I am writing this post in advance.  Today’s date is February 13, 2012.

I have decided to return back to Medical School and finish my MD to ultimately become an Integrative Psychiatrist.

I am writing this because I process information in a very unique way.  Most people study for the USMLE (Medical Licensing Boards) by taking Kaplan courses and study typical board review books.

However, for me, I need to know the big picture of medicine in general and then learn the details by reading journal articles and books to understand the details.

So for me, I plan to read medical journals and textbooks, even specialty textbooks to understand EVERYTHING.

My goal is complete knowledge of everything.

And I am not doing this simply to pass the exam but rather be an expert in everything.  In other words, I am doing this as a type of meditation.

When I took the MCAT, I got a low score first of 23 and next 26.  A good score is anything over a 30.

This happened despite having a perfect 4.0 GPA in the pre-med subjects.  I even took Kaplan but my score went to only a 26.

This was because even though I had top grades, I really did not understand the subjects very well.  I simply studied hard but after the exams were over, I forgot what I had learned.

I also did not take many advanced science subjects so I did not have repeated exposure to important concepts in the sciences.

And therein lies the key.  The key is to have repeated exposure over and over and over.  But this cannot be processed by using the brain in a linear fashion.

In other words, I am interested in what is known as Lightspeed Learning or Subconscious Learning.

This is done by skimming material by flipping the pages over and over and over.  This way, the subconscious mind picks up the details at a rapid pace.

Anyways, I plan to perfect this “reading meditation” in the next six months.

Also, this is strengthened not by just studying USMLE topics but also world affairs and even novels.

The key is to build a whole new synaptic network in the brain integrating both the left and right brain.

And the secret ingredient to being able to read for 18 hours a day is to not read but rather flip pages and also to do alternate day fasting.  This is because fasting integrates all the 7 chakras or energy centers in the body, thereby gradually awakening the pineal gland and the medha nadi in the brain.  This is the same activation that allowed Swami Vivekananda to rapidly read books and retain the information with superb accuracy.

The whole point I am talking about is effortless learning.  Truly the USMLE should not be difficult.  It should be easy.  

Studying is not a chore but rather a meditation.  When we take it as a meditation instead of as a means to an end, we realize that all we are doing is Yoga.

So really the process of preparing for the USMLE is the same process as preparing for Enlightenment.

This is far far different than simply taking a Kaplan course and drinking energy drinks and massive cups of coffee trying to muck up an exam.

Anyways, each method has its own value.

So this is my strategy.  It is reading meditation that is facilitated by alternate day fasting and daily warm water enemas.

I will post this on various forums once I achieve my goal of passing the USMLE.

Thank you.

So, I had my feast about 8 hours ago.  I also had a mini meal about one hour ago unexpectedly.  Interestingly, I just had a small bowel movement which means that whatever I ate 8 hours ago already got fully digested.  That is a great sign!

I have not weighed myself as I have to change the batteries in my weighing scale.  However, I think that I am slowly burning fat and building muscle at the same time.

I do not think that I am rapidly losing weight or anything like that.  I think this is because the feasting and then fasting for 48 hours is making the body’s digestion, assimilation, and elimination extremely efficient.

It is like the root of a tree.  Basically, due to my daily enemas, I am also absorbing nutrients much much better.  So in fact, the amount of food that I am eating is nourishing me very well.

I think that I can even go 72 hours without food, but I am hesitant to do so.  This is because I would like to stabilize at 48 hours.  I am having very good results with 48 hours.

Like I wrote earlier, yesterday I experienced a kind of euphoria.  It was truly amazing and a great gift of fasting.

It was like being in a lucid and constant post-orgasmic state.

Basically I am no longer doing this to “lose weight” or even to get six pack abs.

That is because all those things are ephemeral.  I have already lost about 25 pounds and am looking quite good.  I think I do need to lose another 25 to get close to a six pack.

However, this 48 hour feasting and fasting has opened up my eyes to the much more lucrative idea of lasting health and mental satisfaction.

To be honest, the reason why I wanted to get a six pack was to attract more girls and thus boost my happiness.

However, now with the daily hot water enemas and feasting and fasting, I am already experiencing a type of yogic happiness.  The hot water enemas interestingly are giving a type of sexual fulfillment because the colon gets cleaned and detoxified.

This invigorates the root chakra and balances it with the head chakra.  And the fasting cleanses all the 7 chakras.  Chakras are the subtle energy centers in the body that house all the subconscious emotions and channel cosmic energy throughout the body.

Anyways, the point is is that I am already starting to experience a lot of happiness.  I could be more happy perhaps, but this is the greatest amount of happiness I have experienced in the past six months.

I am also glad that I do not need to exercise and that I have more time to read on the Internet.

I still would like to get a six pack, but through gradual fasting and not crash dieting or vigorous exercising.

The truth is that yesterday was like some kind of psychaedelic experience for me.  It was very spiritual and amazing.

I can truly feel my body getting healthier and realize now that food is simply an external source of energy.  But there is also an inner source of energy that is getting awakened.

In the past, I could not go without eating every 3 hours or so.  Now, I am able to go for 48 hours.  It is simply an exercise and letting go of all the fears such as the fear of losing muscle, getting fat, or dying!

I have not been that great at the pyramid meditation lately.  But my mind seems to be automatically going into a meditative state with greater self reflection and fewer and fewer thoughts.

I am planning to return back to medical school in May to finish up my basic sciences and then go on for rotations.  I was afraid of taking the USMLE boards but the feasting and fasting is allowing me to gradually let go of that fear.  I am truly learning a lot about the human body, medicine, and health as a whole now.  Medical education is all about the drugs and now I finally realize that.  Fasting is the cure for basically everything.

I do think we should all (males) have six pack abs.  But I think that should be obtained through feasting and fasting instead of vigorous cardiovascular exercise.  Just imagine if we all ate every few days or even once a week.  We would all live to be over 200 years old on average and we would would all be in a euphoric meditative state.

This is in contrast to our present day model of chasing six pack abs in the gym on the treadmill hoping to catch a hot girl!

Anyways, for now I am still eating once every 48 hours although I could go longer.  I may not lose fat as fast but it is better to be thoroughly grounded in this routine because this cycle of feasting and fasting greatly raises the chi energy or pranic energy in the body.  It is encouraging, though, that I seem to be absorbing the nutrition from food at a high greater capacity than ever before.
