutely needed in order for complete healing to occur in the brain and the body.
Forgiving does not mean forgetting, condoning, or that you must remain in touch with someone who harmed you. However, forgiveness is absolutely essential for success with this exercise.
This is a large and important topic related to the pulling exercise. It is one of the most important problems, if not the most critical one, that arises when a person follows a development program or just begins to do the pulling down exercise. For more on this topic, please read Forgiving and Forgiving Parents on this website.
Speaking with a counselor. Rarely, it is wise to talk about your insights with a counselor or a trusted friend. However, this is rarely needed, nor is it always helpful. The goal is let go of the past, and move on in your life.
Talking about it for hours of weeks often sustains the trauma, which is not desirable. There is no need to justify, confirm, or rationalize anything that you did, or that someone else did. It is better to let it all go.
VI. OTHER SUGGESTIONS FOR SUCCESS
1. Do the exercise as much as you can. There is no overdoing it! If at all possible, do it for at least two hours daily or more.
Once you develop to Large Stage 2 you will not need to do the procedure for more than 20 minutes or so daily in order to continue developing. However, continuing to do the pulling down exercise more will develop you much faster. By the time one develops to Large Stage 2, most people understand the benefits of the procedure and are happy to do it for at least one hour daily.
2. Each time you do the exercise, do it as though it were the first time. Do not let it become just a mechanical habit. You must do it a little deeper and harder each time.
3. Make it a central and vital part of your lifestyle. Schedule it into your day so you don’t overlook this important new part of your life.
4. Be patient and persistent. Benefits come in their own time, not when you think they should.
Just keep at it. It may not be easy, at first. The reactive mind or ‘monkey mind’, as some call it, will fight you hard at times to stay in control, and to keep you out of control. This is what you must overcome, so just stay with it.
Most people live on ‘autopilot’ most of the day. Changing this takes some patience and persistence.
5. Be open to seeing the truth about everything. Repeatedly tell yourself that you want to know the truth about everything and everyone. Otherwise, you may stop doing the exercise when certain truths are revealed to you.
This is very important! Many people want to develop, but they don’t want to know the truth about themselves, their family, their friends, their lifestyle or perhaps other aspects of life. You may have to change your friends, your lifestyle or perhaps even your religion or your politics.
If you resist seeing the truth, your progress will slow and some people stop the procedure. This is a shame, so be open to learning the truth about all things.
6. Be open to waking up and seeing yourself as you really are. If you do this, you will see your faults and shortcomings. However, you will also become aware of beautiful and amazing qualities of character and abilities that you did not know you had.
Getting to know yourself with this exercise is a very positive and happy experience, even with its moments of disillusionment or even moments of disgust. It is all part of the process as you become free of your past and all the false notions that you learned from your parents, teachers, and friends.
7. Never complicate the exercise. This will be tempting, at times. This is most important.
It can take the form of trying to do the exercise perfectly every time, obsessing over details, and worrying constantly that you are not doing it correctly. This is a form of distraction or disturbance.
