In regards to eating meat

[BrownEye]

You are right in that humans can choose to "opt out" of meat-eating, however there is no denying that the human body was designed for consumption of animal protein. Perhaps we can modulate this with spirulina and other things as Dr. Gabriel describes, but this is actually not the "natural" state of things. This is a new possibility that was not available before.

Many of the spiritual possibilities are not "natural" according to consensus reality.

What is a Kundalini Yoga Diet?

Kundalini Yoga diet is a strict vegetarian diet with an emphasis on natural grown organic foods. Partaking of such a diet helps in the development of vital energy and spiritual consciousness. The use of raw foods such as cucumbers, radishes, tomatoes, sprouts and parsley is encouraged. You may even use spices such as ginger, cayenne, cinnamon and basil to liven up the taste. Whole grain foods also play a big role in a Kundalini Yoga diet as they help to promote strength and digestion. Kundalini Yoga exercises are designed to flush toxins out from the body. Hence it is also important to drink plenty of water when practicing Kundalini Yoga.

What foods should I include in my Kundalini Yoga Diet?

The foods that should be included in a Kundalini Yoga Diet include fresh fruit, whole grains such as rice and wheat, all vegetables with the exception of onion and garlic, beans and nuts, clarified butter as a cooking medium, natural sugars such as jaggery or honey, dairy products, sweet spices, herbal teas, plenty of water and fresh lime juices.

Foods that should be avoided include meat, fish and eggs, processed and junk foods, extremely spicy food containing garlic or onions, fried food, canned food, processed foods including refined sugar or flour, artificial sweeteners, alcohol, tobacco and other stimulants.

Although adopting a largely raw diet will tend to bring on a kundalini awakening, converting to such a diet while in the process of an awakening might cause digestive disruption if a lot of bulky fibrous material is eaten when the digestive system is not used to such cellulose intake. By use of raw juices, raw soups, wheat grass and careful use of high antioxidant fruits, we can avoid the problems that chowing through pounds of vegetables and unsoaked nuts and seeds will inevitably create. The fact that the digestive system is already compromised by the kundalini itself means that we have to be twice as mindful and intelligent about our diet.

Adopting a raw diet often brings on a kundalini awakening through derepression of vital energy. Whereas the cooked diet usually usurps most our energy in the digestion and detoxification processes, and so we have little energy and materials for repair, optimization and for building the spiritual-body. When we go raw this suppression is lifted and nature suddenly brings us up to the speed of our more Universal Self. Since we often use food as an escape mechanism to reduce the vividness of reality, returning suddenly to our full physical and spiritual senses can be extremely disorientating. It can take many years to integrate greater aliveness and to embody our full Presence and full senses. Because a kundalini awakening is already destabilizing I would not advise people to suddenly adopt a 100% raw diet during a full-on awakening...the adjustment would be too great for most people and negative coping mechanisms or digestive imbalances might result.


Raw food will cause the fastest evolution, however you may find winter to be a challenge on raw, especially for the first two years. Sensation really increases, and that includes the sensation of pain as we emerge from the numbness most of us live under. A good all round book is Living Food For Optimum Health by Brian Clement of the Hippocrates Institute.


Metamorphosis must indeed be the highest energy function in human experience. Because metamorphosis demands energy and enzymes and because the body's elimination channels must be free to enable a high degree of detoxification during the changes, it is advisable to not weigh the body down with a lot of heavy cooked food or substance addictions. A "quality" light, raw-sproutarian type diet with superfoods instead of "quantity" is advisable.

Yes, this is exactly why certain arguments fail.

First of all, you can't really make a rational/verbal argument for what is going on at the spirit level because the spirit level is beyond words.

The spirit can translate easily enough. I can communicate with both my Spirit and my Soul, among other things.

This is how I get to muck about in/with the unknown/unseen.

Tenet, what do you think of Pickle's observation that many people don't lose their craving for meat until they cleanse their bodies for awhile first?

And Pickle, can you tell us more about that?

It is just like junk food to me. The same addiction, the same "craving". I don't crave what I eat, I just enjoy how I feel afterwards.

When I mentioned how my digestive system will slow down bigtime, a farmer tells me I just need to get used to eating meat again. Get used to it. Says that I went too long without it.

If I think about this, how many of the foods that are proven good do I need to get used to? I can go 10 years without a banana and will have no problem eating one. Same with veggies.

Most folks will have the craps and runs trying to go from a meat diet to veggie. It will seriously mess them up. They have too much poison in hard storage, when it breaks loose look out. It has to be done slowly to not have negative short term effects.
