Place them on a table before you. Take one of these glasses of water and hold it in one hand while with the other hand you shake the fingertips into the glass but without touching the water. Feel the odic pr\u0101\u1e47a falling from the hand and fingers into the water, being absorbed into the water and held there. Thus we have mixed two forms of odic power, that of the physical-health odic pr\u0101\u1e47a and the odic manifestation of water. This creates magnetism when these two forces come together in the external, odic water. Mark the glass of water that you have magnetized so that only you will later be able to identify it, then place it with the other five glasses. Switch the glasses around so that it is not apparent which glass was magnetized. If you are doing this exercise by yourself, you may close your eyes when you switch the glasses so that you do not identify the glass that has been magnetized. Now, the test. Close your eyes and drink from each glass. You close your eyes so that your taste will be most keen, and you will not be distracted by anything you see, having your entire mind on your taste buds. As you taste each glass of water, you will notice a distinct difference in the taste of the water in the glass you magnetized with odic pr\u0101\u1e47a. <br><br>You will achieve a great control over your pr\u0101\u1e47ic sheath by learning to breathe diaphragmatically. The following experiments, coupled with diaphragmatic breathing, will help you awaken your own knowledge of the controls over odic pr\u0101\u1e47a and your own odic pr\u0101\u1e47ic sheath. Take a deep breath through the nostrils, at the same time holding a mental picture of taking odic pr\u0101\u1e47a into the body from within the air. You may visualize it in the form of a vapor, like the odic pr\u0101\u1e47a you perhaps saw around your hand. Visualize the odic pr\u0101\u1e47a going all the way down to your solar plexus, while the air is only held in your lungs. The odic pr\u0101\u1e47a stays in your solar plexus while you exhale air from the lungs. From the solar plexus area, the odic pr\u0101\u1e47a will automatically flow through the muscle tissue to the blood and begin to store up in various nerve centers in reserve for future use. In mastering this exercise, you will build up the vital body energies and calm the nerves. It is not necessary to do this often, only when you feel the need of storing up odic pr\u0101\u1e47a. <br><br>Odic pr\u0101\u1e47a is often used unknowingly for healing various physical distresses, emotional upsets and mental strains. A child runs to his mother; the odic pr\u0101\u1e47a coming from the mother, freely flowing toward the child, comforts any distress the child may be going through. The child runs off vigorously, taking a good supply of odic pr\u0101\u1e47a from his mother through absorption. You can supply odic pr\u0101\u1e47a to any part of your body that may be ailing and gain some relief. For emotional distress, store odic pr\u0101\u1e47a in the solar plexus, and to relieve mental strain, store it in the upper back and chest area. <br><br>As you inhale odic pr\u0101\u1e47a, draw a mental picture of the process. When you make a mental picture, you are also employing odic force to form the picture, for all mental pictures are made out of odic force. After the mental picture of the physical area in your body that is in distress is well formed, visualize the odic pr\u0101\u1e47a being sent to that particular organ or part of the body. Inhale, then hold your breath a few seconds as you visualize the odic pr\u0101\u1e47a flowing from the solar plexus to that area of your physical body. When you manage to flow enough odic pr\u0101\u1e47a into the distressed area of your physical body and the health body becomes more vibrant, you will notice the distress ease. Do this for short periods of time. Remember, inhale, hold a few seconds while sending the energy to the distressed area, then exhale the air, holding the odic pr\u0101\u1e47a in the part of the body that needs extra energy most. \u201cWhere awareness goes energy flows.\u201d All breathing should be through the nostrils, not the mouth, deep and slow, natural and rhythmic. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Experience Odic Pr\u0101\u1e47a Fill six glasses with water.
