Psoriasis Pioneer Pagano Headlines Russian Medical Conference
By Todd Burgin

John O. A. Pagano, DC, a 50-year member of the A.R.E. and psoriasis researcher for over 40 years, gave a presentation on treating psoriasis before the Russian Academy of Science in Moscow in October, 2009. The entire two-day conference was focused on both traditional and non-traditional methods of treating this often-devastating skin condition, which afflicts an estimated three to four percent of the Russian population (about double the rate in the United States).

The roster of speakers at the conference included many notable figures in the Russian health field, Pagano said. “They were a pretty tough act to follow,” he added. “But it did not deter me, because I had something to offer that they lacked. It was a new, natural approach to the disease with undeniable proof of its effectiveness.”

Day one of the conference was presented to health professionals, scientists, and the press. While the majority of the speakers discussed the latest pharmaceutical approaches and medical trends for treatment of psoriasis, Pagano laid out his program, which uses no drugs. He added that his approach is not meant to be a replacement for medicine, but rather an alternative if more traditional methods are ineffective.

Pagano’s program is based on his “three Ds” – diet, detoxification, and determination. He described the importance of a high-alkaline, low-acidic diet, herb teas, massage with certain oils, detoxification procedures, spinal adjustments that activate the immune system, proper eliminations, and healthful attitudes. He also stressed that time and patience are essential elements for success, along with the patient’s willingness to take responsibility for their own recovery. He said, “If a patient practiced the three Ds, it is possible that he can rid himself of every lesion, rash, and disfigurement to the point that he would never know he ever had it!

This statement “sent shockwaves through the audience,” he added. “They never heard of such a concept before. But this time, it was not only words that were thrown at them; I had the proof!” Pagano’s patient, Katya Varlamova, 26, accompanied him to the conference as his “proof” and interpreter. She had suffered from a severe case of psoriatic arthritis for 12 years, but “had been healed after following the regimen faithfully for six months.” She followed Pagano’s presentation by sharing her story of transformation from psoriasis covering 80 percent of her body to being completely blemish-free.

In his talk, Pagano made it clear that the inspiration for his more than 40 years of work in this field was the Edgar Cayce readings. In a 1942 reading, when asked if there was an absolute cure for psoriasis, Cayce replied, “Most of this is found in diet. There is a cure. It requires patience and persistence – and right thinking also.” (2455-2) Pagano combined this and other information found in the readings with his own observations to form the Cayce-Pagano diet. “It seemed to be my life’s purpose to prove the truth of that statement,” he said.

New A.R.E. Press Book Bobbie’s Organic Planet Featured in Virginian-Pilot Article and Review

Having lived in six countries on three continents, Bobbie Williamson's global travels afforded her the special opportunity to absorb not only the distinct qualities of foreign cultures, but also to learn a wide variety of culinary techniques. Her unique cooking style incorporates both Edgar Cayce's healthy philosophy regarding food combinations along with Bobbie's own favorite Mediterranean, Asian, and Middle Eastern cuisines in the new A.R.E. Press book Bobbie's Organic Planet: How to Buy Local and Cook Global.

Her firm belief is that people should know the source of the foods they eat and, as the Cayce readings stress, the importance of buying locally grown and organic products as often as possible. This can be a fun experience for families while they make outings to local farmers' markets to pick their own food, or better yet, have a vegetable garden at home.

Join Us in Prayer for the Victims of Natural Disasters

Please join us in prayer for all those affected by the earthquake in Haiti. So often, when a disaster strikes, it is difficult to know what to do. We want to help, but aren’t sure of how. We need to remember that prayer is creative power which can, and does make a difference. Hold an image of Divine love enfolding and surrounding Haiti, each individual, the community, and the men and women volunteering their assistance.

All of us at WorldPrayerGroup.com, a department of Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E., are coming together to strengthen our prayers for the victims of this and all natural disasters. If, as Scripture says, the prayers of ten can save a city, our collective supplication for these suffering brothers and sisters may in some way ease their pain and lighten their way. We invite you to join with us in prayer. Go to the Participate in Prayer to unite with the A.R.E.'s International Prayer effort.

Thy prayers ascend to the throne of God, and the angel of each entity stands before the throne to make intercession. Not as a physical throne, no; but that consciousness in which we may be so attuned that we become one with the whole in lending power and strength to each entity for whom you speak and pray.

Possible Atlantis Sites Discovered
By John Van Auken

For fifteen years, the Edgar Cayce Center in Virginia Beach, Virginia, has been conducting expeditions off the coast of the tiny island of Bimini and along the Gulf Stream in search of Atlantis. They have found fascinating underwater features that may be man-made structures covered by ages of sand and coral.

According to the Edgar Cayce readings, the people of Atlantis became aware of the fact that their civilization was about to be destroyed. As a result, they hid identical records of the Atlantean civilization in Bimini, in Egypt, and in the Yucatan. Numerous readings contend that this “Hall of Records” will be discovered, including:

(Q) Give in detail what the sealed room contains.

 

(A) A record of Atlantis from the beginnings of those periods when the Spirit took form or began the encasements in that land, and the developments of the peoples throughout their sojourn, with the record of the first destruction and the changes that took place in the land...

 

This in position lies, as the sun rises from the waters, the line of the shadow (or light) falls between the paws of the Sphinx, that was later set as the sentinel or guard, and which may not be entered from the connecting chambers from the Sphinx's paw (right paw) until the TIME has been fulfilled when the changes must be active in this sphere of man's experience. (Reading 378-16)

A.R.E. is still seeking the Hall of Records, which director John Van Auken believes might be found off the coast of Bimini at the edge of the Gulf Stream where the waters are 200-300 feet deep.

This first photo was taken in July of 2000 and reveals a series of terraces rising from the depths up a mound with sandy pathways.

Clearing Items of Negative Energy
Part 2
By Tina Erwin

What tools do you use to clean negative energy from anything? The tools listed below are designed to be helpful, useful and practical. Remember, as you are clearing an object, be sure to state your intention with prayer and visualize the light of God permeating the object.

Dragon’s Blood, Frankincense, Benzoin and Myrrh are types of resins from Sumatra, which you burn in a small black rounded out charcoal ‘holder.’ You buy them in either bricks and break it down, or you can buy them in small pieces. You will need a Pyrex bowl to hold the heated pieces. Heat the charcoal holder with tongs, until it is glowing, and then place the dragon’s blood and one or all of the rest of the resin pieces on top of the charcoal in the bowl. A white smoke will immediately come up and it is this white smoke that actually clears the negativity of an object. You will want to use the real resin, not incense because incense will not work the same as the smoke from these resins.

These resins will work on houses, cars, furniture, clothing, books, rugs, jewelry, a person, and the general atmosphere of a location. Depending on the object, you will want to move the smoky glass bowl all around the piece, the house, car or even yourself, if you have been in a profoundly negative place, being careful not to burn yourself. Be sure to leave a window open when you do this, so that he negative energy can leave your location. Remember, Dragon’s blood incense does not work the same way.

Frankly, those of us who study this, find the use of these resins to be the best way to clear large things. Sage just isn’t powerful enough to permanently remove negativity and even these powerful resins only work to a certain degree and that degree is predicated on the amount of negativity an object holds.

• Essential oil of Pennyroyal is exceptionally powerful tool to use to clear negative energy. However, Pennyroyal is toxic when you touch it, so be sure to wear gloves. Wash the piece of jewelry in warm soapy water. Dry it well. Place the piece of jewelry to be cleared in a zip lock bag. Place several drops of the pennyroyal in the bag and rub the piece with the oil through the sealed bag. Place the bag in bright sunlight for one to three weeks, depending on how negative the item is. Remove the item, wash again in warm soapy water, and dry. See how you feel.
• Salt is a powerful clearing tool. Wrap an object in dry salt and aluminum foil, shiny side in. This contains the energy and will also help to clear it. Be very careful about certain pieces of jewelry, not all of them will tolerate salt. Leave in the salt one to 15 days, depending on the severity of the negativity. Never wash opals or pearls in salt.
• Bach flower remedies can be used on a specific piece of jewelry, or other large object or clothes. You can put Rescue Remedy or whatever essence you like in a spray bottle and spray the object, garment or piece of furniture. This is especially helpful if you happen to know that the object was connected to a trauma. You may have to do this several times to fully clear it.
• Other essential oils also can be used to clear jewelry and other objects. Sweet orange oil, Frankincense, Eucalyptus, cedar, lemon, rose, peppermint and sage are but a few of the wonderful ones to try. Get a sense of what feels right to you and then put 10-15 drops of the essence you chose in a small spray bottle and fill the rest of the bottle with spring water. Bless the water and/or say a prayer over the bottle and then use this essence to clean a space, or an object. This is a great tool to clear hotel rooms when traveling.

Other ways to clear washable jewelry (be careful with pearls, tanzanite, and opals) and crystals include:

• Washing in warm soapy water, rinsing and then placing the object in the sun for up to several weeks.
• Wash the object and then bury it in the ground or in a pot with a seedling in it. Again leave several weeks. Be sure to mark where you put something in the ground with a little flag.
• Diamonds respond beautifully when soaked in salt water for 24 hours or longer.
• Put the pieces in a fine mesh bag and lay them in a rushing river or stream for an hour or more. Often the continual fresh water will really wash negative energy away.
• Do the same as above, only go to the ocean and allow the salt water to wash the pieces. The power of the ocean in clearing objects is amazing.
• Holding the piece under running water will clear energy from a stone; metal is cleared by contact with the earth.
