Authors’ Notes to this revised and enlarged edition
Since we gave the seminar on “Freeing Yourself from the Myth of Aging,” in Seattle, in May of 2014, the Sage has enlarged our understanding. In particular, we were made to understand the function of our genes after our reproductive period has been completed, to meet the needs of maturation, and later, aging. Consequently, we have added a section on the functions of our genes in general, and the additional function they develop when we enter a certain age. For example, this additional function, called adaptation function, adapts our reproductive organs to take on the new task of providing our body with additional life force. Besides helping our body adapt, our genes also adapt our mind and psyche to the new requirements that go with this new time in our lives. We have also added to this handout a much needed understanding of the harmful effect of our false use of language on the ability of our genes to function healthily. Accordingly, we have included lists of the specific mistaken ideas, beliefs, and images that need to be deprogrammed in order to heal our genes.
Another change the Sage led us to make concerns familiarizing ourselves with the fact that every Cosmic Principle of Harmony is a Helper. We have been guided to revise the deprogramming instructions accordingly.
