The Ancient Secret to the Fountain of Youth

Want to stay as young as you are right now, lose the gray hair, and look great in perpetuity for as long as you live?  Then you need The Ancient Secret to the Fountain of Youth by Peter Kelder. Quick! Get thee to a bookstore. 

This book, originally written in the 1930s, is slim but astonishing.  You’ll learn the story of the mysterious Captain Bradford, an aging, youth-obsessed British officer posted to Colonial India who traveled into Tibet to pursue the secret to eternal youth.

When the Captain returned, at age 73, to share his story with his friend Peter Kelder, the Captain looked so amazing that everyone he encountered took him to be not a day past 40. He had shed as much as thirty years, visibly. His hair even turned dark again. So how did the Captain do it? 

Read the book.

It coaches you in doing the Five Tibetan Rites, or ancient rejuvenating secrets passed down from strangely youthful monks high up in what surely might be the real Shangri-La.  The Tibetan Rites are basically five simple yoga moves that you practice every day, which result in weight loss, increased vitality, and the appearance of reversing the aging process.  The positions include “downdog,” “updog,” “table” and a clockwise spinning rotation. They take only 10 minutes – less time than it takes to slather on the cosmetic mask that is intended to conceal your advancing age and yawning crevasse of wrinkles. Peter Kelder was so impressed he dedicated the rest of his life to promoting the Rites so that all people could profit. Meanwhile Captain Bradford disappeared as mysteriously as he came and may well live on in Tibet today.
