We teach how the brain functions and the transcendence of thought in human life. We give autonomy to the patients; they must be their own doctors. We teach them, we advise and help them, and it is they who start up the natural mechanisms of healing and change the way of their lives. I’m going to limit myself here to reproducing the first and final paragraphs I wrote for the prologue to my first book "The Will Overcomes Pain" (1973): "God put into human nature marvelous capabilities which are waiting to be used." …As you continue reading, I know you will be thinking about the transcendence these things could have if they were generalized to the maximum within Medicine, and also outside, in any human activity. I am also very aware of the skepticism of those who speculate about the difficulties of performing surgical interventions without so much as a milligram of anesthetics. But even to these persons I would have to say that between surgical interventions with psychological anesthesia and nothing at all, there is a wide range of possibilities that are within the reach of everyone. Everyone is free to mark out their own goals, but please, do not cancel out your own possibilities thinking that you are not capable. If you do so, you are programming your brain in a negative way. You must think that what others have managed to do, that you, too, are capable of doing so, and that you need to walk along your own path with faith.” And in the last paragraph of the introduction to the second edition, I stated, and I am able to repeat it here and now with the same conviction: "The point which my own experience has reached today is clear, diaphanous. Things have become simpler and simpler as the well- being of my patients increases, because they are learning how to use the marvelous energies of their souls…, through their thought." When the time comes that the basic knowledge about human being that I have acquired during my lengthy experience is introduced in Primary School, very positive changes will enrich our society. The author 3 PART ONE -1- TO THE READER Dear reader, I am going to tell you something about my professional experience, in the hopes that this will help you come to understand a little better some of your own capabilities that as a hum being you have, and in particular what your own thought signifies in your life: a real program that the computer of your brain is going to develop and try to make real in your life by using every possibility within its reach. Do not look within these pages for any "magic formula", because it does not exist. In any case, in the relationships between human beings, the "magic touch" is provided by the love and trust that we are able to awaken in those that need us. Words lose their meaning and force without this “magic touch”, and things just do not work the same. Love is a necessary catalyst in the relationship between patient and noesitherapist. Disease is, ordinarily, a lack of love in people's lives, which is translated into a psychosomatic disharmony. Psychologically and physically the disease is a request for love. If preventive medicine is the best medicine, then there is no better prophylaxis than to accomplish love's commandments. And later on you will come to see that there is an obvious scientific explanation for this. The non-medical readers need not worry in the least if they do not understand the meaning of some of the medical terms used throughout these pages. They can consult the index at the back of the book and continue reading, and will see their knowledge of themselves enriched and the horizons of their possibilities and hopes about life broadened. They will have come to understand, in addition, the meaning of some of the terms typical to our profession that before had no meaning for them whatsoever. 5 -2- RESULTS AND THEIR IMPORTANCE Results are the most important thing in Medicine. I can be full of science and my knowledge encyclopedic, but if my patient is not cured and his health not improved, what good is all my science to him? If the patient finds the way to his healing thanks to my teaching, this is good. First of all I must teach the patient to want his good health; he must think about the well-being he needs, and as a consequence he will discover unknown capabilities inside himself. In the face of a positive result, we need to consider that the positive aspect of the result is more important than the knowledge about the mechanisms that made possible the positive result, which at the time might be beyond our understanding. What is really urgent is to learn the way to repeat this when necessary, without renouncing, of course, a complete understanding. The hungry man needs to eat, even though he is not aware of the digestive and metabolic processes that are going to satisfy his hunger. Humanity is hungry for solutions to its problems. Since the 4th of July 1972 -when I operated on Erika Lakner for varicose veins and thrombosed hemorrhoids, using a personal method to obtain psychological anesthesia, many hundreds of patients have passed through my operating theater. All of these patients permitted me to perform my surgical work under volitive psychoanalgesia (VPA), as I have come to refer to it. These patients are completely conscious on the operating table, and with great well-being. They listen to music, talk about the things they want to or they watch themselves in a mirror observing their perfect self-control and healthy look. They are completely free and unfettered while we are doing our work. And, at the end, they depart from the operating theater on foot and return to their normal lives. 7 The mirror I have just mentioned, by the way, is no mere whim or triviality for my patients. No; the mirror provides my patients with a reflection of themselves during these very special circumstances - while I am operating on them without chemical anesthesia. The mirror gives them, with only one glance, overall information about their state and their well-being, about their happiness, the joy they are living through in this experience that is so enriching for their lives. The mirror seems to be the best biofeedback apparatus that exists, and it encourages their own self-confidence and tranquility. Imagine a baker, a butcher, a university professor or a housewife after a complicated surgical intervention for varicose veins, without the need for chemical anesthesia. They leave the operating theater on foot to recover their normal lives. Think, in addition, that with the creative power of their thought they overcome their previous dependence on chemical treatments, to their advantage. They did not need antibiotics at all and I have not had so much as even one case of postoperative infection since the year 1972. This fact was presented in the Fourth World Congress on Pain (Seattle, Washington, USA, 1984) and in the European Chapter of the International Society of Phlebology (London, September 1985) among others. These are results that are repeated on a daily basis, and which must be taken into account. These results are in sharp contrast to the high percentage of postoperative infections observed in all hospitals all over the world. We must ponder on the significance of this. In transferring my surgical experience over to Maternity, I discovered what I have come to refer to as Maternofetal Psychoanalgesia (MFP), which has signified a revolutionary advance in maternal education methods, due to the ease and effectiveness in imparting these teachings to mothers. One sole training session during any of the months of pregnancy suffices. 9 The woman acquires an enormous degree of independence and self- confidence, and in addition the obvious benefits for the child who comes into the world in this way.
