Puffball Mushrooms Back

From a Native American Truth keeper, Rachel Ashley, Crow Creek South Dakota
"We use the puffball mushroom for all sorts of infection, from diaper rash to deep puncture wounds, like dogbite or knife wounds, and a wet poultice of it for gangrene and abscessed teeth."

From the personal research and applications of Slim Spurling of the puffball powder from 1968 to the present
Background: I have a Bachelors degree in Biological Science from Colorado State University, attending that institution from 1958 to 1966 with a consuming interest in bio chemistry and mycology. While there I studied with some renowned professors in the Botany and Chemistry departments. While only a Sophomore I was invited to take graduate seminars in the then budding DNA chemistry, the first ever offered at the Department. Nearing graduation I was offered a Masters Degree Scholarship with all expenses paid. This was through the old department of Health Education and Welfare. The purpose of the grant was to find a fungus organism which, like Penicillium species, could produce commercializable quantities of a product which would "lower the threshold of suggestibility in the human" , in other words, a mind altering drug. The other criteria of the program were that this compound would have only the side effect of producing a mild euphoria and could be included as an unlabelled ingredient in any food product or over the counter medical remedy.

With the assistance of Dr. Lawrence Durrell, Professor Emeritus and founder of the Botany Department, with whom I took two semesters of study of soil fungi in a one student seminar course, I was able to locate a species of fungus in the literature which seemed to fit the criteria, obtain a sample culture from Dr. Durrells extensive library of cultures, grow a fresh culture, ingest the raw sample and test it on myself. The effects wore off in about three days. With some insight as to what the implications of this specific knowledge could potentially do in the wrong hands and an inborn distrust of acronym agencies (HEW), I declined the opportunity to add M Sc. as a badge of honor behind my name and to quit the academic and scientific community forever. I even declined to accept a diploma at graduation exercises. However, the diploma did arrive by mail, some six months later.

In 1979, while cleaning out my desk in preparation for a move, I came across both high school and college diplomas. During a forty day, forty night, campout, on the mountain behind my home, soon there after, I crumpled up the Diplomas and used them to start a small ceremonial fire. Offering the smoke to the gods, in native fashion, I said aloud "Here, I don't need these or what they represent to me, I am ready to learn whatever you deem proper for a man to know". Y'know, if I had had the slightest idea where that little statement would take me, I would have made it when I graduated from a nipple bottle to a cup. The past 22 years have been one of the wildest rides of discovery in an education no university on earth would even think of offering. Beyond the herbal remedy applications of puffball for infections, which is a whole book in itself, of immediate concern is the anthrax and many other bio-warfare style of infectious organisms which this Native American herbal remedy may successfully combat when coupled with an Ancient/Modern technology called the Harmonizer.

Shortly after the invention of the Harmonizer, Bill Reid and I were called in on a case involving a well-known author whose Denver home had been seeded with anthrax. We asked a local expert in an instrumental" subtle-energy" research group to check out the address/location of the author's home for the presence of anthrax. The practitioner reported a reading of 70-positive for anthrax-on the instrument's scale of measurement, the highest reading of anything ever investigated. Three hours after we had left a Harmonizer with a small puffball inserted into it on the coffee table of the authors home, the instrumental reading was Zero!!! That was a real wake-up call in our research.

The purpose of the foregoing is to alert newcomers to the website, frequent visitors, research colleagues, and all Geobiology Research Association associates to go out in your own neighborhoods, woods, or fields and gather as many nice dry, ripe puffballs as you find or enlist the local kids in a search for puffballs. Take care to pick them into a sandwich bag or a small plastic storage bag to preserve the powder. Insert smaller ones whole into a Harmonizer for your own home and maybe donate one quietly to the local post office. If activating the Harmonizer with the Environmental Clearing Tape or CD a larger area may be cleared which will also carry the puffball essence, or frequency, much like a homeopathic remedy.

This is a call to engage in a very large scale research project in which the Association is very well able to make a valuable contribution to the community at large by keeping active and (please!!!!!!!!!) send in field reports for posting on the website. Names and addresses, email address, phone number will be published or withheld by your request included in the report.

All of the foregoing information is entirely based on my personal observation and experience. The methods employed were crude and due to the expediency of the moment. Folklore, oral tradition, guesswork, my personal, formal education, self study in areas of Natural Science, historically documented experiments by scientists both known and unknown and my own unique mental processes , observations and intuition were the only basis for any of the events, experiments or recommendations. The single events described have not been scientifically validated, approved by anyone, any recognized governmental, scientific, philosophical, legal or known to me organization has confirmed in any way any of the above information. Nor do I imply that any of these or subsequent information published here or elsewhere attributed to me are valid or can or may be successfully duplicated in any or all cases in which the information may be used, attempted, tried, or employed. Results may be contrary to the described events. The information is offered solely for educational, investigational research and individual inquiry at the user's discretion and sole responsibility for any outcome. No guaranties are expressed or implied, nor have they been in the past or will they be in the future. Field reports may or may not have any validity in any other way than that they are observations made by an individual as the result of their own intuitive processes in the application of a non scientifically approved technology in a method described by the author of the report. The language usage is not necessarily scientific or precise and only reflects the author's understanding of an event expressed in the context of their own educational social and cultural background of experience in the real world they are observing. If any of the foregoing events can be duplicated successfully and reported for publication this will be food for thought and reason enough to continue investigating any promising direction to bring to the attention of a formal scientific organization. In the past few years, our proposals have been rejected by various authorities as unworthy of serious scientific investigation or even consideration from their lofty viewpoint; nevertheless we conducted our experiments successfully, but unnoticed, so be it, we persist in our "folly" and one day may become wise.
