INTRODUCTION
This book is mostly about fats.
Without fats, plants would not grow their flowers and fruits. Without fats, the flower of a plant could not form both the stamen and the pistil, which means without fats, a plant could not form its sexual organs. Without fats, an animal could not reproduce. Without fats, an animal could not form its sexual organs (its urethra and its testes for the males, and for the female no sexual organs either. This just tells the importance of fats, cholesterol, steroids, etc.
The seed of a plant contains mostly fat. It is fat which separates a seed from the rest of the plant. That is why oil floats on water. Oil floats on water especially to separate the seed of a plant from the rest of the plant, from the water of the plant.
Fat not only separates the seed from the water of the plant but it also separates the oxygen from the seed, and also from the rest of the plant, that is why a plant is constantly getting rid of its oxygen. The main function of a plant is to get rid of its oxygen in order to form the seed, without this mechanism, the oxygen of the plant would burn the seed, and the seed would not be formed.
If the seed of a plant is formed in the absence of oxygen, it makes a lot of sense that the sexual organs of an animal cannot be formed in the presence of oxygen.
Fat is also important in the reproduction of plants and animals precisely for the little content of oxygen in the same.
The Author
OXYGEN
I don’t know where oxygen is coming from.
But I guess it is coming from the sun.
Where else?
Everything is coming from the sun.
All chemicals, acids, bases, plants, animals…
everything comes from up there.
And from nowhere else.
* * *
What is the sun? What is light?
Who knows?
Nobody knows.
Even Einstein did not know.
The astronomers? The only thing these astronomers know is to make use of the lens invented by Galileo Galilei… This is the only thing our astronomers know for sure.
* * *
Our astronomers know for sure that the sun contains helium. Anybody knows that the sun contains helium since helium is the sun itself. You don’t have to be an astronomer. Helium is the name of the sun in Greek. So all you have to have, for sure, is helium up there… that is to say, you have to have Helios
in the Helios
. . . . This Helios
is the name of the sun in Greek. I repeat, that is why the astronomers know for sure that there is helios in the Helios… probably this is the only thing our astronomers know for sure.
* * *
Our astronomers claim that the sun is a burning star. If you had read my humble books, you would know that I say that the sun is just a flower, its rays being the petals of this flower.
* * *
I also maintain in these humble books that the sun is just a seed,
quite similar in its chemical composition to the seed of any tree, and even more similar to our brain, which I also maintain is a seed.
* * *
Our astronomers claim that the sun is a burning star, but I maintain that the sun is not the burning star of our astronomers, but a ball of sugar, of glucose, that is a combination of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Its chemical formula is C6H12O6.
* * *
I also maintain that if the sun is not a piece, a big chunk of sugar, of glucose, it has to be sort of a diamond, which is reflecting the light from another star or stars.
* * *
However, the astronomers might be right, that the sun is a burning flame. But if the sun is a flame, where’s the oxygen burning the helium, or the hydrogen, or the carbon coming from?
* * *
Since a flame is not a flame without oxygen, and this oxygen can’t come from the flame. It doesn’t come from the flame, it rather goes to the flame. It has to come from outside. Don’t you think so?
* * *
What comes from the flame is both water and carbon dioxide. Since what the flame does is to combine carbon, or hydrogen, or helium with oxygen.
* * *
Then after this precious combination, both the water and the carbon dioxide form glucose, or sugar.
* * *
The sun doesn’t have to be a burning flame. What the sun has to be is the product of a big fire, a product from the universe which seems to be a big, big, fire and nothing else.
A FEW DRAWINGS AND PRELIMINARY
DESCRIPTIONS ABOUT THE MAIN
SUBJECTS THIS BOOK IS DEALING WITH
missing image fileA TREE
When I started with these kinds of studies I did not know much about trees in general, and about leaves in particular. The only thing I knew was that the leaves of plants release a lot of oxygen, and since these leaves give off oxygen, I thought plants did not breathe, and only animals breathe. I was totally wrong, for plants also breathe like animals, the only thing is that they breathe through gills instead of through the lungs. Of course, plants do breathe oxygen, but through their roots. What the roots do is to extract the oxygen from the water of the soil. So, plants breathe like fish. The branches
of a tree play the same role as the gills of a fish, or of a fungus in the breathing system.
Branch
comes from breathe,
and from brew.
Branches
mean branquias
or the gills
of a fish. The branches
and the leaves
of a plant are the tools through which the plant breathes,
together, of course, with the roots, the entrance door of the plant to oxygen, to the oxygen from the water of the soil.
A FISH
A fish breathes through their gills. Gill
is gal
in Swedish. This gal
has to do with halare,
the halare
of the halogens
of the sea. Helare
is to breathe. Halogen
comes from halos,
which is salt
in Greek. The salts of the sea breathe.
The interchange of electrons between the base of these salts and the acid constitutes a system of respiration. The most important of these halogens is iodine, the non-metallic element of the sea salts, which is part of the thyroid gland and which regulates the growth of the body of an animal. Not only its growth, but respiration as well.
These gills of the fish are leaf like, quite similar to the ordinary leaves of a plant, but instead of throwing the oxygen out, they bring the oxygen in. So leaves in general are dealing with oxygen. They are the tools to throw the oxygen out of a plant, or to bring the oxygen into the body of a fish, and also into a plant.
missing image fileTHE THYROID-PARATHYROID GLANDS
The thyroid-parathyroid glands contain iodine, which is one of the most important halogens of the sea. Iodine is the main chemical component of the thyroid-parathyroid glands, together with calcium. Calcium-iodine
is what makes animals breathe. This salt of the sea is totally indispensable to breathe. It is located close to the brain because it is an intrinsic part of the brain. Brain
means breathe,
so both the thyroid gland with its iodine
and the brain work together. One helps the other to breathe. The iodine of the thyroid is some sort of valve at the entrance to the lungs to absorb oxygen from the atmosphere.
THE SUN
The sun contains hydrogen and helium, according to our astronomers. Helium
means sun,
it comes from Helios,
which is sun in Greek. Apparently, the Greeks gave this name Helios
to the star because they found helium there. Helium is an inert gas, non-flammable, good to inflate balloons and dirigibles, and a little heavier than hydrogen. But I would say that the sun also contains carbon, and it seems to me that it contains a lot more carbon than hydrogen. It is quite possible that the sun contains only carbon, pure carbon. Most scientists think that the sun is a flame, a ball of fire. But it could be that there is no fire at all in the big star, it could be a huge ball of carbon, a giant diamond, or even a big ball of glucose, of sugar, and that the light it gives off might be reflected light coming from another star or stars around the universe, or the light from the Milky Way galaxy, which seems to be a real ball of fire.
A FLOWER
The flower of a plant, seems to be just a picture of the sun, the petals being the rays of the sun. The petals of a flower have a lot to do with the vertebral column of an animal, that is a combination of calcium and phosphorus. These petals seem to be the skeletal system of the plant, of the trunk of the plant. These petals are the ones generating the sexual organs of the flower, that is to say, stamens and the pistil. A flower has a lot to do with the reproductive organs of an animal.
missing image fileTHE EYE OF AN ANIMAL
The eyes of an animal are a picture of the sun, and something quite similar to the flower of a plant. The eye lens is mostly carbon that absorbs sunlight, some sort of a membrane of phospholipids surrounded by a coating of protein. This membrane of phospholipids plus a film of protein is similar to the membrane surrounding the leaf of a plant, which is a door to sunlight, both to the entrance of sunlight and to the exit of oxygen.
missing image fileTHE EYELASHES
The eyelashes are the flower petals of the eye. The eyelashes have a lot to do with the rays of the sun. As a matter of fact, they open and close to graduate the amount of light the eyes should receive. In both of my recent books, We are carrying a tree right in front of our face,
and in The Doldrums, Christ and the Plantanism,
I maintain that our mouth, our nose, our eyes and our ears represent a tree. The mouth being the roots of the tree, the nose is the trunk, and the lens
of the eye being the equivalent to the seed of the fruit.
THE BRAIN OF AN ANIMAL
The brain of an animal is a seed.
The equivalent to the seed
of the fruit of a plant. The brain of an animal has a lot to do with the sun itself. The brain is quite similar to a walnut in shape. The brain is some sort of walnut, in shape and in chemical composition. When we eat a walnut or any other seed of a plant, a bean, a cherry, a pea, we are eating the sun itself, a picture of the sun, a perfect picture of the star up there in the skies. Brain
means breathe.
It comes from brew,
which means fermentation,
and especially respiration.
The brain is the beginning of the vertebral column. We not only breathe through our brain, but also through the whole bunch of our vertebrae. Our bones in general are an intrinsic part of our respiration. (In particular for the calcium that the bones contain). Calcium is very important in respiration for it is the basic portion of the sea salt calcium iodide,
the breathing salt
of the thyroid-parathyroid
glands, which are part of the brain.
THE BRAIN, THE SKELETAL SYSTEM,
AND THE SEXUAL ORGANS
The sexual organs of an animal are just a continuation of the brain and of the vertebral column. Brain
means brew,
which is to ferment
and to breathe
and even branch,
the branch of a tree, and branquias
or gills
in Spanish. The brain is a picture
of the sun, it is also a seed,
the seed which originates in the body of the animal. The brain and skeletal system are part of the same thing, both constitute the breathing system
of the animal and both are the ones producing the reproductive organs at the end of the vertebral column. The vertebral column of an animal is quite similar to the petals of a flower, which originate the sexual organs of the flower (stamens and pistil).
THE RIBS
Ribs
mean roof
and reef,
in Spanish arriba
or above
or overhead
and also arrecife
which is roof
and arriba
in Spanish. The ribs are the most important part of the lungs, of the respiratory system. They are an extension given to both the brain
which means to breathe
and to the skeletal system, which is an extension of the brain.
Without the ribs around the lungs, an animal couldn’t breathe. The ribs not only protect the lungs, but they create the lungs. The lungs of an animal are originated by the brain
and the vertebral column. The chemical material of the ribs is quite similar to that of the petals of a flower. The petals of the flower of a plant are the ribs
of the flower. The ribs expand and contract thanks to the iodine and the calcium of the thyroid-parathyroid glands. The iodine of the thyroid forces the ribs to expand while the
