> THE LIVER TREATMENT
Those suffering with liver problems are usually catching on both the Right Swadisthan and Right Nabhi chakras, and may experience a feeling of heat (or even pain in extreme cases) in the region of the liver itself. They may also experience a lack of appetite or nausea. H.H. Mataji has said that the liver is the seat of the Attention, and that a 'bad' liver can therefore result in a fragmentation of the Attention. This can manifest in a lack of focus and concentration of the Attention, and inevitably this will prevent the sufferer from going deeper. One of the first signs of a problematic liver will probably be difficulties with the meditation, too many thoughts. H.H. Mataji has also said that the liver nourishes the Joy which comes from the Spirit (Atma) that resides in the Heart, and that if it is damaged it is very difficult for someone to develop this feeling of Joy within themselves, or even feel it more than a very short time. These are among the reasons why H.H. Mataji pays particular attention to this physical problem and has given us a special diet to follow which brings about a very quick recovery. As well as giving us this prescribed diet, H.H. Mataji has told us that the best thing that one can do for a 'bad' liver is to sit and take vibrations from Her photograph with the right hand, and pass them top the liver by placing the left hand on the liver (i.e. underneath and a little inside the rib cage on the right hand side of the body).
DIET - SUGAR: H.H. Mataji has said that sugar is the food of the liver. This is cane sugar, not beet sugar. Tate & Lyle and Sainsburys sugar is cane sugar, other makes use of beet. There is also a type of sugar known as sugar candy or rock sugar which is available from most Indian shops - its use is described under Black Kokum below. - BLACK KOKUM: This is a type of fruit which can be bought from most Indian stores. We make a drink out of these little fruits (they look like prunes but are not sweet). The method is simply to pour boiling water over a small handful of Kokum in a jug, together with roughly the same amount of the above sugar candy. The mixture should then be left overnight and drunk the next day as normal beverage, in place of tea or coffee. - GINGER: Ginger in almost any form is good for the liver. In particular H.H. Mataji has advised us to take some in the morning in a spoon mixed with sugar and followed by a glass of water! Crystallised Ginger is also very good. This mixture should NOT however, be taken in very hot climates or hot temperatures (i.e. summer) - CHANA: This is known as chick peas, and can be bought dry roasted or uncooled for making 'dhall' or soups etc. Chick peas are very good for the whole Nabhi Chakra. - FRUIT: Generally most fruit is good for the Nabhi Chakra. In particular grapes are good, and grape juice in its pure form is also very beneficial. - VEGETABLES, SALADS etc.: All are good in general. Radishes in particular (and their leaves) can be taken and boiled with sugar candy and drunk as a beverage, very good for the liver.
VERY HARMFUL FOR THE LIVER - Alcohol, Fried Foods, Fatty or oily food, Heavy meat, Butter or Ghee, Very spicy or hot food, Cream and Ice Cream, Chocolate, Fish, White bread, Non China teas, Coffee (especially if strong) NOT ADVISABLE - Cheese, Most dairy products, Too much milk, Too much salt OK IN SMALL AMOUNTS - Chicken VERY GOOD FOR THE LIVER - Yogurt is very cooling for the liver, but it must NOT be eaten in a cold climate or cold part of the year (i.e. winter / spring)
