Читать книгу Health For Power - Edwin Anthony Bay - Страница 3

First came the book. According to this book, once a person attained physical and spiritual health, no goal, however lofty, was out of reach: family, career, politics – the works. The book maintained that man can turn his life around - that he can be both powerful and happy. That he can cast off his illnesses and achieve anything he sets out to accomplish.

I wrote this book. As soon as I wrote it, however, I knew that there was absolutely no sense in publishing it. There are thousands of such books out there, and yet people are unable to maintain their health, to enjoy successful careers, or to find happiness.

We all buy informative, helpful books that tell us about the inner workings of the brain, our internal organs, our senses; we engage in discussions, looking for the root of certain illnesses and for ways to fight them. We go from medication to medication, driving doctors mad with our questions and problems. And yet, the illness persists.

That means the books are not an answer. But then – what is? For centuries, a vast body of knowledge on human health has been at our fingertips, but the majority of us are, for one reason or another, utterly incapable of putting this knowledge into practice.

I have studied many concepts: eating right, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, the latest health-exercise programs, the ancient methods, yoga – all in search of answers. I’ve read about wealth and power, meditation and achieving happiness and the meaning of both life and death. I have bought volumes upon volumes penned by sages of the Orient and philosophers of Europe.

Among them are such magnificent authors as Gurdzhiev, Schopenhauer, Goethe, Solovyov, Castaneda, Aristotle, Nietzsche, Da Vinci, Blavatsky, Khayyam and many others. All of them led me to an ocean of knowledge about man and mankind, but not one of them gave me a formula. The illusive formula for attaining health and power seemed so close – but kept slipping right through my fingers!

At first, I thought of my query as a problem to be solved. Soon after, however, I changed my way of thinking – it was not a problem, but a riddle that was before me. Or, perhaps, a secret.

And soon, it became a fascination – a desire to find the answer, the key that would fit. A key, which would unlock the door to human health and to the fulfillment of our full human potential. The search was long. Twenty years, to be exact. Of course, on the universal scale this is but a moment, but on the scale of one human life – twenty years measures in billions of moments.

Now, I can be so bold as to state that the key has indeed been found. The shamanic traditions of the Siberian indigenous peoples have proven instrumental and invaluable to my search. This key will enable you to open your own door, unique to you, beyond which you will find your health, your power, and your life’s happiness.

Welcome, and best of luck on your journey!
