In regards to eating meat

[Ankh]

A few weeks ago, I saw a picture of a powerless, young, devastated chicken. One out of thousands in a place where they are "grown" to be killed.

I said damn - enough is enough... and stopped eating meat.
I only lasted for two weeks for the first try, though. I was not craving meat, not at all. But my simple and drastic change to my diet totally messed up my digestion, and I could not do anything about that.

I will approach this once again in the next months. I will not be forcing myself to totally abandon meat, but I never really forced it either. Any suggestions how to keep up a healthy digestion would be appreciated. Not the one where I run to the bathroom every few hours, and not the one where I have nothing on the "output side" for days : D

When you will (or will not) start this journey with the new diet, do not forget respect for the self.

The other portion of healing has to do with forgiveness of self and a greatly heightened respect for the self. This may conveniently be expressed by taking care in dietary matters.

40.14 Questioner: In dietary matters, what would be the foods that one would include and what would be the foods that one would exclude in a general way for the greatest care of one’s bodily complex?

Ra: I am Ra. Firstly, we underline and emphasize that this information is not to be understood literally but as a link or psychological nudge for the body and the mind and spirit. Thus it is the care and respect for the self that is the true thing of importance. In this light we may iterate the basic information given for this instrument’s diet. The vegetables, the fruits, the grains, and to the extent necessary for the individual metabolism, the animal products. These are those substances showing respect for the self.
