Thought this was a wry place to post this link. And we wonder why we aren't openly contacted by higher intelligences. {http://www.villagevoice.com/issues/0118/baard.shtml} |

Michael, You're right. Although it's not so much that organs are being harvested from death row inmates , it's the sad fact that humans even need to have a death row in the first place. Kind regards, Steve M. |

Hi Anthea, I'd like to expand on your point that you made about the loofah or cloth in the Diet section. Since this concerns the body, in general, I'll post it here in "The Body" section. I read in Billy's book "Direktiven" (Directives) that washcloths of all types should be avoided since they are extremely unhygienic and are carriers of bacteria and contagions. He says the hands should be the primary "tool" for cleansing the body since they are naturally provided and suited for such tasks. Other tools to help the process would be brushes with synthetic or plant bristles. Brushes with animal hair/bristles should never be used as they harbor pathogens and diseases. He also mentioned natural sponges as being other good cleansing aids. Regards, Marc |

Hi Marc, What alternative is there to not using a bath towel when getting out the bath or shower? Or is it just the way you use a bath towel? |

Hello, Interesting topic (as usually). How about sauna? Most Finnish people are very fond of it. I'm not sure anymore whether its good for the health or not. Does anyone have any thoughts/knowledge/experience with this matter? Regards, Jani |

Hi Marc, Regarding brushes, so as not to be confusing are these suggested for the hair only (not something I have to concern myself with personally) or hands, body, etc. as Anthea and Andrew pointed out the inappropriateness of dry brushing? |

Hi Michael, I took it to mean brushes used to scrub the body, not hair brushes. |

Whoa Marc, In the other section it appears that Andrew said that skin brushing is a big no-no. Now this may not be THE biggest and most important of the teachings but...we should straighten this out! |

A dirty topic: Perhaps if one is really dirty, such as working on a vehicle or whatever... use a brush to get the oil spots (etc.) off? What about hand soap (or hair shampoo)? Being nice & moist, I suspect that some hand soaps would harbour all sorts of tiny creatures as well... I'm STILL trying to figure out how to get dry after a shower...! If I can't "dry off", I'd want to rinse with distilled water !! |

Hi Marc, interesting info about the natural brushes and sponges ... it makes me wonder though about the other information that Billy provided about using cloths etc. which disturb the delicate protective barrier on the skin. Perhaps if you're going to disrupt this barrier by necessity then it is better to use the "safe" products mentioned? Regards, Anthea |

Hi JP, I think that "blotting", without rubbing and disturbing the skin, followed by friction with the hands might be acceptable. What do you thin Anthea, andrew, marc...Billy? Michael |

Hi Michael, all, I drip dried this morning... !! Probably a blow dryer might be best...? Try not to get electrocuted, though...! (this is probably a BAD idea...) While we're at it: Shaving... scraping a razor or whirly cutter blades over the skin can't be good for it either, eh? Is that one reason why Billy has a beard? JP |

Hi JP, Michael, all. The advice is only a guideline to better health. I don't quite understand what you mean by blotting then rubbing with the hands Michael -do you mean while one is bathing, or drying off? I think it is wiser to acknowledge the bit of advice offered and then adapt it to our own best personal use - there is no "one size fits all" in this instance, in my opinion. JP - your post is quite humorous. I think the nicest thing could be to walk around naked until the body is dried naturally - that is if one has the time! Regards, Anthea |

Hi Anthea, By blotting I meant with a towel, then hand rubbing/drying. The blotting if done gently is, I figure, no more abrasive than the effect of wearing clothes which rub lightly against the body all day. I once tried the naked dry off but some of my students objected, the other ones, as usual, weren't paying any attention. Michael |

Hi all, I did a key search & found no info on this question I am asking. Plejarans are anatomically the same as we are. What is there opinion, medically on circumcision ? Is it better for us/them to do or not to do ? Do they perform circumcision on there young ? Any info ? Thanks , Steve |

Hi all, I'm not trying to be weird , strange or a perv with the above post. Most of us will be having children if we don't have them already. Here on Earth circumcision is a Religion thing for some & It hasn't been proven that it's better to do or not do, medically. I figure the way you're born & all the parts you'r born with are in accordance with Creation.(If you're born with something it must have a purpose.)I'm pretty sure nobody has asked about it. Do the Plejarans look at this as a primitive practice ? Salome, Steve |

How do deaf people think? Do they hear a voice in their head? Do they see sign language (if they've learned it) or see words written out? Michael |

Hi Michael, Non-verbal concepts/thoughts... perhaps including "pictures" as well. These would not necessarily have to include any form of written, sign or picture language. For at least some people, just "knowingness" or "understandings" etc. I suspect that each person's mind/intellectual/spiritual abilities would also affect the way they perceive thoughts/ideas/memories. Also, culture and "mental communications" (telepathy etc.) could also play a part. Questions: Do you "mentally verbalize" every single "thought" or "knowing" you experience? Can you "shut these verbalizations" off? Can you KNOW or Recognize something without verbalizing it? I think most of us experience too much TV & radio etc. Our minds "rattle" with verbalizations & we think this is normal. Many of us cannot conceive of "thinking" without it. Verbally yours...

Michael, I have known 2 deaf people. One deaf from birth & one who lost her hearing. The one who lost her hearing thinks the same as those who hear.The girl who was born deaf learned sign language & went to a school for the deaf.They learn through picture/word association , learn to read lips & can identify/associate throat vibrations with words .These are the things they visualize when thinking.I actually asked her about it when I very young.I haven't seen either of them in many years. What they visualize/how they think, if they were never taught I can't imagine. Salome Steve |

Hi all, I think Steve hits the nail on the head when he says, in part: " . . . if they were never taught I can't imagine." All of us are taught languaging early on, either from our parents, our primary caregivers, our siblings, our school mates, our teachers . . . if we are so lucky to be in a country that allows for education of males and females! So, a deaf person learns as taught, as with a blind person, as with a deaf and blind person, as with a hearing and sighted person. It is my understanding that a deaf person can hear(see) as a blind person can see (hear) far more acutely than the rest of us who lack either faculty. Any comments? Linda |

This might be as good a place as any...until someone suggests the "right" place for this. It seems to be corroborating what Billy said about Near Death and Out of Body Experiences: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A34725-2002Sep18.html |

How does this relate to what Billy said about OBEs and NDEs? What exactly did Billy say again about this? |
