In order to receive the maximum benefits from The Integral Protoanalysis of The Scarab Trainings^™, it is important that there be no drinking, drugs or smoking during the 10-day period that the trainings are being given. Drinking, drug-taking and smoking cause changes in the body and mind that prevent the purified Higher States of Mind from being attained. It is best to stop well in advance before coming to the training. Thank you for your cooperation.
