Do you think that is possible Plenum? or are you just pointing out the dilemma?
no, I honestly believe such things are possible. There have been stories of Indian 'saints' doing such things. I believe Yogananda writes about it in his Autobiography.
although, I don't know of anyone in my personal circle who is capable of such things.
Well in my way of thinking, it is certainly plausible in states of being that would not be considered physical, as in light being, or higher being. Right?
So it seems that it has more to do with our physical design than our actual choice to eat or not to eat.
There is something about this physical form that involves both need, necessity to nurture the body, and a certain bond to the life and death cycle that necessitates death to continue life. There is some key there that I cannot quite put my finger on.
