"e;Breath is Life."e;Differ as they may upon details of theory and terminology, the Oriental and the Occidental agree upon these fundamental principles.To breathe is to live, and without breath there is no life. Not only are the higher animals dependent upon breath for life and health, but even the lower forms of animal life must breathe to live, and plant life is likewise dependent upon the air for continued existence.The infant draws in a long, deep breath, retains it for a moment to extract from it its life-giving properties, and then exhales it in a long wail, and lo! its life upon earth has begun. The old man gives a faint gasp, ceases to breathe, and life is over. From the first faint breath of the infant to the last gasp of the dying man, it is one long story of continued breathing. Life is but a series of breaths."e; Easy to read layout.CONTENTS: CHAPTER I. SALAAM. CHAPTER II. "e;BREATH IS LIFE."e; CHAPTER III. THE EXOTERIC THEORY OF BREATH. CHAPTER IV.
