Beginning Iridology Guide - Weebly

Finally the great lung specialist, recognizing the futility of his efforts, ordered John
to pack his trunk as quickly as possible for El Paso or Phoenix, the paradise of "one
lungers". Finding himself (thanks to long continued illness and expensive doctoring)
short of the necessary funds required for an extended sojourn in the southern mecca of
consumptives, John decided as a last and forlorn hope to obtain my opinion of his
case.
Evidently having been informed about our way of doing things, he asked me to
examine his eyes and give him a correct inventory and an estimate of his remaining
anatomy. While I found some parts missing and others badly damaged, I did not
consider his case entirely hopeless.
From the records in the iris I proceeded to unravel his history as outlined in the
preceding sketch. When the diagnosis was finished he asked me whether I "got it"
psychometrically or mediumistically. I assured him that I did not have to draw on any
supernatural powers; that, on the contrary, my "reading" from the iris was based on
very simple and strictly scientific facts and principles. By means of a magnifying
mirror and a chart of the iris he was himself able to locate and to recognize the
principal landmarks. He had to admit that the record in his eyes exactly tallied with
his past history and present symptoms, and he felt convinced there was "something in
it".
I assured him that though his case was somewhat complicated and advanced, I by no
means considered him incurable since he possessed youth, some hundred and thirty
pounds of flesh and the odds and ends of an originally good constitution. Only an
actual trial could determine the possibility of cure. If there was left in his organism
sufficient vitality and if his kidneys, intestines and lungs were not damaged beyond
repair, his system would soon respond to the purifying and invigorating influences of
natural treatment.
Furthermore, it was explained to him that when properly assisted Nature always
works her cures in a perfectly orderly manner, in harmony with certain well defined
laws of crisis and periodicity. In conformity with these laws there would be about six
weeks of general improvement especially noticeable in the digestive organs. First of
all the bowels, which, "in spite" of laxatives and cathartics, had been sluggish and
constipated for a lifetime, would begin to act normally and freely. Then, as his system
became purified and invigorated, Nature would commence in earnest her work of
elimination and repair. The latent chronic conditions would then become acute.
Febrile diseases and skin eruptions long ago suppressed, as shown in the iris, would
reappear and this time run their course in regular, natural order.
I also informed him that during these crisis periods he would experience various
symptoms of acute poisoning such as are commonly produced by quinin, coal tar
products, mercury, iodin, etc., because these drug poisons accumulated in the course
of many years would be stirred up in their lairs and would be eliminated in due season
each under its own peculiar symptom.
When I had proceeded thus far in my prognosis John arose somewhat abruptly,
grabbed his hat and started for the door, saying he would come back some other time-
-that he must now hasten to keep another important appointment.
