There is nothing wrong with lying almost nude on the beach in summer in order to benefit from the air and sun. But the benefits would be greater if people understood the nature of the influences they were exposing themselves to and had methods of working with them. What they receive when they are exposed in this way depends on the thoughts and feelings they are nourishing. In itself, the skin is neutral; it can capture anything, the good as well as the bad. It is one’s consciousness, one’s thoughts that direct and determine the skin’s work. When your thoughts are pure, luminous and linked with God, it is as if your skin received orders from above to drive out poisons and attract only life-giving particles and energies. When realized under good conditions, this communion with the forces of nature can restore you.
