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 CORPORATE AFFILIATES

The international initiative invites corporate affiliations in the administrative, production and professional centers (or organizations).  Currently, the non-exclusive main affiliate administrative organization in Malaysia is Holistic Touch Sdn. Bhd.

They can participate in administration, professional services and as facility providers.

 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!
