Interesting Information from an Austrian Mystic

I bought this book in January after discovering Jakob Lober by accident. I was looking at the amaluxherbal website for information on Franz Bardon and started reading about Lorber in addition to Bardon. This is not an easy read - a reader would be advised to read it with a dictionary handy. Some of the English seems to be archaic, and the early chapters deal with what I consider to be theology and Christian occultism. The book really picks up and becomes interesting from Part IV (Health Care The Spiritual Foundation of Health) onwards. Considering obesity and lack of self-control when it comes to eating and drinking is the outward manifestation of poor spiritual health of many Americans, there is much (pardon the pun) Food for thought in this second half of the book. There is specific advice both of the religious and culinary kind. There is Lorber's version of a food pyramid - what is best to eat (starting with fish), also advice that Lorber gave to individuals suffering from various ailments. I had one small complaint about this book - on page 184 it states the following; "Whereas, among the different kinds of bread, wheat is the best." followed by this footnote; "This does not apply to present-day wheat, which has approximately 40 chromosomes, compared to 4 in the `1800's-ED." OK editors, then tell us what kind of bread is best in the present time - don't leave us hanging. At any rate, that is a small complaint about an excellent book with much useful information. If you are interested in religion and nutrition, this book is for you.

Excellent Synopsis for those into Alternative Health

This book is a treasure trove of useful sage advice about maintaining your physical health from a German Mystic circa 1800. The book is a distillation from another multi topic multivolume Lorber work, however it is a pleasant and quick read. The book is not made for those who are dedicated to the alter of science and the so called scientific method ( who will without doubt scorn this work). But for those with true understanding of spirituality this book can be a literal life saver. The revelations contained therein, written some 200 years ago are still the best advice (IMHO) for dealing with or preserving the vitality of the physical vehicle that we occupy during our lifetime. This is a practical book, that can imporve the quality of your life. There is no miracle penicillin cure here, but use this as a guide book to alter your style and mode of existence slowly. I found several ideas that I already have implemented. I think you will be well served by reading this book and taking much of its good advice to heart. This book is a work of Love towards Mankind; those who can discern its nature will appreciate it for what it is..
