INTRODUCTION
In introducing the subject that the water is the only
Medicine, I have no claim over the originality of the sub­
ject, as the Vedas themselves claimed that water is the
only Medicine.

When and how people have forgotten to drink neces­
sary quantities of water, lam not able to trace. My
faithful studies in the prevention and cure of diseases
have placed me in a humble position, to record my inferanccs after the usual method of experiment and observa­
tion. After every error I had been rectifying the same
and I am having this inferance for the last 10 years. I have
put this forward openly in the year 1956 in my lecture at
Hyderabad. All these 10 years 1 have applied to theory
and found it correct in almost all cases.
The deficiency of water in drinking and bathing is the
main cause of all diseases and that the adequate supply
of pure water for drinking and bathing purposes is the
main part of medicine, is the theme of this small thesis,
which I am now offering to the profession who are respon­
sible for the health of the 400 millions whose ayu and
arogya (health and longevity) are the supreme of all
posessions.
In introducing this theme, I do not deny the other
aspects regarding the efficacy of other elements, Ether,
Air, Heat, Light and our Focd. 1 specially offer the use
of water in addition to the above elements only because

2
the addition of water is so awfully neglected in the pre­
vention and cure of diseases uptill now by the patient as
well as the doctor.

I shall now proceed to explain how I have arrived at
the conclusion. I thank all the doctors of various schools
of medicine, for the knowledge they have handed over to
me and crave the help of every one of them to put the
theory to test and let me know their experiences, which
I hope to make use of in the further editions of this work,
Drinking adequate quantities of water at regular
intervals, is not against rules of hygiene. Eight glasses
of water taken as a life saving beverage for every day
will put any one on the road to health. In addition to
the other rules laid down in the books on hygiene, water
will supply the missing link.

If you take care of your diet as laid down in this
thesis and follow other rules regarding other habits of
life such as work, rest, sleep and sexual behaviour, you
will seldom find the necessity of taking any medicine.

“Apo Vy Bheshajairi’ is the blessing heard from the
Vedas thousands and thousands of years ago by the seers of
the Vedas. People take it for an ordinary meaning. They
are cleansing their bodies in and out with water.
After more than 40 years of my faithful study in the
cause and cure of diseases, now I am in a position to
declare openly the efficacy of water in the prevention and
cure of all diseases.
People cleanse their bodies in and out by drinking
and bathing of water. Most people do not know; nay
even most of the learned people in other directions do
not know; that they are suffering through many diseases
because they do not make use of sufficient quantities of
water for drinking purposes.
Not even resorting to any other method of treatment
I have cured very serious diseases with drinking of water

and bathing with it. Medicines prepared in the laborato­
ries which cost crores of rupees to the Government (Ex­
chequer), none of them can cure al! diseases. They may
cure, if at all, a small number of a set of diseases. Other
kinds of medicines should be prepared for the treatment of
other set of diseases. It means a great strain over the Ex­
chequer and the people of our poor country. Awfully
most medicines so prepared give a temporary relief and
keep the individuals in a sort of permanent invalidism.

cause of all the diseases, namely the want of sufficient
quantity of water.

Water on the other hand is available free of charges
and freely enough, in so man}' ways, in the gigantic rivers
streams, canals, tanks, wells, etc., anywhere and every
where. It is so cheap and so conveniently available.
“Saral, sasta and Sarva-Sulabha.” When I say pure water
I do not mean any distillation, filtration or chlorination.
Water in the free nature may be made use of, provided
it does not contain any bad odour or taste. There is no
need of adding any substance to this water to make it
more efficient in the cure of diseases. It is sufficiently
efficient, in the cure of any disease. People partaking
of water-laden vegetables, fruits, milk, butter milk, etc.,
need less water than those that partake of dry things,
parched things, spiced and fried food stuffs.
In our daily practice we are observing efficacy of
water-laden articles, such as vagetables, fruits, fruit jui­
ces, butter milk, water with honey or jaggery (Gur),
gruel etc;
The cause is simple. Because they contain largest
percentage of water in all of them.

Things that are said to cure diseases contain poisons
of the vegetable, animal, mineral and sea products. They
give only a temporary relief. None of them know the

When one begins to take the water course in the
treatment of diseases, nutrition improves, elimination
also improves, and there is a permanent cure. In the
meanwhile the patient learns the efficacy of water in the
sustainance of health and in prolangation of life. The
7 Dhatus begining with Rasa and Rakta (Lymph and Blood)
become pure; and Vata, Pitta and Kapha gain their nor­
malcy. Water used at regular intervals in moderate
quantities can not give any trouble, because it contains
no poisons.
The truth that water administered in sufficient quan­
tities is necessary for health, and not against the teach­
ings of any hygiene or other methods of treatments. If
prudently made use of, this water will help other me­
thods of treatments to a great extent. Fruits and vegeta­
bles spoken of as hygenic and curative contain mostly
water .This explains away the secret of the pharmaceuti­
cal nature of water in those articles.

People drink very large quantities of water at one
stretch and they can not get as much benefit as drinking
water in moderation and regulation. The reason is sim­
ple. If one exceeds in drinking certain quantity of water
the valves open and the water goes down without doing
the necessary good, like the food we eat in excess, does
not nourish the body but burdens the system and at times
creates troubles. People often say that they do not feel
thirst. The body has got a curious nature that it
can go on with more or less food for years together.
People with meagre means to furnish them with food and
go on with less food. It does not mean that they can have

6
full growth. So also when people take less water the
body thrives in its own way. In both cases the deteoration is inevitable. Those that do not take the necessary
quantities of water will get anaemia, and general
weakness, leucorrhoea and spermatorrhoea, etc., are due
to want of water. Dropsy also is the outcome of the
defficiency of water drinking. Constipation is caused by
eating dried, fried, parched, spiced things, and less
quantities of water in drinking. When those people
suffering from constipation begin to partake of vegetables
and fruits which are mostly water, in sufficient quantities,
get cured. Dropsy a disease which people often mistake
to contain more water is in truth not a result of water
but the starch percentage that floats in lymph and blood.
When we start water as a medicine for dropsy, the sticky
starchy matter gets diluted and is eliminated through
the bladder and through the capillaries.
As long as the body contains the sticky matter the
consistency of the lymph and blood hinder the free flow
of water through the capillaries into the bladder. When
we avoid the use of salt and sugar and cut down the
starches and carbohydrates, get cured of dropsy, with
the drinking of water or water laden fruit juices.

II
In all things metabolism goes long as they are alive.
Anabolism and catabolism are the two sections of
metabolism. In anabolism they get their nourishment.
In catabolism cleansing goes on to make them pure,
clean and healthy.

7
I shall deal with the nutritive portion of metabolism
in this chapter. The quantitative and qualitative in-take
of solids, and gasses in the shape of food or drink go
to form into lymph, before it is absorbed and assimilated
by the body. The body is made up of small tiny bodies
called cells. To keep one healthy, every cell in the body
must have a regular supply of this lymph as food in the
first place. From the tongue to the anus there are billions
of capillaries that carry this lymph into the general
circulation of the lymphatic channels. Like the big rivers
that have got the string like streams and become gigantic
rivers, these small tiny lymphetic capillaries go to form
bigger and bigger channels of limph. Like the big rivess
that quench the thirst of each and every plant of the field,
very small and tiny capillaries carry thin lymph to every
cell in the body. One must not forget that the lymphetic
capillaries are very tiny and thin, and before the indi­
vidual cells can receive its nourishment, the lymph should
pass through these very tiny capillaries. Every particle
of food that is taken by us should be converted into very
thin fluid (like water) so that it can pass through these
small capillaries.

The quantity of water that is needed for the body in
the act of nutrition is so very great and most people do not
exceed this quantity. The want of water in this act of
nutrition is responsible for people feeling weakness, even
though they take a large quantity of the various quality
foods, the so-called “nourishing foods”. Moreover, the
body is not a laboratory test tube. It makes good the
bad circumstances. I mean this, when people partake of
dried, fried, parched, spiced and stimulating food stuffs,
the body looses its moisture. This moisture, you must
not forget, is from the vital fluids of the body. When

8
such things are eaten or partaken and the necessary
quantity of water is not then in, then the body looses its
vital fluids and one feels very weak and exhausted. Though
they take most nourishing foods in accordance with the
food-tables, still they feel weak and exhausted. This is
how even those who are fortunate to take nourishing food
can not get the maximum benefit out of it, and feel
weaker than those who can afford to have only meagre
(poor) diet.
It dose not stop there. When the lymph is not pro­
perly made thin by adding the necessary quantity of
liquids it can not flow through the capillaries and float
into the bigger tubes of the lymphetic channels. Such
thick (un-diluted by water) lymph which is not properly
utilised by the small cells of the body, floats into the
bigger tubes of the lymphetic channels and become
thicker later on (in due course of time). To vacate the
channels, as a natural function of the body, such fluid
is thrown aside to form the granular and nodulous
growths and such other growths of various types
and shapes.
If there is sufficient vitality and activity in the body,
this lymph is thrown out of the body in the shape of
running ears (white or yellowish watery and sticky
dischrgcs from the ears). Mucus (slimy substance
secreted by an organ of the body, called Balgum or
Sleshma (in Hindi) from the nose and or throat and
even the white discharge from the genital organs of both
sexes, as in dysentery, wet-dreams (Swapna-Dosh),
leucorrhocal discharges etc.
One is very fortunate if the excess unused fluid, (un
used not because of its quantity, but because of its thick
and sticky quality owing to lack of sufficient water) goes

out of the body. Unfortunately people will not welcome
such occurences and try to stop them with ‘Potions’
and ‘powders’ and the like.
Let any one observe a small fast of a day or two
only with the intake of plenty of water, at regular
intervals during any sort of colds and coughs (i. e.
discharges from the body) and see for himself the miracle
of this water-cure.

When ever this unwanted matter is obstructed from
being thrown out of the system (body), the spleen gets
spoiled to be responsible for malaria, or the fluid may be
deposited in the joints and form into Rheumatism and
Gout later on.
So many people do not know the real cause of fever.
Every kind of fever is ascribed to the presence of one or
the other kind of germs. But the truth is this. The body
wants to eliminate the unwanted matter from it. It
wants to burn away and eliminate the excess lymph. High
fever, quick beating of the heart, increase of respirations
and great thirst with un-rest or uneasiness due to the
activities of combustion going on in and out, are the
symptoms. Any ordinary man with commonsense can
understand that the body needs water in fevers.
Water diminishes the height of temperature, lessens
the heart-beat and respiration. The colour of the urine
in fevers is deep yellowish or reddish. Taken at regular
inervals sufficient quantities of water will lower (soften)
the colour of the urine and the body will get cooler. The
fever goes down.

I am at a loss to understand why people do not admit
(understand) the simple truth and they administer poisons

10
in a fever which can be very easily cured with water. The
medicines that are used for fever, if they are used on
ordinary healthy body, will make one sick and feverish.
The delirium and insomnia in fevers, I fear, are not
outcome of the fever itself, but are due to the indiscrimi­
nate use of drugs administered to cure or suppress (?)
the fever.

Taking up the string of the story, the lymph in the
proper consistancy will nourish each and every cell in the
body. One feels healthy, happy and strong. Every
mental and physical organ is active. There will be no
unusual stimulation in the genital system. They are
fertile. Facundation (confinement) and parturation (deli­
very) are no more things to be afraid of. Children born
to such fortunate parents will have their nourishment
from their own mothers. The bodies will be normal. They
are; the organs; are symetrical. All this needs water.
For all this water-laden fruits and vegetables are nece­
ssary. There is one sloka from the Gita :

^n: fFFsrr: fcro:

fsrm:

This is a very great promise from the Bhagwat Gita,
that those that partake of foods have not lost their Rasa
(juice) in the act of drying, frying, parching, cooking,
etc. and those that partake of things that retain their
oils and flavours and which are not spoiled by putrifaction
disintegration, which are pleasing to the 5 senses will be
long lived or will have a long life. They retain their

stamina and strength. Th
health is not disturbed.
They are happy and they extend their love to each and
every one. Because we can not get things in their natural
state, we soak, cook and make things tender. It is
always wise to take along with our food so prepared some
vegetables and some seasonal fruits. There are poor
people who can not afford to byy even those things. In
nature we are able to see that even those people are able
to sustain their health and hapiness through the use of
this innocent water in necessary quantities.

Ill
In ordinary circumstances every cell receives its
nourirhment from the lymphctic circulation, every day.
Remaining lymph that is not made use of by the cells,
goes into the Vena-cava from the Portal vein.

That lymph which enters the veinous circulation gets
into the heart and from there goes into the lungs, through
the Pulmonary Artery. From the lungs it is divided and
sub-divided and enter the Areolae. In the Areolae this
veinous blood takes in oxygen in the inspiration and sheds
out carbon-di-oxidc in the expiration. Thus it gets pure
full of oxgen, red in colour and enters the pulmonary
veins. It then reaches the left side of the heart and is
pumped out through the main artery (Aorta) from which
it goes through the various branches of the arterial blood
vessels. This blood has got the peculiar nature of
supplying food to the various cells in acco'd.mce with
their needs, by the act of chemical affinity. In normal
conditions this is the condition that is going on every day.

13
For converting this veinous blood and the lymph into
pure arterial blood 3 things arc necessary. Pure air, sun
light and activity of the body. How ever nutritious the
food may be, and even if the necessary quantity of liquids
are taken, it cannot be converted properly into pure
arterial blood if the 3 above mentioned conditions are not
properly fullfilled. This is the cause of the poor men with
meagre diet getting more nourishment, strengh, ability,
agility, and potency, than the idle men with more
nourishing food. Taking up the string, one docs not need
so much of heavy food materials, but more (rich) easily,
digestible feeds and sun light, air and movements of the
body or work; means exercise.
If the food contains carbohydrates, fats and protiens,
in excess of what the body needs, the body is burdened
with this unwanted matter. The heart can not pump out
such impure material into the pulmonary circulation and
can not absorb improperly purified blood from the lungs.
In such cases, we cut the carbohydrate, fat and
protien foods and increase the quantity of vegetables and
fruits. We naturally give a course of water drinking in
regulation and moderation. In this way the lymphetic
and veinous blood is properly diluted with pure water
and goes out of the bod}' in the shape of urine, sweat and
stools. In this way, water again begins to help the over­
laden body in the act of elimination by dilution. Every
cell in the body takes its quotrr of food from the lymphetic
and the blood-circulatory systems, in accordance with
its needs.

Tn the physiological work going on in the body, every
cell takes its quota food and has got to eliminate its
debris (ashes). This debris must go through very tiny

capillaries into the veinous circulation. It requires again
water for the dilution of the debris. Being not sufficiently
diluted to be able to go (pass) through the capillaries,
the debris collects in the body, to form into unwanted
filth, which is responsible for auto-intoxication and self
poisoning. There is yet another stage where water is
needed. It is in the proper elimination of unwanted
matter through the eliminative organs, namely the skin
(sweat) and kidneys (urine). Before a drop of water goes
into the bladder or the sweat-gland, it is divided into
very tiny microscopic particles of (HZO) of water. Else
the impurities flow into the blood, giving strain to the
heart and spoiling the liver and the spleen.

So at every stage we find the necessity of water in
assimilation of food stuffs and the eliminationof unwanted
matter from the body.
Again, the brain and the nervous sytems are moiste­
ned every second with blood fluids or with the lymphetic
fluids. l/6th of the blood that goes to feed all the cells
of the body, goes to feed the cells of the brain. That
explains how the brain is continuously soaked in blood
and lymyh. The two liquids are shock-absorbing also
and keep the brain always active without any hinderance.

There is another intricate action in the brain and the
nerve-cells, which require some explanation. When a
copper wire and a zinc rod are placed in a solution of
sulphuric acid and the two ends are joined, you find the
pulsation of electricity. In the brain as well as along the
nerve fibres which begin in the medulla oblongata, and
branch out at various stations passing to spinal cord are
intensified in action by the arterial and veinous blood
channels that run on either side of them. As long as the

15

14
Water supply is not deficient the arterial blood is suffici­
ently pure and contrasts with the veinous blood. And
whenever the water supply is deficient, bodily impurities
are not sufficiently thrown out, impurity still floats in the
arterial blood, also thus making the contrast less power­
ful. The nervine electricities become less and less
powerful.
The blood vessels are actuated by the nervine forces,
and nerves act properly while there is a proper contrast
in the arterial and veinous circulations. Thus the circu­
latory system and the nervous system are inter-dependent
and they work hand in hand all through our life.

There are two other organs which work in contrast
to each other. They are liver and spleen. The spleen
gets enlarged if the lymphetic circulation is sluggish or it
is not made sufficiently thin to pass through the capillaries
that have to feed billions and trillions of bodily cells day
in and day out. The liver also can not send in. its fluids
into the digestive circulation, nor can it process and
repair the unwanted particles floating in the blood, if
there is deficiency of water.

Clearly enough whenever we come across the
enlargement of liver and spleen, or the presence of
stone in the gall-bladder, we have detected that the
patients drink very little quantities of water.
Nephritis and presence of pussy granular deposits
and the presence of stones in the bladder are due to the
want of necessary quantities of water that can wash
them off.
Gastritis and gastralgia and inflamations and ulcera­
tions in the duodenum and in any other centre in the

digestive tracks, that is all due to the want of water.
People may ask way people do not drink sufficient quanti­
ties of water. My answer is simply this, that is due to
ignorance, indifference and neglect. The reason also is
simple. Water is so simple a thing which requires no
cost or processing, mixing and concoction, etc. People
can not so easily believe that so innocent an article; can
cure them of their diseases which could not be combated
by obnoxious mixures and wild concoctions which are
processed and mixed with costly minerals and poisons of
vegetable and nonvegetable kingdoms.

Let any body give a trial to disolving his bodily
poisons with pure water in regulation and moderation.
One will begin to realise the efficacy of water in the cure
of his disease and in the sustainance and maintainance of
his health.
I shall now proceed to analyse a number of diseases
and try to convince any unbiased person that the necessity
of water not taken in regulation and moderation is the
cause for any disease. I shall try to explain also how
any disease can be cured without the use of any medicine;
Alopathic, Ayurvedic, Homeopathic or Yunani or any
other system of medicine, if one sticks to biological
commonsense methods of eating, drinking and living.

IV
In our daily life, we come across a number of times
works pertaining to repair, rennovation and remodelling
etc., on the roads, canals and in the town. So also, in

16

17
the body, when the routes (channels) in which the
lymphetic and blood-fluids flow, so much of repair work
and remodelling work will be going on. For that,
temporary arrangements are often being made in
diverting and adjusting the temporary suspense of traffic
may also be necessary for carrying on capital work.

Whenever there is any irregularity, we must be able
to understand the plan on wich the temporary suspensions
divertions or adjustments arc based. In our haste, unknow­
ingly if we fail to understand the interior plan for the
temporary arrangements and try to put things right in a
wrong or superficial way, we will be doing the most injus­
tice to the plan of nature and to ourselves.

In hundreds of cases, I have observed that most of
the diseases are intended in the above way, for repairing,
rennovating and adjusting the system. I shall take up one
case after another and prove that such diseases are not
only most natural, but are most helpful in a set of patho­
logical conditions. I often say—

“They are pathological necessities”.
The fever is an ordinary disease which, afflicts a
number of times, almost all the people. If I can explain
and analyse what a fever is and how it is necessary in
that very pathological condition then most of my work
will be over.
What are the symptoms in a fever ? The symptoms
arc high temperature, (2) a quicker heart-beat (3)
Increase in respirations (4) Thirst (5) uneasiness (6) burn­
ing sensations throughout the limbs and (7) the hightened
or thickened colour of the urine; almost reddish yellow
or deep yellow. The tongue is quoted (gray or white)

and there is no hunger. Any body who wants to take
any food in those conditions, can not relish it and in case
if he takes any food inspite of the warning of the nature,
it brings nausea and vomiting. Often it tastes bitter.
The continuous irregularities in diet and living habits in
which a pathological condition has been created where
no more food is needed, and there is yet so much of the
unwanted material gathered, to be burnt away and
thrown, material that is stagnating and purifying in the
body, should be diluted with pure water and sent out of
the body, in the form of stools, urine, sweat etc.

If we simply understand this plan of the body, we
would naturally feed the body with copious quantities of
water or liquid, acid or sub acid fruit-juices. The liquids
or fluids so taken, dilute the pathogonic materials and
there will be increased urination with lowered or softened
colour and unhindered profuse sweat. There may be an
increase in the quality and quantity of stools. All these
things lessen the burden on the heart and the lungs, so
that in a certain period of silent and patient waiting the
body gets repaired, the coat ing on the tongue vanishes.
The temperature, the heart-beat and the breathings come
to normalcy. The hunger sets in and the convalescence­
period is much shortened. The patient regains his
normal health in a very short time.
On the contrary, if one resorts to vile concoctions,
sugar coated poisons, specifics etc., one makes the plan
of nature topsyturvey. All the debris and the depleted
material is kept inside and there may or may not be a
temporary relief which is mrre harmful and detrimental
to the system than the disease itself, for which the medi­
cines have been administered.

18
People have been taught to feel and complain that
the continuation of the fever will put down the vitality
of the system and so an urgent and immediate “check”
is necessary without which the case would fare fatal!
The reverse is the truth. As I have explained already.
though a relief of a very temporary nature is perceived,
the patient does not feel normalcy in hunger, digestion
and assimilation. There is still constipation lingering
and the patient does not feel relieved nor does he feel
the normal strength for a very long time. The poisons
introduced into the body will be doing their havoc and
preparing the body to be a subject to asthma, consump­
tion etc., in the long run.
It is almost a natural a phenomena in most cases of
asthma and consumption that the diseases are not due
to continuous fever, but owing to medicines administered
to put down the temperature for a protracted period.
Had the first fever been cured and body repaired in accor­
dance with the plan of nature, there would not have been
the persistant recurrence of fevers or temperatures and
the subsequent medications.

I think I will be excused, when I say that asthma and
consumption are diseases hatched in the medicines’ chest
of fever-remedies and are the products of unwanted
indiscriminate “fever-specifics” and invented concoc­
tions.

In a number of cases, I have observed that when a
fever is suppres sed in this manner, the lymph which was
not properly us id, has settled in the body, as it could not
be properly diluted and thrown out. It enters the brain area
and the nervous, system to be responsible for a num

19
of nervous diseases. You will wonder when I inform
you that the lymphetic deposits can be seen in the iris
where the locality designed for the brain area, has got a
patch of white fog. explaining the cause of the set of
diseases known as insanity, epilepsy, paralysis, apoplexy
and hysteria, whenever the impurities are diluted and
drawn to circulation to be thrown out of the body and
through the natural organs of elimination, the most
distressing and baffling diseases go down in their virulence
and a cure is obtained. It is commonsense.
I shall now probe into the causes of Malaria and try
to analyse the various symptoms and explain the true
purpose of those symptoms in the economy of health.
Malaria is not a disease that afflicts one all of a sudden.
Chronic defiance of the rules of healh and indulgence in
things that are detrimental to the health, due to igno­
rance, are at the root of this malady, As explained
before, the unused lymph is mostly responsible for this
disease. Over-eating of starch along with milk and milk
products may be mentioned amongst the mistakes that
are responsible for this disease. Sedentry habits, lack
of pure air and sun-light and lack of proper exercise may
also be added to the list of mistakes causing malaria.
Ignorance to the efficacy water-drinking is the crown of
all causes. Food that is not properly diluted and made
thin, to be properly carried to the millions of hungry
cells, remain in the bigger channels of the lymphetic
circulation, get thickened and obstruct the lymphatic
circulation. The Great Designer of our bodies has
placed an organ called spleen which tries to absorb
in a concentrated form the thick pasty fluid, and relieve
the obstacles in the circulation of the lymph. Inspite of
the repeated warning from inside in the shape of dyspepsia

20

21

indigestion, nausea, loss of appetite and loss of taste
and repugnance to food, etc., one resorts to medicines and
tries to defeat the purpose of the Nature or defy the law
and order of the Greater.

quantity of the concentrated lymphetic fluid that has
accummulated in the spleen and other portions of the
body. The shivering and the chillness is felt on the
surface of the whole body. To save the body temperature
from the chilliness of this electric shock, the hot over­
works and that is the cause of the high fever. The lymph
that is driven to the surface of body in the ionised form
is burnt there and thrown out in the subsequent sweats.
The sticky, foul smelling sweat is nothing but the matter
thrown out of the body because it could not be properly
and timely used by the body for want of necessary quan­
tities of water. Had the warnings of nature been heeded
and the solid food reduced to a minimum and drinking
of water and other fluid and water-laden substances
increased, there would be no occurrances of such types.

Benign Nature does not allow this kind of detrimen­
tal behaviour and tries to throw out the un-wanted
matter from the body, and that is Malaria.
Like many other varieties of fevers, in Malaria also
there are loss of appetite, repugnance to food, bitter
taste in the mouth, abnosia, reeling in the head, burning
of the body and eyes, headache, thirst, rapidity of the
pulse, hard breathing.
The curious symptom of chill is felt in the begining
of the Malaria fever. And what and why is this chill
after all? It is because the automatic resources of the
All Powerfull, so very kind and always protective Nature
provides or supplies the chill through the nervous system
with view to prepare the outer surface and the entire
body to tolerate the in-coming high temperature, or in
other words, to save the body from being burnt in so high
a fever. Unlike in other fevers, the temperature in
Malaria would rise upto 105°, 106o, 107° and burning
sensation takes the place of chill and shivering. Great
thirst, is left and abnormal quantities of water taken.
After hours of this high fever, the fever goes down with
a profuse perspiration, all over the body, once or twice
after every fever. The patient feels highly relieved and
feels jubiliant after every fever until another attack of
fever.

In accordance with the quantum of impurities
encumbered in the body, the body is subjected to this
kind of ordeal a number of times, and that is the cause
of the repetition of fevers in a regular intermittant form.

After all the encumbered matter is thrown away the
symptoms fade away and the body becomes normal and
healthy. These fevers do not bring in either anaemia or
any destructive.diseases, provided care is taken to drink
sufficient quantities of fruit juices, vegetable soup or
water mixed with or without fruit juices or honey or
butter milk, during the whole ordeal.

Unlike other fevers it seems that very light nourish­
ment is needed for malarial patients when they have no
fever on the body.
I am at a loss to understand why any medicine should
I shall now try to explain, what is actually going on be used in such a healthy process of the cleaning of the
in side the body. The body intends to throw out a certain

22

23

body from within. Any interference in the shape of
administration of quinine, aconite, arsenic, and so many
bitter vegetable products will fail like a sudden break to
a fast going automobile.

liquid food, it happens in most mothers that they take
lots of solid (dry) food and do not drink the necessary
quantity of water themselves. The milk that comes out
of the breast of such ‘‘water deficient mother” is not
thin or digestible enough and the child fed by such a
sticky or thickened milk, comes across so many diseases
of the children. Most of the ‘‘infant mortality”, it is
learnt from the Government-Records or GovernmentHealth-Reports, happens in the first 6 months of the
baby’s life. To see that the infants mortality is minimised
or warded off, we will have to look to the health of the
children, especially in the first 6 months of thair infancy.
Children will learn the sipping of water with a pleasant
delight and any inteligent mother can very conveniently
sellect one or two times in the day for water-feeding, in
place of milk-feeding.
It is not true that the children will catch cold or
cough. Because the water (immune and innocent water)
does not contain any phlegm itself. Any phlegm that
comes out after the feeding of water is the matter already
accumulated there from before, and in the course of
diluting and driving out (eliminating) the phlegmatic
particles, the cough and cold is felt; only in the begining.
The children that are fed without water and those
whose mother’s milk is thicker than they can digest and
assimilate are prone to the so-called children’s diseases;
nay “Mother's Diseases” as I want to put it, with apolo­
gies. All these diseases can be prevented and the child
also can grow healthy and happy by the simple water
method. It is only those children that do not receive
the necessary quota of water-feeding that arc afficted
with erruptive fevers; the cause and cure of which is now
going to be explained.

On enquiry I have learnt in a number of cases, anae­
mia, dysentry, asthma and consumption are brought
about by this unnecessary interference with medicines.
In one or two cases of insanity I have traced the cause to
be the repeated interference in cases of Malaria with
highly poisonous medicines.

I can assure you that people who are alive to the
need of water in the metabolism of the body and drink
and make use of sufficient quantities of water-laden fruits
and vegetables or water alone, will never be subject to
this disease.
Sufficient quantities of water for Malarial patients
will lessen the virulence of the fever and shivering and
the cure will be quicker than without the much needed
water.

V
I shall now proceed to explain other kinds of fevers
which are more common than other minor ailments and
also of a more common occurrance. The intelligent
advocate of Naturopathy will handle these cases very
easily because he aims at the root cause of the said dis­
eases. I was telling in many of my speeches to teach
the child to take a few drops of water, even from the
inception. A few drops of water every day, will keep
the child healthy and happy. Though the child takes only

25
ERRUPTIVE FEVERS
In the first 6 months of the child’s life, the nature is
more benign and tries to save the child eagerly and that
is an acute disease. Nature does not allow the indiscri­
minate encumberance of the impurities in the small and
tender body of the child; and as such it tries to dispose
off the very little quantities of impurities, as soon as
they occur or creep in into the body of a child. And
that is the cause of repeated or frequent acute diseases
in children.
Unless the cause is checked and remedied, the health
of the child is spoiled day by day and it ultimately results
into the child mortality. The unwise medication, which
is a drastic violation of Nature’s attempt, lowers vitality
of the child and becomes the cause of the abhoring infant
mortality.
Eruptive fevers are no other (nothing else) than the
Nature’s own attempts for the disposal of the un-wanted
matters gathered in the child’s body. Chicken pox,
Measles, Scarlatima etc., and for such other eruptive
fevers no special, medication is necessary. The forcing
of food in the body of a child suffering from these diseases
should be avoided and sweet fruit-juices may take the
place of mothers’ breast. Water at frequent (measured)
intervals will dilute the filthy matter and will throw out
or bring out of the body; through urine, sweat, etc., and
will relieve the body much earlier, and the health is
regained in a very short time. Every where, in ths
villages as well as in cities, such eruptive fevers or
epidemics are called Mata, Shitla, Maharani etc., wbtcb;

term denotes the mother and which means that is due
to or pertaining to the mother. It may be, as the sayings
go, either the blessing or the curse of a Mother. But I
certainly feel that it is after all the “Gift” from the
mother. And any interference with medicines, it is
believed, will bring in the displeasure of the Mata, Bhavani or mother, and the death becomes a surity.

People do not give any medicine in such eruptive
fevers, as soon as they recognise it to be a Mata. They
then patiently and hopefully wait fora normal conclusion
of the protracted illness and a happy reclamation
(recovery) of the child.
Even in such cases, the want or shortage of water is
the root cause, and proper administration of water and
water-laden fruits or fruit-juices alone arc the correct
remedies.

Now I shall deal with two virulent types of eruptive
fevers namely the “Small-Pox” and the “Typhoid”
fevers. Both of them have got eruptions. In Small-pox
the filth is thrown out to the surface of the body, whereas
in Typhoid fever the filth is thrown inside, towards the
digestive tracts. Both of them take a long period for
the repair of the body and the result is invariably
salutary if no medicine is introduced into the body, and
instead, proper care is taken to help the nature by
dilution and washing away the impurities from the body,
with copious quantities of sweet fruit-juices and water.
The hideous figures that are said to be the outcome
of Small-pox or Typhoid, are the results of, not the
disease but un-necessary and indiscriminate feeding that
is resorted to, for the sake of stopping or checking the

26

27

disease. As otherwise these diseases are totally harmless
and the results most beneficial, if the above rules are
strictly adhered to.

The bubonic plague can also be cured with the same
treatment as above, and the cause is also very simple,
milk and milk-products and the abnormal quantities of
sugar consumed in sweets and food and lack of fresh
water to dilute them is learnt to be responsible for the
diseases of this kind. Asin Small-pox in this disease
also, you see clearly the attempt of nature to throw out
the filthy matter from the body. Unlike the Small-pox
in the Plague the buboes are so very big and the disease
is so very virulent; the death-role also is so very heavy!
We offer vegetables and fruit-juices and water to be the
preventive and curative agents in cases of this sort.

The medical interference is the root cause of
Pneumonia, Influenza, Asthma and even Consumption of
the lungs. The oft repeated craving to “do something”
has made the medical man helpless in administering
some obnoxious and wild concoctions to put down the
benign simple fever, thereby driving the impurities from
the lower body to the lungs, where it causes (creates)
the above mentioned four kinds of diseases.

The next important disease or kind of fever is
Jaundice. In this disease the whole body becomes
yellow. The eyes are yellow, the nails are yellow.
colour of the urine also is deep yellow and at times
reddish. Loss of appetite or hunger and the presence of
thirst is there. A gigantic effort is going on inside the
body to relieve the liver of its excess reserves of the
Liver-fluids. Fever and thirst tell us plainly that the water­
reserve has exhausted. Any attempt to put down the tempe­
rature in Jaundice will result in the further destruction of
the liver. Jaundice, if interfered with unnecessary and
unwanted medication, will result into ascites and death
might become inevitable. So, care must be taken not to
use any medicine to bring down the fever, but to help
the nature by adding to the body more and more sweet
fruit juices or atleast water, if one can not afford the
fruit-juice. No one need be afraid of starvation in this
disease because there is practically no real hunger for
food. Water and water only is the needful substance
which is able to bring down the yellow colour and the
height of the fever.

Those fevers that did not come into this purview
maybe safely dealt with in the same way as is put
forward in the previous chapters.

VI
I have said about the need of water in supplying food
to the millions of cells in the body. I told also the need
of water in driving out the debris from each cell. The
need of water in sending out the matter from the body
through the eliminative organs, I will now show you
how it is very essential in the very conversion of the food
intake into the usable fluid called lymph. The need of
water in mechanising the food intake from mouth to the
anus.
No one need think that the long digestive track is a
hollow open tube. The peristalitic action and the
valvular obstacles that arc there at every stage of the
digestion, need a lot of water. Without water the food

28

29

contents are obstructed at every stage of digestion and
delay is the result. In delaying the matter at each and
every stage the matter becomes stagnant and putrified.
By that people suffer a lot from inflamation and ulcera­
tion, in the various stations, between the mouth and
the anus.
The alkaline saliva in the mouth that is so very useful
for the digestion of the starches, in itself is 95 percent
water. People partaking of dried, fried, ‘parched, spiced
articles require a lot more of water than those that eat
food which is most, oily, soft and rich in natural flavours.
Without proper digestion of starches in the mouth, the
digestion in the stomach is delayed by a lot of time and
it requries much more hydrochloric acid for digestion.
The hydrochloric acid (gastric fluid) is itself again mostly
water. People partaking of very solid diet will have to
suffer a lot of indigestion, through the delayed stomach
digestion and the resultant purification and inflamation
in the stomach. At the lower end of the stomach, there
is a valve called “Pylorus”. It will not allow substances
to go down unless they are sufficiently masticated and
churned in the stomach and made digestible in the
“Duodenum”. People drinking water after heavy meal
will experience the taste and smell of the food they have
eaten, even after several hours. It means that the food
is delayed so many long hours in the stomach and that the
Pylorus would not allow it to go down into Duodenum.
After drinking water 2 or 3 times after a meal, you do not
feel the taste and odour of the meal. That means that
the food has passed through the Pylorus into the Duode­
num. People complaining of gastralgia and gastaritis are
eaters of dry food and do not properly masticate their
foods and also do not drink sufficient quantities of water.

They often complain also that drinking of water will
cause nausea or vomiting of acid fluid. They are afraid
of water which is so very necessary in their case and
which is so very necessary in the cure of their diseases.
The doctors also threaten them that water will produce
acid (sour vomitings) and prescribe alkaline powders and
pills which just neutralise the acid for the time being.
The cause of the disease which is the lack of water
is untouched and the patient never gets cured. The
patient runs from one doctor to another and exhausts
one after the another patent medicines for the cure of
that disease. Gastralgia and gastaritis become chronic
and the patient becomes a victim of aneamia and blood­
lessness. I analyse the cause of this disease to be “want
of water” and make the patients drink sufficient quanti­
ties of water at regulars intervals. They also get nausea
and acid vomitings in the begining and as time passes on
the strength of the acid goes down and the pain fades
away then there is a permanent cure.

How in the duodenum the chief conversion of food
into lymph is going on ? Fluids from liver and pancreas
join to assist further digestion in the duodenum. Only
that amount of sugar which the body can use properly
goes down into the smaller intestines and the excess
sugar is stored in the pancreas. The excess protien that
the body cannot use, goes back to the liver to be made
use of or changed into Albuoeminoids and Urea. The
Urea is eliminated from the body through the kidneys.
Some of the lymph is stored in the spleen to be made
use of at a later period when the food contains less
quantities of starches or at the time of fasting or
Starvation.

30
The above holds good if the bile is sufficiently thin
and can pass through the tiny holes that go into the
duodenum. If the bile is not sufficiently thin and can
easily pass into the duodenum it stays back and gets into
the gall bladder and putrify to inflame or form into
stones in the gal! bladder.
The digestion is impaired for want of liver-fluids,
stools does not get the colour of the liver fluid. It is
due to this cause, we see in indigestion the stools getting
white. Not only this, the liver fluid is disinfectant
and a de-oderisor and when it does not flow properly,
the smell of the stool becomes very foul. In Jaundice
again it is the lack of fluid that makes the liver so
inactive. The bile does not flow into the digestive tract,
the stool has a white colour, the quantity of urine is
lessened and it becomes dark or reddish in colour. The
blood is filled with yellow fluid and the whole body gets
the yellow hew. So the lack of water makes the food
delayed even in the Duodenum, gives rise to inflamation
and ulceration in the duodenum. Again the ancamia
and lack of blood will result for want of distribution of
proper food to the remotest parts of the body and one
becomes a permanent invalid and a chronic patient.
Medicines used to combat this condition may or may not
give temporary relief, but the condition gets worse with
each medication. It often proves fatal in the hands of
those who do not know the real cause to be the lack of
water, in this case also.
The small intestines are a much more intricate labo­
ratory, with millions of furrows inside and with almost
all the chemical substances that arc responsible for the
digestion of the food in the upper region of the digestive

31
tract. It will be very hard to digest food that is not
properly masticated and properly churned and chemically
treated in the stomach and does not receive its necessary
quota of the fluids from the pancreas and liver. There
again the stagnation, putrifation, inflamation, ulceration
etc., will result. Certain portions of the smaller intes­
tines loose there tone due to the stagnation and putrifaction of food material droped into the scrotum through
the inguinal canal to give rise to the annoying disease
called “hernia”. I have treated patients suffering from
hernia with increased quantities of water and lessening
the food intake, specially the proticn. They are relieved
of that trouble and arc now acting as missionaries to the
slogan Apo Vai Bheshajam.
After laborious process of digestion in the intestines
the food that remains to be digested has to climb up the
ascending colon. The Great Designer of our bodies has
stationed a second Engine in the Appedicula-Vermiformis. In that tiny organ, he has placed a red fluid which
gives an extra impetus for driving the matter upwards
through the ascending colon, not knowing the efficacy of
water in the proper digestion of food they eat a lot of
solid food and drink very sparingly the pure water. The
Appendicula-Vermiformis becomes exhausted and gives
rise to inflamation and ulceration in that small vital
organ. It is ordinarily believed that the small organ is
not at all necessary and by removing the organ, by
operation there will be no more inflamation or ulceration
in that portion of the body. Proper care not being taken
about the food and drink, the patient suffers a lot with
chronic indigestion and Anaemia. Again the food
undergoes a chemical treatment in the larger intestine

32
called the colon. The colon contains more protiens than
the body can use. More protien passes into the feces,
unused and even unchanged, or give rise to again inflamation and ulceration in the larger intestine.
The whole narration is intended to show that the
whole process of digestion requires large quantities of
liquid food, such as fruit juices and water laden vege­
tables or even water in combination with ' "'er quantities
of solid food. That makes our national economic problem
also easier by saving one out of every 3 meals and that is
not an ordinary saving in a country which has got over
400 millions feeling every time the stress of food short­
age. The Government exchequer also will save a lot by
saving millions of foreign exchange that is now being
used for the purchase of food stuffs from abroad.
