Benefits of marijuana continue to be proved

Saturday, November 24th, 2007

The inundation of undeniable truth concerning the benefits of marijuana is fast approaching the mainstream grave misconceptions just like a tsunami – the escalating mountain of evidence that marijuana has boundless benefits for the well-being of the members of the human race is burying the lies that have been instigated and maintained by the money and power interests of the multinational corporations.

Never mind the hundreds of respectable medical studies that have demonstrated without question, marijuana’s ability as a superior palliative remedy for so many modern diseases, now marijuana has even been shown to be helpful to the developing young adult’s ability to socialize and excel at academic performance. Yes!!, that’s right, last week we were given the results of the longitudinal and broad-based Swiss study that demonstrated the beneficial results of marijuana for young people in all aspects of their lives. Against all the fear-mongering and all the accepted ill-promoted misinformation, that’s right – the study demonstrated that the use of regular marijuana is good for teens. Those young adults who participated in the marijuana consciousness with regularity and over the course of time, were actually better at academics, better at feeling comfortable with their peers, and even better sportsmen and women. Well what do you know!! – The kids have been ahead of the studies all along. Their knowledge has sprung from open-minded experience and connectedness to the essential intuition that is inherent in us all – but is all too often – denied or ignored by the mature adults in the society, for reasons that are too numerous to list but which are all motivated by fear. In today’s new age of everything imaginable – the elders who should have wisdom are instead imprisoned by their own old beliefs, habits and fears to the detriment of what is needed most in today’s new world – tolerance and understanding. Marijuana is the plant of peace. It is the plant of higher consciousness. The youth are not yet jaded, thankfully. They have seen the vision – bigger than what our civilization teaches. They know that the environment is threatened by the man-made technologies. Through the regular re-connection to the earth via a molecule of vegetation of the highest consciousness, the young people today have been employing the aid of the marijuana experience, despite what has been touted as science – but which has been transparent to the acute perceptions of the youth. Marijuana has benefits for all aspects of personhood that encompass the physical, psychological & even the spiritual dimensions. This latest study is just one of the particulars conducted under the auspices of stringent scientific methodology which seeks to measure the performance and health effects that occur with marijuana. And as with all the particularized studies having to do with the effects of marijuana – it is/ has been/ and will be consistently proven that marijuana is beneficial- for the body, mind and spirit of the person. Each of the modern studies imparts just one of the nearly limitless benefits to be derived from marijuana (in any number of imaginable delivery methods) for the citizens of the planet. Smoke it, vaporize it, eat it, drink it, use it in a patch, a suppository, a pill – dissect it and utilize only parts of it – copy only parts of it – regardless of what science has been able to imagine to test – every time – marijuana can be shown to have benefits for the person.

But today’s scientific method is reductionistic, time consuming, expensive and never quite gets to the bottom line- which is simply - marijuana benefits the body, mind and soul of anyone who partakes of its nourishment regularly. It is good for us – when we are sick, when we need creativity, when we feel disconnected, depressed, in pain, without breath, out of control or in turmoil. Just a few weeks ago, there was the ironic and very positive result on the effects of smoking marijuana over the long term. Lo and behold! the results suggest quite clearly that not only does marijuana not contribute in any way to impaired lung function or to any cancerous propensity whatsoever, but in fact, marijuana actually diminished the incidences of lung cancer – in the population that utilized marijuana regularly. That’s right! Smoking marijuana helps the lungs. It prevents cancer of the lungs. (It expands the lungs – which means it expands the capacity for increased oxygenation to the entire being, which is a topic in itself.) And now we have the well-deserved proof that employing marijuana as a young person helps social, academic and athletic prowess. No real surprise! – unless you bought the stacks of lies put forth by the government that swore there were those weapons of mass destruction. The young people know the truth – at that gut level of knowing that adults continuously move further away from with the passing years. Marijuana balances the autonomic nervous system!! That is why it is the experience of well-being. That is why – it helps the young adult to cope in this crooked world. And for that very amazing effect alone – marijuana has untold benefits for the health of the whole person, which can be evidenced in how well the social adjustment is, how well they perform academically and athletically. But – the truth of this majestic and easily cultivated ancient herb’s extremely compatible and most beneficial interaction with the human organism – has been hidden by purposeful lies – for money and power – which should also be No Big Surprise. But now – the truth is out. Marijuana is good for the mind, good for the body and even good for the spirit. It is the most utilized illegal substance in the whole world – so there is a huge body of the population that knows the truth. Marijuana is an aid to superior oxygenation of the organism by its expansion of the full complement of the muscular-neuronal-respiratory and circulatory axis of the living human being. So it is good for the lungs, good for social and academic excellence, and one of the more recent studies – that has not been touted – but is certainly an amazing fact – the brain actually does get bigger with marijuana. We grow new brain cells!! It’s called Neuorgenesis – and it happens with marijuana – hold that thought and what it means til next weeks talk. And we mustn’t forget the topic of Halting Cancer with marijuana and what that means for so many who share the marijuana experience.
