From the Course Director's Desk....

Failures are stepping stones for success
 

Though human beings have the capability to be healthy and happy forever in practice we have to undergo sufferings due to our mistakes and failures in life.It is my sincere wish that everyone must begin at once to shatter the mold of past failures, disappointments and frustrations. One should never feel that our life has been spent in useless pursuits.Everything that has happened to us even our failures and disappointments, heartaches and sufferings have been for a purpose.

Nothing in the cosmic scheme is ever without purpose. One must have needed these negative experiences to give us compassion and understanding of other people and their weaknesses.

However, if one wishes to build a new life, he / she cannot do it on the mental foundations of continued negative thinking. We must forget the past failures and disasters but remembering only the lessons learnt from the failures.

Do not rehearse your past failures but reverse these failures in the mind. We can change our destiny by our good Karmic actions in the present, here and now.

With best wishes

Yoshinobu Kawahara,Australia

Says Chitra Narayanaswami, Nungambakan, Chennai, Tel 2871 0826

First I should thank Dr. Jayalakshmi for introducing me to the drugless treatment. I am a 52 year old housewife. 1 was suffering from migraine headache for over 10 years. I tried Allopathy, Homoeopathy and Ayurvedic treatments but in vain. I came to know about Dr. Jayalakshmi through her article in ‘Mangayar Malar’. I visited her and she promised me that I will be cured by the drugless method. First I did’nt belive it. After her Acupressure and Acupuncture treatment I felt that I am slowly getting relieved from the headache. For the past three months I have not got any symptoms of headache. I am very much thankful to Dr. Jayalakshmi for the wonderful treatment. I wish that people should know more about this drugless treatment and get benefitted.

Course Director’s Comments : The Formula:  ­Liv   ¯Lu  ­H8   ­P9  can give permanent cure for Migraine.Repeat the treatment once a month for 3 months.

Piles cured by simple treatment by Acupuncture method

Says Mr. Azeem, Numerologist, Bangalore. Tel: 98450 69684

I had severe piles problem for almost 3 years. I had tried various allopathic and ayurvedic treatments but nothing helped. One day I decided to go for surgical treatment, which I had avoided all these years.Coincidentally, Dr. Sujata called me up to clarify certain things in numerology. I asked her if by acupuncture/acupressure piles can be cured. She said yes.

Subsequently I had the acupuncture/acupressure treatments for 2-3 sittings. I had good relief . Now it is almost gone. Thank you very much for giving me total relief

Course Director’s Comments : The Formula:   ¯LI11   ­Liv ­LI 1  ¯TW10 can give very good relief within  24 hours.

Nagging back ache cured easily by Acupuncture

Says Mrs. Jayanthi Krishnan, Mandaveli, Chennai. Tel: 310 58623

I had developed back pain for quite some time. I had been to doctors who put me into lots of antibiotics and teste. I did not get any relief My pain worsened and I became totally immobile one day. I was not able to getup and move. My husband admitted me in a private hospital. The pain was very severe and I cried, but of no use. Lots of injections were given to relieve the pain but not effective.

The doctor advised me to take a MRI test. I took it in Vijaya Hospital. The report revealed I had L₄ and L₅ disc degeneration and prolapse. The doctor advised me a surgery. They said surgery was the only solution. After a week in the hospital, I was discharged. The pain was bad and I had no relief, not even the slighest relief

My husband was very upset as to how to go about the problem. Allopath doctors were all advising only surgery. It was a God sent message that my uncle saw an article in ‘Mangai Malar’ magazine about Dr. J. Jayalakshmi’s acupressure treatment. My husband immediately telephoned Dr. Jayalakshmi and requested her to visit us. She immediately accepted to treat me. To my utter surprise, I had a slight relief from the pain at the first treatment itself. She asked her assistant Mr. Meenakshi Sundaram to give me treatment regularly. lnitially I was given acupuncture treatment on alternate days. To my utter surprise and disbelief, my back pain started reducing gradually. Just by pressing a few points the pain vanished totally and I started walking slowly. Within 3 months I have come back to normal. Surgery was totally avoided.

I am very grateful to Dr. Jayalakshmi. But for her coming home and loving attention, I would not have regained my normal back.

I, though my personal experience, have advised everyone to know more about acupressure and undergo treatment to avoid any complicated ailments. In fact acupressure can be used as a preventive method. It is a drugless therapy. The allopathy drugs, which many-a-times have reactions, can be totally avoided. Acupressure is a God given health tool to solve any severe and common ailments.

Course Director’s Comments : The Formula:  ­B 66  ¯St36 ­ Gb 41   ­TW2will give immediate relief. But in the long run, the spinal exercise as per the Orthopedic specialists advice can strengthen the back and can give long lasting solution.
Emotions play an important role in this type of back pain.

I am able to key this letter in with my own hands

Says Vanishree K. Control Systems Group, ISRO, Bangalore

Thanks to Dr. Bhojraj. Most of us take things for granted, and only when something happens, we realize with shock how much we ought to be thankful for all the mercies big and small. I had sprained my neck a few weeksback and didn’t take it seriously until the pain persisted and increased so much that my hands and fingers started to protest. I was in pain constantly even while I slept. I was not able to do anything, even to take my mind off from the pain, leave alone concentration. No amount of pain killers, muscle relaxant, gels and balms provided any relief but only increased and I was scared if I have to move around with a neck collar or some such appendage. It was then I turned to Dr. Bhojraj for help. Two consultations were all I needed for my pain of 3 weeks to vanish - almost 90% in just 10 days. I am ever thankful to Dr. Bhojraj for his wonderful service and for patiently listening to our complaints no matter how busy or occupied he is.

Course Director’s Comments:

My ISRO collegues have been giving very good feedback for many of their ailments treated with acupuncture. It is really encouraging for our research team.

Attacks of’Wheezing minimised by Acupuncture treatment.

Says Mrs. C.P. Anuradha Gupta. Bangalore. Tel : 2667 9292

I am suffering from wheezing since 30 years. I have been on inhalers since 10 years. Recently I came to know about Acupuncture along with Acupressure. I approached Dr. Sujata Palyam for treatment by these methods. I have taken treatments three times since 3 months. I certainly feel much better now and the use of inhalers has greatly come down. I feel more energetic as the attacks of wheezing has come down. This drugless method is definetly a better cure for many ailments since it has no side effects.

Course Director’s Comments:

Our research on breathing problems will continue in Jayanagar for the next 6 months. Those registered with Acupressure Club are requested to continue taking treatment either at Jayanagar or at Rajajinagar.
