IN T R O D U C T O R Y N O T E:S drawings in this booklet were personally drawn by the Imperator after careful study of the best methods of making plain the principles involved. The diagrams and illustrations arenotclaimed to be exact representations of any organ, vessel or feature of the human body but are schematic illustrations
explaining the principles in the clearest manner possible. The text was also prepared by the Imperator. D e p a r tme n t of Pub l ic at ion .
EXPL A N A T I ON OF C H A R T I .
Digestion and Nutrition
Th is chart, in its mechanical, diagram atic form, presents asimple and understandable explanation of the process of Digestion and Nutrition.
F ood — and l iq u i ds — are tak en i nt o t he mouth where, whi l ebeing crushed, masticated and rendered small in p articles— likein a crush ing de vice at the bottom of a grinde r— a certain amountof saliva mixe s with it to prep are it for digestion. It passes thephary nx in swallowing and goes down the esophagus (or throat)to the stomach.
In the stomach the work of chu rning takes place. The l ittlevalve or open ing from the stomach to the Intestine s, c alled the
“ Pyl oru s ” remai ns part ly c los ed dur i ng t he churni ng process .After the stomach has expanded and turned the food from side toside and mixed it well, the “ Py loru s” autom atically opens (andon ly when the prop er time has come !) and the food passes intothe beg inning of the small Intestines. On the way down theIntestines there flows into the mixed food some bile from the gallbl adder (t hrough. t he bi l e duct ) and a l so s ome “ Pancreat ic f l ui d”from the pancreas.
These two fluids, m ixing w ith the food, help to “ cut” the foodand dissolve it into its prima ry “ negative elements.”
As soon as these elements enter the small Intestines they areabsorbed into the vessels which carry this negative nutrition tothe Live r, separating the fat to be sent separately through theThoraci c Duct .
N| Tho se elements or parts of the food wh ich are not absorb ed yand are considered “ waste” leave the small Intestines and enterthe large Intestine called the Colon, which almost encircles thesma ll Intestines. From the Colon the waste passes from the body.

EXPLANATION OF CHART 2.
Nutrition and Blood Circulation
The pu rpose of this diagram is two-fold. It is unu sua lly clear
and expl anat ory— es peci a l ly for our work .
Fir st of all, we see how the nu trition from food is taken into
the circu latory system. At the side of the chart we see the vessels
which lead from the Intestines. These connect with the Liver .
In this way all nutrition from the food we eat passes to the Liver.
Here it is fi ltered, purified and formed into what we c all “ Nega
t iv e El ement s ” of t he bl ood. - F rom 't k e L i v er t hese “ N egat i v e
Elements” pass into the principal vein/carrying the blood to the
heart.
How ever, al l fatty elements— which are separated from food
in the process of digestion and assimilation in the Intestines, do
not enter the Live r, but pass through the so-called “ Tho racic
Du ct ” and go di rect l y to the heart t o form “ L ym ph El emen t s . ”
This is shown plainly on the chart.
Now the “ Neg ative Eleme nts,” forming negative blood, enter
the right side of the heart and from there they are sent through
the two “ pulm onary arteries” to the Lun gs to be made positive.
That is, each negative blood cell is sent to the Lungs to receive
a Positive Po larity ; and from the Lun gs this vitalized blood
return s to the left side of the heart and there it is pum ped out
through the arteries to all parts of the body. As this Positive
blood, vitalized, travels through the system it uses up its vitality
or Positive Polari ly and again becomes only Negative cells or
Negative blood. Whe re it changes from positive to Negative it
does its greatest work in what are called “c ap il laries. ” The
Negative blood must therefore return once more to the heart and
from there be sent again to the Lungs to be vitalized with a newPositive Po larity. Th is is a continuous process.

EXPLANATION OF CHART 3.
Principal Arteries
In our use of the blood for healing purposes as well as for all
mystic or psych ic purposes, we deal with the vitalized or Po si
tive blood. Th is is the blood which travels throug h the Arte ries
of the human b ody. Arte ries carry the blood— the vitalized bloodfrom the heart to every part of the body to car ry on the con struc
tive work of nature. Veins, on the other hand, return the devit
alized blood to the heart, and do not concern us so greatly.
The diagram on chart 3, shows only the princ ipal arteries.
From the upper part of the heart rises the great Aortic Arc h
(indicated by the figure 1. See also diagram on chart 2). From
this Arch or large vessel, branches all the arteries supplying the
great amount of vitalized blood to the body. 1
Every artery carrying blood to the most minute part of the
body, joins one of the princ ipal arteries shown on this diagram .
In o ur w ork, whenever it is necessary to know the source of blood
for any small artery, one need only refer to any medical or anatomical book, or dictionary, and see what princip al artery it con
nects with, and then trace it to the p rincip al artery on this dia
gram.

EXPLANATION OF CHART 4.
General Nervous System
The purpose of this chart is to show, in a mechanical fashion,
the arrang eme nt of the vertebrae of the spine and the location of
the nervous systems.
In the upper diagrarii f ive vertebrae with their ribs are drawnme chan ically as though they were sections of some metal frame
work of a piece of ma chiner y. The centre square s represent the
vertebrae while attached to either side of these vertebrae are the
ribs. The vertebrae represent the sections of a spina l column
(see Chart 6).
Through the centre of the vertebrae passes the spinal nerve
cord— a heavy cord consisting of nerves,— the top of which is the
Medulla Oblongata ,(as shown in the upper diagram on Chart 8)
and is connected with the brain. Th is cord is the centre of the
general nervous system.
Bra nch ing out from this cord, between each vertebra, are
smaller nerves, called spinal nerves, which connect on each side
with the Sympathetic Trunks.
There are two Sym pathetic Tru nk s, one on each side of the
vertebrae of the spina l column (on the inside of the ribs) and
running parallel with the middle spinal cord, as shown in the
diagram.
Each Sympathethic T run k consists of a heavy cord of many
nerves,- with “ Ga ng lia” opposite nearly every rib. From each
Ganglion are two nerves, called “ Ra m i,” connecting the spinal
nerves to the Sympathetic System. And, from each “ Ga nglion ”
are Sympathe tic nerves goin g to vario us plexu ses of organs,
muscles or vessels of the body.

EXPLANATION OF CHART 5.
Details of Sympathetic System
In the upper dra win g we see a section of the .hum an body
opened and the organs and m uscles removed to show the Sym
p ath etic Trunk C o rd o n th e right side of the vertebrae.
Just beneath each rib we see the spinal nerve running parallelwith the rib. From these spin al n erves we also see the two
“ Ra m i” uniting w ith the Gang lia of the heavy Sympathetic
T r u n k .
A few vessels are also shown, and it w ill be noticed how the
Sympathetic Nerves from the various Ga ng lia branch out over
the wa ll of the oesophagu s, the rig ht bronc hus an d the aorta
artery. This shows how a “ plexus” covers the wall of a vessel or
organ (as also shown on Chart 4.)
The lower diagram shows an enlarged view of a section of the
Sympathetic Trunk, giving an exact picture of the Ganglia, their
size, form and location.
(It will prove interesting to the deep student to read in varioustext books on the “ Nervous System” the diversified explanations
and theories of the purposes and formation of “ Ga ng lia” and
“ N e u r o n e s. ” )

EXPLANATION OF CHART 6.
Names of Vertebrae and Nerves
The Spinal Column consists of 25 or 26 pieces in the average
body. The 25th piece— at the bottom of the colum n— may have
the 26th section loose ly a ttache d to the end of it, or this 26th
section may form part of the 25th. How ever, orig ina lly, at some
time, the large 25th section consisted of 9 definite divisions, each
having the same purpose as each of the separate vertebra above.
Therefore we continue to look upon the Spinal Colum n as con
sisting of 33 sections (that is, counting the so-called “ atlas” as
the f irst section). Upon the f irst section— the “ Atla s” rests the
sku ll, which , from one viewp oint, forms anothe r section of the
spine, and would therefore make a 35th section.
Howeve r, using the plan or diagram of the spine as usua lly
adopted by all text books on Anatomy, we have, as shown in the
two diagra ms opposite, 33 to 34 sections or d ivision s. Thro ugh
this Spine runs the Spinal Cord of the general or central nervous
system. An d branchin g, out from between each vertebra or section of the Spine, are two Spin al Nerves. These come from the
Spinal Cord run ning down through the centre of the Vertebrae,
and pass righ t and left from the Spine. Jo inin g to these Spina l
nerves are the two “ Ra m i” on each side. (Re fer to the lower
diagram on Chart 4.)
In our work we have a “ Nerve N ote” and a “ Music Note*’ for
each of the Spina l Nerves between the Vertebrae. These are
plainly shown on the diagram opposite, as well as the universally
adopted names for each vertebra.

with their extensions leading to Plexuses numbered i, 2, 3, 4, 5,
6, 7, 8*and 9, and to two other Gan glia numbered iA and n , and
to one spina l nerve num bered 10. We also note that from the
second Rami one Sympathetic Nerve reaches out independent of
the Ganglion and connects with the nerve ending at iA.
The 4th, 5th and 6th Ram i connect w ith the M iddle Cerv ical
Ganglion and this Ganglion has two nerves extending from it
leading to Plexuses No. 12 and 13.
The 7th and 8th Rami connect with the Inferior Cervical
Gan glion from w hich 5 nerves extend leading to Plexuses No. 13,
18, and to spinal nerves No. 17, 19 and 20, and indirectly to
spinal nerve No. 22, which connects with Plexus No. 23.
Between the Midd le Ce rvical Ga nglion and the Inferior

EXPLANATION OF CHART 8.
Details of Head and Neck
Reference to the upper drawing on the opposite page will help
the student to understand the location of the Vertebrae in the
neck. One should note that in the neck the vertebrae lie far from
the surface and cannot be felt as is possible in the thorax of thebody. The 7th and 8th Cervica l Vertebra e are usua lly the f irst
to come near the surface of the body. The one most pro mine nt
in its projection in the neck or just below the neck is the 1st
