Degree of doctor of Medicine (Honorious Causa); Speech
of Serge Jurasunas Upon Being Presented with the Lifetime Achievement
Award by the International College of Iridology.
Ladies
and Gentlemen, Dear Colleagues, Dr. Pesek:
First
I am deeply honored to have been presented with the Lifetime
Achievement Award, surely a special day in my life. Most of you in
this audience do not know me but I am well known in US in other
areas of Alternative Medicine and Integrative Oncology from my
frequent articles published not only in US but other countries like
Germany, Japan, Lithuania, Belgium and more.
I
start practicing as a Naturopathic Doctor and Iridologist back in
1967 in Montreal Canada where I opened my first consulting office
after having been invited during a TV program to speak about
Iridology and to show some iris case photos. Probably not even the TV
journalist who invited me could have imagined the reaction of the
public and the hundreds of phone calls they received to ask for my
phone and contact information. At the time Iridology was unknown in
Montreal and no doctors were practicing this method. It was a
different period back then with no internet, little information where
we were obliged to practice empirical methods using the Healing Power
of Nature as our medicine. Iridology was one possible way of
diagnosis.
At
that time my knowledge was limited by what I had learned from the
nutritional method and Iridology teachings of Dr. Bernard Jensen,
which offered a basis of how to approach and treat disease. Of
course at the same time I was taking a course of Naturopathy at the
only government registered College existing in Quebec called, Le
College des Naturopathes du Quebec. Later on upon returning to
Europe I decided to take a course in Homeopathic Medicine in South
Africa and graduated as a Doctor of Homeopathic Medicine.
Why
and how I entered into this new world, this conception of nutritional
food was all new to me in my youth. While I was living in Los
Angeles this by itself was a most interesting experience in my life,
but it was not a coincidence as I am going to explain since it
totally changed my whole life.
HOW
I CAME TO HEAR ABOUT DR. BERNARD JENSEN...
A
couple of years after my arrival in Los Angeles I began to feel
strong nervous tension, depression and the problem of weaker vision.
After consulting a neurologist, he found nothing wrong with me and
suggested that I should consult a psychiatric doctor which I refused.
At that time one of my neighbors was a French Lady who lived over 20
years in India and developed colon cancer. She was treated only with
a Nature Cure with a famous Naturopath at his clinic. She totally
recovered and decided to stay and work in the clinic. At that time in
Los Angeles she was on strict diet, eating mostly raw food, drinking
plenty of vegetable juice, taking sitz baths and enemas. This was all
new to me, not making much sense at least in the beginning. One day I
asked her what should I do? OK she said, I know a good doctor, I am
working in his consulting office over the week end and can ask him to
see you. He is a doctor of Natural living, which seemed very strange
to me, but I thought, OK why not!
This
is the way I met Dr. Bernard Jensen who diagnosed his patients
through the iris of their eyes, a science called Iridology. This is
precisely what he had done with me and proceeded to explain what
wrong with me and what I should do to recover my health. He spoke
about nutrition, gave me a prescription of vitamins, supplements,
food diet and some recipes for vegetable juice cocktails. I also
bought at his office his book, “Vital Food for Total Health” to
start to become acquainted with nutrition and see how I could cook my
new food.
SECOND
CONSULTATION
I
felt enthusiastic about Dr Jensen . I also bought another book from
Dr. Jensen, “The Science and Practice of Iridology”, that I
started to read immediately. I also began to change my dietary style.
Having been fascinated by Dr. Jensen and interested in his work, he
subsequently invited me to come along with him to Hidden Valley
Health Ranch in Escondido, California not far from the Mont Palomar.
The purpose was for me to see for myself, directly observing how
patients can recover their health with Dr. Jensen's Natural Medicine
and Nutrition. In fact Hidden Valley Health Ranch was essentially a
very big clinic for patients equipped with bedrooms and land for
growing organic vegetables and fruits. Patients were treated only
with natural therapies, nutrition, fasting, colon therapies, juice
therapy, chiropractic,some medical devices, detox and additionally a
wide range of vitamins, minerals, tonics of Dr. Jensen's own
formulation.
THE
BEGINING OF REAL DISCOVERY, A NEW WORLD OPENED TO MY EYES AND MIND
I
stayed several times at Hidden Valley Health Ranch, observing and
learning from living patients treated in front of me where I could
follow day after day how they recovered only as a result of Natural
Healing. Absolutely fantastic! Then Dr. Jensen had me stay by his
side during his iris observation of patients. He explain what he saw,
what was the problem with a particular patient and what he may need
to improve and recover. I started to draw with color pencils a virgin
chart of the iris signs found by Dr. Jensen associating them with
symptoms or organic dysfunction. This process drove me directly to
understand the vital importance of Iridology if we want to truly
practice Naturopathy.
It
was during this time that I decided this will be my life's work and
planned what would be required for future study. I planned to take a
Naturopathic course which was in fact the advice I received from Dr.
Jensen. Thus I made the decision to move to Quebec, Canada where I
could study more easily under the French language. Later upon my
return to Europe I decided to take a course in Homeopathic Medicine,
having been most interested in its theory and practice so I went to
South Africa for a course at the government approved Homeopathic
College of South Africa and graduated as Doctor of Homeopathic
Medicine.
DR.
MAX GERSON'S BOOK, “A CANCER THERAPY - RESULT OF 50 CASES”
I
had been reading many health books from pioneers like Arnold Ehret,
Mac Fadden, Tilden and Paul Bragg. Then one day I found a book
called, “ A Cancer Therapy - Result of 50 Cases,” by Dr. Max
Gerson. Reading this book opened my mind about the nature of cancer
disease, especially how it could be treated. Both doctors Jensen and
Max Gerson were using large quantities of vegetable juices for their
patients. However Dr. Jensen was not treating cancer, but only some
exceptional cases.
Although
my practice was successful I was not satisfied because of the weak
knowledge in Iridology, mostly limited to Dr. Jensen's book. I felt I
should investigate more and learn more about this science. Also my
mind began to be think more and more about what is cancer and also
how to treat this disease, although at the time I found Dr. Max
Gerson's book to be quite impressive.
I
then decided to close up my practice in Quebec and return to Europe,
mainly to Germany to obtain more knowledge about Iridology with some
of the masters such Joseph Deck, then one of the great Iridologists
and also to know more about cancer. I met some German researchers,
and doctors such Paul Seeger, a student of Otto Warburg who was
working with cancer associating cancer with the theory of cellular
respiration and mitochondrial function which today increasingly
attracts more scientific inquiry to research the real cause of cancer
outside the myth of DNA cell mutation as the only known cause of
cancer. Also Dr. Siegfried Wolz, an Engineer who developed the Live
Yeast Cells preparation under the suggestion of Paul Seeger (see my
work on this topic online). This discovery opened a new direction
for me in the way to treat cancer obtaining much better results.
In
1970 I moved to Portugal where I met my wife Lucie and opened a
consulting office. Then in 1976 a larger clinic, followed in 1983 by
a new 3 story clinic with organic gardening and all the facilities.
From
that day on I started my involvement not only with Iridology research
and practice but also with other types of check ups that expanded my
interest, such Live Blood Analysis and the Oxidative Dried Blood
test that I developed. I offer some detailed information about this
test in my new book recently published in English. Cancer disease
became my main interest both in research and treatment where over the
years I have developed some innovative therapies, published several
important papers and booklets about cancer and started my involvement
with molecular medicine as a new way to approach cancer. Today my
work is recognized on 3 continents which is really rewarding to see
as a result of all the years I devoted to increase my knowledge and
experience in this field. You may also read my new book that includes
some of my theories and experiences with treating cancer.
HEALTH
AND DISEASE BEGIN IN THE COLON
I
also spent considerable time investigating breast cancer and its
associated iris signs ever since breast cancer became one of my main
interests in investigation and treatment. After several years of
observing the irises of breast cancer patients I developed a chart of
breast cancer iris signs and started to publish some articles and
documents about the subject. My new book includes a full illustrated
chapter on breast cancer.
However
lately I have pursued a new direction. I have been appointed
Professor of Naturopathic Oncology at the Pan Am University of
Sciences and Natural Medicine where we set up a course for our
students. While it would take too long now to explain what I have
accomplished, the books that I haven published, lectures delivered in
over 45 countries, over 150 papers, my innovative therapies, my new
research on iris signs associated with apoptosis and P53 mutation,
the various Awards and Prize that I received during my life such as
the Silver Medal of Research and Invention in 1979 for my
contribution in the field of Iridology. The Van de Arbeid decoration
for the elite in their profession created by the late King of Belgium
Albert I, the Gold Medal from the International Academy of Lutece of
Art, Sciences and Letters in Paris, the Grand Academic gold Collar
from the International Academia Di Pontzen Italia the highest
decoration of the Academy. But you can learn additional information
about me and my work on my website, on slideshare, my blog and of
course from my book which is also important for all the Iridologists
and Naturopaths to study since it offers a wealth of knowledge. My
new book is well illustrated and includes many facts on modern
Naturopathy as well as in other directions associated with more
scientific facts about cancer and apoptosis.
CONCLUSION
I
am grateful to David Pesek and the International College of Iridology
for this Award. It really crowns my 50 years of professional
practice, my life's work and especially all the time I have dedicated
to healing and the fight for the life of my patients. This is often
painful yet often comes with great success. Over the past decades
many patients owe me their life. We have a saying that saving the
life of one person is like saving the whole world. This makes me feel
happy. I am grateful that God has given me this opportunity
to
serve humanity and to better understand his natural laws of healing.
So
thank you very much and remember that knowledge is important,
learning is important if you want to be a good doctor.
Thank
you for your attention
