Inhale through nostrils for four seconds, and upon one
     exhalation, speak slowly: 

     Open, O thou world-sustaining Sun, the entrance unto Truth
     hidden by the vase of dazzling light.

     Again inhale for four seconds, and breathe out the following
     sentence upon one exhalation as before: 

     Soften the radiation of Thy Illuminating Splendor, that I
     may behold Thy True Being.

I have a clipping from a Los Angeles newspaper telling of the prophet’s arriving there.  He takes the front page with the captivating headline:  “Women Didn’t Think Till They Put On Corsets”.  The interview tells about his mysteriousness, his aloofness, his bird-like-diet, and his personal beauty.  “Despite his seventy-three years, Ha’nish evidences no sign of age.  His keen blue eyes showed no sign of wavering.  There were no wrinkles on his face, and his walk was that of a man of forty.”  The humor of this becomes apparent when we mention that at Ha’nish’s trial, three or four years ago, he was proven to be thirty-five years old!

Being thus warned as to the accuracy of American journalism, we shall not be taken in by the repeated statements that the Mazdaznan prophet is a millionaire.  But there is no doubt that he is wealthy; and as all Americans wish to be wealthy, I will quote his formula of prosperity, his method of accomplishing what might be called the Individual Revolution: 

When hungry and you do not know where to get your next piece of bread, do not despair.  Thy Father, all-loving, has provided, you with everything that will meet all cases of emergency.

Place your teeth tightly together, with tongue pressing against the lower teeth and lips parted.  Breathe in, close lips immediately, exhaling through the nostrils.  Breathe again; if saliva forms in your mouth, hold your breath so you can swallow it first before you exhale.  You thus take out of the air the metal-substance contained therein; you can even taste the iron which you convert into substance required for making the blood.  Should you feel that, although you have sufficient iron in the blood, there is a lack of copper and zinc and silver, place upper teeth over lower, keep lower lip tightly to lower teeth, now breathe and you can even taste the metals named.  Then should you feel you need more gold element for your brain functions, place your back teeth together just as if you were to grind the back teeth, taking short breaths only.  You will then learn to know that there is gold and silver all around us.  That our bodies are filled with quite a quantity of gold.
