IHTI, an
International
Holistic
Touch
Initiative
of Fourthway ManHo Center for future healing and holistic
wellbeing for mankind
and a unique International
Holistic Multiversity bearing the sacred shield of the World School of Esoteric Holistic Health Practice was
conceptualized and created as an enneagramic, naturo, "medical", harmony and holistic driven
international initiative to
provide cyber, online and non-traditional training or education
without walls. Through its educational mission,
it also creates professional recognition and realize professional placement for
existing "practitioners" and potential wholesome
health interest individuals, into the
holistic Health Industries irrespective of nationals, race, creek,
religion, age or sex for the benefit of a wellbeing at large. IHTI employs a truly unique and revolutionary method of
education based on alternative education principles for which various isolated
components must be completed to qualify for invitation to be IHTI Certified
Professional Holistic Health Practitioners. The certification is exclusively
independent and internal to its own governing board based on its own mission,
vision, philosophy and its in-depth experience and esotericity. IHTI also provides professional services and holistic health
& enhancement
products for the needy community. The intellectual property of IHTI is
created, copyrighted and owned by Professor Dr. Tan Man Ho and is materialized
through a group of sociocosmic entities, one of which is Holistic Touch Sdn. Bhd. Co. Reg. No.
691509-D (registered in
May 13, 2005), which is
one of the vehicle companies or corporate affiliates appointed to realize the
universal philosophy, vision, mission, concepts, understanding and principles of IHTI as an Integral Holistic Concept in the socio-project of assisting inner body works for the
maintenance of balance, harmony, health, well being and peace everywhere in the
world.
The IHTI
service positioning falls on the border of complementary therapies, moving into
the enhancement & possibility development for ordinary and normal people and
ends near the starting point in the 'WORK' towards a fully developed being. Its
clients focus ranges from semi-patient to "normal/ordinary" man and
to transition man in distress.
IHTI
is a unique school of holistic health practice that embraces wholesome
principles of working from the physical body through the physiological
or functional bodies, from layer to layer, to the minds of instinct,
moving, sex, emotion and thought and finally to the dimension of the
finest ‘human spirit’ or soul, integrating the fragments in the course
of the inner work.
IHTI as an Integral
Holistic Concept is a house of individual missionaries and corporate affiliations as a principle,
structure and rules
for its applied expansion world-wide.
It must be fully understood that in the world
of true healing, naturalism and holism, corporate entities are the lowest
form of "classrooms" or "premises" because of its semi-artificial sociocosmic environment and over-emphasis of external values
or with externalized inclination tendencies. Good nature-based environment, unpolluted
clean water, truly fresh-air environment and impressions of nature is a
higher form of "classrooms" or "premises". IHTI
education therefore values such places for holistic health education!
It is no surprise that our participants will use nature to realize true
education.

OUR
PHILOSOPHY, VISION AND MISSION
 |
|
 |
The
Holistic Touch of Life (by Professor Dr. Tan Man
Ho, June 1, 2005) |
  |
Touch is
one of
the oldest and truest forms of communion. Human Touch is the very first
means in which we communicate with other beings as soon as we were brought
into the world from within the wombs of our mother. Soon as years
passed by the human touch is gradually forgotten. In its place
poured endless non-human and technological touches or at most human
touches become verbal talking at a distance. Touch is tactile
feeding through the skin. Being touched implies receiving or
"feeding" through the skin. To touch others means to give or to
"feed" through the skin. However, at a certain point in this
departure a return to this primordial touch is mandated by the
all-powerful and demand forces of the sex energy, that calls for the
preservation and propagation of the human race. But the loss and
subsequent damage during this departure can be disastrous, and the human
carriage together with all its instinctive, moving, sex, emotional and
thinking parts are often left in a decrepit state of distress, hunger and
even in pain.
The
holistic touch mission aims to bring back touch, at a quicker rate and
timely for the negative consequences of this brakeless departure of our
locomotives. Touch helps us redefine and remember our own body
boundaries and body image both in the physical and the spiritual
realms. It aids in self-remembering and understanding of ourselves
better as a four-dimensional being.
As a result
it can assist us in elevating our dire state of distress, heal our
diseases, promote personal growth and develop our potentials. By
sensing, feeling and observing through touch exchanges, we can understand
the receivers’ and the givers’ machines better, and realizes the goals
that have been set for touch for life — the goal of healing touch.
Touch as
science has the body of knowledge and understanding that can challenge
those old worn-out beliefs and misconceptions, that we may have
incorporated in our mechanical lives that do not support a healthy
lifestyle.
The touch
communication is one of the four dimensional physical cum intangible way
of exchanging energies whether information, knowledge, sensations and
perceptions and inclusive of mutual intentions whether they be expressing,
affection, nurturment or disapproval.
There is a common physical
touch which is normal but the intangible touch has a very great impact on
the harmonious development of human being.
A SCHOOL OF HOLISTIC HEALTH PRACTICE
 | |
The mission
of IHTI as a School of Holistic Health Practice with esoteric origin that has recently emerged from
its womb after 30 years of latent esoteric holistic incubation, is to
globally assist in the development of balance, harmonious, healthy and
wholesome individuals freed from the mechanical conditions of the body,
mind and consciousness. Practitioners are wholesome and natural therapists
who help the body, emotions, the intellect and awareness 'I's to heal
itself by reestablishing balance where there is imbalance. They
approach healing with "let-the-body-heal-itself" principles. Holistic
health practices and
'forms of realizations' are consciously modified and
programmed to allow
for coarse-end interests of ordinary life, and the higher goals are
periodically reinforced. Treatment is not the essence of holism
although treatment has to be given to the patient first for him to leave
his "official status" as a patient to participate in true holism. Our clients are
mainly normal/ordinary people who need or desire good health and personal
improvements NOT official patients.
OUR OBJECTIVES
 | |
To realize the IHTI
objectives, the mission seeks corporate affiliations in the
administrative, production and professional centers (or organizations).
The
3 main
objectives are:
1. To conduct
and offer alternative holistic education programs on those related to all types
of therapies and massage treatments for good health, being enhancement
and possibilities development
2. To provide
professional holistic and nature care services, training and apprenticeship in
all kinds of nature health treatments, enhancement and possibilities
development
3. To carry on
business of importer, agents and wholesale or retail dealers in all kinds
of holistic health care products
Objective 1 is realized fully
consciously through the first stage of the IHTI project which is
cyber-based, online, semi-non traditional "guru-based" alternative
education and meant strictly to "float-in-the-Absolute Idea" in the cyber
world and fourth dimension to reduce the potential dilution of vibration
caused by the negative consequences of the unbecoming "abnormalities" of
contemporary traditional educational sociocosmic stopinders. Others are
gradually realized through our individual missionaries and corporate
affiliates.
PROGRAMS & TRAININGS THROUGH ALTERNATIVE
EDUCATION
 | |
Seminars,
workshops, independent research assignments, professional image building
and practicum-apprenticeship (PAC) are components of activities designed
to transform participants into higher beings with the
understanding, knowledge, skills and usage of Natural
Psychophysical Therapeutic Methods. They qualify you to become an
IHTI Certified Professional Holistic Health Practitioner in its own
right. You can
practice it in your own right but subjected
to the recognition requirements, laws, rules & regulations
of each nation regarding this matter. These
alternative training/education programs are developed integratively from
an understanding of the different B-influenced sources of holistic
healing, medical, complementary, natural therapeutic, enhancement & possibilities development methods,
and developed into practice through a C influence. Our certification is
different from others in that it is rested on the philosophy and
principles of esotericism which is unknown to the lower level
commercial, professional and licensing objectives of the business and
regulatory sociocosmic stopinders. As the saying goes, with this
precaution for your mentation and feeling, that a Jesus healing touch
can hardly pass a test by the modern touch tester of our time.
Finally, we
assure you that you will
receive a comprehensive, truly holistic esoteric practitioner training here
with us!
