His protocol for respiratory health as it relates to Covid-19 is outlined on the next pages.

A. CORONAVIRUS / COVID19 1. Symptoms Cough Fever Shortness of breath

2. Seek medical attention if these symptoms occur Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath Persistent pain or pressure in the chest New confusion or inability to arouse Bluish lips or face

B. APPROACH Metabolic Processes versus shooting at germs

1. Colds, bacteria’s, viruses are always present Therefore, not the cause due to temporary immune depression

• weakened body overall

• Weakened immune response

• lowered hormonal levels

• physical and psychological stress

• poor sleep

C. STAGES Prevention Early onset Fully developed After effects, secondary infections and inflammation

D. CONNECTED TO IMMUNITY OF RESPIRATORY TRACT Nasal cavity - air is moistened and cleaned

• Temperature maintained between 88-93 degrees

• Immunocompetent cells (example is beta lymphocytes)

form first line of defense

• Filtration of air happens as long as there is proper levels of mucus and temperature

• Excessively high or low temperatures shut down cleansing functions

• Staying in excessively warm or dry rooms is a precursor to an upper respiratory issue

• Colds usually triggered by viruses not bacteria’s, although secondary infections usually occur, this causes inflammation in all organs of respiratory tract

YOU’RE A REAL

GEM

According to Seneca- “A gem cannot be polished without frication nor man perfected without trials.”-Grinding, sanding, drilling, tumbling, hammering, and polishing are terms used in the gem refining process but can’t we all relate those gritty terms to the day-to-day of life as well, especially if one is on the spiritual path? The trials and tribulations are necessary to refine the coarseness of the average, in order to attain the polish of the enlightened. Astara’s teachings are ornamented with precious gems throughout and the connection is perfectly reflected in the following excerpt:

“Precious gems, being the highest developed expression of the mineral kingdom, often posses extraordinary magnetism. They can be employed by their owners as focal points for inflowing pranic forces. Since they are the most highly developed bodies of the mineral kingdom, they are also capable of absorbing enormous charges of mental reflecting ether.” Astara’s Book of Life Third Degree.

Below are the major gens of Astara and their accompanying levels of spiritual refinement. So you see, as a student of Astara, You Really Are A Gem!

- The gold Crux Astara with the green emerald in its heart is the symbol of the Second Initiation and can only be worn by those who have obtained it. (Third Degree Forward)

- The Ruby Cross the symbol of the Third Degree. Wear it not pridefully or with piety, but with honor and quiet humility. 3:22- The Amethyst Cross “Hail Seeker of the Amethyst Cross” 5: 1 :20.
