Nobody can help you more than yourself; collect your strength, and learn to see again. I
am not a magician, but I can be your guide and your counselor.
Bates As surely as any soldier ever died on the field, Dr. Bates gave his life for a cause, battling against fate, during many years of magnificent struggle, when the unending disappointment finally broke in hopeless despair. His torch is still burning. There will come some other battler, who is fit, and will hold it high until the people who are sitting in darkness have seen its great light

Bravissimo! Rishi
I just today received by mail my own copy of your beautifully designed
edition of Better Eyesight Magazine: The Cyclopedia of Perfect Sight: Better Eyesight (Part
One of Two; Volumes I to IX, July 1919 to June 1925). Thank you for your wonderful gift. I will
treasure it.
I will send you my comments after I have read it. For now, I send you my
congratulations for your dedication and herculean labor of love in making available the "editio
verissima" of maestro WHB's uncensored words.
I can "imagine" the many hours and huge expenditure of energy and
attention your edition of WHB has cost you.
Excellent!
Yours is an enormous contribution of essential resources for disseminating a
truer knowledge of WHB's method. You have singlehandedly published true and accurate editions of the
core of WHB's and Emily's writings, a marvelous service to scholars and all others who would desire to
gain Perfect Sight.
Are you planning to publish an edtion of the collected
"fugitive" journal writings of WHB? That would complete the "canon" of the
maestro's writings.
Once again, my warm grazie! for
your monumental achievement.
The Roman poet Horace's words concerning his own writings now apply to your
editorial contributions:
Exegi monumentum aere perennius:
I have erected a monument more lasting than bronze»
All my best wishes, Rishi,
[ John, CA ]

Rishi,
I got the book today [The Cyclopædia of Perfect Sight, Part One of Two]. Thanks. The
quality of the print is excellent.
[ Mau, CA ]
Dear Giovanni, I have received [ the Cyclopædia ], thank you. It is a very nice work, a masterpiece, also for style used and the typographic rendering. Now I'm ordering the second part!

I did purchase the two books from you and read them both from cover to cover. I immediately took the glasses off my 9 year old granddaughter. She had worn them since she was 3 years old for a crossed eye. It took a lot of faith on my part, because her eye stayed cross more than not for at least 2-3 weeks. She and I gently put into practice barely a few of the things that Bates suggested. [ … ] And now, only occasionally does her eye cross and with a slight reminder from me, she relaxes and it straightens to center. [ … ] Your letter to me is a motivator for me to reread the books to see what I can glean from a second reading. I am definitely interested in the book that you mentioned that you have just printed (the Cyclopedia, part 1). How much is it and how do I pay for it? I enjoy the group emails and always gain from your expertise. Thanks,
[ Sharon, GA ]
I had read something about the Bates method before I was fitted with my first pair of glasses on some website that didn't have it right, describing it as exercising and throwing their own techniques into the mix--the kind of filth I've seen on mailing lists such as "batesmethod" on Yahoo. I wish I had inspected it further, but alas I was turned off by it. […] With the excellent experience I've had so far with the knowledge I've acquired from Bates and his wife [reading their own original books] and the regimen I've fallen into, I find it extremely painful to see the Bates-misinformation that litters the web. Aside from this one [the PerfectSight Yahoo! Group], the Bates-related mailing lists out there are home to some of the most pathetic, laziest people in the world. But I won't let that stop me from getting the glasses off of all my friends who currently wear them.

I read through the archives [of your PerfectSight Yahoo! Group] this past weekend. I learned more about the application of Bates than I ever did in years of listening to the blind leading the blind on other sites. It cleared up for me many questions I had. I came to one conclusion: of the groups I've come across, this is the only true Bates group. I am glad to have found it. The others have diluted the Bates discoveries into a confusion of philosophy, herbs, pop psychology and worse.

Hello Rishi, just to let you know that i've received the order and it is absolutely brilliant - the
italian versions are extremely valuable to me and i appreciate your dedication in translating these
books. Thank you.
I am also very impressed with your magazine, il falco, and would like to subscribe and also have copies of
all back issues (if they are still available). Please let me know how much the subscription will
cost?
I would also like to order Dr. Bates' BETTER EYESIGHT MAGAZINE but may have to wait a month or two before
placing the order.
