DANCING THE RAZORS EDGE: A WF WAY TO READ “NEWSPAPERS”

Oh My Most Noble WF Sangha…

You Know You Are Living In Kali Yuga When…
the “headline” from a “newspaper” reads:

Tiny razor cleans out clogged leg arteries
WASHINGTON (AP)

…i cannot comprehend the inculcation delivered to our National Tribe, our International Tribe of Humanity,
by the DAILY INGESTION of such CRAP!!!!

i mean c’mon!

is THIS REALLY the BEST that our supposedly
BRILLIANT ‘healers’ can come up for our HEALTH:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Doctors using a razor the size of a grain of rice are shearing ribbons of yellowish sludge from inside clogged leg arteries.

Later in the article:
“It’s the latest therapy for a hard-to-treat disease that slowly chokes off blood flow in millions of people’s legs. And the shavings it extracts are more than icky evidence of illness: A drug giant is buying this plaque for research on how to keep arteries from clogging in the first place.”

uh, here guys, let Feeble Ilg give you a CLUE on how to “keep arteries from clogging in the first place.”

here it comes oh GREAT MINDS OF AMERICAN DRUGGISTS, SURGEONS, and RESEARCHERS…
you ready?!??! Got your computers ready to DOWNLOAD and DISSECT this INVALUBLE CLUE on
how to prevent “Peripheral artery disease, or PAD,” which “afflicts at least 12 million Americans as their leg arteries stiffen and narrow.”!??

you READY…here it comes…

Playing the WF Advocate…
okay,
i know i probably ain’t gonna git all you to quit reading newspapers, move up here beneath the Sacred Peak with me, feast upon the pranic ocean of red rock mesas, pondersosa/aspen forests, and high altitude air guarded by hawks and eagles while tossing away your car and doing Tribal, Natural Human Movement with me like soaring up and down world class mountain bike and ski trails..
yet,
what i can do?

is Teach you how to APPROPRIATELY read a “newspaper”
if you still really find such
things created from Tree Corpses
that deeply valuable to your Life Experience and Practice.

A WF WAY TO READ “NEWSPAPERS”

Technique #1: Write and See the word, newspaper, as “newspaper”
doing so will restore the proper TAF’ing (Thinking And Feeling….a WF Word Choice Tradition) to your otherwise conditioned sense of what constitutes “news”.

Technique #2: Engage WF Lifestyle Principle Number One; Breath and Posture whenever reading a “newspaper”; this aligns the subtle anatomy to function in their Highest Current Fitness.

Technique #3: Playing the WF Advocate…This is an outrageously fun and potent engagement of WF Lifestyle Principle Number Three; Appropriate Action. Here is how it goes; as you read a “newspaper” article, play judo with what is being fed into your cells by flipping the Consciousness Switch over to a WF Perspective. For example, let me Play the WF Advocate with the remainder of this absurd article on using a friggin’ razor blade to slice off chunks of “yellowish sludge from inside clogged leg arteries…”

ARTICLE SAYS:
Eventually, the lack of blood flow to muscles causes an aching pain while walking, called claudication.

WF ADVOCATE SAYS:
Eventually, the lack of blood flow to muscles causes an aching pain while walking, called a Training Effect from NOT doing CARDIO and eating JUNK!

ARTICLE SAYS:
Yet trouble walking often is wrongly considered a sign of aging instead of disease, meaning too few patients seek help early.

WF ADVOCATE SAYS:
Yet trouble walking often is wrongly considered a sign of aging OR disease, meaning too MANY patients BECOME ADDICTED TO COMFORT, CARS, and ENTERTAINMENT too early!

ARTICLE SAYS:
Two new technologies offer the hope of better alternatives: The tiny razor, called the SilverHawk, is threaded in a catheter through patients’ arteries to the blockages. Then the blade emerges and begins shaving; plaque collects in the device’s tip for extraction.

WF ADVOCATE SAYS:
Two ANCIENT technologies STILL PROVE better alternatives: The tiny thing, called DISCIPLINE, is threaded in a gentle manner through patients’ PRESCRIBED MEDITATION VOLUMES to thwart the uprising of ADDICTION TO OVERTHINKING…which is known to be the cause of lack of DAILY MOVEMENT AND CONSCIOUS BREATHING which results in all dis-ease. Then the DISCIPLINE emerges and begins a joyful return to being a Noble Fitness Warrior and their dis-ease eventually and delightfully becomes replaced with Inner Joy!

ARTICLE SAYS:
“Both of these devices are promising. The kicker is long-term durability,” says a specialist at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center.

WF ADVOCATE SAYS:
“Both of these devices – Discipline and Conscious Movement – are promising. Even better is the long-term durability,” says a Wholistic Fitness student.

ARTICLE SAYS:
More intriguing, pharmaceutical giant Merck & Co. is buying some SilverHawk patients’ extracted plaque, in a $9 million contract with razor manufacturer FoxHollow Technologies that, if the collaboration pans out, could generate up to $31 million more.

WF ADVOCATE SAYS:
More intriguing, is why proven Ancient and even contemporary Paths of full-spectrum health and fitness, such as Yoga and more recently, Wholistic Fitness, have not been integrated into the educational upbringing of our children.

ARTICLE SAYS:
In addition, Merck sees the potential of recruiting SilverHawk patients for drug studies — allowing analysis of plaque removed from one leg before taking a medication and from the other leg after taking it, to see if a drug directly affects the buildup. “This is a real opportunity to advance the science of understanding plaque biology,” says Dr. Richard Pasternak, Merck’s vice president of clinical research.

WF ADVOCATE SAYS:
Oh, holy Padmasambhava…the Devil has once again landed…well, to hell with this ‘new scientific breakthrough’ of razors cutting into my freakin’ ARTERIES!…i’m going for a bike ride and eat my herbs! Thanks, but i’ll take my chances on Natural, Wholistic, and FUN stuff! Keep your stinkin’ razors AWAY from this humble yogi!
