Vegans, Diet, Raw Foods and Health Posts

[Skyalmian]

You posted the quoted portion in "The Reality Matrix" thread, but to avoid derailment I am placing this here...

"Eaten food does not build human body cells. It has an impact on how they are built and how they function but it does not build them. The body does not directly build its cells from eaten food."

Cells are built using Amino Acids right?! I know life force can become Amino Acid but for those who eat they build there cells with their food right?

A bit hard to explain. Yes and no. There are so many factors... the health of the mental, emotional, etheric, physical bodies, the state of the Chakras (I say this because, contrary to current belief, the physical body is actually within the etheric body, which is within the astral, which is within another inner body, and so on and inward (physical body is most outer body -- Adrian's apple metaphor explains this)), how much the person "knows" / intuits, and so on...

"Food" acts as a modifier... Programming / belief affects how the food is used. Ultimately (at the root, I mean...) it doesn't matter what's eaten, as it's all one and the same -- foreign matter -- but the beliefs regarding that matter are different. Not knowing about Source, having emotional problems / other issues / etc. can make external sources are required -- plus belief reinforces this. It's worth noting that fear is the opposite of Unconditional Love and thus depletes the body / drains life force / energy / etc. (I speak for myself alone (my opinion) when I say that anything stuck into the body is just dirt, a material item like any other.)

Alenara (mentioned in Life Style Without Food) has a site that explains the technical details surrounding "food" / living on light (light / unconditional love which materializes all that is needed, including amino acids). I haven't delved into the technical details so I link that so she can explain...


I have some advice tidbits I've wanted to give out... You don't have to do these of course, but reading / thinking about them may help. The easiest (and safest) way to having a diet change (be it from vegetarian -> vegan to vegan -> breatharian) is making oneself conscious about what they're doing, or having a strong desire to change, for ethical reasons for instance. Joachim Werdin talks about the "Conscious Eating Method", which recommends questioning the process of eating something. I didn't do just that. Observe every effect "food" has on your body. As disgusting as this sounds, observe what comes out, for example. Nasty thought? Nastier: that was in you, for hours if not days. Necessary for it to be there? Nope. Everyone finds that gross but they never give it anymore thought than they have to, and they especially don't question the [so-called] necessity of it all...

Like with lucid dreaming / astral projecting / meditating / etc., having a journal helps a lot; a "food" journal. Identify why you're about to eat anything: addiction (emotions are involved)? Habit (just something you're used to doing)? Boredom ("something to do because there's nothing else to do...")? Taste, smell (yum-yum)? Being thrifty ("can't let it go to waste...")? A sugar / bread craving (parasites?)? Become aware of any / all feelings toward whatever is about to be consumed and then while being consumed, food-related pains, awareness levels before and especially after eating (awareness / perception of the five senses always plummets like a rock after any meal), clarity of thought before and after eating (dimmed thinking processes afterward), headaches, fevers, burning eyes, running nose, etc. In my experience, sugar produces lethargy and burning eyes, and, if I have not eaten much within the past 36 hours, makes my nose run -- I call that "my liver is crying", since the liver is directly connected to the nose -- a clean liver = a clean nose. One of the very first things you may notice when going from eating at your present levels to eating next to nothing is that your sense of smell will increase 5 fold or more. Too much "food" within my body for too long produces headaches I immediately identify the source of by their feeling, as well as mild "heat haze" fevers. In the summertime, when am out and about, and am overheating, it can feel like my insides are burning up / liquefying -- it is actually the waste that is doing that.

Think of whatever you can related to food and just talk about it in a journal, if you decide to start one.


I compiled this list of the so-called effects of the lack of "food" and water into a list, which I originally posted here. This is a list of things to watch out for when doing any diet change...:

I would have rather uploaded the PDF file of this document, but this shall have to do instead (it would be nice if we could upload documents ). These items were compiled from 2 wilderness survival books as well as LSWF.

Dear Kay, 


I read yesterday about your raw diet progress - I will post here about it.

I really want to congratulate you for being so determined. Can you please when you have time write a simple day planner - or what you really eat during the day. Although I am a vegan now and happy to be so, like Louis I still like my cooked rice, and other grains - however I might challenge myself to a raw diet as soon as warmer wheather comes up these planes.


all the love to you

Hi Laura,

Currently my daily diet goes like this:

Lunch
Salad:
1 cup of black olives
6 baby carrots diced
1 avocado diced
5 grape tomatoes sliced
1 zucchini sliced
1 cucumber diced
2 cloves garlic
Small hand-full of chopped green onions
About 1/4 cup of my homemade cheddar cheese (cheddar recipe below).
Sometimes I'll add a little dressing for variety containing a little olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and some Italian herbs mixed together.  The salad is enough for 2 meals, so I'll eat about half and save the rest for later.  I don't eat a salad everyday.  Maybe 2 or 3 times a week depending on how hungry I feel.  Since I usually have enough for 2 meals I'll either eat the rest for dinner, or save the rest for lunch the next day.

After that has settled I'll make my green smoothie containing the following:
1 tablespoon cacao powder
1 tablespoon acai powder
1 tablespoon maca powder
1 tablespoon super greens powder
20 ounces of water
If I don't eat a salad before the smoothie sometimes I'll have 2 or 3 bananas.  I drink the smoothie everyday for lunch.  Most days the smoothie is the only food I'll have for lunch.  I've tried blending in bananas with my smoothie since that is what I have seen most people do, but I don't like it.  I like the smoothie much better with just the super foods.

Dinner
I also drink the same green smoothie everyday for dinner, so basically I at least have 2 green smoothies with the above ingredients everyday.
I also sometimes eat 2 or 3 bananas for dinner before the smoothie.


Rich Cheddar Sauce
1 cup raw cashews
½ large red bell pepper
¼ cup water
2 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon tahini
1½ teaspoon sea salt
1 clove garlic
2 teaspoon onion powder (or a small slice of onion or 1 Tbsp of green onion)
Preparation:

Blend all ingredients until creamy. Add more water if it is too thick.  I normally make 2 separate batches of the above ingredients and combine them together to make it last the week.  I tried doubling the recipe to make it all in one batch, but it's too much for my blender and the bell peppers don't blend very well, and I'll have chunks of bell pepper in the cheese, so I'll make it in 2 separate batches.  I love the taste of this cheese.  I like it better than the rotell I use to cook.  My oldest daughter loves it too, but she eats it as dip with Tostito chips, hehe.

Once my weight has stabilized (maintained a steady weight for at least a month or 2) I am going to reduce the food I eat to only 2 green smoothies per day as that is all I want anyway.  I really like the smoothies and they are very fast to make.  It only takes about 5 minutes to make the smoothies.  The salads take me about 20 minutes to make from all the slicing and dicing, hehe.

This diet is still a work in progress, so I'm still going through a learning curve right now trying to figure out what works best for me.  So far I've been eating this way for over 2 months, but again, once I have stopped losing weight, and I think I have, I'll probably change it up a little bit, but it will only be raw vegan of course.

Dear Kay,


Thank you very much for taking the time to write all that down.

I already know I LOVE your salad! I have versions of what you just wrote at lunch. I also like to add creminini mushrooms in them. Not garlic and onions though as I'm at work and talking to people.

I tried to make a smoothie one day with greens but perhaps I didn't quite got it well.

So, what else do you eat??

Do you eat fruits?? I could not survive if I didn't have at lots of fruits no matter what my diet is. Is great that you got your family involved in this.


love

[Mina-Laura]

Dear Kay and Friends,


A quantum play game in Reality Matrix: a few minutes ago these people invited me to become a friend on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/StopClimateChangeNow


I love to focus more on lovely Earth creatures though

Dear Sky,

contrary to current belief, the physical body is actually within the etheric body, which is within the astral, which is within another inner body, and so on and inward

Interesting. So based on this model the Source isn't some singularity dot within you. Everything is in the Source just projected outward?

it doesn't matter what's eaten, as it's all one and the same -- foreign matter -- but the beliefs regarding that matter are different.

I would like to differ on this. Some food is good for you and others are bad for you. A Organic Orange has health benefits, melted cheese has health disadvantages. The best food is Life Force I believe!

Alenara (mentioned in Life Style Without Food) has a site that explains the technical details surrounding "food" / living on light (light / unconditional love which materializes all that is needed, including amino acids). I haven't delved into the technical details so I link that so she can explain...

I read that link before and it doesn't answer my question about how cells are built.

That is good advice. I know I eat because I am bored or just want some food in my mouth!

I hope we can talk again.

That's pretty much it.  I don't eat anything else.  The only fruits I eat are avocados, bananas, and apples.  I like bananas the best. 

EDIT:  I forgot about the acai powder I eat in the smoothies.  I guess that could be considered fruit.  Are berries fruit?    Hehe, I never really thought about that.  Kind of like I always get confused about whether a tomato is a fruit or vegetable, lol. 

I really love the green smoothies.  They don't taste good and they don't taste bad, but I love the life giving energy they provide, and they are very refreshing.

I like to keep my diet simple and easy.  I also use my diet as one of many exercises I use for subjugating my ego.  Given that the ego is discussed quite a bit, I will be making a post in a new thread about my progress and the methods I use on mastering the ego for the purpose of possibly benefiting someone else who might also be working on mastering their ego.

Interesting!

I think this raw business is tied up a lot with being in connection with life itself. These days if so happens that if 1 day passes and I don't have to much time for greens, raws, fruits etc.. and I just grab whatever, I feel all 'dead' inside... I can't even explain.

These are the fruits I love: apples, mango, kiwi, berries, avocados, bananas, peaches, apricots, strawberries, lychee (mmmm), grapes, pears, oranges, grapefruit, pomello, melons both red and yellow, pineapples, mulberries... well you get the idea.

Bananas don't get me very excited lately, when I was a child I used to crave them. Now I eat them more like fillers is very rare that I think "oh wow I feel like eating one right now". Of apples, pears, berries, mangos, pineapples, peaches, apricots, I could never tire.

Well to tell you the truth out of all people I know your Ego seems to be the most friendsly one - unless you are very careful and keep it in deep hiding; but I would be very interested to see what aspects you have overcomed and how.

Oh I love tomatoes, and although there are many varieties I prefer to buy the ones that are very flavourful even if they are most expensive - I would rather enjoy just a bit for taste than have those mass produced ones with no taste and no flavour.

I like cabbage ..lol.. and only raw. It seems this is the only way it agrees with my system. I know a lot of vegans rely on beans, but they make me sick - I can eat the green ones in shells however, the moment they are cooked are like poison to me.

I never had acai  .. I got this hemp powder but I seem to have a hard time blending it with other fruits.

Oh wow, I better stop here ..lol....

Dear Kai & Laura,

Kai a Tomato is technically a berry. Corn is a grain.

Fruit, Berry, Nut, Grain, Flower, Seed there all the same thing. The Reproductive part of a plant. A Fruitarian will only eat the reproductive parts. A Vegetarian would eat the hole plant, Root, Stem, Herb, Leaves...

Laura I LOVE tomatoes too, its one of my favorite foods of all time! I buy the vine ripe tomatoes. They are more expensive but they are the redist!

Peace & Love

Louis

I will be eating Raw....

Fruit
Nuts
Seeds
Flowers
Grains
Herbs
Vegetables
Roots
Stems
Leaves

And that's it I think

Love you guyz!

Louis

I read that link before and it doesn't answer my question about how cells are built.

As matter is "frozen light" ("The physicist David Bohm, (1917-1992) described matter as 'frozen or condensed light'"), my guess is that pure energy flows from within and then "crystallizes" / "freezes" to form the physical materials for the body: whatever is needed, including amino acids. In doing so absolutely everything that's needed is synthesized in approximately the proper amount at exactly the proper time. That's my take on it. Here's another:

When I am asked what I nourish the body with during inedia, my truest answer is that I nourish it with ... nothing. I know, because I clearly see and feel this that during inedia I maintain the body in perfect condition only by being conscious that IAM is the creator of Life. Do you understand? — the creator of Life. By simply being aware that I create Life, I can maintain the mind and the body (which I am using as tools) in any state I wish. I feel this. At the same time as I turn my focus inward myself (my spiritual center), I feel IAM which creates (gives) Life and maintains its creation.

...

This or that way, why would you want to limit yourself? Why would you want to be dependent on prana, Light or God? Of course, you can nourish yourself with these things if you decide so. You can also leave these things once you feel IAM, that is what you really are in your essence. Then not only food and water but also God, Light and prana will not be needed by you for living. You will not be limited by "living on Light", "nourishing the body with prana", "God's love or grace" because you will have the choice. You will have the choice not only: eat or not, breath or not; you will be also able to choose between: to nourish yourself with prana, Light or not, to live on God's love or not.

Hello to all,
The words in the modified quote above, are a bit troublesome, from my point of view. Regardless, all activities and most beliefs are a matter of choice. Choose wisely.

Dear Sky,

I agree with you & thank you for answering my questions.

As matter is "frozen light" ("The physicist David Bohm, (1917-1992) described matter as 'frozen or condensed light'"), my guess is that pure energy flows from within and then "crystallizes" / "freezes" to form the physical materials for the body: whatever is needed, including amino acids.

At the same time as I turn my focus inward myself (my spiritual center), I feel IAM which creates (gives) Life and maintains its creation.

This makes sense to me & I believe I can and to some extent am manifesting matter from Higher Frequency's. I call this "Heaven Element Food".

I still have a question.. What about the people who still eat food? Aren't there cells built from the food they eat?

This or that way, why would you want to limit yourself? Why would you want to be dependent on prana, Light or God?
 Then not only food and water but also God, Light and prana will not be needed by you for living. You will not be limited by "living on Light", "nourishing the body with prana", "God's love or grace" because you will have the choice. You will have the choice not only: eat or not, breath or not; you will be also able to choose between: to nourish yourself with prana, Light or not, to live on God's love or not.

Talker I am glad you brought this up. When I was reading this I had a problem with is as well. Yes we are Source, God, Tao... however everything is already created. We can create a body using Life Force but we can not create Life Force. In other words we need to use "Heaven Element" if we chose to eat "Earth Element" no longer. This person you quoted is living off Gods love even if 'he/she' doesn't think so.

Anyway today I started my only eating raw food diet! After 100 days I'll decide if I want to eat cooked food again or not.

P.S. A kitty was packaged up for a month without food or water & shipped to France. The kitty lived through that.

In Peace and Light

Thank you for bringing it up as well... I thought he was referring to something "external" like with the other 2 examples he listed. He is living on Unconditional Love ("God's love"). His awareness that he creates life ("I feel this.") is his feeling the Unconditional Love, the same "glue" that keeps the universe itself in existence. On that note, I am exactly the same way; that is, I am a breatharian of that type as well.
