Digital Dr Stone — Writings of Polarity Therapy founder Randolph Stone, DO, DC, ND (1890-1981) have been digitized, indexed and made searchable in this new free resource for Polarity students, practitioners and teachers.

Polarity in its Simplicity

like an unsolved riddle. That our very life depends on these blue chips in motion, does not alter the facts! We see only what we like and what appeals to us. We are fascinated by effects and accept them as causes. The supply of our very breath, caloric energy as warmth, liquids and solid foods, clothing and shelter are factors of health, happiness and existence. The function of these four primal energy currents which must flow through us every second in order that we may live, is overlooked. Our health and life depend on this simple energy play of Nature's finer forces, but we perceive it not!

The four energy principles in active motion appear as a multitude to us because they function in every field. And so we struggle and pray for the many things, and forget the simple active factors and constituents. Finally, in our rush and effort for the supply of many things and satisfactions, the body can no longer attract from the earth the elements it needs because of lowered vital attractive power or Polarity pull. Then the body goes back to earth from where its solid elements were drawn. That cycle is completed.

The same cycle is accomplished in the airy principle of the breath, which goes back to dust, while the combustible principles of organic substance are reduced to ashes by the fire element in Nature. The water element, as a symbol of the spirit or soul in the body, goes back to God Who gave it.

Structural Polarization

All the forces of Nature are operative in man, in minature [miniature], like a tempest in a teapot. The currents within man travel over definite fields and parts of the body, each with a specific function. The fields have polarity as a structural balance of the superior to the inferior and a middle or neuter [neutral] position. This is clearly set forth in a precise manner in chart No. 4, Book II of my course for doctors, and chart No. 3 in this book.

Structural polarization by means of current flow is an important factor. Fields become obstructed by gross matter, like the muscle tissue by carbon and acid deposits, as well as other waste products. The blood stream as a whole is subject to similar accumulation of waste matter through the inability to separate the grosser from the finer, due to a lack of complete digestion, combustion, and oxidation of particles which enter the blood stream.

These simple facts are recognized by every Nature Cure doctor. But how to make use of Nature's finer forces of energy currents and Polarity function is a new field of thought and application. Even though these subtle factors are the active agents behind every Nature Cure principle, they are not recognized as such when they are hidden behind one of their Polarity agents in Nature, such as water-cure in its manifold applications of grounding by walking in Nature's dew, or as mud in packs, etc. In diet, including the use of herbs, etc., all these factors are active agents through the energy currents latent in them and through the Polarity principles which relate them to man. Mind repels the grosser and attracts the finer essences and uses them as building blocks. Attraction rules this choice.

By recognizing and understanding the active principles involved, the principles in Nature Cure can be clarified and the applications simplified. A clearer understanding makes the study more interesting for the doctor and the patient.
