		H1N1 Flu Prevention In 
		protecting yourself from H1N1, it has been 
		recommended that you wash your nostrils with salt water.  
		Maitreya introduced the
		Half-Bath 
		to the Mission, which includes the washing of the 
		nostrils, more than thirty years ago.  If you take a Half Bath (HB) regularly, your immune system will be very strong.  
		Indeed the possibility that you are infected by viruses which make many people 
		sick will become minimal.  Maitreya also revealed 
		the
		
		Quarter Bath (QB), which is meant to be a more flexible way to cool 
		the body in different situations.  If you like, you can add the 
		washing of the nostrils to the process.  It is also recommended to 
		wash your hands often.   Other factors besides for what is recommended 
		above are also at 
		work, such as your diet, exercise, meditation, inner-cize (yoga), 
		environment, and all the elements of the
		
		Prerequisites of Spiritual Life.   In addition to these, there are many other things 
		you can do that further prevent the spread of viruses and diseases.  
		They include: 1. Washing of the colon
 2. Thoroughly washing and cleaning your anal area with 
		water after going to the bathroom (toilet paper does not do the job - 
		hemorrhoid problems and colon cancer are often the result of not washing 
		with water)
 3. Pouring water on the genital area after each 
		urination (it cools the second chakra, help to prevent yeast infection 
		and prostate problems - including cancer).
 4. Taking your shoes off when you enter your house or 
		dwelling area (this is even more important than washing your hands; the 
		bottoms of our shoes are much dirtier than our hands)
 5. Taking a full bath often
 6. Cleaning indoor and outdoor pets thoroughly
 7. Etc.
 Maitreya will soon write an 
		article on added exercises and practices, in addition to the prerequisites 
		of 
		spiritual life.  Indeed He will introduce a new dance for women 
		called Tandavi (in the tune of Tandava for men).  We need someone 
		who is a good dancer to create a video of the movements so we can have 
		it in the website before the article can be written. If you are a good female dancer, let us know at
		tandavi@maitreya.org.  If 
		you are familiar with traditional Indian dance, that would be even 
		better!
