Two Kinds Of Samadhi
Adano Ley (Swami Nitty-Gritty) said …
“The breathless state is the enlightened state.
“Breathlessness is joyousness — breathless with joy.
“Machines are now being made to produce this state.
“The decompression chamber brings the pressure down to sea level, which is enlightenment.â€
Adano and George Wellington Adams owned two of these machines, but they were never put to practical use.
The traditional Hatha Yoga method of achieving enlightenment is way more labor-intensive.

N.C. Paul (A Treatise on the Yoga Philosophy, 1851) wrote …
“Samadhi is the last stage of self-trance. In this state the yogis, like the bat, the hedgehog, the marmot, the hamster, and the dormouse, acquire the power of supporting the abstraction of atmospheric air, and the privation of food and drink. Of samadhi or human hybernation there have been three cases within the last 25 years. The first case occurred in Calcutta, the second in Jesselmere and the third in the Punjab. I was an eye-witness of the first case.
“Of samadhi there are two varieties, termed Samprajna and Asamprajna. Colonel Townsend, who could stop the motion of his heart and arteries at pleasure, and could die or expire when he pleased, and again revive, was a case of Samprajna samadhi.
“The Jesselmere, the Punjabi, and the Calcutta yogis, who assumed a death-like condition by swallowing the tongue, and who could not revive of themselves at pleasure, were cases of Asamprajna samadhi, as they were all resuscitated by others who drew the buried tongue out of the fauces and restored it to its normal place.â€

Omega 3 fatty acids lower stress by eroding immunity.
Omega 3s can have “positive” results for a while via accelerated aging.
It’s related to the reason “elderly” people are “immune” to hantavirus, but there’s a price to pay.
For folks who think aging is a “natural” process (I don’t), omega 3s are Nature’s way of making room for succeeding generations via cumulative lipofuscinosis (progressive pansteatitis).

Charles Murchison, M.D. wrote (in 1868) …
“Cod-liver oil is of questionable utility; Frerichs states that he has known cases where waxy liver was developed under its continuous use.â€
According to the same source …
“The liver undergoes greater enlargement from the so-called waxy, or amyloid deposit, than from any other disease, excepting, perhaps, cancer. I have known the liver of an adult affected with this disease weigh upwards of 180, instead of 50 or 60 ounces, and the liver, of which I show you here a portion, weighed one-seventh, instead of a twenty-fifth, of the entire body of the child from whom it was taken.â€

Ray Peat (“The Great Fish Oil Experiment,†2006-2016) wrote …
“In declaring EPA and DHA to be safe, the FDA neglected to evaluate their antithyroid, immunosuppressive, lipid peroxidative (Song et al., 2000), light sensitizing, and antimitochondrial effects, their depression of glucose oxidation (Delarue et al.,2003), and their contribution to metastatic cancer (Klieveri, et al., 2000), lipofuscinosis [Yellow Fat Disease] and liver damage, among other problems.â€

Re: I think Short-term use of cod liver oil is therapeutic.
Anything can cure anything. Abraham Lincoln’s syphilis would have killed him in his twenties if it hadn’t been for mercury, and the side effects didn’t catch up to him till 1859.
