AIDS: A Wholistic Perspective

The XI International Conference on HIV/AIDS

14,000 delegates and the press from all over the world gathered to learn and share their experiences regarding HIV/AIDS... Over the course of 4 days, 5,600 scientific papers were presented, exploring the various spiritual/psychological and physiological aspects of the AIDS epidemic.

Since this Conference was sponsored by the major pharmaceutical companies, the primary emphasis of the Conference was to report on the efficacy of current AZT therapy... In addition, the World Press was tantalized by a possible biotechnological pharmaceutical breakthrough, as a solution to HIV/AIDS... The Triple Pharmaceutical Cocktail (proteases inhibitors and reverse transcripteses) designed to dramatically remove the HIV from the system, and/or slow its growth...

Leading medical researchers, who have been heavily funded by the pharmaceutical industry, urged cautious optimism to a world waiting for a potential cure... Early clinical trials seem promising... All well and good, however, the immediate problems to this conventional allopathic/biotech-nological approach is it's exorbitant price, systemic side effects, and a strong possibility that the HIV virus will mutate and become drug resistant... Since HIV/AIDS is mainly concentrated in the Third World developing nat ions, there was considerable "angst" amongst the health care officials from these nations... After all, 15 - 20 Thousand dollars per treatment protocol, is a bit steep for people from nations who median income is somewhere between $200 - $1,000 per year.

To further dampen Glaxo-Wellcome's, Bristol-Myers Squibb's, Hoffmann-LaRoche's, Roxanne Laboratories, Chiron Corporation's, Agouron's, Merck's, and Abbott Laboratories enthusiasm regarding their potential biological breakthroughs, was intense protests from San Francisco's Act Up, a gay activist group, who consistently and vehemently voiced their profound opposition to the latest allopathic biotechnological solution(s) to HIV/AIDS...

"This entire AIDS conference was bought and paid for by the pharmaceutical industry as a way to hype their deadly drugs," commented AIDS dissident Todd Swindell, "These companies create expensive products; fund and execute clinical trials that generate fraudulent data to support using these products; and buy off mainstream AIDS organizations and conferences to then push these unproven drugs down the throats of a people with AIDS. The entire AIDS treatment approach is murderously misdirected and must change now!"

In support of Act Up's perception and realization, is a growing awareness amongst the enlightened international medical community, and the lay public, that the current treatment may indeed be worse than the dis-ease... So what else is new?...

One only needs to explore the current and still in vogue allopathic (drug based model) for the treatment of cancer... 40 years of intensive scientific inquiry and experimental drug protocols has not resulted in a "cure", nor has it made any significant impact on the mortality/morbidity rates in regards to cancer... What is going on here!... It sure looks like another repeat performance down another blind alley, as the World Press, and people, still anxiously await for the magic bullet to materialize... A hi gh-tech cure... Perhaps a vaccine!... Rather unlikely though...

The plot thickens... As Dr. Leonard Horowitz, a Harvard graduate in Public Health and independent researcher, presented an abstract based on his book, "Emerging Viruses: AIDS & Ebola: Nature, Accident or Intentional?" To an amazed, shocked and at times incredulous press, Horowitz definitively and brilliantly presented the theory of HIV/AIDS being a man-made virus... The product of a Cold War biological/germ warfare program initiated in the USA during the late 1960's, early 1970's...

To further compound these horrific revelations, Horowitz in Emerging Viruses clearly indicts, through painstaking and responsible research, that those most plausibly responsible for the outbreak of the virus, are the very same individuals and institutions who are profiteering from its treatment... These institutions have largely monopolized the media, spreading fear and dis-information, in the process of creating an enormous financial empire... Could this be the biggest conspiracy/cover-up of the 20th Centu ry?... Dr. Horowitz leaves you, the reader, to draw your own conclusions...

After hearing this convincing presentation, one heads for the nearest bar to have a few stiff drinks, or worse... Kidding aside, Dr. Horowitz, in my mind, deserves a Nobel Prize, a Medal of Honor, and/or a Pulitzer Prize for his courage, integrity and meticulous exposure of our shadow self... The insidious workings of the Medical/Military/Industrial Complex...

The sad truth is that many people, particularly in the African-American community, already believe that the HIV/AIDS epidemic was intentionally created, and was specifically targeted against both the gay and black communities, both here and in Africa... This being the case, we do indeed have a serious, and needless to say potentially incendiary situation, which calls for immediate honest disclosure of the truth, and cooler heads to prevail...

Most importantly, we need to bring to public awareness THE GOOD NEWS regarding HIV/AIDS...

Advanced scientific medical research clearly indicates that:

1. HIV/AIDS is a multifactorial auto-immune dis-ease, in which HIV's role is unclear, and may not be decisive... Being HIV Positive Is Not A Death Sentence... It simply means that one has developed an antibody to a virus which, in the orthodox medical commu-nity, has been declared lethal... Many do not share this view, nor this prognosis... There are many individuals who were and are diagnosed as HIV positive, who are enjoying healthy and productive lives... (My own intuition regarding this vitally important point, is that the HIV virus, which exists throughout the biosphere of our planet, will soon be put in the same category as the flu and cold viruses... Non lethal pathogens which co-exist in nature and in ourselves - our cells... We will all soon discover and realize that our general health is a reflection and manifestation of the health of the earth's biosphere and our own awareness, spiritual, mental, emotional and biochemical... As we heal the earth, we heal ourselves... As we heal ourselves, we heal the earth...)

2. People with HIV can and are preventing, and even reversing, the onset of symptoms through the use of low cost protocols, lifestyle changes, and nutritional awareness, as clearly explained in The San Francisco Medical Research Foundations's "Project HOPE"... Honesty, Optimism, and Progressive Education, as a solution to the HIV/AIDS pandemic...

3. Medical research from all over the world has provided scientific proof that there are many inexpensive, non-toxic treatment protocols which show great promise, and are quite effective in eradicating the HIV virus from the blood... A dramatic example, which was presented at this conference by a Russian physician, demonstrated the use of laser therapy to virtually eliminate the virus from the blood... Also, many people in the wholistic medical community are quite aware of the use of ozone as a means to eradicate HIV/AIDS... Obviously, we have much to learn from the "alternative" medical community, whose remarkable work and scientific breakthroughs in regards to AIDS and other degenerative dis-eases, warrant deep consideration by the media, the orthodox medical community and national governments...

4. Through the exciting new science of psychoneuro-immunology (PNI), science is now confirming the intimate connections between the mind and body... PNI is confirming the ancient and eternal wisdom, as incorporated in naturopathic and homeopathic medicine, that our thoughts, feelings, attitudes, and beliefs are of critical importance in the course of any dis-ease/healing process... The will to live is a subjective, non-quantifiable factor in the prognosis for any and all individuals who are dealing with an apparent catastrophic illness... The power of the mind can never be underestimated, nor can the power of the physician/healer to do no harm, determine the happy outcome for one who is seeking healing...

To summarize, this endemic global health "crisis" has a silver lining contained within it... "The AIDS Pandemic" is a clarion call for greater compassion and humility; as well as new scientific inquiries into the mysteries of nature... Additionally, this man-made pandemic provides an unprecedented opportunity for developing greater spiritual, psychological and biological knowledge of our selves as human beings...

After having attended the XI International AIDS Conference, One World, One Hope, it is my heartfelt prayer and conviction that we, humanity, can turn and are turning, this global pandemic into an extraordinary opportunity for spiritual renewal, and profound personal and planetary healing...

Let The Healing And Celebration Begin, As We Empower Each Other To Move From The Frequency Of Fear Into the Frequency Of Freedom; While Taking Greater Responsibility For Ourselves, Our Cells, The Earth, And Each Other!...

Through this process of healing and awakening, we will individually and collectively realize that "Life is not a terminal affair, but rather a glorious, infinitely beautiful, mysterious and eternal affair..."
