What Covid-19 Has Exposed About The Science of Medicine?

Unless we go back to basics, we’re screwed.

Covid-19 has brought to the surface many distortions that existed well within the science of medicine and the healthcare institutions long before it existed.

Institutional Codependency

Covid has exposed the fact that our institutional healthcare services are not equipped to deal with an epidemic.

Unfortunately human beings have become so blindly dependent on them for any slightest abnormality that arises in their bodies, leading into a vicious cycle where they always come back to the institution to be “fixed” and patched over again and again rather than treated for their underlying root causes that had brought forth the state of dis-ease in the first place.

Unprecedented pressure

The above, unwittingly, has led to unprecedented pressure within institutions - a vicious cycle of codependency that is neither of value to the patient nor to the institution (unless it does that for strictly business purposes).

The direct result of medical institutions that have never educated the individual about preventive medicine, which is the true and only form of medicine. They’ve never done so because doctors are no longer educated about it in academia, as from the perspective of our educational paradigms, it's not "sexy" enough.

If they had been educated long ago, they wouldn’t have had to deal with patients constantly coming back for any inconvenience.

What doctors don't know is that right now they are beginning to reap what they have sown many years ago, because this unprecedented pressure, in the near future, will bring about the collapse of all our medical institutions.

Speeding Up Development Of Physicians in Academia

In turn, this fraught pressure spills over into all other areas. For example, in academia they have been taking comfort in a lazy approach to compensate for the shortage of doctors by hastening the development process of new physicians. Interns skip essential experience to fill in the shortage of doctors.

This has created an inverse training experience. For example, physicians new to pediatrics are treating children with mental health concerns daily, but don’t see nearly as many of the conditions that define pediatrics like contagious, spreadable bronchiolitis or flu.

"I just don't know anything about treating eating disorders..."

One of the interns told about his anxiety.

"And now it's just routine."

Ultimately this leads to incorrect and irresponsible care despite the good intentions, which then leads to a vicious cycle of massive inefficiencies whereby unnecessary errors in judgment lead to errors in misdiagnosis, which then lead to accidents and malpractice (unnecessarily sick patients), which then leads to lawsuits (more than 250,000 people die every year from medical errors and negligence, and climbing).

This makes medical negligence the third leading cause of death in the USA. This approach has resulted in the emergence of misdiagnoses that has not changed since the 1930s.

Bureaucracy Has Eaten Away the Core of Institutionalized Healthcare

In turn, medical institutions design strategic mechanisms to defend against potential lawsuits. Therefore, they incur the potential added costs within their treatments' price models leading them to become overly expensive; an arm and a leg for the average patient who has now gone through their life savings as an attempt to retrieve their “health”.

Hospitals also devise extra bureaucratic means - doctors and nurses spend an awful amount of time on filling papers - that take away from the core evaluation and prognosis. A defective system that forces doctors to spend five minutes with X number of patients a day to maintain a bottom line.

It’s become a bad system. It’s not the exception anymore but has become the rule.

Hospital Pressure Juxtaposed To Life

Covid has exposed the poor decision-making that stems from a very skewed formula that juxtaposes hospital pressure to the health and well-being, the economy and the daily functionality of a society.

Over the past two years, humanity has taken tourism, education, commerce, manufacturing, supply-chain cycle, entertainment, culture, dining and basically any type of life activity and sector, downsizing them into a linear equation in lieu to hospital load .

But this is an ineffective formula and over time creates a lose-lose situation. In the future, any time we will have a rise in infections, the lockdown lever will be lifted, creating a domino effect in which the disruptions of the entire life process will be brought to a halt, creating a compounded adverse effect.

This is really not a sustainable strategy.

This mentality, which repeated itself over and over again has complicated things further. It has created inefficiencies that in turn have led to the deprivation of the individual and of the communities. Something that is akin to sickening and killing human beings slowly but surely just in another way. Their lives have been destabilized for years to come.

On the other hand, inhumane pressure will continue to be subjected on hospital staff rendering them to fall ill, collapse from stress and to become more error prone in their line of work.

Look at it like this: it's like going for a heart operation, but instead of eradicating the fat and plaque that have accumulated in the ventricles, they decide to block the aorta from dispersing blood to the entire body.

Now that doesn’t make sense, does it? It doesn’t make sense to asphyxiate the entire body in order to save the heart?

Medical Institutions Are Not Prepared For The Future

I keep saying that Covid-19 is a blessing in disguise.

After all, in any crisis there is a seed of transformation. Otherwise what’s the “purpose” of a crisis to exist, as a humanistic theme, if it doesn’t bear an opportunity to gain experience. An opportunity for change and progress.

And so the blessing in disguise is that it forced humanity to reevaluate and reexamine its current (archaic) paradigms from which those measures are derived, in order to be able to be prepared for the future.

It revealed to us that our institutionalized healthcare is not equipped to handle the burden. And so it carries with it a warning for the future, when a real pandemic will reach our doorstep; one that doesn't require constant testing to know we have it, or 24/7 media campaigns to remind us it exists.

And yet, none of the policy makers and leaders all around the world have really taken the time to think outside the box; to provide solutions that relieve the pressure from hospitals (by the way, there are solutions that already exist, which have been proven to be effective).

And they had a lot of time to think over the last two years

By to focusing exclusively on trying to “conquer a pandemic” and “lower the spread” in haste - impossible feats that have non basis in reality and basic understanding of epidemiology - have prevented humanity from the necessary things it needed to establish in being able to tackle future pandemics.

Humanity has inflated the phenomenon to an Armageddon status while in reality it was a test drive for the next time. It’s something worth pondering. And because it has constantly maintained stubbornness, insisting it was an Armageddon, it has prevented itself from examine the foul foundations that underlie our institutional healthcare.

If they had used simple common sense and maintained calmness in the first place, they wouldn't be so paranoid with and lockdown trigger 'happy. What they did do is (and you have to be really "creative" to be able to do that) is that they have created conditions that have led to having greater shortage of medical staff than before Covid.

The current approach does everything it can to avoid the worrisome warning signs. An approach that invests all energy and resources in trying to keep things as they are; masking the fact that no one really has a clue how Covid-19 works; sweeping the dirt under the carpet; deciding how much money to print and throw from above, expecting problems to solve themselves; finding a scapegoat that can always be turned into a punching bag (the unvaccinated) in order to avoid accountability and responsibility, and repeatedly impose the same restrictions, which don't really work, with the assumption that each time they will lead to a different result.

The definition of insanity.

A Twisted Relationship With Death And Dying

Covid has exposed the lack of understanding about the true nature of death and dying.

The fear of death and its counterpoint, the obsession with preventing it, have created the opposite effect in how we approach healthcare. Inadvertently have created more perfect conditions for death and dying to ensue.

It is so innate in us. We revere 'success' or 'failure' in our consciousness by judging any fatal event by the number of deaths, but rarely do we give any second thought or concern to the numbers of injured. Because it is the injured and the sick who are the ones who will spend the rest of their lives with these morbidities and their consequences.

I’m not undermining death and the repercussions it has on family members in terms of pain and suffering. But we tend to forget that the dead are no longer with us. We tend to forget that life is terminal for all of us and that death is an intrinsic part of the cycle of life.

And so the time has come for us to balance the scale and realize that as much as we try to sanctify the dead, so we must do with the living. To remember that by our excessive fear of death, and the panicked assumption that we must prevent it at all costs, we dehumanize the living.

Our consciousness is all about preserving and extending life at all costs while completely neglecting to include the other side of the binary: The quality of life.

What's worth living if the quality of life is diminished to a point of pain and suffering?

“Sure, let’s connect a human in a vegetative state to a machine for months on end so we can say that we have saved a life.”

There is no point to life on this plane if there is no quality of life attached to it.

Extending life has to come together with the quality of life. They are bound one with the other and cannot be separated. The moment we separate them and chase only after one of them we create a distortion.

Another distortion to add to our growing list of them; a good example for another mutually exclusive formula (in a vacuum) that distorts the reality of things.

By the paralyzing fear of death, so pulsating in our minds by the never-ending loop of fear-mongering propaganda, we have dehumanized so many healthy human beings with the assumption that we were helping them.

Throughout the pandemic, we had patients left completely alone in an isolated box and completely cut off from relatives - the minimal warmth and humane contact - all, in the name of "preventing death at all costs".

We have perpetuated far more stress and other abnormalities, which have brought forth the perfect bedding ground for complications to ensue, and a higher chance for the body to succumb to illness, whether from the viral infection or any other culprit.

All, for the cry out that death must be prevented. It’s to show the perversion of what preventing death has become: a selfish narcissistic indulgence in self aggrandizement at all costs. It has become about the caretaker, riding the trip of being a “savior”, rather than the person who is actually suffering.

Death count has become a demagoguery used by the mainstream media in order to buy subordination from the populace in bulk; that inhumane, draconian measures are necessary

Or any rhetoric of a politician or expert is twisted with idle phrases of  "saving lives" has become a cheap currency, used awfully too much, to buy (contrived) compassion from the public, with which it can substantiate its complacency.

The irony is that when one wants to terminate THEIR OWN LIFE, to end the pain and suffering and do it in a civilized manner - such as euthanasia, - the collective won’t allow it. They'd need to jump through hoops and hurdles to be able to do something for their own sake.

We dehumanize the dead and dying because we are absolutely convinced that we have progressed, while in reality have lost any (w)holistic understanding about the true nature of being, which includes in it also the true nature of death and dying.

We don’t understand death because we don’t know how to live.

We have sterilized the healing business because we are absolutely identified with mental formulas in favor of organic and basic principles of medical care. No longer are we aware that these things are absolutely imperative for a healthy state of mind and for the benefit of the healing process.

Statistics First, Reality After

Covid has revealed that the science of medicine is only preoccupied with organizing the collective by seeing how a certain disease affects the population. It does not, however, sees it from the point of view of the individual who is actually the one experiencing it.

Yes, we do need that former perspective in order to come up with methodologies in order to organize society better, but in our times the latter has been completely forgotten. And it must never be forgotten. They go hand in hand.

When an adverse condition rises up, that does not align with the expectation from a medical treatment, such as a drug or a vaccine, the individual becomes a coma in a statistical chart. So is the fellow individual and so on and so forth.

In other words, their condition is written down in a report which is then collated with thousands of other reports to become a statistic from which public institutions derive their conclusions in organizing the population.

So many suffer from Long Covid and from adverse effects to the vaccine, millions of them. And yet, their particular disposition is always second best because they’re considered an anomaly within the statistics. And the anomaly is not really important. What matters is reaching a critical mass in order to claim “success”.

When it comes down to mitigating a pandemic, one’s particular disposition is not interesting. It’s only interesting when it’s a statistic. And yet, it’s the individual who is always left to their own devices; who ends up suffering alone.

This creates a distortion where the specific problem the individual is dealing with, is always second best because they’re considered an anomaly within the statistics. And the anomaly is not really important. What matters is reaching a critical mass in order to claim “success rates”.

All of this is a derivative of a false illusion that hypnotizes modern society:that every dilemma on the mundane plane can be controlled from the top down by technology, downsizing every life aspect into linear graphs, pushing a button on a tablet. An illusion that circumspect the collective as a cohesive organisms that can be manipulated and controlled d form afar, while completely disregards the only real components that make it- the individual.

Theory Over Practice

As a result, we have basically reversed the roles of theory and practice, where the former has become much higher in the hierarchy than the latter. “The data”, as statistics, is more important than the practice itself.

The bedrock of modern science has become all about the theory first and practice later. A theory from which conclusions are derived that supposedly are there to establish a solid foundation for decision making and treatment strategies. However, under the radar, it has become faulty.

In other words, as a field doctor, if bubble gum is found to be working against malaria, you bet that that doctor will use bubble gum to treat malaria patients. Yes, it would defy all logic; yes, it would defy theory and research papers; yes, it would defy all kinds of linear graphs displayed on a retina screen in an air-conditioned office in some ivory tower high above the field, but the point is that what works on the field is golden and takes precedence over theoretical rules.

But doctors, and their respective treatments, are being blocked by health corporations and governmental institutions. Doctors who want to use effective treatments are threatened, their treatments are not approved and their information is removed from the internet.

In turn, the mainstream media substantiate such strategy in order to persuade rather than inform the public, and to empower both patients and doctors to use whatever works.

The real science of medicine has been completely forgotten which is all about finding the most effective way to empower and help people heal. The goal was never about being righteous about one particular treatment regimen or paradigm and force feed it down the throat.

Peer-Reviewed Studies - the (New) Holy Grail

Covid has revealed that the theory, underlined by scientific papers, in the form of peer-reviewed studies, have become a form of unquestionable authority. The practice, on the other hand, is deemed questionable, therefore, not as important.

In fact, COVID publications appear to be representative of the literature at large: a few really important papers and a whole bunch of stuff that isn’t or shouldn’t be read.

By their very nature, scientific studies look at things in isolation. There is no system that can organize them in a way that preserves context: the ability to merge the important details from each study into a broader whole; to be able to see the bigger picture.

As a result there is an abundance and oversaturation of redundant information that leads to confusions rather than efficiency and clarity. In 2020 alone, a staggering 200,000 COVID-19 papers were published, of which just a tiny proportion has ever been read or put into practice. The vast, vast majority of them are useless, because they are what’s called a Level III [i.e. personal opinion] evidence only studies.

Research literature, when stripped of its jargon, is just as susceptible to repetition, triviality, pandering, and pettiness as other forms of communication. Many papers serve no purpose, advance no agenda, may not be correct, make no sense, and are poorly read. But they are required for promotion. Publication metrics have become a sad stand-in for quality in academia.

Universities judge their research faculty not so much by the quality of their discoveries as by the number of papers they’ve placed in scholarly journals, and how prestigious those journals happen to be. Scientists joke (and complain) that this relentless pressure to pad their résumés often leads to flawed or unoriginal publications.

Take a bunch of ambitious people and tell them to get as many papers published as possible while still technically passing muster through peer review and what do you think is going to happen?

Of course the system gets gamed: The results from one experiment get sliced up into a dozen papers, statistics are massaged to produce more interesting results, and conclusions become exaggerated.

The Righteous Science

The redundancy and oversaturation of studies has brought the advent of science “Tetris”: That is, one can find any study and the suits one's opinion. It doesn't matter which side of the binary the opinion belongs to.

When policy makers enact their policies, those studies that counter their decisions mean nothing. The formation of policies is based primarily on a belief that one's opinion can be matched with a corresponding study later, and by that, turn it into a fact. It has inadvertently led to confirmation bias; filtering the data to suit one’s opinion or direction.

The modern scientist is no longer trained to give all of the information to help others to judge the value of their contribution. Instead, what’s given is information that leads to judgment in one particular direction or another. It becomes an effort to persuade rather than inform, and the information presented withholds either essential context or what doesn’t “fit.

As a result, the constant repetition of these disconnected half-truths are turned into “absolute truths” known as “The Science”.

The cumulative effect of all that - what we get on the surface - is the novel phenomena as the ’Righteous Science’: A science that creates a narrative, which is in accordance with a particular narrow-track opinion / direction. And once the narrative is established, contrary views, facts and science must be shoved down the memory hole.

But good public health policies balance both individual rights and community needs. Therefore, it is paramount to recognize and respect diverse social and cultural perspectives of healthcare.

Unable To See The Bigger Picture

Covid has exposed that modern science has no way to understand the consequential derivatives of so-called 'scientific measures' have on other areas of life, outside of scientific view.

We’re past the point where scientific expertise is the main skill set the world requires. ‘Following the science’ has become a dogma used by country leaders and policy makers to set a policy.

But institutionalized science has no legitimate way of assessing the public’s tolerance for certain measures and intrusions. Nor does it have the ability to weigh competing and contrary claims of political and economic liberty against public-health priorities.

Coupled now with the confluence of science with governmental authority, unable to draw the line between human individual rights and between the health of a collective, it is open to interpretation and can invite abuse, respective to the fear and agitation of policy makers.

Part II: Big Pharma & The Other Side

---

In order to be able to understand how the pharmaceutical complex came to be such an insidious part of our life, we must go back in time to understand the basic factors that have allowed it to morph into such existence.

Allopathy

The first factor is the methodology on which medical science is built upon.

Modern medicine, as we know it, is all based on allopathy, which in and of itself is a derivative of the human mind that circumspect 3D phenomena (the human body) into a 2D linear equation. 

Allopathic doctors (M.D.) are trained to look at the body just as a butcher sees a cow: as a jigsaw puzzle. They are very good at deconstructing the ‘whole’ into a multitude of components, then looking at those components that make that ‘whole’ separately and individually in isolation, i.e. the lab and/or within simulated computer models.

And there is no problem in doing any of that.

There is no wrongdoing studying the components that make that larger whole, however, it becomes a distortion when it is followed by the erroneous and disastrous assumption that what has been observed separately, can be projected back onto the whole - the human body.

Why?

Because the human body is built on the principle of synergy in which the whole is always greater than the sum of its parts.

From then on they are trained in skill sets by which they have basically perfected the cutting and drugging business, revering them to be the hallmarks of medicine and healing.

Osteopathy, on the other hand, is closer to the true science of medicine because it views the body as "whole"; from a point of view that is compatible with the principles of nature.

Osteopathic physicians (D.O.) practice a ‘whole person’ approach, treating the entire person rather than just symptoms. They help patients develop attitudes and lifestyles that don’t just fight illness but help prevent it, too.

DOs and MDs have similar training, requiring four years of study in the basic clinical sciences and the successful completion of licensing exams. However, DOs bring something extra to the practice of medicine.

And yet, they too, are deeply limited because the institutions they’re employed in are not accepting their approach and the noninvasive solutions they can offer.

Sometime, 150 years ago or so, the dominant paradigm of medicine was better suited to osteopathy. As time passed, allopathy strengthened its hold and moved further and further away from its counterpart, eventually becoming the main dominant paradigm and the skillset in the treatment of diseases.

Osteopathy (O.D.), on the other hand, lagged behind it to a point where nowadays many osteopaths are excluded and shunned from the scientific community by name calling their métier "pseudoscience" as a means to underlie the irreproachable reign of allopathy.

If we lived in a sensible world, osteopathy would have been the dominant paradigm encompassing our institutionalized healthcare while having allopathy as a peripheral “toolset” that can complement the predominant approach when needed. If I could quantify that it would be 80% osteopathy and 20% allopathy. But as we can see the roles have been reversed quite disproportionately.

In the next section I’ll be showing why they were reversed (hint: osteopathy is not profitable).

Symptomatology: The Holy Grail Of Modern Medicine

In the allopathic paradigm, where the 'whole' is dissected to its multiple, separate parts, over time has led to the formation of another distortion; symptomatology, which at present, has become the primary focus and objective in defining diseases; revered to be the cause while in reality are only an effect.

This tradition has led to a “disease”, in and of itself, called Compartmentalization: The addiction to the invention of names, labels and endless taxonomies for any slight variation of an effect, leading to a reality where modern science can no longer see the forest for the trees.

Covid actually revealed that there is an enormous amount of data, in the form of various different names for symptomatology, but because it hasn't been collected and aggregated in a smart way that allows to see a broader picture, it poses more problems down the line than added value.

In other words, the focus and expenditure of energy and resources goes to building and perfecting tools in order to organize the data, rather than on building a unified field systems that can make sense of it all.

Out of that obsessive study of symptomatology medical science comes forth with strategies to treat those symptoms that have arisen on the surface, declaring them to be the underlying cause. Then, it follows up on that by devising all kinds of medical procedures such as drugs, cutting and radiation to treat those symptoms.

What we get in the end, is an array of different diseases which are in essence the same disease. But nonetheless, because they were given a different name - since their origination point or culprit is different - arrays and arrays of redundancies ensue: Redundant research, redundant testing and redundant development of treatments and medications - funding that could have been used more wisely.

Out of that we get an over-saturation of drugs that indirectly has led to the proliferation of one of the biggest “side-effects”: Big Pharma. A cancer that has eaten the very core of what the true science of medicine.

But everything is the result of the ill foundations of allopathy revering symptomatology as its hallmark; the obsessive compulsive need to give a name to every variation of symptoms and immediately bind it with a drug as a knee-jerk reflex.

The Pharmaceutical / Government Complex

Over the past 100 years medical science has become well integrated with government and private corporations.

It had brought the advent of a behemoth “mutant“: An insidious conglomerate made by governments, private corporations and medical institutions that over time has infiltrated through every nook and corner of our lives.

The largest funders of medical and infectious disease research worldwide are the people who head the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) in the US. Across the ocean joins them the  Welcome Trust , one of the world's largest non-governmental funders of Medical research.

In academia, receiving a grant from any of those institutions can make or breaks a career, so scientists have a strong incentive to stay on the right side of these institutions.

Scientists, naturally, will hesitate before putting themselves in a position of conflict with the director of the NIH, which has an annual scientific research budget of $42.9 billion. It’s also unwise to upset the director of the NIAID, with a $6.1 billion annual budget for infectious disease research, or the director of the Welcome Trust, with a $1.5 billion annual budget.

Powerful funding agencies like these actually funnel research dollars to almost every well-known epidemiologist, immunologist, and virologist in the United States and Great Britain.

How did we get here?

How did we get to a situation where taxpayers fund research just to bring in profits for the pharmaceutical industry and all the various patent holders, including the government itself?

In large part, it goes back to the implementation of the Bayh-Dole Act of 1980, which allows the beneficiaries of federal grants to file patents on work derived from federally funded research. The idea was that the economy would benefit by allowing scientists to be entrepreneurs first, rather than simply publishing their research.

This piece of legislation has undermined health care by bringing the patent office, the FDA and CDC into an unholy trinity that serves and promotes private pharmaceutical concerns. So, what we have now is an insidious funding loop. Corporations and pharma lobby to get people elected. Once they're elected, the lobbyists flow an enormous amount of money into the various NIH programs. In the case of NIAID (National Institute of Allergies and Infection Diseases), since 1984, $191 billion have gone through the agency.

As a matter of fact allergies and infectious diseases have increased over 60 times since that time. Yet somehow a failed agency has gotten $191 billion to solve a problem that is getting worse every single year. The problem is, it's not a company. It’s a money laundering agency. It moves public funds through the hands of a federal agency into the research laboratories, which ultimately are going to conduct research that is then licensed back to the benefactors, which are the pharmaceutical companies that paid to get people into office in the first place.

So, this is a revolving door problem, and the Bayh-Dole Act created an insidious incentive that said that the only research that was going to be conducted was going to be research that ultimately would flow back to the pharmaceutical industry and create juggernauts, where the risk of R&D was taken by the public and the benefit for that R&D was taken by the private.

During the last few decades the global village economy developed to a point where economies of different countries became connected and intertwined to one another. And so the above model was simply copied and implemented in most of the developed countries. Today, almost every country works with the "recipe".

The pharmaceutical companies have developed so many tentacles in governmental bodies that today it has already become a metastatic cancer that affects the entire world. We, citizens, no matter what part of the world we live in, are experiencing it like no other time before. We are the Guinea pigs of such gluttonous conglomerate

Science, though it often is, should never be the plaything of the powerful or used to control the less powerful simply for the accumulation of power and profit. It is through this perversion of science that science and its practitioners lose the credibility they must have for science to continue to be used effectively in the world.

The Other Side:

We are equally responsible.

For anything to exist we need two to tango. It's just the underlying reality. We are equally responsible for all of this mess by the fact that we allow such paradigms to ensue and exist in our consciousness..

We live in times where we have traded self-awareness and the natural connection to ourselves in favor of technology and datasets on which we blindly rely on, supposedly, to know about ourselves.

The obsession with providing the correct prognosis has become the main focus. However, it usually serves the doctor more than the patient. But the correct prognosis is only a small fraction of the value that should be given to the individual.

In fact, the science of medicine has become an elaborate diagnostic system as a "match-maker" of a ready-made medical procedure; surgery, radiotherapy and drugs - to prognosis.

Now, I have no problem with that. This skill set is very effective in certain cases, such as trauma. But this is human engineering. At least let's call it what it is. Let's not pretend it's human medicine, shall we?!

At least let’s climb down the high horse of vanity that just because we get to play with sophisticated vocabulary and be overly dependent on machines, does not mean knowledge; does not mean awareness and does not mean wisdom.

What happened over the years is that this (engineering) tradition overflowed and replaced the entire (true) medical profession, but has still retained its name. In other words, in our present time we value human engineering to be "the true science of medicine."

Car-Shop Consciousness

As a result, modern medicine has become a “car shop” where human beings go to in order to be “fixed” and “patched over”, rather than treated for their underlying causes that had brought them the state of dis-ease in the first place.

More often than not, when a doctor faces a physiological / psychological dilemma in a patient, in which the underlying cause is missing to them, they will not admit that they don't know. What they do instead is, they revert to their first go-to-solution;  administering drugs, and more drugs. If that avenue doesn’t seem to be working then cutting becomes their next favorable go-to lifeline solution.

We ourselves maintain those great inefficiencies by holding onto these belief systems with great fervency:

That a doctor is such and such in the hierarchy of authority; that we don’t know; that we can’t know because we didn’t go to school; that we must hold a paper diploma to know about our bodies and ourselves - all those mental shackles we hold onto that prevent us from seeing things as they are: That our well being is not dependent on anything outside ourselves.

Indeed, over the years such belief system has done exactly the opposite, encouraging complacency: The assumption that one can keep all their problems and their unhealthy lifestyle because they know that when things go south they can always be “fixed” and patched over at the 11th hour.

It’s really tragic. For years now, human beings have been so efficiently conditioned to neglect and destroy their bodies; to continue their transgressions, their sickly lifestyle, the decay of body and decadence of mind. The average worldly, homogenized physique is becoming more and more incredibly obese and decrepit: The turkey necks, the dowagers humps, the prolapsed bellies - all, already showing in young age.

People of all ages get around by carts because they are unable to walk. In fact, they want to be in carts instead of walking with the perfection of a body that was given to them. The hollow and desolate temples are the monuments of sloth, gluttony, and greed. The holy shrines that are not even given a chance to shine their light but rather are hastened to become homogenized so quickly.

It doesn’t end there, their spirit and faculties of mind are submerged in poisoned waters. Human beings are encouraged to always look out for and point a finger at anything outside their lives as responsible for their own dilemmas.

They are encouraged to indulge in narcissism, that everything must always be about them, to exalt victimization and turn it into an art form; to milk the system, getting things for free and still complain about getting things for free; to exalt criminality, ritualize it and turn it into martyrdom.

It’s the sickliness of mind and spirit that keeps them molded to think alike, be alike, to talk the same way, to fear the same way so they can be controlled better.

Instead of being empowered and educated about treating their bodies with respect and reverence, to prevent them from deteriorating so fast they’re encouraged to keep all their transgressions in exchange for blind reliance on patching solutions that only adhere their codependency for the rest of their lives.

As long as we are a “returning customer”, as long as we medicate, as long as we can keep paying our dues, thinking that by having the “best health insurance one can afford", means we're healthy; as long as we do all that, we will be told everything we want to hear: “how wonderful, and how good a person we are” by following the edicts of the new religion so blindly.

They’d even lie to us and twist it to look like we’re a role model for body-positivity movement - everything, - just to maintain our escapism and self denial.

Sure, stay obese, diabetic, and chronically allergic.

I’m sorry but it must be said.

No one points out these things because we’ve become so overly sensitive, plagued by the disease of political correctness, that has made us escape confrontation with the truth.

I don't have a problem medical procedures or with medications per se. I have a problem with the fact that they were put on the altar of healthcare, defined as the ultimate solutions, when in reality they are only peripheral means.

For me it is a crime when humanity hangs all its hopes and relies on peripheral tools while presenting them as absolute solutions. In doing so, it actually misleads people that "their health is in their hands". However, in reality only provides them with a false sense of security in the present at the cost of an uncertain future.

All this to show that we are responsible because we have been treating our bodies with disrespect (by the held belief we are respecting them). And so we subconsciously allow anyone else to disrespect our bodies.

Epilogue

I understand that my words are not the consensus, may be provocative and are not politically correct - I understand that. But my point in all this is that Covid is actually a wake-up call to see that the answer is not somewhere outside the individual, but lies within their bodies and the supreme intelligence that runs them.

We will not get another chance to look back and draw the necessary conclusions.

Covid has really revealed that the modern approach to healthcare is ineffective: the prevailing weakness in our consciousness in which we see the body as a jigsaw puzzle, trying to save lives or correct this or that dis-ease in the 11th hour.

We believe that the science of medicine, come forth as institutionalized healthcare, is the holy grail in terms of health and well-being in our lives. We are so dependent on it, it's spooky. The level of detachment and lack of awareness to understand and know about our bodies in simple ways is horrifying. It is very unfortunate to see that human beings, rarely if ever, receive education about their bodies in a (w)holistic and simple way that in the long run prevents blind dependency on institutions.

We are entering times where our supportive solutions will not be able to help the individual anymore. They’re already facing deep problems. They will collapse from pressure and chaos; any institution you want to look at.

In the last two years humanity has destroyed systems that took us decades to build and develop. And we did it in a blink of an eye.

All, as a result of a universal law that says that it is much easier to destroy than to build.

Hospitals all over the world are already inundated with patients coming to them with arrays of morbidities. Coupled with the ongoing staff shortages, it's a form of a death sentence to these people.

In the not-too-distant-future hospitals will become focal centers for malaise and death rather than for healing. Being hospitalized, even if it is for a non life threatening condition, the chances of deteriorating into a serious condition will increase exponentially.

We have long since lost our natural connection to ourselves, to simple universal laws and to the nature of being in exchange for blindly bowing to "the data" - humanity's new golden calf.

A lot of us are stuck with false hopes and contrived optimism, and often do everything to avoid the inconvenient truth. But by that we postpone as much as possible the personal responsibility to ourselves.

Covid is actually an externalization of the distorted principle where the synthetic has become much higher in the hierarchy than the natural; where the human immune system is always second best; that laboratory products are considered a gift from the gods; where linear algorithms and graphs displayed on a retina screen always take precedence from what happens in the field; that the theory is more important than the practice.

So it's time to go back to basics. It's time to take healthcare into our own hands.

Again, this does not mean that one has to be educated, study complicated concepts, be dependent on sophisticated devices and machines or invest huge amounts of money to be "insured".

The reality is that the human body is not isolated and disconnected as it seems within the illusion, but one continuum of unity. This means that if the individual does not act properly - according to fundamental laws on which the body is founded - they will develop an imbalance that will bring forth a state of dis-ease, or higher chances of developing a dis-ease over time.

But the opposite is also true. Once the individual acts according to the body's specification, their body will begin a self-alignment process because the body has healing abilities inherent within it.

Our bodies have simple instructions that if followed will garner the proper reward: being able to experience perfected health, physically, mentally and emotionally at all times.

Especially children.

To start educating children to treat their bodies in a way that conforms to the laws on which it was designed. And that starts with a proper sleep regimen, correct breathing and structural alignment patterns.

It's really not complicated.

I hope that this essay will point you on focusing on the right direction - yourself.
